“If you’re looking for a mouse that can be easily configured to suit your needs
That offers flawless performance in any task
Then the ASUS RoG Gladius II is a great looking and reliable choice worthy of your investment.”
ASUS RoG Gladius II Optic
Pricey compared to Gladius I
DPI target button not for everyone
DPI Target Button can get in the way
Slightly awkward thumb rest
Lacks higher-end features
Expensive
Lacks some features
Too much packaging for the ‘unboxing experience'
No left handed version
Price is at the top end for mid-range products
Clunky software
No weight adjustment
ROG Armoury is not quite as comprehensive as Razer Synapse
Detachable cord, Attractive, ergonomic design, Excellent optical sensor, Sniper-mode button, Lift-distance wizard, Extra pair of switches
Pricey for what you get, Only three stored profiles, and not executable-specific, Only two DPI settings, No separate X/Y axis controls, Buggy, primitive macro editor, Rubber grips are slick, Frenetic lighting effects can't be slowed
Dated configuration software and a high price hamper this general gaming mouse, but its optical sensor and micro switches are of very high quality. Read More...

ASUS ROG Gladius II received a number of pleasant improvements in comparison with the first version of the mouse. The most important of these is the powerful and best-in-class optical sensor Pixart PMW 3360, capable of withstanding loads far beyond human...
Sequels to anything are always something which makes us a little cautious. The Godfather II and Empire Strikes Back are pretty much the flag bearers, and everything else tends to lose what made the original so great in the first place. Fortunately the Gla...

Throughout my test, the ASUS ROG Gladius II is actually pretty impressive, but so is the original ROG Gladius. My point here is this – though the ASUS ROG Gladius II has a better sensor that can track accurately on more surfaces, the price is a big ouchie...

Triple-zone RGB lighting, Swappable Omron switches, Free pair of Made in Japan Omron D2F-01F, 12000 dpi resolution if you need it, DPI target button for the FPS gamer, ASUS AURA Sync compatibility
Only two dpi configurations available at one time, Only three profiles available for configuration, Swappable switches should be a tool-less process
ASUS proved that the ASUS ROG Gladius II is not just all about RGB. The added improved switches and DPI target button does account for a second generation. A little more push on the dpi configurations and more profiles would have been an added bonus for s...

ROG Gladius II Gaming Mouse ReviewThe Gladius II Gaming Mouse is definitely a comfort to use. It's feel is similar to the Razer Deathadder with a smaller footprint and a more natural ergonomic feel. It helps the gamer last longer in gaming sessions withou...

DPI Shift Button too far back for comfortable use for palm grip users
We tested the ASUS ROG Gladius II by playing games such as Overwatch, Battlefield 1, and Starcraft II: Legacy of the Void. We must say that the tracking of the mouse's PMW-3360 sensor. There's also no shortage of DPI requirements since the sensor can be i...
