The Logitech MX Vertical Wireless Mouse is an outstanding ergonomic mouse that truly reduces wrist and forearm strain. Its vertical design feels natural and comfortable, even during long hours of use, making it a great choice for anyone concerned about repetitive strain or discomfort. The mouse connects seamlessly via Bluetooth or the included USB receiver, and the ability to switch between three different devices is incredibly convenient for multitasking. The precision and smooth tracking make it excellent for both work and creative tasks. Overall, this mouse combines comfort, functionality, and versatility in one sleek package. It’s well worth the investment for anyone looking to improve ergonomics and productivity.

Below is the script for my video review on Youtube (under title: Logitech MX Vertical Mouse - 30 Days Going Vertical). I purchased this with my own money and this is an unbiased take. Thank you :) Vertical mice have been around for some time now, but this is the first one Logitech has ever created. Logitech is known for making very nice, high quality peripherals at an affordable price. Their MX line for lack of a better term is their flagship line and typically comes at a higher cost. But at that high cost you’re getting better features, a built-in battery, a unique/premium design and the overall craftsmanship is just better. And this mouse is no different. Overall the body of the mouse is composed from a plastic polymer which allows it to be equal parts durable and light as it comes in at around 135 grams. The portion of the mouse where your hand rests on and interfaces with has this nice texturized, rubber coating. This texturized surface allows for improved grip and allows the overall end user experience to be that much more comfortable. The MX vertical mouse has 6 buttons in total, 4 of which are customizable via Logitechs downloadable application. Along the right edge is standard left and right buttons and in between is the scroll wheel. The scroll wheel is depressible, customizable and has that same rubber coating as the rest of the mouse. It is buttery smooth, has a subtle click and feels so nice when turning it. Along the left edge there is two more customizable buttons. These are just above where your thumb lies and are easy to reach, even if you have smaller hands. Along the top edge just adjacent Logitech’s branding is our last customizable button. This is also easily within reach and comes setup as a DPI adjuster out of the box. This button allows you to toggle between 2 different DPI settings, both of which can be adjusted by holding down the button and moving the mouse. The DPI range of this mouse is extremely impressive. It can cover as low as 400 dots per inch or a maximum of 4000 dots per inch. This is helpful for a few reasons: firstly the higher the DPI you can achieve the more area you can cover when moving your mouse. This is convenient when you have a larger monitor such as an ultrawide or when using a 4k monitor as you can cover more pixels with less movement. Higher DPI is usually emulated via settings within the software but this results in less smooth movement which is important for professional work or while gaming. And less movement feeds into the main ideology of this mouse. Higher dpi allows for less movement which is less strain on your wrist, resulting in a more comfortable experience. This is the main reason why this mouse exists: to minimize strain on your wrist and increase the overall comfort. It does this by allowing for a higher DPI range but mainly by altering the way your hand rests on the mouse. The average mouse orients your hand parallel with the surface. In order to achieve this position your forearem twists and is forced into a pronated position. This causes stress on a major muscle in your wrist, the pronator quadratus. This muscle (along with the pronator teres) is responsible for turning your wrist inward and maintaining this pronated position. Not only is your wrist stressed but in order to maintain this position your elbow is forced to flare away from your body causing a secondary strain on your deltoid, which in turn causes a tertiary strain on your upper back near your scapula. In order to relieve this strain, Logitech has re-oriented the angle at which your hand rests on the mouse. Rather than being parallel with the surface, the mx vertical mouse is oriented at a 57-degree angle. This is a more natural position for your wrist to be in and helps reduce strain greatly. Not only does this reduce the strain in your wrist, it also helps keep your elbow tucked closer to your body, allowing your deltoid to relax, and further preventing it from causing strain on your upper back. In terms of connecting the mouse you have 3 options: you can connect wirelessly via Bluetooth or with this included usb dongle. And lastly you can hard wire in with the included USB type-C cable. The usb type c port also allows for charging. The mouse has a 240mAh battery and Logitech claims you can get 4 months of battery life on a single charge and I actually think this is accurate. Over the 35 days I have owned this mouse, I have used it 2-6 hours on a given day and have put roughly 80 hours of use on my first charge. And according to logitech’s desktop application my battery is still near full. Only time will tell if it actually survives 3 more months without needing to reach for the cable but as of now it’s excellent! The MX vertical mouse is also capable of connecting up to 3 devices as it has an easy-switch selector on the bottom. This is nice if you’re wanting to use this across multiple computers and it switches effortlessly whether you’re on a pc or mac. Overall this mouse is great. It attempts to provide a more comfortable, ergonomic experience and reduce strain in your wrist and I have to be honest I was skeptical at whether or not this would even achieve that goal. I mean I’ve never had any wrist issues before would I actually benefit from this? The answer is a resounding yes. After using this mouse for just over a month I can comfortably say this mouse will provide you with a more comfortable experience and it will make you aware that you are causing stress to your wrist. Just transitioning from the mx vertical mouse to my keyboard, I can feel a drastic difference in my wrist. It immediately becomes strained when typing and relief is found when I go back to using the mouse. If you have any wrist or arthritic issues definitely give this mouse a look, it may just provide the relief you need. I know I won’t be going away from mine anytime soon.

