One of the best deals, glad I bought this.

In general, the mouse is solid, but I have only had it for a little over a month, so after a while I may add to my review, but so far everything suits me

Pros
  • Design. Insanely beautiful and comfortable mouse. Whistles and runs like clockwork. What I expected, I got. Suitable for absolutely any grip
Cons
  • The squeak when the backlight is on is a little annoying, it will not be heard in the headphones, but without them it gets on your nerves quite well. I also want to note the left side with an elastic band, when looking at the mouse it seems as if it is moving down, or it just seems to me. Well, the last thing is the braid of the wire, at the base of the mouse it began to peel off a little, but since the wire is removable, I don’t really worry, but the sediment will remain

Upset and disappointed, the product is very bad!

After some time, the side rubber gasket completely fell off, the reason lies in the backlight, if you use a static color for a long time, the backlight starts to noticeably warm up, + heat from the hand itself = the fact that the gasket and the glue on which it is held begin to melt. I use all my devices quite carefully, so this is an extremely design error.

Pros
  • Excellent design, backlight, fits perfectly in the hand, very convenient to use, I'm not a cyber cutlet, but I have no complaints about the sensor.
Cons
  • I have been using it for more than a year, I was very upset by the side pads in less than a month, they are erased like an eraser, pieces of this gum are clogged under the nails and in general often get in the way under the fingers, which is annoying.

Just super, the product is made wonderfully, very satisfied.

I ordered a mouse and when they brought it I noticed that the box was somehow small and practically without inscriptions. Inside there is only a mouse with a braided wire and that's it. This is a simplified package, as explained in the store. I bought it for 4285. A full one will cost almost 1500-2022 more. Be careful when buying and ask the seller what is included in the kit, so that later you won’t be surprised like me. True, the Asus website does not say anything about such a configuration…

Pros
  • The mouse is excellent, it lies comfortably in the hand, the wire is soft, the weight is what I need, the sensor is super, in general it is a pleasure to use.
Cons
  • Not everything is clear with the package.

I am amazed at how well made the product is, just magical!

I switched to this mouse model from the Razer DeathAdder Essential due to constant problems with the sensitivity and response of the scroll. ASUS ROG Gladius II Origin gave me what I wanted from the previous model - accurate scroll response, on every touch. Also, the wheel has a firm landing, which is why there is no "rattle" effect when scrolling. And of course, the main advantage of this model is a replaceable cable and replaceable microphones, and most importantly, separate holes for…

Pros
  • Accurate response of pressing LVM and FDA. Accurate scroll wheel response. Replaceable USB cable, replaceable microphones. The mounting screw holes are not under the Teflon feet! Convenient body shape for a large hand with a "slide" under the palm. Convenient and intuitive customization of mouse buttons in the Armory Crate app. Pleasant, high-quality and matte plastic of the LVM, FDA and the upper part of the mouse body. RGB adjustment, Aura Sync support. Rich equipment.
Cons
  • Button play: LVM, two side switches Forward \ Backward and a central DPI switch button (default). When you touch the side button Forward and the DPI switch button (by default), they spring with a loud sound. Small teflon feet. Rigid and thick braided USB cable. When pressing on the left side pad, a crunch of plastic is heard. Dust and dirt stick well to the side rubber pads. If you bring the mouse to your ear, you can hear the high-frequency squeak of the sensor.

Excellent product, the best quality.

I bought this mouse over a year ago. At first I got used to it for a long time, but then I simply could not switch to any other, and why? She is perfect. When aiming in games (and I most often play shooters) there is no braking, you spend exactly as much as you need. The grip of the hand both completely and "cat" sits perfectly.

Pros
  • It's the perfect mouse for work, surfing and web shooting.
Cons
  • The only drawback is that dirt clings to the Teflon legs. Well, maybe for someone the price.

Satisfied with the product, I recommend it to everyone.

Interesting feature: detachable cable. In general, I am not 100% satisfied with the purchase due to the small size and low weight.

Pros
  • 1. Backlight. 2. Coating material. 3. Rubber pads on the sides. Moreover, the relief of the pads is not very shallow, which prevents the rapid deposition of dirt on the pads. 4. Good management software - Armory Crate. 5. There is no backlash of the main buttons.
Cons
  • 1. Small. More like a teenager's hand. 2. Too light.

Revainrating 3 out of 5

A little bit not what I expected, generally fine.

The overall impression is 3.5 out of 5, the mouse does not cost 4500r. It was bought to replace the mouse from the A4Tech Q2100 / B2100 kit, that mouse, at a cost 2-3 times lower, felt better. There were no problems with the set.

Pros
  • 1. The ability to change the DPI of the mouse and the backlight, although in the case of the latter it is rather a necessity
Cons
  • 1. The mouse does not hold tightly in the hand, it slips out, there are no rubber bands on the buttons and on the surface, nor any coating for a secure fit 2. Mouse wheel is too loose, not the best scrolling experience 3. When scrolling down, the mouse wheel began to creak (whistle) 5-7 days after the start of use ! 4. Annoying backlighting by default (but it can be changed in special software, you can download it from the asus off site)

The average quality of the product, especially for such money.

Got pros: Comfortable for the hand, palm grip. The side elastic bands are large and do not peel off like on the ASUS Buzzard mouse. Has some cons: RGB lighting works on beeping electronics. If you turn on the backlight in all 3 zones, then it really beeps, and it's annoying. As a result, I left only the logo illuminated, then it does not squeak. Software for it is a set of some services and ROG centers. In fact, only ROG Armory is needed, and after setting up the mouse, it can be thrown out of…

Beyond praise! The product definitely deserves your attention.

