MODEL O 2 & MODEL I 2 MICE PRE-ORDER GUIDE

Product News

Oct 31 2022

11/23/2022 UPDATE: Pre-orders have now closed.

Due to a quality assurance issue that arose during mass production of the mice, our team needs additional time to adjust the issue with the supplier. In order to make sure you receive the best product possible, the new window for shipment is January to late February, approximately.

Because of this, we have disabled Pre Orders for now, until we know the exact shipping date for the second batch of mice.

We want to extend our apologies for delaying the shipment. Our goal is to provide you with the best customer experience we can offer, so adjusting our delivery window guarantees your new mouse meets our top-tier Glorious standards.

If you have questions about your order, please reach out directly to our Customer Support team. We appreciate your patience, and we look forward to getting these mice in your hands!

We want to give a huge thank you to the Glorious community who placed an order for the new generation of our gaming mice.

USABILITY

Q: How do I maximize Model O 2 Wireless and Model I 2 Wireless’s battery life to reach the stated 210-hour mark?

A: The 210-hour battery life can be achieved with lighting turned off while the mouse is in Bluetooth 5.2 LE wireless mode. Factors like the chosen wireless mode and lighting brightness will impact battery performance.
