1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:06,480
is the model d minus an a plus or an f

2
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:11,519
let's talk about that roll the intro oh we don't

3
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:11,519
ShortCircuit

4
00:00:11,599 --> 00:00:16,400
ShortCircuit let's unbox tech let's

5
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:19,439
unbox tech okay let's unbox it for those of the

6
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:25,119
know glorious pc gaming race is a fairly new company and they uh

7
00:00:23,119 --> 00:00:27,439
started making desk pads and mouse pads moved to keyboards and now they're

8
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:30,640
making mice they've had good success making

9
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:34,960
wired really light mice they have the model o

10
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:38,879
the model d uh the distinction the model o is

11
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:42,840
ambidextrous the model d is a right-handed mouse this is the

12
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:47,520
d-minus so that's right-handed smaller and

13
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:50,399
i'm very excited this is a highly anticipated mouse and what's special is

14
00:00:49,039 --> 00:00:55,280
that it's a reasonable price for the matte version it's 49.99

15
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:59,039
and for the glossy version which i really wouldn't want i don't

16
00:00:57,039 --> 00:01:03,280
want glossy things it's 59 so 10 more that's just a good value for

17
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:07,200
a good gaming mouse it's definitely intended

18
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:14,880
for more of a shooter crowd there's the six buttons on the mouse that's it

19
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:18,640
it's 58 grams i believe

20
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:21,119
let me check so this mouse is 61 grams

21
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:25,840
and the larger one is a seven grams more at 68. the glossy one's a gram heavier

22
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:30,880
but like i said i don't want glossy so i'm gonna base this off of the matte one

23
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:34,799
they sent us a black one and a white one and i will use both of these

24
00:01:32,799 --> 00:01:37,759
during the course of the review for the different kinds of glide pads that they

25
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:42,560
include which is pretty exciting so in the box

26
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:45,920
there's the mouse we have some document teshon a letter

27
00:01:45,439 --> 00:01:50,159
from shazim muhammad the ceo of glorious i'm

28
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:54,159
really glad they took out the master race out of pc glorious

29
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:58,159
gaming race for obvious reasons includes a lot of

30
00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:02,000
stickers which is pretty cool here's the bigger glide pads i was

31
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:07,200
mentioning i'm gonna take those out to save them because we're gonna try both

32
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:09,119
ooh it's like zeus kind of dude holding

33
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:15,200
a mouse a little about gpc gr

34
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:18,239
more stuff i love stuff i hate when you open a box and it's just like

35
00:02:16,640 --> 00:02:22,879
the thing so this is a little quick start guide very cool shows you all the

36
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:26,239
different RGB modes which we will see later i'll have a little dance party but

37
00:02:24,879 --> 00:02:31,200
i don't want to read that i would way rather have someone read this stuff to me just like our

going to unbox the other one so we can compare speaking of time

45
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:04,879
travel our most recent episode of carpool critics

46
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:08,810
actually one episode ago we talk about tenant which is a movie that

47
00:03:06,879 --> 00:03:10,159
may or may not have time

48
00:03:10,159 --> 00:03:13,120
traversal elements

49
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:22,560
oh yeah i'm not gonna go any further because it's probably all the same stuff white and black

50
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:26,239
as you can see it comes default with uh these glide pads

51
00:03:24,159 --> 00:03:29,519
that are patented to glorious they're very smooth i've heard good things about

52
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:33,200
them but what i really like is that they actually include extra

53
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:36,959
glide this is kind of sweet because the benefit of wired mice is that they can

54
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,879
be extremely light they don't have to have wireless transmitters or batteries and

55
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:47,360
so generally a good light corded mouse will be super light this is 60 whereas like a

56
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:51,280
g pro which is maybe the best is 80 or like a viper ultimate it's like 74.

