Anker 2.4G Wireless Vertical Ergonomic Optical Mouse, 800/1200 /1600 DPI, 5 Buttons for Laptop, Desktop, PC, Macbook - Black

Nice vertical mouse for wrist pain. Initially it took time for me to adjust but it is amazing product for the price you pay. The buttons are well placed however I find it tricky to use the tight click sometimes. Again it is due to my new experience. Scroll wheel has nice grip and work well while scrolling through the webpage.

I bought this ergonomic mouse because my shoulder and arm had been playing up with RSI and a bit of frozen shoulder, and it has made a noticeable difference. The vertical shape feels strange for the first day or two, but once you get used to it your hand and arm feel far more relaxed. The buttons are responsive, the movement is smooth and the DPI settings are easy to switch depending on what you are doing. It connects instantly and the wireless range is strong enough that I can sit comfortably without feeling hunched over the desk. The shape encourages you to keep your wrist straight and your shoulder more relaxed which has eased a lot of the tension I was getting with a normal mouse. It is also lightweight and fits nicely in the hand without feeling bulky. If you are dealing with discomfort from long hours at the computer, this is well worth trying. It has helped me a great deal and I am very pleased with it.

This is a really good ergonomic mouse overall, comfortable for all day use, light as well. I've been using it as my main mouse for over a year now, and it has definitely helped reduce the write pain that I was experiencing with a standard mouse. As you'd expect from Anker, the build quality is really good and I've had no connectivity issues at all. However, I do have a couple of negatives. Firstly, the battery life isn't fantastic, and you get no warning, so it just stops working, and then you have to replace the batteries - no recharging. Secondly, the scroll wheel feels so heavy and clunky - I find that I use my middle finger mostly due to the way my hand fits around the mouse, which took some getting used to but I liked it, but the scroll wheel seems to be getting harder to move, which is making me shop around for a different mouse now.

I had never heard of ergonomic mice before and for years I had quite happily used a 'normal' mouse for computer work. Until I had an injury to my dominant arm and using a normal mouse was just so painful. The ergonomic mouse was a game changer. So I continue using these mice even though my arm is better. How you hold the mouse ergonomic is so natural and comfortable to use. A few weeks ago I bought the same mouse but wired. The wired mouse is brilliant but the wire kept getting in my way. Now I have got the wireless one. Identical to the wired one. Easy to use and go back pages. I love it. It comes with a USB for the computer and requires 2 AAA batteries for the mouse. Once the batteries are in it is ready to go. There is no need to go to settings to set it up.It works straight away. However, I have returned it. There was nothing wrong with the mouse apart from the red light not coming on when I was using it. It is hard to explain.The wired mouse's stripe lights up red when you use it, which I liked. I could see the computer was on and ready to go. However the wireless mouse same model just wireless the light strip does not light up at all. So it looks like a dead mouse. I have got used to seeing the red light on the other model. So, I don't know if it is a fault or just how its designed. I SENT THE WIRELESS MOUSE BACK AND GOT ANOTHER THE SAME. tHE SAME THING THE STRIP DOES NOT SHINE WITH ALIGHT LIKE THE WIRED ANKER. i CONTACTED ANKER AND THEY SAID THE WIRELESS MOUSE DOES NOT LIGHT UP. I like anker but I also like a wireless mouse with lights so I sent this back again.

I purchased this mouse to use on my company laptop. I have had to use an Ergo mouse for a few years now after in excess of 20 years in the IT industry using a standard mouse took it's toll and started to cause incredible RSI pain in my hand and forearm. The mouse I was issued by my company was wired and it had three mouse buttons, It was a very frustrating item to use often the cable would catch on something on my desk and pull the mouse away just enough to cause pressure on the third button whihc could result in a closed window, lost email and it was driving me mad. I didn't want to spend a fortune on a mouse to use at work and the Anker product stood out on Amazon with good reviews. I liked the fact it only had 2 buttons and it was similar in shape to the wired mouse I was using so would not feel awkward or alien to use. The item came next day and was packaged in a very nice presentation box (something I have experienced with other Anker products I have purchased in the past. I received last Thursday, installed 2 x AAA batteries and set it up. It's really comfortable and I love the freedom of movement without the annoyance of the wired connection my old mouse had. The mouse pointer speed was a bit high but after some adjustment it is now perfect for me. The build quality is very good as you would expect from Anker, though the dongle doesn't clip into the base of the mouse, it just pushed in, I am not sure how it is held into position and I am not sure how well it would be gripped in there while in transit so I will probably leave it plugged into the USB port on my laptop. It's really comfortable to grip and move and I like the soft touch feel of the surface. Yet to learn how long the batteries will last as I have only used it for a dy and half so far but I guess if I remember to turn it off at the end of the day the batteries should last a long time. So all in all I'm impressed with this mouse, it's not massively expensive and has a very good look and feel to it.

Great mouse that really helped with the strains I was getting but its now given up the ghost after 14 months as the wheel no longer rotates for scrolling. May but another one as I like the design, but I feel it should last longer.

