WEBVTT

00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:06.480
is the model d minus an a plus or an f

00:00:04.240 --> 00:00:11.519
let's talk about that roll the intro oh we don't

00:00:08.400 --> 00:00:11.519
ShortCircuit

00:00:11.599 --> 00:00:16.400
ShortCircuit let's unbox tech let's

00:00:14.880 --> 00:00:19.439
unbox tech okay let's unbox it for those of the

00:00:18.960 --> 00:00:25.119
know glorious pc gaming race is a fairly new company and they uh

00:00:23.119 --> 00:00:27.439
started making desk pads and mouse pads moved to keyboards and now they're

00:00:26.400 --> 00:00:30.640
making mice they've had good success making

00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:34.960
wired really light mice they have the model o

00:00:33.760 --> 00:00:38.879
the model d uh the distinction the model o is

00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:42.840
ambidextrous the model d is a right-handed mouse this is the

00:00:41.120 --> 00:00:47.520
d-minus so that's right-handed smaller and

00:00:45.520 --> 00:00:50.399
i'm very excited this is a highly anticipated mouse and what's special is

00:00:49.039 --> 00:00:55.280
that it's a reasonable price for the matte version it's 49.99

00:00:53.760 --> 00:00:59.039
and for the glossy version which i really wouldn't want i don't

00:00:57.039 --> 00:01:03.280
want glossy things it's 59 so 10 more that's just a good value for

00:01:02.640 --> 00:01:07.200
a good gaming mouse it's definitely intended

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

00:01:11.600 --> 00:01:18.640
it's 58 grams i believe

00:01:14.880 --> 00:01:21.119
let me check so this mouse is 61 grams

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

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

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

00:01:32.799 --> 00:01:37.759
during the course of the review for the different kinds of glide pads that they

00:01:36.880 --> 00:01:42.560
include which is pretty exciting so in the box

00:01:39.920 --> 00:01:45.920
there's the mouse we have some document teshon a letter

00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:50.159
from shazim muhammad the ceo of glorious i'm

00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:54.159
really glad they took out the master race out of pc glorious

00:01:52.960 --> 00:01:58.159
gaming race for obvious reasons includes a lot of

00:01:56.560 --> 00:02:02.000
stickers which is pretty cool here's the bigger glide pads i was

00:02:00.320 --> 00:02:07.200
mentioning i'm gonna take those out to save them because we're gonna try both

00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:09.119
ooh it's like zeus kind of dude holding

00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:15.200
a mouse a little about gpc gr

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

00:02:16.640 --> 00:02:22.879
the thing so this is a little quick start guide very cool shows you all the

00:02:20.720 --> 00:02:26.239
different RGB modes which we will see later i'll have a little dance party but

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

00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:04.879
travel our most recent episode of carpool critics

00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:08.810
actually one episode ago we talk about tenant which is a movie that

00:03:06.879 --> 00:03:10.159
may or may not have time

00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:13.120
traversal elements

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

00:03:20.080 --> 00:03:26.239
as you can see it comes default with uh these glide pads

00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:29.519
that are patented to glorious they're very smooth i've heard good things about

00:03:27.760 --> 00:03:33.200
them but what i really like is that they actually include extra

00:03:32.080 --> 00:03:36.959
glide this is kind of sweet because the benefit of wired mice is that they can

00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:40.879
be extremely light they don't have to have wireless transmitters or batteries and

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

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.

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

00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:58.480
and so that starts to add to the weight this helps by making the actual mouse

00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:05.200
itself glide smoother which kind of helps enhance the illusion of lightness

00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:09.120
pretty easy you take off the 3m backing man this is the stuff i'm

00:04:06.400 --> 00:04:11.120
so bad at as you can see the blue does come off so

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

00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:18.720
because this one once it's on your mouse pad there's not really that many

00:04:16.239 --> 00:04:23.440
chances for dinks or like damages that would make it less

00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:24.479
smooth let's talk about the physical of

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

00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:33.600
like a 403 or a basilisk shape it's a right-handed

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

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

00:04:39.520 --> 00:04:44.880
shape of the 403 i prefer it's got the six buttons so left right

