if you want to take on the most popular gaming mouse in the entire world you
better bring your glorious game and that's exactly what uh glorious hopes to
be doing this is the model I gaming mouse which is the direct competitor to
the 502 and also the Razer basilisk uh
I'm really excited to see this mouse it is spec-wise better than the 502 I think
glorious construction quality is quite high if you guys don't know who they are
they the maker boxes that are hard to open oh
yeah I'm actually very excited to see
what this mouse is all about I think more glorious has been on quite a good
stretch of making very exciting mice especially their Wireless mice they've
made them very light they're honeycomb which isn't my favorite thing but the
build quality has been good they've looked good the durability apparently
has been quite excellent so let's uh let's unbox this bad boy so right off
the bat this plastic quality is it's not
it's not bad it feels like slightly cheap it feels like razor quality you
know it's light it's definitely noticeably lighter than I remember the
502 being I'm going to save the direct comparisons for a little bit later uh
the shape is excellent if this is a a mouse shape that I think is there's a
reason why it's so popular it fits really well into a right hand it used to
be a mouse that I really liked but I kind of like my thumb to touch the table
just to have a little more kind of awareness of how fast I'm moving but for
productivity uh and I think for most Gamers this is still just such a classic
comfortable shape the scroll wheel I will say feels pretty far forward like
if you were a claw person you're going to have a little bit of trouble getting
to that uh that scroll wheel other buttons on this Mouse uh there's a DPI
and now a DPI down button so they've increased that from one button to two
buttons which is nice not a it's like a nice to have not a not a must have cuz
there's only usually like five settings at your scen rrolling through anyway on
the side they have more buttons more is
always better right uh and two of them are replaceable I'm not sure exactly how
that works they included buttons that we'll kind of get to uh over there on
the bottom we have the PTFE premium G
skates uh I like that they come with a little sticker on them cuz then you know
they're not damaged they're fresh baby so overall shape excellent build quality
feels good it feels strong like I can I'm squeezing it really hard I don't
feel that much the clickiness feels good it's the Glorious switches that are made
in collaboration with kale uh they're rated for 80 million clicks which uh on
paper seems 30 million clicks better than most switches especially the ones
on the Logitech the the ones that have bad reputation so what we're going to do
for the rest of the video is we're going to count 280 million 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1
2 3 4 5 6 7 8 we got that paracord it's
it feels good it's got that kind of like Loosey feel so it doesn't feel like it would get snagged on stuff oh that's
real long 2 m cable that's plenty long
and it's it's a good quality cable it's not like the nicest one I've ever felt
um it's kind of like a little Bunchy in
some spots but that's fine you can you can fix that okay so uh in the actual
box the top is cardboard
plastic then there's another plastic cover that comes off and then you have a
little bit of documentation we have the quick start guide and I'm guessing
probably woring info safety everyone knows those mice
are real dangerous and then you have some of the swappable buttons and the
sticker cool stier woo
sticker um so we got all these side
buttons okay so we have all these swappable side buttons and apparently
all of them are swappable which is pretty cool no well I definitely scratched it
it really was just a
magnet oh man I didn't believe them okay magnets
are expansive it's really freaking magnetic though am I just what's wrong
with me it wasn't supposed to be like this it was supposed to be easy David at
least you know when your game is not going to come up that's a good point it
would be annoying if they were really Loosey Goosey manness and like anytime you like lifted and pulled it was in
danger of just flying off oh okay someone should come and try and take it
off and see if it's really easy I'm just that dumb maybe this one doesn't come
out I I think it said all six wait no
but it said six oh it's six replaceable buttons only two of them oh only two of
them are
okay that's really confusing to be
honest yeah so oh I got it nice you're
amazing jonno to clarify there's two buttons on the mouse that are swappable
but they include six replaceable buttons that makes sense there's only four six
David numbers numbers okay the difference is at least
on the top ones is just how far the buttons will stick out from the mouse so
there's like the short like the smallest one to the tallest one I'm guessing
that's a comfort thing so on the bigger buttons it looks like it's kind of the
same thing just two different size buttons different shapes and then a
cover the g52 is not quite as customizable it's more software
programmable it has lots of buttons on it to be honest though jonno I'm not