Fantastic Ergonomic Design – A Game-Changer for Wrist Pain Relief I recently purchased this mouse, and it has made a world of difference in my daily comfort and productivity. If you’re dealing with wrist pain from traditional mice, this product is a must-have! Ergonomics at its Best: The vertical design is incredibly intuitive, providing a natural hand position that drastically reduces strain. It took me no time at all to adjust to the new grip, and I immediately noticed how much better my wrist felt after extended use. Unlike conventional flat mice, the vertical structure keeps my hand in a handshake position, which is much more comfortable and ergonomic. Easy to Set Up and Use: The setup is as simple as it gets. Just pop in two AAA batteries (which aren’t included) and plug in the wireless USB receiver. There’s no need to fuss with drivers or complicated software – it’s truly plug-and-play, making it perfect for users who want hassle-free installation. Improves Comfort & Reduces Pain: Before switching to this mouse, I was experiencing significant wrist discomfort, but after just a short time with the Anker ergonomic mouse, I’ve noticed a significant improvement. The thoughtful design encourages better posture and reduces the strain that traditional mice tend to cause. In Summary: The mouse is a fantastic solution for anyone looking to alleviate wrist pain and improve their overall comfort during computer use. It’s easy to set up, has a solid ergonomic design, and is perfect for both work and leisure. Highly recommended!

Bought this mouse back in June 2015. I'm a graphic design student in third year at university now. Back then I was going into second year and suffered from RSI somewhat which would make designing difficult for me. In May of this year (2016), I bought a new Macbook and when I transitioned the mouse over from my Windows to Mac, it started displaying some issues which I thought were to do with compatibility, so I bought a new mouse. Slowly but surely I recognised that this was due to the fact that after using it day in day out for almost a year (10 hours+ some days), that the scroll had started not to work and the back and forward buttons were just because of the OS. Now, I'm at a point with my new mouse (Logitech MX Master) and it just doesn't match up whatever to this so I'm going to buy a new one of the Anker. The problem with my new mouse is that it's heavy, laggy, and has a broken scroll wheel after two-three months. Not ideal for using Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop and so on. But with this, it's like a dream. I picked up my old Anker a few minutes ago and plugged it into this Mac and loved how it matched up, for a fraction of the price. It's lightweight so it's easy to move and doesn't strain your wrist. It's simplistic and does what it says on the box. And I think the most important thing here is that with so much usage, it has held out a very long time - almost a year. I didn't find that it drained that much battery life either (unless you leave it switched on day and night when not using). I honestly don't know why I invested more in what was supposed to be a superior mouse because it was garbage for me. This is a dream and would wholeheartedly recommend for anyone doing long periods of work on the computer, or even just as a casual user. I think it pretty much echoes how I feel about it when I actually look forward to designing because of the mouse, because at the moment I'm steering away from doing intricate stuff with the MX Master's lagginess and other such problems. All in all for the price, and what you get out of it, I couldn't recommend it more.

What a fantastic product! I started looking into the world of vertical mice after experiencing some wrist discomfort from the use of a traditional mouse. Of course, the first search hit was Evoluent Vertical Mouse. They were the first to market with a product like this, plus they have the whole University of California academic cachet behind them. For YEARS Evoluent was the ONLY player on the vertical mouse market without competition. As a result, the technology and finish of their product is still stuck in the past. Think those ugly white Microsoft optical mice we all used in the late 90s when optical mice were a novelty. The Evoluent mice have the exact same feel, and even worse tracking capability! In Evoluent's defense, their product does relieve wrist strain, but so does Anker vertical mouse...... for only $20! So let's compare the two products side by side, Evoluent vs Anker. Note that I am just over 7 inches from my wrist crease to the tip of my middle finger. This puts me right on the border for Evoluent between normal and small versions. If you are in the same boat, go the smaller size with Evoluent, provided you don't opt for the Anker. 1. Size Evoluent (standard size) felt a bit too big for my hands. The cheap plastic is also very slippery, making it difficult to pick up the mouse and move it if you are at the edge of the mouse pad (and you do need a mouse pad with Evoluent). Anker fits my hand perfectly. I simply LOVE holding the mouse. It has a really nice rubbery matte finish that prevents your hand from slipping. 2. Hand Position Both Anker and Evoluent offer the handshake position. I would say that Evoluent hand position is about 80 degrees between table top and your wrist. For comparison, regular mouse would have your wrist at 0 degrees. Anker holds your wrist at about 65 degrees. It is debatable whether 80 or 65 degrees is better. With both mice I felt immediate relief of wrist tension. Going back to 0 degree traditional mouse position feels immediately awkward. It is a toss up between the Anker and Evoluent with a slight edge given to Evoluent, just because they have a bit of science in their product marketing. 3. Usability This is personal, but for me Anker wins hands down in this category. Anker feels intuitive right out the box. You click with left finger and right click with the right. The back/forward thumb buttons were also very intuitive for me. This is similar to most Logitech mice. Mouse buttons on Anker have nice rigidity to them. Evoluent, on the other hand, takes some getting used to. It is a big clunky thing that slips out of your hand. Left finger does the left click. But it is, by default, you pinkie and ring-finger that do the right clicking. You can also reassign right click to the middle mouse button, but somehow it feels awkward and you keep pressing the default right click button anyway. Also, it is EXTREMELY easy to accidentally click on Evoluent. Buttons are cheap and plastic, and the scroll wheel is a complete joke. Granted, Anker's mouse wheel is not stellar, but it works well. I must have the newer batch, as I cannot relate to any of the scroll wheel problems mentioned in review. Don't forget Evoluent's back/forward mouse buttons. They are awkward to use at first, but you get accustomed to the arrangement. Matter of preference here. 4. Tracking Evoluent tracking is ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE. I have a black Ikea Galant desk. It's not shiny, just wood with black matte veneer. Everything tracks on it....... except the Evoluent mouse. So you HAVE to get a mouse pad. And be careful, you won't get tracking on every mouse pad, even if it is matte black. This is on a $100+ mouse!!! On the other end of the spectrum, Anker tracks on everything except glass. This is a $20 mouse. In summary, there is not much to chose from in the vertical mouse arena. So get the Anker vertical mouse, get rid of wrist strain... and save Evoluent for the fanboys.

