Awards

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.

Review Gaming Gear ROG Gladius II Origin - Call of Duty Edition

The mouse works smoothly, reads every pixel and I have no complaints

Overall, I am completely satisfied with this mouse - it has a convenient form factor, a good quality RGB backlight and most importantly, a well-assembled body.

There are similar peripherals, always signed ASUS at a lower cost and it's true, I also agree, but for those who want to make a leap in quality it's ideal. Especially for those who, perhaps, have more than one computer and who play on each of these with Cloud systems.
