This is an excellent review. ... I’ll just say, however, I’ve been in the ergonomic field for 40 years. I have worked extensively with, for example, classical string musicians with severe pain & dysfunction of the arms and hands. I saved a LOT of professional musical careers that would have ended due to so much pain in their arms & hands. ... For ME, these trackballs from Logitech are TOTALLY stress and tension reducing. Yet I can see where they would need some getting used to for SOME people. But the fact is the “reversible thumb” is designed to do a wide range of motions, whereas the wrists and other fingers are not. So I highly recommend giving these devices a try. But give it some time to adapt. ... A world class violinist who switches to a viola (almost identical except for a small size difference) can suffer quite a a lot of stress and pain for a period of time, even though there is very little difference in the instruments except being in little larger. But because their neuromuscular system is so used to one VERY precise pattern of movement, switching to an instrument that only requires a slight change in reach when playing is enough to trigger an sense of unfamiliarity, which can trigger a pain pattern. (The nervous system loves familiarity, and hates unfamiliarity.) For some people, even slight deviations of movement can produce a pain pattern even though NO real damage is actually occurring. So, don’t give up too soon if you try this device.

Definitely takes some getting used to, and I've discovered over the years that many people, when they try a mouse like this, simply don't adjust its settings appropriately for their needs. Just tweaking the pointer speed and trying it with and without the enhanced pointer precision in Windows can make a big difference. But it mostly just takes time to get used to. There's no way you're gonna just plug it in and it's going to feel right for you. Probably need a minimum of a week of regular usage before it starts to feel somewhat natural to use. For me, it's awkward when I go back to using a traditional mouse: too much moving around, and too easy to swing my camera in completely wrong directions when I'm playing a game. Plus I often play on my couch or bed and that can be difficult with a regular mouse. :)

I concur, switching to a trackball is a very different experience. My dad used one for a long time and whenever I worked on his computer I had to adjust myself. Ended up getting one for myself, and now I’m looking at this one to put in my bag for travel use. I think even for people who won’t have Windows and use an alternate OS (Linux or macOS) should consider dialing in the settings, it will really help. I’m also keen to try this with my iPad, since on that platform there isn’t much adjustment to be made.

I have both MX ERGO and ERGO M575. One is in my office and another is for home. As a 3D modeler, I really would like to recommend tracking ball mouses for people who have a workflow that heavily relies on mouse. It feels weird to use at the beginning, but after a couple of hours you will get used to it. Before I use a tracking ball mouse, my arm and the joint between my arm and palm could easily feel pain, nonetheless this problem was all solved by the tracking ball mouse like a magic. Now I can sit and work for hours without feeling the pain.

from my experience, trackpad is actually the most ergonomics because our hands does not forced to stay horizontally. Since our middle finger is longer, it becomes the pointer and when you rest the palm it naturally want to rest on right, then since your ring finger is shorter, when you want to apply double touch for right click, your hand automatically making a 45 degree angle. So the take way here is to use the right corner of your middle and ring finger.

Half of my work on the computer is on photo editing. I can only say that it takes a bit of time to get the hang of controling the curser wtg your thumb. For general use the model that ypu are reviewing will do well, but for high presion works, you'll need the more pricy MX ERGO model. That tb came with a resolution button. It toggles between normal resolution and fine resolution where normal will be like any trackball and in fine resolution the cursor move slowly and smoothly. I have one in the office and one at home.

So to avoid that, I have to consciously lift my middle finger upwards to avoid it... which obviously is extremely uncomfortable. Not for me.

The first time I tried a trackball 15 years ago i absolutely hated it but they are now a life saver! It definitely takes some getting used to and even trying a couple different brands. What you said about this particular trackball I completely agree with - it easily moves across the screen but has some difficulty when you need to be accurate or precise. I've tried another trackball with the opposite issue - hard to move across the screen but very accurate when precision is needed. Anyway the main takeaway from your video and using them over the last week is that there is a tradeoff, accuracy for comfort/ergonomics, which at this point in my life I am able to take a chance on them, and so far it has paid off!

