Yeah, I know in previous reviews I said I overspent with foot pedals, buuuut. this is so nice. I bought it for work and my wrist just doesn't hurt like it did with my anker mouse, I want a rollermouse red but cannot afford that hefty price tag anytime soon so I bought this one and oh my word.
I love this trackball. They don't make too many with scroll wheels anymore. You download the software off the site and you can program each button. I programmed to web browse and go back a page by pressing both buttons at once. You can make it do whatever you need to.
User friendly; completely programmable
a little wide
This is an excellent trackball for first-time trackball users that would like to transition from using a mouse. The doctor recommended a trackball to alleviate my wrist pain, and I settled on this Orbit trackball after trying the older Orbit without the scroll ring.
Ergonomic design; Scroll ring that addresses the most frustrating problem with older trackball designs Solid build quality
No software included in the box
If you're at the computer for long hours, using this trackball is great relief for a painful wrist. I used one for more than 5 years at my last job. When the new employer didn't have them, I rushed to order my own. The price is great and worth every penny.
I bought the Kensington Oribit Optical Trackball mouse about 2 weeks ago and have had no problems with it to date. It was easy to hook up, no software to install with it and it's simple to use. The shape of it is nice, it fits right into the palm of your hand very comfortably.
Its too bad that the TrackBall Explorer is no longer being made. I wanted a trackball for a second computer and choose the Kensington because of the top mounted trackball and scroll capability. It works but will take time to "grow" on me.
Easy Connectivity; Fast Connection; Versatile
Flimsy
I would recommend this as a simple trackball that works well and is easy to use.
Ergonomic trackball that's easy to use
Wrist rest pops off pretty easily
I have a box filled with old cables and mice and etc... I bought them and they just didn't "feel right" or "work right." My hand naturally lays over this trackball and works with very little effort or movement. My next mouse/trackball will be this trackball too!
I love these trackballs. This is my third purchase of the Kensington trackball, this time for my computers at work. Good price and they do what I need done.
