    Has anyone tried so-called "vertical" mice?

    I'd not heard of these devices until very recently, but it seems that Logitech have a fairly expensive "vertical" mouse for use with computers, though other manufacturers have followed suit.

    Has anyone any experience of this kind of thing? The obvious claims are that these will reduce hand/wrist strain, and as I know people who have had trouble of this nature, are any of these any good, and is it really worth the bother?

    Fairly cheap Anker model - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Anker-Wirel..._t1_B07FNHV4MW under £20

    Logitech model - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Logitech-Ve...mputers&sr=1-3 over £90

    I use Apple magic mice right now, but I suppose if there were a better option - particularly from the point of view of reducing strains etc., I'd certainly go for one, and perhaps not just for myself, but for others who may find they get more problems than I currently do.

    Yes, I looked at these two last year. Went for the cheaper Anker one as I wasn’t sure how I’d get on with it.

    It’s great. Took an hour or two to get used to, and a bit longer to get my click accuracy back to normal, but I wouldn’t go back to a normal one now. It resolved my finger pain but everyone has different aches and pains in different places so I couldn’t say it would work for everyone.

    I’d say try the Anker, if it breaks after a year or two but you like the concept, buy the Logitech.
