Reliability

I've always preferred trackballs over mice and trackpads, but they've become difficult to find. I needed a new one for a MacBook Air and wanted to try a wireless trackball, even though I was nervous about jittery control and short battery life I've seen in older wireless trackballs.

I've been using Logitech's Track Ball since before it went "wireless"; well over 10 years. I went wireless with the Model M570 several years ago. I have one for each of my five PCs but needed another for my Chromebook.

I've had the wired version before this which came in handy when I had a wrist injury. I now use this wireless version when outputting my PC to the television. Great mouse, great standard features.

Excellent! I could never go back to a normal mouse after using this trackball. Several people at work have bought them after trying mine and are also well & truly converted! Build quality is superb and delivery from Novatech was super-fast, as always.

The M570 retails for about $50 ( Amazon Link ) at the time of posting. For a trackball style input device, you'd be hard pressed to find another along these lines. With the improvement in technology such as the laser tracking, Logitech will probably continue to see people that love trackballs flock...

If you're a long time reader of VH, then you all know by now that I hate mice. Literally, I just don't use mice, I don't personally review mice, nor do I get excited by a mouse. I am however completely addicted to my thumb controlled trackball.
