Glorious Model D 2 Wirelesschat_bubble_outlineFrom real comments

The shape and button layout win people over. Multiple commenters single out the ergonomic feel, side button placement, and overall shape as standout strengths, with some calling it 'perfect' for their grip and use case. Users switching from Logitech, Razer, or SteelSeries products note the buttons feel precise and well-positioned. The lightweight build is appreciated for fast movement in games, though a few found even 68g no longer counts as truly ultralight by current standards.

Quality control problems appear repeatedly across units. Several buyers report broken switches out of the box, mushy or unregistered clicks, and mice that stopped working entirely within days or weeks. One user cycled through three units with different defects each time. Others describe click registration delays of 300-400ms or clicks failing roughly 1 in 20-30 presses, leading some to abandon the brand entirely after previously loving earlier Glorious mice.

Software and wireless reliability draw persistent complaints. Glorious Core is frequently called buggy, poorly designed, or requiring admin mode to function, with some saying it lags years behind Logitech's G HUB. Wireless-specific issues include dropped connections, USB transmitters dying after months of use, and standby battery drain that a new Core 2.0 update reportedly only partially fixes. A few users, however, report zero software problems and success on other Glorious wireless models.
