Review on ๐Ÿ–ฑ๏ธ Lekvey Wireless Left Handed Ergonomic Vertical Mouse - Black, Less Noise, 2.4G USB by Aaron Schultz

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I tried to love it and failed but you could.

Ergonomic mouse with the same form factor, most likely the same Chinese shapes as a dozen competitors, and at a competitive price. It is comfortable to hold and has a nice rubberized finish. What's not to love? Spring. two small things I'll leave for you to make sense of: 1. What I care about is that it shuts down, hibernates, or otherwise stops working after a relatively short period of inactivity. Presumably this is to extend battery life, but none of my other wireless mice do this, and I frequently switch between mice and workstations and find it quite annoying. You'll never have any indication that this thing has been closed, except when the mouse pointer can't move and to wake it up you have to click or right-click and the click is passed on to the application. This often causes me to accidentally close or open something when trying to wake up the mouse. I should never be reminded that the mouse exists as long as the battery is there. Should only be BE.2. My second question is more a question of preference, but it is very important to me. This mouse has a fairly conventional ergonomic design, but I find it too light and a bit big. I often have a high when I reach for coffee or my phone and knock the mouse over or drop it on the floor. That being said, there's nothing wrong with the form factor, but if you think that might be an issue for you, there are other designs (like the Jelly Comb) that are shorter and sturdier, but put your hand in exactly the same comfortable position bring. .Edited to add that the manufacturer contacted me immediately after my initial review and I was able to resolve my tracking issue with the new batteries. That's fine, but I prefer a mouse that either dies or flashes a warning light when the battery is low than one that slowly stops tracking. On the positive side, someone is paying attention and answering user questions. On the other hand, I think I'll be happier with a different mouse.

Pros
  • Suitable for many
