00:20So, are you ready to find the best ergonomic mouse for your needs?
00:24And here are the top 5 best ergonomic mouses you can buy in 2023.
00:29For more information the products, we've included links in the description box down below.
00:45Anker Wireless Vertical
00:48The Anker 2.4G Wireless Vertical Ergonomic Optical Mouse is an unabashedly low-cost mouse that,
00:54while lacking features of more expensive models,
00:57provides excellent ergonomic support thanks to its vertical grip design that follows the natural resting position of the hand and wrist.
01:04The mouse has three DPI settings, 800, 1200, 1600,
01:10adjustable thanks to a switch located on the ridge that runs along the top of the mouse.
01:15Not the most generous spread of DPI settings, it must be said, but enough to satisfy most.
01:21We are looking at left and right, click, scroll wheel, DPI switch, back and forward on the button front.
01:27Unfortunately, these aren't customizable.
01:30While the mouse is a wireless device, it's powered by a pair of AAA batteries.
01:35Not the most modern solution, but one that offers a few months of regular use thanks to a power-saving mode that kicks in after 8 minutes of inactivity.
01:43Like other vertical mice, smaller hands will struggle to reach all the buttons, so we recommend it only for larger hands.
01:53Logitech MX Ergo
01:55The Logitech MX Ergo is a solid choice for those who want to keep wrist movement to a minimum,
02:01have limited desk space, or just have an open mind about finding an innovative product.
02:06The trackball mouse design is ergonomically shaped and comfortable in your hand
02:10and includes all of the standard features of a classic mouse.
02:13DPI ranges from 512 up to 2048 paired with advanced optical tracking.
02:19One full charge will last up to 120 days.
02:22Alongside the traditional left and right click buttons, there's a clickable wheel with right or left tilt,
02:28two smaller forward-back navigation buttons, an easy-access switch button,
02:33and a precision thumb button to adjust the DPI sensitivity on the fly.
02:37However, the biggest draw of the Logitech MX Ergo's customization options is the tilt feature,
02:43which allows you to angle the mouse by an extra 20 degrees for a hand position that feels more natural
02:48and improves forearm posture inching close to what you'd expect from a vertical mouse.
02:53It's a happy middle ground that's comfortable to use.
02:58Razer Basilisk VI3
03:00Gaming mice come in all shapes and sizes, but the Razer Basilisk VI3 might have the best ergonomics of the lot.
03:07It's very light, with a low profile and a comfortable concave thumb grip,
03:11and it seems to drift effortlessly across most surfaces with the minimum of effort.
03:16It's the rare gaming mouse that works just as well for design and productivity as gaming.
03:21Though it's there that the huge array of sensitivity settings,
03:24up to 26,000 DPI and high polling rate make all the difference.
03:29Each of the Basilisk's 11 buttons is fully customizable,
03:33and its scroll wheel has a free spin mode that switches you out of the normal notched setting
03:38into a mode where the wheel spins up and down without restrictions,
03:41which can be great for scrolling quickly through long documents or web pages.
03:46Using the companion software, you can reprogram any button, make sensor adjustments,
03:51and customize the RGB lighting.
03:54Unlike the Razer mouse, which has a thumb rest on the left,
03:57this mouse has added ergonomic support on the right side and features a rest for your ring finger.
04:02All in all, it's a sensational mouse.
04:07Logitech MX Master 3S
04:10The Logitech MX Master 3S, an upgraded version of the popular MX Master 3,
04:16is the best ergonomic mouse you can buy today.
04:19The brilliant design, incredible sensor, and high level of customization available
04:24all combine in a mouse that could change the way you work.
04:27On the top are the two main quiet click buttons, which are quieter than previous Logitech mice.
04:33Between these is the electromagnetic mag speed scroll wheel,
04:37which can be switched from smooth to ratchet scroll using the button just behind it.
04:41On the side are two further programmable buttons and a thumb wheel.
04:45The mouse sensor is an upgrade over the Master MX3 mouse.
04:49You can customize the DPI level from 200 to an incredible 8000, double that of its predecessor.
04:56This DPI range results in a very accurate and sensitive device
05:00that will work perfectly on almost any flat surface.
05:03The MX Master 3S is also more durable compared to other ergonomic mice on this list
05:09as it's made of stainless steel, not the traditional rubber material.
05:13It even works with multiple PCs, Macs, and tablets thanks to a handy switch on the bottom.
05:18Charging is done via USB-C for up to 70 hours on a full charge.
05:22One of the only real downsides of this ergonomic mouse is that it isn't available in a left-handed version.
05:33The Logitech MX Vertical is one of the most well-rounded and best-designed ergonomic mice on the market.
05:39Whether you need to decrease wrist pain or want a mouse that enables a simple
05:43and comfortable hand position when scrolling and clicking, this is the one.
05:47The optical sensor has a max DPI of 4000 for speed and precision.
05:51And the conveniently placed DPI switch button lets you choose the sensitivity that best suits your work.
05:57Each of the four buttons can be programmed for different hotkey inputs or tasks, simplifying your workflow.
06:03The soft-touch plastics and some sculpted ridges stop your hand from slipping,
06:07while two customizable forwards and back buttons sit just beneath your thumb on the left-hand side.
06:13All the buttons are tuned for a light but positive click with just the right amount of feedback,
06:18and the tracking is absolutely stellar.
06:21The MX Vertical connects via USB, a 2.4 GHz dongle or Bluetooth, pairing with up to three devices at a time.
06:29And it supports Logitech's excellent Flow software for seamless switching between them,
06:33although a little button beneath the mouse will handle the same job.
06:37Looking for the best ergonomic mouse out there and willing to pay for the privilege?
06:41This is it.
