Should You buy the Logitech MX Ergo Trackball Mouse?

[@howdyhowdyhowdyhowdyhowdy]

I'd definitely buy if it had the silent click switches, logi bolt connector, usb c charging, infinite scroll, multi device pairing.... idk just seems very outdated, hopefully they release a new version soon!

[@TypeRyRy]

I currently have the M570 and I'm contemplating upgrading. I've used a trackball mouse for work and gaming for 15 years and will probably never go back to a traditional mouse.

[@RichardJoashTan]

I have the m570 too.

[@pavelperina7629]

Trackball for gaming? I have this for two weeks and i still find it awkward, slow and not particularly precise. I'll likely stick with touchpad on notebook, it has similar disadvantages, but it's closer to keyboard and more natural.

[@ardolLMTS79]

Same situation here. Wonder how is the cleaning on this mouse. M570 does build some dirt under the trackball and it pops out very easy for cleaning.

[@TheHornet79]

I bought this for my laptop since it hate the track pad. Make sure to turn on mouse acceleration for the trackball for precious.

Logitech should have made another version of the MX Ergo Trackball mouse with USB Type-C, and maybe another version that is cheaper as it uses AA batteries.

[@adamtalkstech]

Yeah it’s time for an upgrade

[@Kyranio]

It just came out! I wondered why there weren't many reviews on the new one yet: the MX Ergo S, but it seems like it just came out a few days ago. I think it's pretty much the same, according to some people online, but it has USB-C so that's nice!

[@landileite1]

I m use this mouse since 2021 and my shoulder is better now, I suffered problems related RSI when using a convectional mouse.

[@adamtalkstech]

Wow glad this one helped!!! The Mx master 3s helped my wrist pain a lot

[@l_tonz]

this is a great mouse. It take a while to get used to. but once you get past that phase, it is super ergonomic. and if you have a compact desk. you don't need to swipe around!

[@ThinkerOnTheBus]

1:02 Not only are the buttons programmable to perform different functions, but you can even program the buttons to be software specific, that is to say that you can have one button perform something like "close tab" in a browser, and then have it function as a stop button in a media player.

[@TechnoBoomer]

Thanks for this test. That said, in my humble opinion, when speaking of ergonomics, the best trackpad on the market is the Kensington Expert Mouse, followed by other Kensington trackballs models. See U soon. François

[@mr.yonosenada]

Nice review. They now have a USB-C version now!

[@adamtalkstech]

Send me a link. I can only find the mod where you put a new jack in.

[@GabeWilliams]

Been using this for almost a year now and it works great, but eventually it will start having pretty bad coil whine, a high pitched noise that doesn't stop unless you turn it off. Terrible if you record anything.

[@madgic111]

good for premiere pro or after effect ?.... or the new one from Logitech, without ball.... ?

[@viharm]

Is the scroll wheel infinite smooth scroll, or does it have slight clicks?

[@petervansan1054]

it has clicks (thank god)

[@ThinkerOnTheBus]

0:29 While the logitech MX Ergo does provide two different angles at which a user can utilize the mouse, the MX Ergo Plus version provides three different angles!

[@kenchung9529]

How about thumb fatigue using the trackball so frequently?

[@taleteller6362]

Been using this for over year, 10 hour day office job and never had thumb fatigue. For those who have never used one.. may take a week of use to really get used to it.

[@deeayeveeeyees]

been using the original one daily for over a decade now and no issues. and im a graphid designer so i use it a lot all day everyday!

[@kenchung9529]

I have been using on and off for several months and Im happy to say haven't gotten any thumb fatigue!

[@igor-zb9vd]

i spilled a drink on the mouse and now two buttons have stopped working ☹ It has been so many years and there is no new version

[@Mar-pee]

Mx ergo S, same price as ergo and has type-c

[@adamtalkstech]

Awesome I will get one and review it

[@TheCpufixer]

The best trackball ever made was the Microsoft Trackball Explorer. They should release a bluetooth version. I liked the fact that it was ergonomic and the ball was on top.

[@baritonoid]

I'll swear by the Trackman Marble FX

[@TheCpufixer]

@@baritonoid I had one of those before I discovered Microsoft's track ball.

[@Over0w0MeAmTheHotel]

im honestly surprised that trackball mice haven't evolved even further yet

[@adamtalkstech]

Yeah it seems about time.

[@supremen7041]

Does the trackball click? I mean, can I use it to select items on the screen?

[@adamtalkstech]

No click. Just movement.

[@supremen7041]

Thanks for the response 👍🏻

[@Daneriel]

But can I mark my text with the trackball while clicking / holding the left mouse button on the above with my index finger?

[@Msxcookiexmonsterxx3]

Yes you can ​@Daneriel

[@vinicus508]

I bought it thinking the ball was an ALTERNATIVE control for the mouse pointer lol. Canceled it after watching this, thanks haha. Ain’t no way I’m paying that much for a mouse that you move with a ball

[@gregghatten1611]

How does charging work? Can I use mx ergo while charging? Thanks.

[@igor-zb9vd]

of course

[@gregghatten1611]

Thank you.

[@bobby9568]

you didnt show trackball movement ugh

[@adamtalkstech]

Sorry

[@wordsshackles441]

Logitech MX ergo is garbage. Bought 2 years ago. Took good care of it. It has great ergonomics, and it's really comfortable, BUT the built quality is horrendous. After only 2 years of moderate use, the left mouse button and middle mouse button misfire all the time. Tried cleaning it, it keeps skipping clicks. It's awful. Can't even drag a window without trying multiple times. Similar problems with Logitech keyboards. I strongly recommend you stay away from Logitech products as a rule of thumb.

[@RichardJoashTan]

Not me, I will buy a logitech anyway.

[@salmanzakaria1029]

why you commenting the same shit in every video

[@masterkamen371]

This is the case with all Logitech mice, the switches are consistently rubbish. While I personally have a G502 that's been good for nearly the past decade, so many people have problems with the switches. If you don't know how to solder, and don't know how to replace said switches, just stay away from Logitech. There's stuff like the Xiaomi gaming mouse nowadays that's better quality at a quarter of the price.

[@masterkamen371]

​@@RichardJoashTanone has to love mindless fanboys

[@ThinkerOnTheBus]

0:19 Well, it isn't necessarily completely different from using any other mouse in regards to your conditions, for users should not be flicking their wrists left and right to move a mouse, for that will ultimately lead to pain. Your wrist should be stiff, and your left-right movements should come from your arm pivoting at your elbow. That is the correct way to utilize a mouse, for it is the least likely method to cause physical problems, although nearly everyone uses their mouse in this incorrect fashion. I just hope this guy here doesn't totally ignore one of the major features of this mouse, like I just witnessed Austin Evans having done!

[@chinolombia]

I stopped when you said not USB-C. Game changer...

[@judasblewit]

They 💯 need to update this mouse.

[@dision9470]

Don't be ridiculous. Its battery lasts up to four months.

[@MrGangsterlicious]

Micro usb? Are you serious. It’s a nice device but it’s too old to recommend at this time. The dude is just another sponsored cheap ass influencer. Sad!

[@TheHornet79]

It’s not a big deal if it’s not a usb c because it lasts for 4 months. USB c is always desired because of fast charge but the battery is great so it’s okay. Though it would have been better if it was because everyone has a USB C cable for their PC.

[@pooks333]

They have a usb c version now. Look at the Ergo S

[@bucketsAMF]

Stop praising built-in batteries. You fools.

[@adamtalkstech]

😨

[@laughingvampire7555]

MX ergo sucks if you love trackballs.
