leaning over"works well but to be a five star product this would need to be slightly more upright in design the angle requires your wrist and forearm to be slightly leaning over to the left which i find is not the perfect position to remove wrist and hand strain"

wrist issue"i was initially wary of the change of hand position but my fears have proved unfounded as even after prolonged use the wrist issue has improved considerably and the more upright position for my hand is feeling more 'normal'"

disappointed outside that"couple that with the fact that i don't find the vertical ergonomic shape comfortable and it means i'm pretty disappointed outside that it is a well made piece of kit looks nice and so far the battery life has been very good plus points for its auto shutdown and if you were using it on a desk i'm sure it would be great"

68.3% |
behave itself"i'm not convinced that it's *quite* as accurate as my old mouse but that cost about ten times as much and be warned that if you have a high resolution mouse pad like then you may find that the cursor jumps all over the place but try the mouse without a pad or with a plain pad and you should find that it starts to behave itself"
|
68.3% |

glaring issues"though on initial use some glaring issues arrised: the mouse is really not good for people with bigger hands i found it very hard to use this for more then a little bit at a time as i was constantly having to regrip the mouse and stop my hand from getting squashed as i tried to get all my fingers resting on it most notible is my pinky finger as time went on my fingers would push against my pinky and i found it getting numb there is no room to place it"
