今まで様々なごろ寝マウス（エアマウス）を試してきましたが、そのいずれも壊れやすかったり機能を省略しすぎていたりと失望や不満の連続でした本製品ですがこれまでのごろ寝マウスと比較すると以下の点で素晴らしいと感じました・bluetooth対応・両手で使用可能、またそれが持ちやすさにも繋がっている・そして持ちやすさゆえに長時間の操作が全く苦にならない！・ボールが適度なゆるさ→勝手に外れるほどではないが、気軽に外して掃除できる・戻る/進むボタンがあり機能が省略されてない、一般的なマウスと遜色なく使える確信をもって言えますが、ごろ寝マウスの完成形と言っていいでしょうその上で敢えて欠点をあげるとすれば・電池式←とても惜しい点です。交換頻度はそこまで多くないですが電池を用意しなければいけません・ホイールのクリックのしにくさと横スクロール不可←多用する人にとっては、というくらいでしょうか。別段不便さを感じるほどではありませんウン万円するようなゲーミングマウスのような多機能さはありませんが、それでも並のマウスとして使うのには十分な機能が揃っています何より戻る/進むボタンの存在は有り難いですし、音量調整までできるので低価格マウスと比較すればかなりの出来ですどうやら販売終了となってしまったようですが、今後もエレコムさんには後継機種を出して欲しいです改善する点は軽微なものばかりなのでボタンの配置はあまりいじらずマイナーアップデートくらいがちょうどいいですねとにかく唯一無二と言っていいトラックボールなので今後も市場に供給し続けてください、切にお願いします！

Lo ordene como remplazo del anterior, este tiene mejores acabados, a pesar de ser mas pesado funciona muy bien, Seria genial que se pudiera conectar a varios dispositivos bluetooth.

