Logitech Ergo M575 Wireless Trackball Mouse Review

I was disappointed to learn that logitech had discontinued the M570 trackball, but the M575 is even better. It has built-in bluetooth or dongle (usb) connectivity.

Logitech does not disappoint. Great Key/Mouse combo. Ergo freindly.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used a trackball mouse for years, this is my first wireless trackball and I love it.

I have had many many Logitech keyboards and mice. A few months ago, I got new MX Ergo blue ball mouse and this keyboard. I love it of course. However, once desktop goes into sleep mode, and I wake it up...the keyboard does not wake, I have to unplug and replug it in to the USB hub. I believe it is because the in line resistors, needs more juice to start. Is it an over sized capacitor in there? Does anyone know? This keyboard is mechanical, with large high keys and sound. But I believe it is best for my messy desk. And looks fabulous next to the MXErgo mouse. What a pair! I made a custom shelf for both that can swing out easily. (Cedar wood with curves and sanded corners and edges).

Logitech M310 wireless mouse very stylish and comfortable.

Love this wireless trackball Mouse,the ball rolls so smoothly, like silk, this mouse works like a charm We love it thank you

I am so grateful to have found the Kensington Trackball. I bought it to replace two Logitech trackballs that I had previously owned (the M570 and the Ergo M575). I had to go online to find the Kensington because all of our local stores only carry Logitech. The Kensington is brilliant. Once you learn how to customize the trackball using Kensington's software, it's easy to find the most comfortable angle for your wrist. The Kensington is solid and heavy, which I like. It stays in place on your desktop. The USB dongle connects the mouse without disruption. And I like the scroll wheel. The Kensington itself is more intuitive to use than you would think, and (hopefully) it will last a long time. It comes with a manufacturer 3-year warranty, which is the longest manufacturer warranty that I have seen on trackball mice of any brand. This mouse is definitely worth the price. I take online classes and write computer programs, so this trackball mouse helps a lot with relieving wrist and forearm pain. It's worth the investment. It takes a few days to get used to it, but once you do, it's doubtful that you will go back to other mice, trackpads, and such.

I've always used a trackball over a mouse. No need for extensive desk real estate. This is my second Orbit, one on home desktop and one on work desktop, both of which replaced Logitech Trackman trackballs. The Logitech was good but no scroll ring. I also have two Kensington Expert Mouse trackballs on editing machines. These are the best but a little pricey. The Kensington Trackball Works software also makes it easy to customize your user preferences and responsiveness.

I've been using Kensington trackballs for about 16 years. I forget what they called the with one with the wheels but that was my first. I moved to expert mouse when optical technology came out. I still use an Expert Mouse wireless, an Expert Mouse, and now this SlimBlade. Believe me folks NOBODY makes a trackball as smooth as Kensington. I got this SlimBlade to use with my HP laptop because I just couldn't stand the products offered by Microsoft and Logitech. The SlimBlade has a unique way of scrolling by twisting the ball and after two weeks I see the death of the scroll wheel on the horizon - it's that intuitive. If you want a trackball save the money you'll waste on a MS or Logitech ball and pay the few dollars more for the Kensington. You won't go back.

I have owned Logitech trackball mouses since 2000. Most I loved, a few I used but recognized some issues. In general, I consider a thumb based trackball mouse to be the best out there. It uses a thumb which can rotate in any direction and is built for fine motor skills unlike the wrist driven mice. Here's why I like this particular mouse and call it the best I've ever had: 1. Everything is well built and works without issues. The ball itself swivels easily. It's easy to clean. The buttons work. It sticks to the desk and doesn't move 2. Bluetooth is a dream. It connects easily to my Mac and stays connected. It's just rock solid in that way. 3. Battery life is long. I have usually forgotten the last time I replaced the battery by the time I swap in a new pair. I was a bit worried because I wanted to use bluetooth and Logitech warns that bluetooth connections consume more battery than their proprietary connector 4. It's easy to use Mac config to set tracking speed, scrolling speed, and double click speed. Overall, this is the best mouse I've owned.