So far, only positive impressions from use, for more than 3 months of use, it has never failed. Different pros: Excellent design, sits well in the hand and does not slip, flexible backlight settings in a proprietary application. High accuracy and reliability, for 3 months of use there was not a single comment. High-quality assembly and thoughtful design, the screws are located under the rubber plugs, and not under the sliding platforms (unlike the first version of Gladius), which makes…

Excellent quality, absolutely not expected for such a price.

Bought in Bulk configuration (box, cable and mouse). In general, I approve of this decision, because thanks to it, for 4000 you can buy a top-end mouse, with an excellent sensor, thoughtful shape, and awesome backlighting. Of course, the build quality is a little disappointing, but the price and filling covers all the shortcomings. The origin version does not have a sniper side button, which I personally consider a plus, because not everyone will like the extra button under the thumb. The…

Pros
  • Sensor - Pixart 3360, shape, rubber bands on the sides, design, backlight, detachable cable, interchangeable microphones
Cons
  • The backlash of the left button and the wheel, the side buttons stuck together for the first couple of months. I wish the legs were bigger.

Nothing ordinary, a normal product.

I needed a mouse shaped like a "desader" from risers, but not a riser, with this - OK. I needed a mouse where I wouldn't have to re-solder the mics in case of a double click, like with the logi g603. The design feature of this one allows, this is OK. I decided to return to the wire, since there is a relatively short wire here, and there is USB in the monitor, plus discard the possibility of disconnecting the connection, this is OK For its cost, I would like a longer period of trouble-free…

Pros
  • - comfortable for the palm and fingers shape - relatively silent scrolling - understandable hassle-free software - the mics under the main buttons still live longer than in the logitech g603. I just took one of the spare ones to solder it to the logi - beautiful backlight of course, it's a pity that I don't need it
Cons
  • - the rubber insert under the thumb is erased during operation and crumbles, which is very annoying and distracting in the skating rinks, when you constantly think about how to blow off these rubber crumbs and you can’t concentrate - somehow the scroll rattles incomprehensibly, and after a month or two of use it generally began to creak at times - after 2 years of not very active and careful use, something happened to the mikrik under the wheel, in 50% of cases you have to push it noticeably harder to press, although there is a click already.

A great option for this money, one of the best offers.

I advise you to buy. Pros below: My rating is 4.5 I don't want to put 4 or 5. Exactly 4.5 Replacing switches - a killer chip)) Before that there were G103, G403, G903 and EVERYWHERE DOUBLE CLICK and WHEEL SLIPS. Therefore, I began to look towards other manufacturers and, after a long torment of elections, I chose ASUS ROG GLADIUS II Origin, and not 3 versions. Got cons: Right button. There is not something that backlash, you need to get used to it. But the shape is not very good. It is…

It was a terrible purchase, but I wasted my money.

I do not recommend. Pros: Fits well in the hand Beautiful backlight First time works well With its cons: Already on the second such mouse, exactly a year later, the wheel breaks and the rubber band on the left side is rubbed right down to the plastic.

Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

The mouse does not play, does not creak. It's strange that many people complain. The rubber band is tenacious. Before this mouse, I took the deathadder v2 riser, handed over 3 pieces to the store, all the backlashes and the right button for each of them were pressed tightly. Asus top, no problem with that.

Pros
  • Beautiful, cool, a set of wires, interchangeable microphones. Quite weighty, I do not like light.
Cons
  • No.

Do not hesitate to buy, the quality is amazing for the price.

I have been using it for a month so far there are no complaints, it works as it should, it’s too early to draw conclusions, we’ll see in a year. And it lies so comfortably in the hand, no breakdowns were noticed, encouraging that it is possible to replace the switches.

Pros
  • Convenient shape, does not disrupt movement, there are spare switches, there is a choice of wires
Cons
  • So far so good, time will tell

The purchase is a failure, very dissatisfied.

I liked the mouse, but for this money, this quality is not good, so I don’t recommend taking it, it looks like a cannon, the convenience is super, but with such properties the mouse is bad ( Pros: The design of the mouse is just super, I really liked it, the materials of the mouse are not bad (more details below), excellent shape, like the dezadder from razer Cons below: Terrible rubber bands, they are tenacious, but the rubber band under the thumb is erased, for such money it is extremely…

The product suited me, I will recommend it to my friends.

Somewhere in a couple of days (!) the mouse wheel began to creak. Frankly, it was a big surprise, since I bought it in the official Asus store, and, for example, there were no problems with the same keyboard. Because of this, a feeling of fragility of the mouse is created, even though the wheel itself works without overlays. Otherwise, a fairly good product: it looks decent in its price segment.

Pros
  • Convenient shape for large hands; Sufficiently loud pressing; Change sensitivity on the go; backlight; Nice color and really cute design.
Cons
  • Somewhat strange location of the DPI change button (it happens that you accidentally touch it); The quality of the materials used raises questions.

Very pleased with this purchase, will recommend it to everyone!

In general, a good mouse, asus thought of making interchangeable mics, made sure that people do not throw away 5k every year - 2 for a new mouse because of double clicks. And yes, it's a good company. I give the mouse 5/5 for games. Pros: I bought a mouse in the spring, everything works fine. I don’t know who writes there that the side gum has worn off, it seems to me that this is a problem with the backlight, when the bottom one is turned on, it feels like the mouse is heating up, most likely…