Here are my operating system specifications:* Hardware: MacBook Pro 2020, Apple M1 Chip* Software: macOS Ventura 13.5.1UPDATE: After 5 days of heavy use (10+ hours per day), there are a only two issues I've noticed that have no impact on my love for this device, but that I'd like to share to make sure others who experience these issues do not become frustrated.Issue #1: Continuous heavy pressure on the left or right side of the wheel can cause the wheel to slide slightly ajar, degrading the function of the wheel and whichever button the wheel has been pushed towards. I was pressing my thumb on the right side of the wheel unconsciously, and found that eventually this pushed the wheel towards the left, causing some accidental clicks of the left arrow "Issue #2: After turning the mouse off and then back on, sometimes the key functions revert to the default. I custom programmed the left-arrow "" as left-click and right-click, respectively, because I have no use for the "back" and "forward" web browser functions that are the default. I also reprogrammed all of the media player buttons to more useful actions (e.g. Copy, Paste, Undo, Redo, and Tab). For the most part, the custom-programmed buttons all function as expected. Occasionally, however, I have to re-open the "ELECOM_Mouse_Util" GUI and click "Apply" to re-apply all of my customizations. The GUI remembers all of my button preferences, so I don't have to do any tedious resetting in the GUI, I just have to quickly open it up and click "Apply," and my customizations are automatically applied to the device. I recommend keeping the GUI in your dock (on Mac) for convenience, since you might have to do this a couple times a day.Other than that, I just recommend being disciplined about resting the device upright on its docking station when you switch to the keyboard. I've been lazily setting it in my lap, where it shifts around, activating the rollerball and moving my cursor around the screen. This is my fault, not the device.These are the only issues I've noticed in the past five days. On the upside, I've noticed that updating dense software code files has gotten WAY easier. After updating the media player buttons to my most frequently needed actions while coding (Copy, Paste, Undo, Redo, and Tab), I find that I can make most of my code updates with my hands resting in my lap or at my sides, and only spend about 20% of the time actually touching the keyboard. I'm able to go a lot longer now without any numbness or pain setting into my wrists and hands.ORIGINAL:I have only been using this little thing for an hour and I am already crying tears of relief. I have been searching for a device with this exact design for three years, and I cannot believe it actually exists. After installing the utility software, the mouse worked immediately, right out of the box. The software package seems to have auto-detected my default OS language, and the program opened in English (no need to select "English" as the default language, as indicated in earlier reviews). I also did not need to download Rosetta 2 to get this to work on my MacBook Pro, even though I have an M1 chip (as indicated on the manufacturer website). The mouse was so easy to use, that I actually used the device itself to customize its own functionality through the utility GUI. I am shocked at the level of customizability across the 10 (!) onboard buttons, and how easy it is to quickly update this functionality in the utility GUI. If you look at ergonomic keyboards with comparable customizability, you will find that (1) they are very, very expensive, and (2) full customization usually requires some code, and cannot be achieved with a simple, user-friendly GUI. In my opinion, the GUI software that accompanies this little device is easily worth an additional $300.00.The "loose trackball" complaints are unfounded. The trackball slightly lifts out of the cradle when you tilt it > 90 degrees on its side (or upside-down). It DOES NOT fall out of the cradle, even if you hold it upside-down and shake it violently. This is how all trackball devices work. You can read reviews of the highest-rated trackball mice on Wirecutter, and you'll find the same issue. A "tighter" fitting trackball design would have reduced functionality, and you would not be able to pop the ball out to clean it (which you do actually need to do every so often, as gross stuff gets trapped in there and degrades functionality after a while). When I use this mouse with my arms straight down at my sides, the trackball lifts slightly out of the cradle. I do not find that this affects the functionality at all. The trackball still settles exactly where I left it (it doesn't continue "spinning around" when it lifts out of the cradle) and the on-screen pointer position is stable. If you're really having issues with pointer precision, decrease the DPI.The design of the device is so intuitive that I didn't require a single minute of acclimation. My hands just sort of knew what to do, even though I have never owned a trackball-style mouse in my life. I found that I naturally started switching between using my thumb and my forefinger to operate the trackball. So, I changed the "back" and "forward" buttons on either side of the scroll wheel to "left" and "right" click. This allows me to constantly change my grip on the device, which lets me switch off between types of movement in my thumb and forefinger. This sort of rotation between types of movement, and between hands, is critical for managing my the symptoms of my repetitive strain injuries.I need to use a computer mouse continuously 10-14 hours per day, 7 days a week, in order to do my job. I often have to do difficult design work that requires precise control over graphics in clunky presentation and statistical software (e.g. STATA's graphic editor GUI that is unavoidable given the limits of code-based graphics customization). Unfortunately, I have severe carpal *and* cubital tunnel nerve compression on both sides, complicated by a botched surgery on the right side that resulted in tendonitis and neuropathy (my medial, ulnar, and radial nerves are all damaged). Holding my elbow bent at a 90-degree angle causes my ring and little finger to go numb, and severe stabbing pains in the knuckle of my ring finger and in my upper forearm. Articulating or putting any pressure on my elbows also causes pain and numbness. Any pressure on my wrist, or continuous finger articulation, or gripping, causes my thumb, forefinger, and middle finger to go numb, and causes pain in the base of my thumb, in my palm, and in the back of my wrist.So, pretty much any desktop mouse exacerbates my symptoms, no matter how "ergonomic" the design (vertical, trackball, rollermouse bar, external trackpad, pen-shaped mouse, whatever). I need a mouse that I can use in either hand without having to exert a lot of force, without having to articulate my fingers very much, and while letting my arms hang at my sides. Until today, I thought this was an impossible request. This mouse feels like it was made specially for me.Additional features and responses to earlier reviews:* My Mac is able to track and display the battery level in the Bluetooth settings, so if you use rechargeable batteries and carry around an extra pair and/or a little charger, this thing will be just as convenient as any wireless peripheral that takes a usb charge.* The scroll wheel customization is great. You can set up "flywheel" to work in any program. Flywheel auto-scrolls in whatever direction you were turning the wheel at the time it was activated. The number of "revolutions" is the number of times you need to rotate the wheel to activate flywheel. You can choose from 1-5 revolutions. The scrolling speed is how quickly the page scrolls automatically when flywheel is activated. I messed around with these settings a bit and was able to get close to the two-finger flywheel scroll I'm used to on my Mac trackpad, but found that I actually prefer a slower auto-scroll.* The buttons are actually infinitely customizable. The only restriction is that at least one button on the device (can be any of the 10) is reserved for left-click. The other 9 buttons can be programmed to do whatever you want. For each button, you can select "arbitrary key" and then program a set of commands that will be executed by that button. You can also select a "gesture" button, and then use the Gesture tab of the GUI to set up gestures. Basically, you select sets of commands that will be executed whenever you are holding down the "gesture" button and perform some on-screen gesture with the mouse.* It is lightweight, not "cheap." If you have an RSI or arthritis, you will appreciate how lightweight the device is. Heaviness is not an indicator of quality. Buttons are responsive without requiring very much force, and provide the satisfying "mechanical" feedback clicks that haptic devices just can't reproduce. The "skin" is also slightly grainy (versus slick) which makes it easier to grip loosely, even in sweaty hands. The trackball itself is substantially heavy and does not float around in the cradle.

