Glorious Model i2 wireless review - terrible battery but...
40Prawn here with my thoughts on the Glorious Model I2 Wireless. This is a wireless version of a mouse that I've reviewed previously and frankly liked. These mice are similar to the Logitech G502 X in their shape, but are lightweight and pack some potentially interesting specs that make them worth considering. Possibly?
Features include:
Right handed ergonomic design suited to claw or palm grip.
9 programmable buttons with a layout suited to MMO/MOBA
Modular button setup that lets you change the style/design of two of the side buttons
A battery life promise of upto 210 hours (Bluetooth) or 110 hours (wireless) but with RGB off
75gram body and slick feel
Bluetooth 5.2 LE, 2.4 GHz wireless or USB-C connec tions
"split" main buttons, with custom Glorious Switches rated to 80 million clicks
Highlights for me include:
- Comfortable fit in hand
- Easy access buttons
- Customisable buttons at hardware level
- Masses of buttons and the option to program an extra layer in the software
Lowlights:
- USB-C cable is stupid
- Battery life is terrible with RGB on
