Glorious Model O 2 Wireless

Lightweight Without Holes

The Model O 2 Wireless continues the lineage that made Glorious famous, but it ditches the honeycomb shell of the original for a solid body while still landing at roughly 68 grams. PC Gamer confirmed it 'feels nice and light in hand at 68g,' a figure that puts it competitive with mice costing far more. RTINGS, in its full review, praised the 'remarkable raw performance overall' and described the symmetrical shape as a safe, broadly comfortable design that suits palm, claw and fingertip grips. For players who found the holey originals off-putting, the solid-shell Model O 2 delivers the same low weight without the texture or hygiene concerns.

Sensor and Tracking Performance

Inside sits the BAMF 2.0 sensor, a tuned PixArt PAW3395 capable of 26,000 CPI and a 650 IPS maximum tracking speed. RTINGS measured 'superb tracking accuracy' and called the mouse 'an excellent FPS gaming mouse overall,' which is the headline result for a $100 wireless mouse. TechPowerUp's deep technical review reached a similar conclusion on raw sensor behavior, noting clean tracking with no smoothing or angle snapping artifacts. In practice the sensor is not the limiting factor — it tracks as cleanly as mice twice the price, and the differences only emerge in latency-sensitive competitive scenarios.

Reviewers also stress that the BAMF 2.0 is a fully modern flagship-class sensor rather than a budget part, which is part of why the Model O 2 Wireless punches above its price. TechPowerUp's testing found no sensor smoothing across the CPI range and a wireless motion delay differential of around 0.5 ms, though it flagged unstable polling and significant CPI deviation; PC Gamer noted it 'is super competitive compared to other wireless gaming mice' that cost $130-150. The practical upshot is that aim and tracking feel identical to a premium mouse; the only place the price shows is in the click-latency and polling-rate figures, not in how cleanly the cursor follows your hand.

Battery and Connectivity

Glorious rates the Model O 2 Wireless at up to 110 hours over its 2.4GHz dongle and up to 210 hours over Bluetooth 5.2 with lighting off, figures that comfortably outlast a typical week of play between charges. The mouse charges over USB-C and pairs over both 2.4GHz and Bluetooth, giving it more day-to-day versatility than the Bluetooth-less Razer flagships in this guide. The trade-off, which RTINGS flagged, is that the wireless click latency is higher than several competing mice at this price point, so the connectivity convenience comes with a small competitive penalty.

Buttons, Build and Software

The main buttons have been redesigned with framing ledges that locate your fingers and reduce side-to-side travel, and they use Glorious switches rated for 80 million clicks. Build quality is solid with no creak or flex in testing, and the Glorious Core software is widely regarded as clean and capable for remapping, CPI stages and lighting. Reviewers consistently note the package feels more premium than its price suggests. The one caveat is that the mouse ships at 1000Hz polling and does not include the 4K/8K HyperPolling dongle that the Razer Viper V3 Pro bundles.

Caps at 1000Hz where the Viper reaches 8000

The Model O 2 Wireless is excellent value, but it is not a no-compromise esports tool. RTINGS specifically cautioned that it 'isn't well-suited for competitive play due to its wireless click latency being higher than many competing mice at this price point.' It also caps at 1000Hz polling out of the box, where the Razer Viper V3 Pro reaches 8000Hz, and Tom's Guide acknowledged 'a few shortcomings' even while recommending it. Players chasing the lowest possible latency and the highest polling rates for ranked FPS will feel the gap; everyone else likely will not.

The right choice under 100 dollars, per Tom's Guide

Buy the Model O 2 Wireless if you want a light, accurate, comfortable symmetrical wireless mouse and you care about value. Tom's Guide put it plainly: 'if you're looking for a gaming mouse for under $100, this one would be the right choice.' It is ideal for casual and mid-level competitive players, for anyone stepping up from a wired or budget wireless mouse, and for those who want Bluetooth flexibility. Dedicated esports competitors who want the absolute lowest latency and 8000Hz polling should spend up for the Razer Viper V3 Pro or Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 instead.
