NZXT has kept this mouses weight impressively low.

At 57g, this is much lighter than some of thebest wireless gaming miceon the market.

The DeathAdder V3 Hyperspeed does have NZXT beat with its own 55g form factor, though.

That weight is generally well distributed, though a little front-heavy.

This is why NZXTs approach to polling is exemplary.

This is a particularly low price for a gaming mouse that can poll at 4,000Hz wirelessly.

Under each main click, NZXT has opted for TTC Optical switches with 60gF of actuation force.

Actually setting up these keybindings can get a little tedious.

NZXT has assured me that an update to the program is in the works to fix the bug.

Theres one omission to this feature list that puts Gloriouss competitor out in front, and thats Bluetooth.

In truth, it didnt make much of a difference to the way I play.

Still, the cheaper Razer Viper V3 Hyperspeed even does away with wired connectivity further down the price scale.

Battery life sits pretty strong at 70 hours with a 1,000Hz polling rate in play.

The skates arent as super-smooth as those of theAlienwarePro Wireless.

The side buttons take a smidge longer to reach due to their higher placement on the body than some.

At the end of the day, though, I had a blast with this pointer.

The sensor keeps up with the action particularly well, never jittering over smoother tracking surfaces.

There was a little more resistance to smaller mouse movements than Im used to with more premium pointers.

The main clicks feel particularly energetic, though.

One strange behavior kept coming up in my testing, though, particularly in the first week.

I was regularly misclicking the right main button.

Its not something I come up against in other gaming mice, so my grip isnt to blame.

The switches themselves never felt super-sensitive during regular gameplay, so its not a case of low actuation pressure.

Move in a certain way and they accidentally hit the switch.

Glorious Model O 2 Mini…

This generally only happens with slanted designs, though, and I cantseeany heavy gradient in this form factor.