00:04:43.680 --> 00:04:49.759
mouse click uh back forward it has the middle button

00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:53.360
which i believe is a dpi indicator by default but you can probably reset it in

00:04:51.360 --> 00:04:56.240
the software and then a little dpi indicator on the bottom i've heard a lot

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

00:04:59.280 --> 00:05:05.440
sniping on the fly because you're not gonna take your eyes off the

00:05:02.880 --> 00:05:08.639
screen but uh overall i like the look of it i mean i like honeycomb

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

00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:19.759
mouse i'm not a huge fan of putting the the pc the gpcgr

00:05:17.840 --> 00:05:23.520
mascot on the mouse but it's it's pretty understated so that's totally okay

00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:26.560
there's little grooves in the mouse that helped your fingers sit really well

00:05:24.960 --> 00:05:30.240
which i actually find very comfortable it does feel like the curvature on the

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

00:05:31.520 --> 00:05:36.639
presence in my palm um which the model d does provide

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

00:05:40.400 --> 00:05:46.000
little bit shape but really mice are so much preference really once you break down

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

00:05:49.520 --> 00:05:57.280
pixar 3360 sensor which is considered a flawless sensor it's a little less

00:05:54.080 --> 00:05:59.280
granular than the 3389

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

00:06:01.039 --> 00:06:06.000
000 which is much higher than i hope you use man did

00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:09.600
anything you actually use 12 000 dpi if you do please let me know

00:06:08.960 --> 00:06:13.680
that's a psycho i use 800 like a normal person i

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

00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:21.520
feels good the button switches are the omron d2fc

00:06:20.400 --> 00:06:26.479
f7n 20m 0fs i wrote that down i obviously

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

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

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

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

00:06:39.440 --> 00:06:44.560
[ __ ] about what you think so as per usual i'm gonna load up

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

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

00:06:51.759 --> 00:06:57.680
add macros which i will not do uh you can change the dpi settings

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

00:06:59.039 --> 00:07:03.840
you want it's of increments of 100 which is totally fine

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

00:07:06.319 --> 00:07:11.280
glorious mode which is glorious seamless breathing so kind of

00:07:10.560 --> 00:07:19.919
just like uh flashing through the colors just straight breathing on one color

00:07:14.960 --> 00:07:23.599
uh tail brave

00:07:19.919 --> 00:07:27.360
yeah that's fun wave

00:07:23.599 --> 00:07:30.479
yeah it's okay it's okay and then off

00:07:27.360 --> 00:07:32.080
okay it seems like it's control uh

00:07:30.479 --> 00:07:36.000
it's the same dpi for both which is great because i wanted to compare

00:07:34.080 --> 00:07:37.680
same mouse different glide pads see how that goes and then we're gonna compare

00:07:37.360 --> 00:07:42.319
it to different mice and see how that goes

00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:46.160
oh yeah this feels this feels pretty good i'm actually impressed

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

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

00:07:51.120 --> 00:07:56.560
glide pads let's switch to the non-glide pad see if it's

00:07:54.240 --> 00:08:02.720
quite as smooth oh god uh it's not that different like

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

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

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

00:08:12.240 --> 00:08:18.879
get them but yeah i actually really like the shape of this mouse i'm

00:08:15.680 --> 00:08:20.479
kind of digging it oh maybe i maybe i

00:08:18.879 --> 00:08:23.440
will go back to wired mice this feels good it feels fast i can like

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

00:08:27.120 --> 00:08:31.919
mouse feels really good i'm just kind of surprised i don't usually

00:08:30.160 --> 00:08:35.680
like wired mice usually i find the cable gets in the way or i'm

00:08:34.560 --> 00:08:38.880
just like yeah but this shape feels good the buttons

00:08:37.839 --> 00:08:45.279
feel good i i do like honeycomb mice oh i'm dead

00:08:42.159 --> 00:08:46.240
yeah this is better than i expected

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

00:08:49.279 --> 00:08:54.640
showcase it remind you how great it is great my teammates are awesome

