Highlights

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

Quality

Full disclosure: the product does what it says on the tin and is well built.

It was easy to setup and works wonderful

The buttons are too soft, lots of miss-fires.

Got tired of the switches constantly wearing out and having to replace the mouse.

Price

A 1mm shim solves this but for such a pricey device, this is not a reasonable solution.

Overall, if you’re thinking of getting a trackball mouse, spend the money on this one and don’t look back.

The wireless model solves that, albeit at the cost of having to be recharged.

Shipping

It took about a week to get adjusted to.

Packaging/appearance

The video shows the product being unpacked.

Competitiveness

I have not tested with multiple computers; other devices seem to have a switch for this that slimblade does not have.

Nevertheless, i prefer pressing them compared to the expert's.

I thought slimblade would be the next best thing, but it's actually better.
