Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The orbit scroll ring feels smoother than on the expert. They work well and are reasonably priced. This works well but is awkwardly shaped.

The cord is five feet long and has been long enough for desktops on the left and laptops on the right. It works well and without glitches. The extra resolution ball sensor makes everything so much better. Love it and used it on my desktop pc.

On my second one in 6 yrs. Its comes with a 3 year warranty so if it fails anytime soon kengsington will take care of it. Aww, no problem.

Cons

The scroll wheel is physically it has no detent so it's free-spinning without providing any feedback at regular intervals like a mouse scroll wheel does.

Makes it totally worthless in a multiple-mouse/trackball setup. This thing feels like it was the first try by kensington to make a trackball but failed miserably!

Everything else on it worked however, without the left mouse button, it becomes useless.

Price

For the price i find this trackball a valuable tool in my workstation and makes me more efficient.

Shipping

Also, i ordered on a sat evening & received sunday morning!

Competitiveness

To be fair, the orbit with scroll ring is more than just a good starter finger-operated trackball - it's practically the only o... Read More

I got this to replace a previous version of what looks like the same thing from the same brand.

I had never used a trackball type control before so i did some on line comparisons and based on features, price and reviews i s... Read More