57
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:55,760
if you're dragging that around sure the mouse is light but you're also dragging a cord around

58
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:58,480
and so that starts to add to the weight this helps by making the actual mouse

59
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:05,200
itself glide smoother which kind of helps enhance the illusion of lightness

60
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:09,120
pretty easy you take off the 3m backing man this is the stuff i'm

61
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:11,120
so bad at as you can see the blue does come off so

62
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:14,720
that's fine i think it's meant to protect it keep it as smooth as possible

63
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:18,720
because this one once it's on your mouse pad there's not really that many

64
00:04:16,239 --> 00:04:23,440
chances for dinks or like damages that would make it less

65
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:24,479
smooth let's talk about the physical of

66
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:29,919
the mouse i'm going to choose the white one because it's probably a little easier to see it's a good little mouse it's kind of

67
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:33,600
like a 403 or a basilisk shape it's a right-handed

68
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:37,919
mount so it curves so that your hand can kind of fit a little more comfortably and that's

69
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:40,960
actually what i prefer i use a 403 at home the g pro is a better mouse but the

70
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:44,880
shape of the 403 i prefer it's got the six buttons so left right

71
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:49,759
mouse click uh back forward it has the middle button

72
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:53,360
which i believe is a dpi indicator by default but you can probably reset it in

73
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:56,240
the software and then a little dpi indicator on the bottom i've heard a lot

74
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:59,840
of people complain that the dpi indicator is on the bottom for people who kind of switch sensitivities for

75
00:04:59,280 --> 00:05:05,440
sniping on the fly because you're not gonna take your eyes off the

76
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:08,639
screen but uh overall i like the look of it i mean i like honeycomb

77
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:12,800
shaped mice they're kind of a pain to clean but it's a good looking overall

78
00:05:10,639 --> 00:05:19,759
mouse i'm not a huge fan of putting the the pc the gpcgr

79
00:05:17,840 --> 00:05:23,520
mascot on the mouse but it's it's pretty understated so that's totally okay

80
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:26,560
there's little grooves in the mouse that helped your fingers sit really well

81
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:30,240
which i actually find very comfortable it does feel like the curvature on the

82
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:33,039
back goes down a little bit so it feels like i kind of want a little more

83
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:36,639
presence in my palm um which the model d does provide

84
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:41,039
overall it's a comfy shape it definitely feels like it's a palm down just clawing the mouse a

85
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:46,000
little bit shape but really mice are so much preference really once you break down

86
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:52,080
the inside of the mouse there's not that much differences anymore the differences come down to the

87
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:57,280
pixar 3360 sensor which is considered a flawless sensor it's a little less

88
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:59,280
granular than the 3389

89
00:05:57,280 --> 00:06:02,240
in that it can only do increments of 100 dpi for settings but it goes up to 12

90
00:06:01,039 --> 00:06:06,000
000 which is much higher than i hope you use man did

91
00:06:04,639 --> 00:06:09,600
anything you actually use 12 000 dpi if you do please let me know

92
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:13,680
that's a psycho i use 800 like a normal person i

93
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:17,840
guess what's normal who cares but otherwise it's a flawless sensor it's light it

94
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:21,520
feels good the button switches are the omron d2fc

95
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:26,479
f7n 20m 0fs i wrote that down i obviously

96
00:06:24,319 --> 00:06:30,160
didn't memorize that d2fc means it's a chinese switch the f means that it's

97
00:06:28,479 --> 00:06:33,680
the lighter actuation force so if it's the chinese ones it's the 60 gram if

98
00:06:31,840 --> 00:06:37,520
it's the japanese one it's the 75 versus kind of 120 or 150. the 20 mil

99
00:06:36,319 --> 00:06:41,360
obviously just means it's ready for 20 mil and the zero f means they give zero

100
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:44,560
[ __ ] about what you think so as per usual i'm gonna load up

101
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:50,080
rainbow six while that's loading up i'm going to load up the model d software

102
00:06:48,319 --> 00:06:52,160
so there there's a lot of options you can change what each button does you can

103
00:06:51,759 --> 00:06:57,680
add macros which i will not do uh you can change the dpi settings

104
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:00,080
yes that's what i want so you can change the settings you can go more granular if

105
00:06:59,039 --> 00:07:03,840
you want it's of increments of 100 which is totally fine

106
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:07,680
there's all the different lighting modes i don't know if they can do it on both at the same time right now we're on

107
00:07:06,319 --> 00:07:11,280
glorious mode which is glorious seamless breathing so kind of

