Honestly, when I saw the price of this mouse, I thought it was in error. For some reason, this truly fantastic gaming mouse costs just £42.95 here in the UK. That’s INSANE value for money for the features you get here. If you want something a little more RGB-riddled, with a more extreme DPI, you can get the Origin version for just £64.99. There’s also a wireless version for £89.48.
ASUS makes some of the coolest gaming mice on the market today. While I find quite impressive, as they’ve got some serious competition from brands who put specialise in making mice, and ASUS can still go head to head with the best. I wouldn’t say the Gladius II is the best gaming mouse out there, that alone is quite subjective. However, it’s certainly competitive with anything else out there.
What impressed me most about this mouse is the price. The features and performance of the mouse are good enough to compete with much more expensive models. I’m actually a little confused about how it’s as affordable as it is. A good quality optical sensor, good quality mechanical switches with a hot-swap system, braided cable, RGB, it’s all here.
Admittedly, this is the Core model and the Origin model has more advanced RGB and an even better sensor, but that doesn’t diminish the performance of the Core model one bit. If anything, it reinforces the Core, as this is all the gaming mouse most gamers will ever need.
ASUS hasn’t reinvented the mouse here, far from it. This is a very traditional gaming mouse. There’s no million-button configuration, the RGB isn’t in 21 zones, etc. It’s just a really good ergonomic shape, lightweight, smooth tracking and that’s about the end of it really. At this price, I’ll be surprised if you can find anything as good.
