The model O is bigger and apparently the model O- is better for gaming for people with smaller hands because of its smaller frame.

What mouse should I get? I currently have a Razer Viper Mini. I am looking at the Model O- Wireless but wondering what else is in that price range (around $120 AUD). I mainly play shooters but have been getting into video editing recently.

. NEEDS to be USB dongle wireless as I don't have Bluetooth 
. I have small hands
. Around $120 AUD
. Needs to be black
. Needs adjustable DPI
. I want RGB

My First PC
CPU: Ryzen 5 5600x
Cooler: Asus TUF Gaming LC240
Motherboard: Asus ROG Strix B550-f gaming
RAM: 4x8 GB Corsair Vengeance RS (3200 MHz, CL16)
Storage: 1tb Samsung 980 Pro
Graphics Card: Asus Dual RTX 2060 OC
Case: Deepcool Matrexx 50
Power Supply: Corsair RM650x
Headset: Razer Blackshark V2
Keyboard: Corsair K70 Pro Mini (Speed Silver switches)
Mouse: Razer Viper Mini
Only changes I have made is I sold the 2060 for $235 AUD and bought a Powercolor Red Devil 6700 XT for $400 second hand (it was barely used, think I scored a deal on Ebay with that).

I love Photography (Using a Canon 60D)

Love F1, my favourite team is Ferrari and my favourite driver is Leclerc

Is there a store close to you?
Because size and form is really important (to me at least).
Might want to try a couple out before making a choice.

And you're really limiting yourself with the need for RGB.
Just get some seperate RGB https://www.amazon.com/MIHEAL-Rainbow-Lighting-Starter-Copmuter/dp/B0C7FBC21N

When i ask for more specs, don't expect me to know the answer!
I'm just helping YOU to help YOURSELF!
(The more info you give the easier it is for others to help you out!)

Not willing to capitulate to the ignorance of the masses!

Sadly not, even the stores that are a bit far away from me don't let you try mice and stuff.