108
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:19,919
just like uh flashing through the colors just straight breathing on one color

109
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:23,599
uh tail brave

110
00:07:19,919 --> 00:07:27,360
yeah that's fun wave

111
00:07:23,599 --> 00:07:30,479
yeah it's okay it's okay and then off

112
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:32,080
okay it seems like it's control uh

113
00:07:30,479 --> 00:07:36,000
it's the same dpi for both which is great because i wanted to compare

114
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,680
same mouse different glide pads see how that goes and then we're gonna compare

115
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:42,319
it to different mice and see how that goes

116
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:46,160
oh yeah this feels this feels pretty good i'm actually impressed

117
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:48,000
uh with the cable managed i taped it to the front so i get just the right amount

118
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:52,080
of slack it just it's really light it feels like i'm flying especially with these extra

119
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:56,560
glide pads let's switch to the non-glide pad see if it's

120
00:07:54,240 --> 00:08:02,720
quite as smooth oh god uh it's not that different like

121
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:06,960
as soon as i'm like not doing anything it doesn't feel that different it's

122
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:09,120
a little less smooth but if you for some reason didn't have the glide pads you're

123
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:14,160
fine i'd say like it's not worth like going out of your way to um

124
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:18,879
get them but yeah i actually really like the shape of this mouse i'm

125
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:20,479
kind of digging it oh maybe i maybe i

126
00:08:18,879 --> 00:08:23,440
will go back to wired mice this feels good it feels fast i can like

127
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:28,720
flick i mean i'm not as accurate because it's not what i'm used to and this is a different setup but this

128
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:31,919
mouse feels really good i'm just kind of surprised i don't usually

129
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:35,680
like wired mice usually i find the cable gets in the way or i'm

130
00:08:34,560 --> 00:08:38,880
just like yeah but this shape feels good the buttons

131
00:08:37,839 --> 00:08:45,279
feel good i i do like honeycomb mice oh i'm dead

132
00:08:42,159 --> 00:08:46,240
yeah this is better than i expected

133
00:08:45,279 --> 00:08:51,279
all right now we're going to play some left 4 dead 2. it's one of my favorite games of all time and i just want to

134
00:08:49,279 --> 00:08:54,640
showcase it remind you how great it is great my teammates are awesome

135
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:59,440
this is great put it on easy so that i didn't have to work very hard

136
00:08:56,160 --> 00:09:00,959
oh oh yeah here we go oh buddy here we

137
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:07,440
go get out of here donkey

138
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:09,440
oh gosh oh that was so easy i'm so glad you guys could join me for the death of

139
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:15,040
shrek everybody press f in the chat oh he's

140
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:18,160
he didn't make his face mean at all i feel kind of bad now

141
00:09:16,560 --> 00:09:21,760
so i want to compare it to some other top-end mice that are much more

142
00:09:19,839 --> 00:09:25,360
expensive and see how it compares all right so the first

143
00:09:23,519 --> 00:09:31,360
comparison i'm gonna do is to the viper ultimate it's the best wireless mouse that razer

144
00:09:29,279 --> 00:09:34,880
makes it's super light 74 grams this mouse has gotten very good reviews i like the

145
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:38,080
shape of it feels comfortable more comfortable than the g pro to me

146
00:09:36,399 --> 00:09:45,519
it's an ambidextrous mouse but the way it curves out i actually really enjoy so let's see how it does

147
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:49,440
i like the feel of the matte plastic so far

148
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:50,800
on the model d minus definitely better

149
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:57,440
this one feels a little cheaper this one's pretty good

150
00:09:55,279 --> 00:09:59,440
yeah i there's like a really textured rubber kind of feel on the side and i

151
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:04,320
think that it wouldn't bother me but after coming off of like i was holding up 403 and

152
00:10:03,519 --> 00:10:09,760
then the model d minus it just doesn't feel as

153
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:12,880
like refined also these side buttons are like really

154
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:17,120
small that's a 403 and that's what i'm used to and so

155
00:10:14,399 --> 00:10:21,440
going from this to this that's fine but this to this this feels like i'm going

156
00:10:18,399 --> 00:10:23,680
to miss some button clicks

157
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:26,720
i'll use that recoil i guess i'll blame the recoil actually i'll blame the mouse