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

00:08:56.160 --> 00:09:00.959
oh oh yeah here we go oh buddy here we

00:08:59.440 --> 00:09:07.440
go get out of here donkey

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

00:09:08.800 --> 00:09:15.040
shrek everybody press f in the chat oh he's

00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:18.160
he didn't make his face mean at all i feel kind of bad now

00:09:16.560 --> 00:09:21.760
so i want to compare it to some other top-end mice that are much more

00:09:19.839 --> 00:09:25.360
expensive and see how it compares all right so the first

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

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

00:09:33.200 --> 00:09:38.080
shape of it feels comfortable more comfortable than the g pro to me

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

00:09:42.720 --> 00:09:49.440
i like the feel of the matte plastic so far

00:09:45.920 --> 00:09:50.800
on the model d minus definitely better

00:09:49.440 --> 00:09:57.440
this one feels a little cheaper this one's pretty good

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

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

00:10:03.519 --> 00:10:09.760
then the model d minus it just doesn't feel as

00:10:07.440 --> 00:10:12.880
like refined also these side buttons are like really

00:10:10.640 --> 00:10:17.120
small that's a 403 and that's what i'm used to and so

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

00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:23.680
to miss some button clicks

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

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

00:10:30.160 --> 00:10:34.880
looking at it with a critical eye not a huge fan of the viper ultimate

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

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

00:10:40.560 --> 00:10:47.600
desk it's great it's pretty expensive i think it's like what 199 159

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

00:10:49.040 --> 00:10:56.480
have a comparison the d minus feels

00:10:53.440 --> 00:10:58.320
not cheap for how good of a price it is

00:10:56.480 --> 00:11:02.640
i'm impressed the plastics feel good the shape is is good it's ergonomic

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

00:11:04.800 --> 00:11:09.279
let's go to the g pro and see how that feels

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

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

00:11:17.600 --> 00:11:21.839
long periods but it's really good plastic it's really

00:11:20.640 --> 00:11:26.640
light it's uh everything i could hope for in a mouse buttons always feel good

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

00:11:28.880 --> 00:11:33.360
mice and yes it is feels great g pro's gold standard

00:11:32.079 --> 00:11:39.920
remains gold standard but at like triple the price

00:11:36.720 --> 00:11:41.279
next up is the 403 this is the wired 403

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

00:11:44.640 --> 00:11:51.120
a lot heavier than uh i remember after handling all these super light mice

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

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

00:11:56.639 --> 00:12:02.160
has one and he gave it to his girlfriend because all the plastic kind of started

00:11:59.920 --> 00:12:05.360
rubbing off but again this is a pretty gold standard mouse

00:12:03.360 --> 00:12:09.200
logitech makes very high end products for a decent price

00:12:06.560 --> 00:12:12.560
i do like the cable on the model oh actually better it feels lighter

00:12:10.720 --> 00:12:15.839
like with snag lists and the 403 it's a little more textured and hard

00:12:14.560 --> 00:12:19.519
and it would give me resistance i feel like if the stars line poorly and this

00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:22.880
caught on something this would give me a lot more trouble than the model d minus

00:12:21.519 --> 00:12:28.720
so if you're going wired i'd actually recommend this or the d

00:12:25.680 --> 00:12:30.880
over it should you get a model d minus

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

00:12:33.200 --> 00:12:39.040
absolutely this is an awesome mouse i'm actually going to take it home

00:12:36.399 --> 00:12:42.639
and take it for a longer spin i'm super excited to play

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

00:12:44.639 --> 00:12:50.240
great shape the buttons feel good overall this is an excellent mouse but

00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:52.880
mice are so much preference so let me know in the comments is this the

00:12:51.440 --> 00:12:55.839
kind of mouse you like do you like ambidextrous mice do you like big mice

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

00:12:59.519 --> 00:13:04.560
i used to do it with my g9x thank you so much for watching if you

00:13:02.639 --> 00:13:07.680
want to watch more ShortCircuit there's plenty but you can watch me in

00:13:06.240 --> 00:13:10.959
the previous video what review the mouse with a fan in it

00:13:10.639 --> 00:13:16.800
uh get my thoughts or check me out on carpool critics where i talk about

00:13:14.399 --> 00:13:20.880
movies with james and riley and have a hella good time
