Buy the Endgame Gear XM2we for fans of the XM1/XM2 symmetrical shape and ambidextrous claw and palm grip users, though it is not built for players who specifically want 4000Hz or 8000Hz polling and anyone wanting RGB lighting. The Glorious Model O 2 Pro suits fans of honeycomb/vented shells and competitive players wanting 8000Hz wireless polling, though it is the wrong buy for anyone who dislikes cutout/honeycomb shells collecting dust and palm grip users wanting a fully enclosed shell. Our rating of the Endgame Gear XM2we (8/10): A comfortable, no-frills wireless upgrade for fans of Endgame Gear's XM shape. Our rating of the Glorious Model O 2 Pro (9/10): Glorious's most complete flagship yet, the honeycomb shell finally comes with sensor and polling specs to match.
