Review on ELECOM Trackball Ergonomic Durability M XT2URBK G by Kenny Beyer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Never buy another brand trackball

I bought this trackball as a wired alternative to my wireless Logitech M570. My main reason for switching was the poor signal stability of a Logitech product. Occasionally, when the trackball was more than 3-4 feet away from the USB receiver plugged into the laptop, the trackball would become unresponsive and shake. I wanted to look for Logitech's wired option but saw that they were out of stock and that's when I came across ELECOM and their line of products. What particularly drew me to this model was its ergonomic design (it's not noticeably smaller than the M570 in my opinion, as others have reported) and functionality, as there are multiple buttons that the Logitech alternative doesn't have. Revain delivered the product fairly quickly and it was a pleasure to use right out of the box. The buttons/knobs feel great when pressed and are responsive without being overly touch-sensitive, so there aren't any false clicks or any extra effort I'd ever need to expend with the M570 (although that might just be sheer frustration). . about the signal quality on the M570). The trackball is only slightly smaller than the M570, but this in no way affected or affected my use of the product or its functionality. Like the M570, the ELECOM product has rubberized stickers on the bottom to ensure it doesn't slide on the table and stays steady. Overall this is a great product and I doubt I would go back to Logitech or any other brand if I needed another in the future. .Revain sent it pretty quickly
