Wow, this is an Amazing Mouse.
I didn’t know a small mouse could make a huge difference to the speed up the work.
I’m loving it. There is no second thought.
Bought this mouse for work since using a my laptop’s touchpad from 9 to 5 was just not great. The TECNKET mouse was a nice change, had a bigger range of motion and my wrist wouldn’t cramp up either. Easy to transport in my work bag, too.
It’s easy to get used to using. The only thing I found is it’s really sensitive to movement and if you move it slightly you miss the target you need to point the mouse at. There are buttons on the side and this seems to tone down the issue. The mouse has a nice feel to it too. The other thing I would say is using a mouse mat with wrist rest didn’t work for me, so I’ve gone back to using a mouse mat which is just flat. Overall it’s a good purchase and wireless so even better.
It was arrived on time, the support department was very helpful, I receive a replacement in no time when I had some problem with the item.
I am Happy over all
This is certainly value for money. I own a few separate types and this seems to be the best by far. It is much better than some of some of the named brands. I am unable to comment on long term usage.
This is maybe my 8th or 9th vertical mouse, and while it its well in the hand and feels nice to use, I initially thought it had the similar technology that Logitech use in their MX Master mice, that if you leave it alone it’ll power off, but once you move it it’ll wake up… this was a game changer for my mice as having to click (or right-click to avoid accidental clicks) to wake got frustrating… the problem is that it doesn’t have this, instead, the mouse is “awake” ALL OF THE TIME!!!
I suppose this might seem like an advantage, which is it for use, but DEFINITELY isn’t for battery life – I’ve just had to replace the batteries after THREE WEEKS OF USE!!! This means Id end up using around 35-36 AAA batteries per year, which is rediculous!
I’m DEFINITELY going to find another mouse as this battery life is beyond terrible, which is a pity as it’s not a bad mouse apart from tha
I’ve worked with computers for years in my personal and professional life and do spend far too much time tapping away on a keyboard or clicking a mouse. I’ve used an erganomc keyboard for years and really feel the benefit once I have to revert to a standard keyboard but haven’t taken that plunge with a mouse, until now.
My job revolves around the computer so my hand is usually holding a mouse 6ish hours a day, I noticed that my wrist and thumb would start giving me pain every now and again, nothing serious but enough to notice. I had tried compression gloves which eased the feeling but didn’t cure the symptom and that lead me looking for an ergonmic mouse. Now, I’m stingy so naturally I did not want to spend a fortune and after reading many reviews and eliminiating a number of big names such as Logitech, Microsoft and Anker I went with Tecknet (from whom I also own a bluetooth laptop mouse).
The first few hours of use with the mouse felt odd, not in a bad way, simply that it is different to holding a standard mouse as one might expect. I’ve now been using the mouse for three months as I write this and I have experience no pain in my wrist or thumb since and colleagues have even been pursuaded to purchase one of their own after seeing mine when in the office.
Setup is as simple as plugging in the USB dongle, adding a couple of AA batteries (some good rechargables will do well, three months in and I’ve not changed them yet) then you are all set to click away in comfort.
Overall it is a no-frills comfortable and easy to use mouse, absolutely give it a go!
Addendum 1.5 years later: It’s still going in mostly good working order. I’m amazed actually by how clean it’s managed to stay, just a little dust on the ends of the buttons. Battery life has remained consistently good, you just have to right-click (a null action) all the time to wake it. What hasn’t stood up as well to the rigours of time is the mouse wheel, as with a lot of mice it must be said, it suffers from slip so doesn’t always detect the movement particularly if it’s fine movement (I’ve tended to push slightly from the top and I’ve noticed if you push slightly from the bottom it is still working). I have had problems with using it with gaming. I play sims a lot, and the amount of detailed movement will strain your wrists. So I am knocking it off a point for that. For anyone looking for alternatives that solve some of these issues – do consider the Evoluent VerticalMouse D, though it’s a lot heavier, and there’s always the 3M ergo mouse which remains unbeaten, in my view, at ergonomics.
