Gamer Choice

“A tuned-up competitive gaming Peripherals this may be, but it’s still very versatile. With software customisation, solid performance from the switches and sensor, it’s just as adept at home, in the office, or for pro gaming. With deals way under the £80 MSRP, you would be mad not to consider this for your next gaming Peripherals.”

Gold Award

There is no doubt that ASUS with Gladius II has made a good solid mouse, it does not immediately reflect much on appearance, but has a considerable amount of extensions, and it should be mentioned in particular that the extra switches provide longer life.

Silver Award

[...] it's well built, with removable switches. That's an awesome idea. It is ergonomic, with a great bundle and easy to use.

Silver Award

The Asus ROG Gladius II Origin offers a great bundle with two extra omron switches as well as a transport pouch which is very interesting.

WW4G 4.5/5 Stars

The ASUS ROG Gladius II improves quite heavily on the original with the inclusion of a new sensor, an additional thumb button, a more standard and popular set of mouse feet, easier access to its internals, more lighting zones, and full RGB lighting. In spite being one of the more expensive wired mice out there, the Gladius II easily makes up for it with its impressive set of features, additional components, and excellent performance.

Digit Zero1 Award

Even with high-end sensors, few manufacturers are able to calibrate it and maintain tracking at different CPI levels. ASUS has done a great job in both these aspects by using the potential of the 3360. The mouse comes with beautiful RGB lighting customisation using their ROG Armoury software. So, the Gladius II Origin accurate, and it also offers extra cosmetic features.

Highly Recommended

All in all, ROG Gladius II Origin is a great choice for every player who primarily plays FPS. Fast, reliable and incredibly precise, this model delivers exactly what is most needed to dominate the digital battlefields.
