Overview

The Glorious MODEL O 2 PRO 4k/8kHz Edition is an ambidextrous gaming mouse that pushes the boundaries of weight and responsiveness. At just 57 grams, it's one of the lightest wireless mice on the market, yet it packs a 4000Hz wireless polling rate (8000Hz when wired) and a Glorious BAMF 2.0 26K optical sensor capable of 26000 DPI. This combination makes it a serious contender for competitive gamers who demand every millisecond of latency reduction. Battery life is rated at up to 80 hours at 1000Hz polling, dropping to 35 hours at 4000Hz — still enough for several days of heavy use. The included 2-meter USB-A to C cable serves both charging and zero-latency wired operation. With its honeycomb shell design and matte black finish, the mouse feels both sturdy and airy in hand.

Connectivity & Compatibility

The MODEL O 2 PRO supports dual connectivity: 2.4GHz wireless via the included nano receiver (stored inside the mouse) and wired USB-C. The receiver is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux out of the box — no driver installation required for basic pointing. For advanced features like polling rate adjustment, DPI profiles, and button remapping, you'll need to install the Glorious Core software (available for Windows and macOS). The mouse uses a standard USB-C port, so any USB-C cable can be used for charging or wired mode.

Product Info

Released in late 2023, the Glorious MODEL O 2 PRO 4k/8kHz Edition sits in the mid-to-high-end segment of the gaming mouse market. It competes directly with other ultralight esports mice such as the Razer Viper V2 Pro and Logitech G Pro X Superlight. The package includes the mouse, 2.4GHz receiver, USB-A to C cable, and quick-start guide. In Japan, it's sold as an official authorized product with a 2-year warranty. The mouse is available through major retailers like Japan.

Best Use Cases

Competitive FPS and battle royale players: The 57g weight and 4000Hz wireless polling rate provide near-instantaneous cursor response, giving you an edge in fast-paced aiming duels. The lightweight design reduces fatigue during long tournaments. However, if you prefer a heavier mouse for stability, this may feel too light. Gamers with long play sessions: The extended battery life (up to 80 hours at 1000Hz) means you can game for days without recharging. The low weight also minimizes wrist strain. Note that the mouse lacks RGB lighting, so if you want customizable LEDs, look elsewhere. * Ambidextrous users: The symmetrical shape works for both left- and right-handed users, though side buttons are only on the left side. The design accommodates claw, fingertip, and palm grips well. If you need buttons on both sides, consider a different model.