Other not completely flat mice claim to be "ergonomic", but the only way to completely remove stress from your forearm when using a mouse is with a "vertical" mouse. My 2020 K75575WW Kensington ergonomic vertical mouse developed a problem with the left button "stuttering" so that it sent multiple button clicks when pressed just once. I liked the Kensington quite a bit. But it always just a little bit on the "not quite as solid as I would like" side, and failing after just 2.5 years confirmed this. So I wanted a more solidly build mouse. A search for "ergonomic mouse review" showed that the Logitech MX Master 3S was clearly the best ergonomic mouse available. At $100 it was several times more expensive as others including the latest Kensington vertical mouse. But sometimes furgal doesn't mean the least expensive. Sometimes it can mean the most expensive if that comes with better performance, features and lifespan. So I ordered it. And while it is indeed an incredible mouse, the angle is only about 20 degrees. The result is that while there is some reduction in forearm stress compared to a flat mouse, it wasn't enough for me. By the end of my very long days driving my mouse almost as much as I drive my keyboard, I could feel the tension building up in my forearm. So after a week I returned it and bought this Logitech MX Vertical. It is slightly less expensive than the MX Master 3S, but still much more expensive relative to other options. And while it is lighter and a little less substantial feeling in my hand than the MX Master 3S, it still feels very firm and solid. Most importantly keeps my hand in the neutral position with my fingers at about 70 degrees. A great feature of the MX Vertical shares with the MX Master 3S is the thumb rest. The Kensington didn't have this and so my thumb rested on the desktop. If it was a bit warm and my hands would sweat my thumb wouldn't slide smoothly and I would have to lift my thumb off the desk when I went to move the mouse. Not a horrible thing, but if you spend 8+ hours mousing around it gets tiresome. The button clicks are crisp. Best of all when the button bottoms out it feels like it is pressing against the case. It doesn't feel like travel is being limited by the switch itself bottoming out like the Kensington felt like it did. My hope is that this will keep the switch from wearing out so fast as happened with the Kensington. One slight negative of the MX Vertical is that I don't feel like I am quite as accurate in being able to move the cursor to a specific spot on the screen without some amount of conscious effort. Instead it doesn't go exactly in the direction I intended and overshoots where wanted it to stop. As such it might not make the best mouse for video games. [UPDATE: There is a bit of a learning curve in moving the mouse accurately. In the last couple weeks my need to make a more conscious effort to move the mouse to a specific spot on the screen is going down. Still think it is likely to not be as accurate as a flater mouse]

Excelente, a bateria dura muito (uso o dia todo todos os dias e carrego ele 1 vez por semana mais ou menos). Zero dores no pulso e a sensibilidade e ótima até em jogos Botões laterais super práticos e funcionais, honestamente o melhor mouse que já tive

Great product for bigger palms. Reduces the strain in the wrist.

Es muy cómodo trabajar con este tipo de mouse. Antes de comprarlo me preocupaba el hecho de que no me fuera a acostumbrar, sin embargo es el único mouse que he utilizado desde que me llegó. El primer día lo hice para forzarme a utilizarlo, los siguientes días me sentía incómodo con mi anterior mouse ( Corsair M65 ). Aún no puedo asegurar que la batería, una vez cargada completamente, le dura 4 meses puesto que apenas tengo con él 3 semanas. Los materiales son de muy buena calidad y es muy agradable al tacto. Su configuración es muy sencilla. Tengo, además, un trackball Logitech ERGO M575, el cual es también muy cómodo sin embargo no lo utilizo para diseño puesto que no tiene la misma precisión. Tuve alguna vez un problema con el reconocimiento de los dispositivos a través de Logitech Unifying, el cual solucioné instalando la aplicación SetPoint, también de Logitech. Además se puede conectar a través de Bluetooth o a través del cable USB-C ( incluído ), lo cual es una gran ventaja. Cabe mencionar que, a diferencia del ERGO M575, el MX Vertical Mouse no cuenta con el compartimiento para guardar la antena Unifying. El mouse es muy ligero. Quizás me hubiera gustado que fuera ligeramente más pesado pero no es un inconveniente. Es cómo tanto en manos pequeñas como grandes. No he utilizado la característica de Logitech Flow, así que no puedo opinar al respecto.

One of the best if not the best mouse i have owned.

One of the best, alot of options that make every thing so easy
