ASUS ROG Gladius III Wireless Gaming Mouse, 36000 DPI, 6 Buttons, Replaceable Switches, Paracord Cable – White

Quality wireless!
As the saying goes, you get what you pay for and that’s the case here. I know you can usually find the normal Gladius III cheaper, but I just dig the style on this.But to the point of how this thing performs.. first, I never expected a wireless mouse to be this responsive and the overall feel in my hand feels great and a nice contrast to the Logi G502 hero I usually use. And I think this will end up being my full timer.Battery life. It came partially charged at 74% and once plugged into my PC took about 15 minutes to charge the rest. Now, I’m am avid gamer and my PC is on usually 12-14 hrs a day and I’ve left the mouse on during operating hours, and though it goes to sleep if not being used, in 4 days time it’s used 9% of its battery. Can’t ask for much better. There’s options for longer life but I use a controller too so the mouse isn’t always in use.ROG is pricey and (mostly) quality stuff and this proving it’s price point so far. Also went with this for pairing with my ROG Ally when on trips.All in all, if you have the money to spend on a fantastic, proper wireless..this is it

Excellent ergonomics and seamless wired/wireless performance on Linux
I’m using this mouse full-time on Arch Linux for gaming, art and design. I really like the textured sides since they provide good grip and the shape is ergonomic for my hands (right-handed). For reference, my previous mouse was a Logitech G403 Hero wired.As a varying claw/palm grip user who enjoyed the shape and size profile of the G403, I find I’m enjoying the Gladius III quite a bit more. I think the side texture and better shaped right side of the mouse make it a lot easier to grip regardless of task.My primary reason to switch away from Logitech mice is that I’ve had 7 various Logitech mice break in 7 years. It always came down to double-clicking issues or broken scroll wheels. Unacceptable to the degree that they’ve permanently lost my business.Since I’ve had so many subpar Logitech mice break from regular usage, budget was not a factor and any price-point was acceptable to get a durable mouse.I went with ASUS because of the replaceable switches rated at 70 million clicks. They have a qualified vendors document on their website that lists compatibility with Omron and Kailh for the Gen 2 push fit sockets this mouse has. Here’s the current list of compatible switches for reference:Omron Model D2F-01F, D2FC-F-7N (10M), D2FC-F-7N (20M), D2F-F-3-7, D2FC-F-K (50M)Kailh CMI126603D08-5 (20M), CMI126603D09-3 (30M), CMI126601D01 (60M), CMI126601D03(80M)~Clicks are satisfying and not particularly louder or softer than I’m used to, a click is a click. The DPI button works great and feels good, side buttons are solid across their width like a balanced spacebar. The bottom profile button is great, I use the green light profile that reacts to clicks since I don’t like RGB.Performance is the same across wired and wireless (dongle) for me. I like that it saves on battery by shutting off the mouse when I step away for an extended period of time. A couple clicks and it’s active again. Battery life is excellent, I’ve been running it wireless full time with zero charges for over a week and it’s still holding up strong.Included cable is braided and so soft, reminds me of a couch pillow’s plush cotton knit. It slides across my large mouse pad and doesn’t catch on anything in my cable management.Speaking of, I always hated playing shooters with a wireless mouse but I’ve noticed no difference playing wired or wireless with this mouse. In my mind, it boils down to excellent shape, texture and ergonomics because I’m not having to counterweight the mouse’s cable drag against a poorly designed mouse body to feel centered.I’ve also seen no discoloration with heavy use despite this being a white/grey colorway. This must be due to the plastic appearing to be a smooth injection-style color (Legos) instead of a low quality spray-on paintjob (Logitech G203).~I’ll wrap up with a deep dive on the daily experience with this mouse and Arch Linux.This mouse is incompatible with Piper, the software I previously used to manage my Logitech mouse’s DPI, shut off the RGB and remap the side buttons into media keys.I knew that going into this (search for libratbag devices list on Github), so I utilize my Keychron Q3 for media key functionality and actually prefer it.I’m limited to managing the features of the Gladius with the built-in hardware buttons and yet I have no regrets. The DPI settings out of the box are perfect for the full range of settings I switch between and one of the onboard profiles has reactionary RGB based on clicks, which is very close to my optimal no-RGB setup.~TL;DRGladius III is my favorite mouse I’ve ever used out of Corsair, Logitech and now ASUS. No discoloration with heavy use despite being white/grey colorway. Great out of box experience even without software manageability (for Linux), robust profile / DPI selections and the best ergonomics I’ve ever used as a hybrid claw/palm grip user coming from the G403. Reminds me of my original Corsair Sabre mouse, but improved. I have high hopes for this mouse long-term with the hot-swappable switches.

Sleek. Works well. Not a heavy mouse but, not light either. Has a nice solid feel to it. You can adjust lighting, power, axis, poling rate etc. There’s a lot of options. Works well for gaming and productivity.

Mi primer mouse de gama-alta de la mano ASUS no pudo ser mejor, excelente bateria de larga duración(incluído el RGB activado), clics precisos y practicamente silenciosos y en general un mouse muy ligero al estar usando, no cansa la mano y es muy comodo… en cuanto al sensor óptico este es super preciso con excelentes rangos de DPI configurables, lo que si note fue que no es muy recomendable ponerlo en cualquier superficie ya que (al menos a mi) me daba ciertos laggeos/tirones y no fue sino hasta que le compre el mouse-pad ROG BALTEUS que se eliminó este problema… por lo demás lo recomiendo ampliamente, no se arrepentiran.