Nice and relatively comprehensive review. It took me personally about 2 days to get completely used to trackball. On the third I set it more precisely with "Set Point", which allows quite good customization. I have been using the M570 for almost a year. In my opinion, despite the manufacturer's claim, the M575 is a downgrade. I have a friend who bought an M575 and we exchanged them for a few days. We both get the impression that the 570 is more comfortable, although the difference is small, it exists. I'm sorry that logitech have this bad policy, instead of continuing their successful products, to "Upgrade" them. I have a K350 keyboard from the same manufacturer. Extremely comfortable and ergonomic, all my friends want one, but Logitech no longer offers it. Instead, they offer "upgrades" again, but none of my friends prefer them compared to the k350.

I have both now, the Ergo at home and the M575 at the office.

So maybe you have a setup in your bedroom, leaving room, or maybe outside (on-sight somewhere) that a proper mouse would not function as well with nomal arm movement. It seemed odd to focus the reason on why you would buy this mouse becuase of pain caused buy using a standard mouse.

BTW, At least a regular mouse you are moving your hand around, unlike this trackball where your hand stays in one positions and with the wrist touching the desk, surely this adds to the pressure on the carpal tunnel.

Will you be trying the MX Ergo? There's a dpi switch button that you may find useful when needing to do those small/fine movements. Also could be because you aren't getting enough of an angle with the M575 especially if you found the Vertical comfortable, my wife uses the Vertical and loves it as she gets no wrist issues using it whereas I champion the Ergo and it's variants die to pain at my elbow. I feel you should give the Ergo a try because it has the adjustable angles and dpi switch that may improve your QOL when working. The Ergo plus which is apparently only available at Best Buy in the increases the angle another 10° which I would love to get a hold of but may just get someone to build a vertical base for it as I'm in Australia.

I can't use anything besides MX ERGO, to be honest I got so used to the precision button whenever I'm drawing with it, and the different angles. Sometimes in the cold I even put it on top of my lap under the blanket to navigate. I never used the M575 but I could see fro the video it is way more basic.

I have just gotten a Macbook Pro M2, and operate in a recliner, so a mouse, per se, isn't really practical. I have a Logitech M570, and the ball has never been very accurate. None of the mice/balls I have work well with the Mac. Have you used this with the Mac? How consistently does it work? Everything I have is sporadic. I don't really want to spend $100, and the track pad is painful to use, if used a lot. Thanks! This video, is not new, so I'm just crossing my fingers that someone with experience in this, will reply. Thanks!

I think it's also a question of habit and personal preference, I completely stopped using regular mice way back in 1996 when I got my first Trackman Marble, and in almost 3 decades I've only kept buying new trackballs, I get uncomfortable just by looking at people using a mouse. Excluding the wrist pose itself, why would you move your whole hand and forearm, instead of only your thumb? It's just inefficient.

I don't agree with you on the precision issues. I don't think that you are very familiar with using a roller ball stationary mouse.

I’m a software dev, plus i play pc games all the time. I think ill buy this one, my thumb might get tired I’m guessing.. but i think if my thumb get tired i can switch to trackpad for a bit. At least it wont be the wrist every time. Ill get the other model though. At least to have my wrist rest a lot more

Regarding the twisted wrist (pronation) thing though…. This mouse doesn’t really get your forearm out of that position “muscle knot “ causing position right? I been using a new contraption called a vertical mousepad where you use a regular mouse on that turns your arm 60 degrees. Check it out. I hope it helps you guys with your mouse using discomforts. It’s called orb control mouseramp.

Haven't tried this trackball yet but I tried the Ergo advanced. They totally ruined it for me with the software (and it didn't work with the old setpoint software) by removing the acceleration controls, I tried the windows acceleration and it just wasn't usable compared to the low acceleration setting I use in setpoint. I can't picture using a trackball without acceleration, it's too hard to make big movements otherwise. I've heard you can use third party software but instead of messing with any of that I just sent it back. Now I see they've completely replaced the m570 with this m575 which makes me nervous for the future. I've got 3 or 4 of the 570s laying around because the microswitches wear out fairly fast, I guess I'm going to have to start trying to repair those or go second hand.
