Features and Benefits of the Expert Mouse TB800 EQ Trackball include:
- Flexible Navigation Options for Personalized Control - An adjustable scroll ring enables users to effortlessly switch between line-by-line and smooth scrolling. Two customizable side scrolls provide horizontal scrolling and zooming, and a convenient switch makes it easy to disable scrolling to reduce accidental inputs.
- Exceptional Optical Tracking Technology - The large 55 mm ball provides highly accurate and responsive tracking with minimal hand and wrist movement. An adjustable polling rate up to 1 kHz via wired or dongle connection delivers ultra-responsive performance for accurate control.
- Ambidextrous Design - Supports all-day comfort for both right- and left-handed users with average to large-sized hands. The trackball operates in less desk space than a mouse and promotes greater comfort during extended use by minimizing arm and wrist movement.
- Wireless and Wired Connection to Multiple Devices - Connect up to four devices using two wireless Bluetooth connections, one wireless 2.4 GHz connection with government-grade 128-bit AES encryption, and one wired USB-C connection, and instantly switch between computers and tablets without the need for re-pairing.

only 2, which causes issues playing No Mans Sky. Have to have an additional traditional mouse plugged in to get the
center key so I can drop items. I wish Logitech would update their Marble Mouse---not on the website anymore, and Amazon
is wanting 199.95 for one o_O
And trackball mouse from logitech is not that user friendly as I thought, maybe it will be better :)
I just hope that price won't be that high.
All the other ones are ergonomically awkward to use and gives you some other kind of issues, although this Kensington one is less bad than the ones that forces you to use your thumb to move the ball.
Love that little window it has for your thumb to grab the ball as well.
on this product, I recently bought a Nulea M512 which resembles this quite a bit but....I just dont know how people use it, I find it EXTREMELY uncomfrtable, just hits wrist angle up and this top down orientation....Idk I just hate it but soooo many seem to love it
