Review on Logitech ERGO M575 Wireless Trackball Mouse with Easy Thumb Control, Precision Tracking, Ergonomic Comfort Design for Windows/Mac, Bluetooth & USB Connectivity - Graphite by Roderick Reynolds

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not ergonomic for my hand and the design software I use

Really wanted this mouse to be liked - thought the trackball would be very easy to use. BUT with the design software I use I have to roll the ball while holding the left button to move elements etc which puts more strain on the arm and is not ergonomic for my hand or usage. Also found it difficult to land on something accurately - sometimes the trackball would overshoot, or I couldn't coordinate click + roller and remove the object, it was frustrating. The clicking is also louder than my magic mouse. For reference: wrist width 3.2 inches. Finger length + arm length 6.3 inches. Maybe the learning curve is longer but I didn't get much out of it using a tablet with a pen for drawing and other activities and some people find a pen + tablet impossible 🤷 🏻‍♀️. I am sending back and I think I will get a mouse pad on my wrist. The Surface ARC mouse looks really cool and could serve my purpose - if only it worked properly - people have mentioned lag and that's unacceptable.

Pros
  • Finally bought it
Cons
  • Slightly torn
