I expected more from buying, but not the worst option.

I made a concerted effort to accept the situation as it was. I adjusted the speed settings by cutting them in half compared to what I was accustomed to, going from 12 to 7. Unusually for me, I activated the "enhanced pointer setting precision" option, which makes the trackball more accurate but is otherwise unremarkable (I recommend everyone to try with this setting). I attempted to acclimate myself to switching to precise mode, which slows down the cursor speed by approximately five times; but, I was not prepared to turn it on and off each time. I swapped out this mouse at the store three times in the hopes that it would bring me a spouse, but each one had some degree of difficulty with the same issue. The bearings, or whatever you want to call them, were spotless. In addition, I contacted Logitech's customer care; they suggested that I send it back, so I did. On the other hand, the trackball on the demo copy in the store rode as smoothly as if it had been greased and did not have this issue at all. I'm going to assume that this is a marriage within the party, because what other explanation is there for this?

This is the primary challenge that I was unable to resolve within the allotted time frame of ten days. There are also others, such as the fact that the bevel makes it more convenient to click the scroll to the right, but it makes clicking it to the left more difficult because it protrudes less from this side. In addition, the scroll has a really firm feel when being pressed; I have not come across any others like it. Absolutely, and it let Logitech to save money on it because they could insert their own own magnetic scroll, just as in a lot of other MXs, even cheaper ones. In the end, the price of this mouse ranges from 6,500 to 7,000 dollars, which is considered to be above average by me.

Pros

Let's start with the positive. As for the location of the hand and the usage of the major buttons, the mouse is practically excellent; nonetheless, it is difficult to please me with ergonomics because, after using the Logitech Performance Mouse MX 2022, I don't like any mouse for its ergonomics. There were none at all, although many were there. The hand rests provide an almost identical level of full comfort. Even though this is my first time using a trackball, I quickly became accustomed to it on the very first day. It was almost as if I had muscle memory. When I first woke up, there were some minor aches in the joints of my thumb, but by the next day, they had all disappeared. Materials that are standard, and excellent software Maintains its footing on the table.

Cons

The unfortunate part comes afterwards. When it falls, the trackball performs a jump. It is not possible to move the trackball along the horizontal axis while standing still because this requires the user to hop. He is not a smooth operator. If you need to pick the text with the mouse, for instance, and you need to do it up to a letter, then there will be issues with this. After reaching a stationary state, it will no longer be feasible to move the mouse a half millimeter or a millimeter; instead, the pointer will twitch two or three millimeters at the regular cursor speed. There is a skip in the cursor. I sincerely hope that was understandable. When moving upwards, though, there are no bumps in the road. It would appear that this is due to the fact that while the object is travelling horizontally, all of the friction is concentrated on exactly one lower "bearing."