Funciona bien. Es cómodo aunque hay que acostumbrarse al cambio de posición.

Dopo più di 6 mesi di utilizzo, ritengo che questo mouse verticale è un’ottima scelta per chi cerca comfort ed ergonomia. Anche dopo ore di utilizzo continuo, la mano e il polso non si affaticano, grazie alla sua forma studiata per una presa naturale. Dal punto di vista dell’alimentazione, il mouse richiede due batterie (non incluse), ma non ho ancora dovuto sostituirle a distanza di oltre 6 mesi. Considerando il rapporto qualità-prezzo, è difficile trovare di meglio in questa fascia di prezzo. Se cercate un mouse ergonomico, preciso e con funzioni aggiuntive utili (grazie ai tasti laterali), questo è sicuramente un acquisto consigliato!

Je viens faire un retour après 1 mois et demi d'utilisation de ce produit et je peux dire que j'en suis pleinement satisfait, je l'utilise environ 7h par jour (c'est ma souris de travail) et j'envisage même son intégration à la maison. Tout d'abord j’appréhendais un peu le passage souris standard vers souris verticale, et finalement il ne m'a pas fallu plus de quelques heures pour maîtriser la bête. Concernant les douleurs au poignet je dois admettre que je n'en avais pas réellement à la base. J'avais plutôt pris ce produit dans un but préventif, du coup je n'ai pas senti de changement particulier en utilisant cette souris jusqu'à ce que je retourne sur une souris classique et là on sent tout de suite une sorte de gêne au niveau du poignet et de l'avant bras, comme si cette position n'était pas naturelle. J'ai également remarqué qu'on a tendance a renversé la souris, étant donné que la souris n'est plus "plate" on a tendances à la renverser sur le coté, ce n'est pas grave en soit mais ça peut être un peu énervant au début surtout quand on bouge régulièrement ses mains sur le bureau. Concernant les autres aspects de la souris je trouve que les matériaux utilisé donne un rendu de qualité, je ne suis pas expert dans le domaine pour le confirmer mais les plastiques sont "doux" et c'est agréable à utiliser. La souris dispose bien de 5 boutons, aucun problème pour les clics droit / gauche / précédent / suivant par contre le clic de molette a été compliqué au début, il faut je trouve appuyer plus fort que sur une souris classique (certainement dû à la position de la main) mais ce ressenti c'est dissipé aujourd'hui. J'ajouterais aussi qu'il n'y a pas de débrayage de la molette comme sur certaines souris (notamment Logitech pour celles que j'ai pu avoir) cette fonction est bien pratique mais n'est pas pour autant indispensable (surtout à ce prix). Enfin il est possible de régler le nombre de DPI de la souris (800, 1200 ou 1600) j'aurais toutefois aimé avoir un indicateur, par exemple une échelle graduée avec une petit bouton a déplacer comme au dessous de certains autres modèles. Je précise également que les 2 piles AAA ne sont pas fournies, mais sachez que la souris passe en mode veille si vous ne vous en servez pas pendant quelques minutes (on la reveille d'un simple clic) ce qui permettra d'économiser un peu sur la durée de vie de ces piles. En résumé, Points positifs ; - Réduction de la fatigue au niveau du poignet - Prise en main plutôt rapide si on utilise une souris régulièrement - Matériaux qui semble de bonne facture - Un mode "veille" pour éviter de vider les piles trop vite Points Négatifs ; - Piles non fournies - Tombe facilement (voir détails plus haut) - Pourrait être un peu plus large pour un confort optimal (mais variable selon les utilisateurs) - Pas d'indication sur le nombre de dpi Je recommande donc cette souris notamment à ceux qui serait curieux de la chose mais qui ne voudrait pas franchir le pas et puis pour le prix vous ne prenez pas un gros risque.
