Review on ๐Ÿ–ฑ๏ธ Black Kensington Orbit Wireless Trackball Mouse - K72352US with Touch Scroll Ring by Tony Watts

Revainrating 3 out of 5

as i have had great success with kensington trackballs in the past

I was glad to get this as i have had great success with kensington trackballs in the past. I needed something wireless and thought it would be great. Instead it was a nightmare. The trackball sensitivity is weird. Sometimes it's too sensitive, sometimes it's not sensitive enough. It's frustrating when trying to draw or point to a specific area on the screen. I approach the spot and then start slowing down to get to the exact spot. Sometimes the cursor just stops and doesn't move even though the ball is moving. Other times, it just goes way beyond the point. An even more annoying aspect of this mouse is that the cursor just starts shaking! I leave the cursor on the screen and then just watch him dance and stop halfway across the screen. This is problematic for obvious reasons, but when I expect the cursor to be where I left it, I click and find that it's far from where I want it to be. days I want to take this thing and throw it against the wall.

Pros
