Review on Kensington Orbit Trackball Scroll K72337US by Alvin ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The product is completely satisfied, performs its functions.

Bought this turkball as a fun gadget for my birthday. The toy is interesting and surprisingly comfortable . I don’t suffer from tunnel syndrome, I don’t work in professional graphic programs, and the mouse suits me just fine, I use the trackball in ordinary programs (YouTube, Windows .). The trackball can be used more lazily than the mouse, the labor costs are less, so to speak, and you can move the cursor very accurately. The setup program assigns keys to slow down and to move only vertically/horizontally. It is not convenient to simultaneously hold down the left button and rotate the ball, the buttons are not conveniently located at all, you have to press the left one with your thumb and the right one with your little finger. There is a feeling of cheapness, the wrist rest dangles, the scrolling bezel has a backlash. For professional work, I would look at more expensive models.

Pros
  • Crawling with a ball is quite funny, the cursor is positioned easily and accurately. The scroll wheel is very easy to use.
Cons
  • Inconvenient button placement. The ball sticks with micro movements. The sensor breaks down during fast rotation. Lost mouse settings.