100% sure it's been a little while since I've used a 502 on the regular so why
don't we unbox it and do a pretty much direct comparison okay so immediately
you can see that they're pretty similar although they are more different than I
had in my head the g502 feels a little
more narrow um so there's less like
volume here and you're kind of your fourth finger and your pinky finger kind
of squeeze a little bit tighter I don't know if one's better or worse I think it
it's just a comfort thing I much prefer closed shells to these honeycomb design
but the sacrifice when you compare the two mice wow the weight is wild the
Glorious Mouse uh is
69 GRS uh they say there's a variance of
like one or two grams uh we're seeing 72 G I think if I moved it a bit move the
cable off 71 it's not so nice nice 127
that is significantly more not quite double but we're approaching double the
weight so the weight difference is already quite extensive and before you
comment with your I like heavy mice things great I'm glad you do I don't I
think if you're very competitive in the shooters and you would see that with most Esports Pros it's a lot easier to
be consistent on flick and moves with a letter Mouse also fatigue is a real
thing uh repetitive strain injuries with letter mous are less severe you're not
moving as much around but for us less
intense people the weight's not a huge difference like if uh if a pro had a 502
and you had a G Pro X super light they're still going to beat you glorious
has had some really enticing mice uh that have caught my eye and this might
be a really good Mouse for streaming my
streaming computer although I much prefer Wireless mice that being said
they they said they are looking into maybe doing a wireless variant of this
mouse Mouse although that's to be determined so they have made no promises
but again like I said this is the most popular mouse in the world for a reason
it is a comfortable Mouse although I will say I think that this model I is
slightly more comfortable there's 11 buttons so there's two on the side like
where the three would be over here they have a DPI switch the lock and then the
two main buttons as well as the scroll wheel button so it's pretty similar in
terms of buttons they really looked at the 502 and we're like we're going to
copy that homework going to make it just different enough that people don't get mad Let's uh let's look at the colors
and then we can plug it in and try it uh There's a sticky note on this one so I'm
guessing this is the one that is the production models these might have been
engineering samples so I'll actually when we do the testing I'll do this one
oh interesting surprisingly all the buttons are still black on the white
variant of the mouse so if you're into kind of a more poppy white and black
aesthetic not just white RGB look this
could be a good thing for you let me check if the buttons are black yeah the
buttons they included are also black I
don't like that I don't like that at all uh I think that was a mistake we'll see
when the RGB is on you can see there's an RGB light strip here maybe it'll like
make it pop more but I think it makes it look cheaper than the black variant what
do you guys think tell me in the comments below I'm reading them now
huhs click this link I'm there for real
I'm going to switch the buttons on the white one cuz that's the production model uh for the testing but the other
thing that's included is the Glorious grip tape this I probably wouldn't use
on most mice but I'm kind of considering seeing how it feels on this one to see
if I cover up the honeycomb how that would
feel oh that was that was the
worst okay all right that's not what I
expected at all you can see that it sort of has a carbon fiber look but it's a
jelly silicone feel it is interesting
I'm going to put it just on the back cuz I want to see what it feels like when
the honeycomb is covered up surprisingly
I don't hate it I thought I would absolutely despise this I'm going to
finish putting everything on it I have to say I kind of like it it's it gives the
whole thing a slightly like rubbery feel it's not
ideal but it does feel better than kind of like a crappy textured plastic I like
it better than what was on there and I certainly like it better than the
honeycomb shape all right let's plug
this bad boy in and see how it performs
right after I tell you about our sponsor goie Go's Glide hexalite panels can
display six colors each at one time allowing for beautiful color combos and
effects thanks to their RGB I technology an enhancement from normal RGB the kit
includes 10 panels and can be sorted into different shapes and patterns keep
your gaming sessions and parties vibrant and well lit with reactive music modes
they also offer handsfree voice control through Alexa and Google assistant so
you can focus on the task at hand while changing it up on the Fly click on the
link in the video description to get your goie hexel lights today okay we
have the Glorious core software installed and so let's take a little bit
of time and see what we can customize oh wow that RGB looks pretty good we've got
the light strips on on the side then the
mouse wheel has two sides of RGB that looks pretty decent uh I still don't
