Now onto its fourth iteration, the latest VerticalMouse looks and feels like a premium device, with the features and price tag to match.Īs well as the left/right/middle buttons at the front, there are a pair of forward/back buttons below the spot where your thumb sits, and a button for cycling through the four sensitivity settings. View On Amazon View On Walmart View On B&H Photo VideoĮvoluent has been the biggest player in vertical mice for a long time, steadily improving its signature models every few years. Well-priced and with a lifetime warranty, this is a good, no-fuss vertical mouse option for those with smaller hands. It works on Windows, MacOS and Linux, although as with most other non-Apple mice, the forward/back buttons don't work out of the box. The reduced size doesn't mean a reduced set of features, however, with three sensitivity settings, forward/back buttons and a focus on quiet operation.Ĭonnecting via a standard USB-A receiver, the mouse uses a single AA battery (not included), and the receiver fits inside the battery compartment when not in use. This Jelly Comb vertical mouse is specifically designed for people with small hands, and comes in both left and right-handed versions, in a small range of colors. Many are made for so-called "average" hand sizes, and if yours is bigger or smaller, those models won't be particularly comfortable. It has the same five-button setup (with the same back/forward limitations on MacOS), and adjustable sensitivity - only two levels, in this case, rather than three on the wireless version.Īgain, left-handers are sadly left out, as there's only a right-handed model available.ĭue to their design, and because many people buy them to help deal with wrist pain, it's very important to choose the right size of vertical mouse for your hand. As expected, it's a few dollars cheaper, and the nearly five-foot cable is long enough for almost every desk and computer setup. Realizing this, Anker has replicated its successful wireless vertical mouse in a wired model, and it's just as good. They're also more reliable, without the disconnections and slow response times that sometimes plague wireless models. Wired mice are typically a little cheaper, since they don't need the extra electronics inside, and you never need to worry about the battery going flat at a vital moment. That doesn't make them perfect for every situation, though.
Wireless mice have become the standard in recent years, and for good reason: without a cable, they're smaller and easier to use.
