The trackball mouse has not been in the discussion for a while, but it has not disappeared completely and for those who continue to appreciate such specific product like the Logitech M570, was first introduced in 2010. Now after seven years, Logitech has chosen to renew its trackball mouse with the launch of the new Logitech MX Ergo Wireless mouse.
This new wireless trackball mouse shares many specs of the MX Master 2s mouse, from design to the customizable back, buttons and Flow functionality, allowing you to control multiple computers with just one mouse. Basically, the MX Ergo mouse is represented with the trackball placed on the top left of the device.
The trackball, gray and generous, includes a button that reduces the slider displacement speed, improving the pointing accuracy. Logitech MX Ergo can be tweaked for comfort through an adjustable hinge. This can set the angle from 0 to 20-degrees, improving wrist posture depending on the user. It uses either an included USB receiver with 2.4GHz wireless technology or Bluetooth to connect to a Windows PC or Mac. It can operate up to 10m away.