like the black buttons against it but uh
that is quite argea and the fact that I can see it so well in studio lights
means that I could probably uh really see it in a dark room I it shows up
there it is it's the wrong color that it'sit this is beta software so I'm not
going to worry too much about that you can import export profiles we going have
to change our lighting seamless breathing we got all the different kinds of RGB modes key binding left button
right button DPI stage up stage down I
actually Wonder for me the the competitive game I played the most was
Rainbow 6 so I actually switched my DPI switch button to be my middle click cuz
I didn't like having my to bring my button up there and on this mouse
because the scroll scroll wheel is so far forward I actually might make these
a middle click so let's see how I can do that I can't oh wait no I can thank
goodness we can see on the side scroll
click sh DPI lock I do not want that especially now
that I don't have a DPI button I generally make that my back button and
as I've lost my back button let's do
that uh so while we're here we can talk about the bamp sensor that uh is
glorious' first collaboration with pixart uh so this is going to be a
Flawless sensor 19,000 DPI although that
level of sensitivity is not what you want uh I set mine down at 800 most
people kind of around, 1600 3200 um but
as should be Flawless uh there's no liftoff sensors that are included in
that but it it should be fine I have a feeling this is going to be an excellent
mousing experience it's certainly very smooth with the PTFE feet the pulling
rate is 1,000 HZ that's pretty standard there is higher pulling rate wired mice
but uh that definitely hasn't become the norm yet and it's still kind of uh
novelty item uh also let's check out the
performance tab oh that's cool so as you can see on the bottom you can set the
DPI stage to a color I think that's actually a pretty good system instead of
having like four LEDs that show you which stage you've selected it's a color
that's really smart but I'm pretty pretty confident pretty ready to go
feeling good feeling pretty so let's uh let's take this into aim lab and see how
it feels it's me from the future and I
have a message recording screen capture on a laptop sometimes don't work and so
we're going to do it again where I play a Labs but on a better computer and
hopefully we don't have any issues right away this feels pretty freaking smooth
oh it feels like I could probably flick fairly consistency once I practiced and
dialed in my settings yeah the Glide pads feel really good the weight feels
good the shape feels decent uh like I said earlier really earlier now that
we've time traveled I like to have my thumb on the table but that's okay this
isn't like my preferred Mouse shape but I could definitely get used to this and
I could definitely uh get decent with it the one
C is always the mouse cord even there I could feel it it's not a big deal if you
have a bungee you can sort of uh figure it out but who wants a bungee when you
can Skydive you like my other joke the
previous joke I made in the past editor roll the previous joke I probably could
bunge it but uh I don't play Destiny who needs bunge yeah uh I am very pleased
with the performance of this mouse as I lift off as I move it uh it feels really
solid I think the clicks feel excellent overall this is a very very I'm having a
very positive experience let's see if that holds up this is it's still a good
Mouse but it's also like can you hear
that it's cuz it's heavy it's the mouse that's the mouse wheel I think just
going against itself I I don't have enough time to really test the sensors
see if it's like one's better than the other but on paper they're very similar
uh they're both Flawless sensors so I am
having a hard time seeing why you would want a 502 yeah this is the 502 is still
a good Mouse I don't like that jiggle I don't like the weight uh but other than
that it's still like it's still good I think the the button placement and size
I might like a little bit better on the 502 than on the model I but for my
concluding thoughts let me go back to the past there's a lot of reasons to be
really excited about the model I including the fact that it's $10 cheaper
than a 502 502 not on sale is 80 bucks
uh the model I is $69 nice
$59 what that's actually a really good deal
this this is an incredible value at $59 this is an excellent gaming mouse if if
you are someone that is fine with a cable and that's your budget this you
could do much much much worse is this amouse that I'm going to switch to
probably not I am a huge believer in Wireless mice just because the cable is
just a little bit of a handicap it slows you down it can get caught in stuff it
makes it just like a a little bit less of a good experience and if glorious
made a wireless variant it would be an even better option I would check them
out at the link below if you are interested it's a good Mouse so thank
you for watching this ShortCircuit if you want to watch more Mouse unboxings
there's lots to go through I would recommend the G Pro X super light that
is the gold standard other than that farewell goodbye I'll V saying good
night