El dispositivo:Lo primero no es un trackball "primario"... vamos que esta pensado como complemento a tu trackball-raton habitual. Tengo varios ratones de la marca elecom, y casi todos tienen problemas de fricción estática (cuesta mover la bola una vez que esta parada). Este caso desde el primer día esta funcionando muy bien. En los elecom "grandes" he tenido que cambiar las bolas... con la consiguiente perdida de garantía.Usos:Suelo dar charlas y hacer presentaciones y para este cometido es un magnificco complemento del puntero laser. Te permite pasar diapositivas, hacer zoom, señalar en pantalla, es ideal para este uso.Se puede conectar con el ipad, por lo que te permite usarlo tambien como señalador. También se puede conectar con dispositivo android tipo tv box.He probado a usarlo como dispositivio secundario... y tambien es muy util. Cuando me duele la muñeca derecha, cojo el trackball en la izquierda y lo uso para mover zoom y pasar adelante y atras. Te libera de mucho estress al quitar la rueda del ratón principal.Otro uso intensivo que le doy es para pasar páginas del lector de libros (onyx boox note), si estás preparando oposiciones o similar sabras de lo que estoy hablando.Conectividad:La conexión es via bluetooth, hay otro modelo similar con una pastilla RF. Si lo vas a usar con ipad, android y demás el modelo bluetooth es más versatil. Si tu pc no tiene bluetooth pues tienes que buscarte un usb- tarjeta bluetooth primero.En genral es un buen dispositivo, siempre que tengas claro que no es dispositivo principal sino una ayuda a tus otros ratones, trackball o lo uses.

Ich finde die Maus sehr toll. Genau so hatte ich mir selbst eine designed gehabt als ich die hier gefunden habe. Weiß jemand zufällig die genauen Maße für die eingebaute Kugel?

I switched to using a thumb trackball mouse from a logical technology company years ago. I was happy with it until recently when wrist aches made me turn back to the idea of a handheld trackball mouse. Previously I had tried a couple different units that featured a tiny, green trackball. Both units felt like junk and operated even worse.This time I was specifically looking for a bluetooth handheld trackball mouse so I didn't need a dongle tying up a USB slot on my laptop all the time. This Elecom unit turned out to be precisely what I was looking for.I am delighted with the functionality and features. The build quality feels on par with any logical technology trackball mouse and the performance merits the price. Initial setup was easy enough (despite foreign language instructions) and now when I turn it on, it connects to my laptop almost instantly.I'm happy with all the default button functions. I have smaller hands and find the device comfortable and easy to use. The tracking is spot on and I've been able to use it for work and play without issue. This mouse has several more buttons than I had before and I'm finding them all quite useful.I like that it uses AAA batteries as opposed to a built-in rechargeable. I'd rather swap out a couple batteries every 8 months than have to plug it in and wait. Not to mention I can pull the batteries for long term storage, if necessary. Also, those rechargeable batteries can only charge so many times before they fail, and good luck finding a replacement when it does. Alkalines for the win! Same goes for gasoline... But I digress.It's a great mouse, it's got a lot of features, seems of adequate quality, and is well worth the asking price. I read a complaint about the ball moving when the mouse is tilted to the side. I notice the slight movement as mentioned, but it has no impact on performance and I can use the mouse at almost any angle my hand can hold it without a problem. Holding it upside down, the ball will rise slightly before functioning as normal, but why on earth would you hold it upside down?Also worthy of note is that I can have the mouse and my headphones both connected to my laptop simultaneously without any issues. I cannot connect both my headphones and a bluetooth gamepad at the same time without problems, so I was concerned about that when I ordered this mouse.

Ma copine ayant une tendinite à l'épaule, cette souris convient parfaitement car elle n'est plus obligée de lever le bras. Elle est légère et ergonomique. Bien penser à avoir un adaptateur bluetooth et installer le logiciel ELECOM pour paramétrer la souris comme il faut.
