    I am someone who constantly has my mouse run out of battery cause I forget to plug it in and charge it. When I saw this mouse that has swappable batteries as well as a charging station. I knew that this could be exactly what I was looking for. Out of the box you can tell this is a well built mouse. Even though it is extremely light (69 grams) You can tell that it’s a quality product when you hold it in your hand. It comes with the battery base (charger) as well as 2 batteries, a wireless receiver (USB-C) and a braided USB cable. Getting it set up is about as easy as it gets. You just plug in the little dongle, and its automatically connected to your computer. There is companion software you can also download that will allow you to change all of the settings on the mouse as well as change the lighting schemes if you choose. What I love about this mouse is the battery system. There is a small internal battery in the mouse that is used as “reserve power” So if your main battery dies, it will seamlessly switch over to the reserve power so you can swap out the other hot swappable battery and not skip a beat. The mouse wont disconnect from your computer or anything. I have a feeling we will start to see this kind of technology coming from other companies in the near future because it is a game changer (pun intended) Now lets get to how it performs as a mouse. It has a 30K DPI sensor with 8,000 Hz polling rate. This means that you are able to get quick, and extremely accurate results from your mouse. I have absolutely no complaints about the performance during gaming, as well as using it for everyday tasks like photo or video editing. I love the switches on this mouse too, they are good for quiet gaming cause they don’t have a loud click sound. Overall, I am extremely happy with this mouse. If you are a gamer, you will love it. If you are somone who constantly forgets to charge your mouse, you will also love it!

    Had the mouse for 3 days and it died in the middle of combat 2 times. They claim it has an internal battery so it doesnt go dead like it did to me twice. It was nice being able to "quick change" the batteries but they didnt last at all.

      Thank you for sharing your feedback and I am sorry to hear about the issues with the battery. If the replaceable battery is depleted, the mouse should definitely switch to the internal battery, so that your gametime goes uninterrupted. If this is not the case, please consider submitting a support ticket to our team, so that we can assist you further: https://contact.gorgias.help/en-US/forms/k77oyz80. Thanks! GloriousGaming

    This review is on a Glorious Model D3 Wireless mouse. I love the black and orange combination. This is the first mouse I have seen with a battery pack like this one. It is a cartridge that you can push in\out to remove\insert. It is kind of like a game cartridge to a Gameboy so this is cool. It comes with a base station, two cartridges and a dongle. One cartridge can be plugged into the base station and the other one in the mouse. Swapping them is easy when the one in the mouse runs out. The mouse holds enough power while you swap so it never looses connection. I do not know how long it will last without a cartridge in the mouse but there is more than enough time to do it. There is 6 DPI stages saved on the mouse. They can easily be changed by the middle button on the mouse or the button on the base. The software offers everything needed to change on the mouse. I have a 4K monitor and the writing in the software is very small but still readable. There are 12 RGB effects to choose from and can be change either by the software or certain button presses on the mouse. There is a brightness selector for each RGB effect but I cannot tell a difference when changing the brightness. You can control the speed of the effect and that works. You can also remap keys to the mouse or the base. The mouse is light and moves around easy. My hand fits perfectly over the mouse. The middle wheel doesn't click loudly when turning it and it has good control. Motion and control is spot on and is very smooth when using the mouse.

    Well executed concept

    This is an interesting mouse in that it uses an exchangeable rechargeable battery. Thus, in theory, you should never have to worry about the battery dying as a newly charged battery is just a quick swap away. The execution of that battery swap was also well thought-out in that there must be a capacitor or some type of small internal battery in the mouse because, when swapping out batteries, the mouse still has power. (I am not sure how long it will retain power without the battery installed, but it was more than long enough to swap out the battery.) The battery charger is sleek and compact. It plugs in to your computer via USB and it has a USB port for the included wireless dongle. The included USB cable is long enough to allow positioning of the charging box wherever you want (within reason). There is also a programmable button on the charging box that allows you to toggle between whatever setting you choose (either by default or via setting it up in their downloadable software). Along those lines, the software works well and gives you several options for customizing the lighting effect, resolution of the mouse, and a few other settings. The mouse tracks well and I have not noticed any cursor skipping. (Cursor movement is fluid.) Being able to customize the resolution of the mouse (dpi) does give very granular control over how quickly the mouse track and, at the extremes of the scale, can arguably be infuriating with the cursor barely moving or jumping from one side of the screen to the other. As far as negatives are concerned, the main criticism I have is that the mouse is very light and feels like plastic in the hand. (Which is not too surprising as it is made out of plastic.) The point, though, is that the mouse lacks heft, if you will. It glides well and is accurate, but it feels too light. The other thing I noticed is that the batteries do not seem to last very long before they need to be swapped. As the batteries can be easily swapped without interrupting my work or gaming, this may not be a huge problem, but if that proves to be the case, I have to wonder how long the batteries will last given a high number of recharge cycles. (Maybe turning off the LED will help the batteries last longer. I will have to check to ensure the batteries are fully charged before swapping to see just how long they last.) Overall, the software. allows for multiple profiles and good customization that includes its DPI sensitivity, poling rate, "debounce" time, keybinding, lighting, and other related functions. The mouse is accurate, comfortable, and has swappable rechargeable batteries. Personally, I would like the mouse to have a little more weight to it and I am hoping the batteries last longer than in my first go around (time will tell). For what I do, the mouse works well.

    Works Good Until It Doesn't

    While there are a lot of things I like about this mouse there are a few parts I do not. First the good. I really like the way the battery hot swappable. This is a very handy feature that I like very much. This means it is handy to swap out a dying battery for a fresh one without too much hassle. It has excellent tracking, one of the best optical tracking I've used on a blue tooth mouse Battery life is a bit above average for a wireless mouse. I seems to hardly weigh anything at all. Where it falls sort, at least for me is blue tooth pairing. About two weeks ago I had a bad Windows update experience. Bad enough I had to while the SSD and reinstall windows on my machine. This means previously connected devices needed to be repaired to my PC. This mouse I couldn't get to pair with my reinstall of windows. I followed the instructions, multiple times, with no pairing with blue tooth. I've tried off and on over the past week or so with no luck so far. I just dug another mouse out my computer parts bin and have been using it until I can get it to work again.
