Fixed my RSI issues! Super comfortable and trying to go back to a regular trackball feels unnatural now
If it weren't for Repetitive Stress issues, I would never have considered a trackball mouse. Now that I have it, I wish I would have looked at it sooner. For me it was not hard to learn although there is an adjustment period. Simply adjust/experiment with the settings until it behaves the way you want and let your thumb get adjusted to its new responsibilities. I'd also recommend alternating between adjusting the settings and then using it awhile before adjusting it again. It may take a while for your hand to acclimate. Constantly changing settings may not be helpful. Pick a reasonably good setting; get used to the trackball; and fine tune later. After this, you can consider programming different button assignments for your specific needs.I'm also glad I purchased the Plus version. That extra 10 degrees was definitely helpful in my case. I like it at 30 degrees. In addition, it gives people the ability to increase the tilt by only 10 degrees. Just attach the plate and leave the Ergo MX in the zero degree position and the plate will give you 10 degrees. So instead of just 0 or 20 degrees built into the MX, you now have 10, 20, or 30 degrees.The wireless dongle and Bluetooth both work great as I use both routinely.At this juncture I am very pleased with my new Logitech trackball mouse and although it is a more expensive option, it is a quality built product. I like the fact that it is also a bit heavier than some similar products because it is less apt to move around. The only reason you might want a lighter option is if you travel a lot and you're trying to minimize weight at all cost. That said, unlike a traditional mouse where weight might be a concern for RSD or gaming, a trackball mouse is not being moved; so a little weight, in my opinion, is actually your friend. While certainly not necessary for traveling, I also bought an MX Ergo travel case for additional protection. It conveniently holds the MX , the charging cable, and the extra plate.While your mileage may vary, if you are trying to minimize wrist and hand stress, I can highly recommend the MX Ergo Plus.
I've been using Logitech trackball mice for approximately 15 years, primarily due to a lack of alternatives. I'm very pleased to say that Logitech finally has competition in the trackball market. I recently replaced my other M570 Logitech trackball, which I had been using as my travel mouse, with a $37 Protoarc mouse after the left click stopped allowing me to drag and drop.The MX Ergo was good(not great) while it lasted. By far the most annoying thing about it was that simply resting my hand on the mouse caused it to click about every 5 seconds. It would also frequently double-click when I clicked only once, causing me to open things unintentionally or even close multiple windows instead of just one. My other complaint is that it uses the outdated and slower micro USB cable to charge. It's one of the last devices I own that still uses a micro USB cable, so it's just one more cable you'll have to keep track of. Luckily, it only needed to be recharged every few weeks. I've had this mouse for three years, but it's mainly used on weekends, as I travel for work on Mondays through Fridays and use a separate mouse for on-the-road use. A couple of weeks ago, I began noticing issues with drag-and-drop functionality on the MX Ergo, just like I had with the M570. I took it apart, hoping the switch inside had just gotten dirty, but it looked clean. I believe it is just worn out. I can feel a big difference between the left and right click switches on the board, which makes sense because the right click gets used far less. Every Logitech mouse I've ever had has had this same issue after 1-3 years.The MX Ergo isn't a completely terrible mouse, so why am I giving it 1 star? Value is the main reason. Logitech has fallen way behind and uses cheaper parts than its off-brand competitors, which cost less than half as much as the Logitech MX Ergo. They also offer features that Logitech doesn't, such as Bluetooth and a 2.4 GHz wireless connection, as well as the ability to switch between devices with the push of a button. My new Protoarc mouse also uses USB-C, and the mouse buttons don't accidentally click when I rest my hand on it, nor do they double-click when I click once. The only feature the MX Ergo has that I miss is the ability to push the scroll wheel left or right to switch browser tabs(which would often stop working until I restarted Windows anyway). Logitech has rested on its laurels and still charges twice as much because it's a brand everyone has used for years and generally trusts. Now that there are better options that are also half the price, I can't recommend any Logitech trackball mouse.
Great Track Ball! Really well configurable for every control and super easy to set up and adjust. Adjustable ergonomic base allows control over wrist angle to minimize wrist fatigue and strain over long sessions.