158
00:10:25,519 --> 00:10:32,079
i thought i would like this mouse more i've used it a couple times and i've liked it but now that i'm actually

159
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:34,880
looking at it with a critical eye not a huge fan of the viper ultimate

160
00:10:33,519 --> 00:10:38,560
all right next we're going to do the g pro wireless it's the gold standard

161
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:41,279
it's i think whatever wireless mouse wishes it could be uh i use it at my

162
00:10:40,560 --> 00:10:47,600
desk it's great it's pretty expensive i think it's like what 199 159

163
00:10:45,680 --> 00:10:49,920
149 us but first i'm going to play a little more with the d minus just to

164
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:56,480
have a comparison the d minus feels

165
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:58,320
not cheap for how good of a price it is

166
00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:02,640
i'm impressed the plastics feel good the shape is is good it's ergonomic

167
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:05,839
it's comfy the glide pads are awesome cable's light it's a parachute cord but

168
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:09,279
let's go to the g pro and see how that feels

169
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:15,760
oh yeah that's a that's a good mouse so that's a real nice mouse

170
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:18,399
i don't love the shape i find it doesn't feel comfortable in my hand after like

171
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:21,839
long periods but it's really good plastic it's really

172
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:26,640
light it's uh everything i could hope for in a mouse buttons always feel good

173
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:30,160
i mean wireless mics we've done a video on if wireless mice are as good as wired

174
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:33,360
mice and yes it is feels great g pro's gold standard

175
00:11:32,079 --> 00:11:39,920
remains gold standard but at like triple the price

176
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:41,279
next up is the 403 this is the wired 403

177
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:46,800
i use the wireless one but it's my homeboy it feels very comfortable in my hand it feels

178
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:51,120
a lot heavier than uh i remember after handling all these super light mice

179
00:11:48,959 --> 00:11:54,639
i do like the way that the palm comes a little bit higher the plastic does feel

180
00:11:52,959 --> 00:11:58,160
very good i've heard stories of it kind of wearing off like i know edsel has

181
00:11:56,639 --> 00:12:02,160
has one and he gave it to his girlfriend because all the plastic kind of started

182
00:11:59,920 --> 00:12:05,360
rubbing off but again this is a pretty gold standard mouse

183
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:09,200
logitech makes very high end products for a decent price

184
00:12:06,560 --> 00:12:12,560
i do like the cable on the model oh actually better it feels lighter

185
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:15,839
like with snag lists and the 403 it's a little more textured and hard

186
00:12:14,560 --> 00:12:19,519
and it would give me resistance i feel like if the stars line poorly and this

187
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,880
caught on something this would give me a lot more trouble than the model d minus

188
00:12:21,519 --> 00:12:28,720
so if you're going wired i'd actually recommend this or the d

189
00:12:25,680 --> 00:12:30,880
over it should you get a model d minus

190
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:35,279
if you like the shape uh and you like honeycomb mice if you're into wired mice

191
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:39,040
absolutely this is an awesome mouse i'm actually going to take it home

192
00:12:36,399 --> 00:12:42,639
and take it for a longer spin i'm super excited to play

193
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:46,320
with this more the the glide pads make it so smooth it feels so light it's a

194
00:12:44,639 --> 00:12:50,240
great shape the buttons feel good overall this is an excellent mouse but

195
00:12:48,399 --> 00:12:52,880
mice are so much preference so let me know in the comments is this the

196
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:55,839
kind of mouse you like do you like ambidextrous mice do you like big mice

197
00:12:54,720 --> 00:13:01,120
do you like heavy mice are you one of those people that puts extra weights in their mouse i mean

198
00:12:59,519 --> 00:13:04,560
i used to do it with my g9x thank you so much for watching if you

199
00:13:02,639 --> 00:13:07,680
want to watch more ShortCircuit there's plenty but you can watch me in

200
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:10,959
the previous video what review the mouse with a fan in it

201
00:13:10,639 --> 00:13:16,800
uh get my thoughts or check me out on carpool critics where i talk about

202
00:13:14,399 --> 00:13:20,880
