ELECOM M-HT1URBK Wired Trackball Mouse Larger, Ergonomic Design, 8-Button Function with Smooth Tracking, Precision Optical Gaming Sensor for Home, Work, Office

I bought this mouse in 2021 and then kept it in my drawer for a few years, but now it just stopped working, even scroll wheel is not working.

Ayant utilisé le model précédant (M-HT1URXBK) qui avait un manque de souplesse dans le maniement de la boule, qui a été remplacé par ce model qui est bien plus souple a l'utilisation et avec la même esthétique. Merci au fabriquant d'avoir consulté les commentaires a ce sujet. Slt.

Premetto che è il primo trackball che uso. Ho preso questo perchè ero sicuro che i giapponesi curassero l'ergonomia alla perfezione e ne è ho avuto la conferma definitiva.Ottima la precisione della "sfera" che guida il puntatore, nel mio caso non ho fatto la modifica che viene proposta su web per aumentare la scorrevolezza della sfera stessa, è andata bene così com'è in quanto è proprio la leggera resistenza al movimento che lo rende più preciso.L'ho utiizzato sia con Windows 10 che con Fedora 39 e 40 con KDE e posso dire che è più reattivo con Fedora (entrambe le versioni) mentre con Windows 10, nonostante abbia installato i driver e l'app Elecom "Mouse Assistant", spesso il movimento del puntatore sembra "rigido", mi da la sensazione di avere una resistenza al movimento, mentre su Fedora è molto più fluido.L'unica leggera scomodità, almeno per i mie gusti, sono i tasti posti alla destra della sfera che secondo me dovevano essere leggermente più in alto perchè risulta un pò scomoda la pressione degli stessi a causa dell'altezza della sfera rossa.E' altamente regolabile sia direttamente sul dispositivo, dove si può scegliere la velocità di scorrimento tramite selettore (con modifca immediata) sia con la personalizzazione via software dei tasti presenti (8 + la rotella laterale).Nel complesso sono soddisfattissimo e lo consiglio vivamente.Avevo letto in qualche recensioni che una volta provato un trackball difficilmente ci si rinuncia e posso confermare che è così, è molto meglio del mouse classico.

Simplemente genial, se pueden configurar los botones son problemas, es grande pero la almohadilla que tiene hace que sea cómodo en las largas jornadas de trabajo, el interruptor de precisión ayuda a moverme rápido entre los monitores y detallar lo más pequeño. Buenos materiales, se siente de buena calidad. Al principio el cambio de usar trackball en el pulgar al índice me descontroló un poco, pero el menos de un par de horas ya estás como pez en el agua de nuevo. Muy recomendado

I have long fingers. 7.5" from fingertip to wrist crease. I'm a software developer and also a PC gamer. As I spend more and more time in front of a computer - often 12 hour days nowadays - comfort is critical. In the past I've tried many different trackballs and mice, and everything has had some downside. Recently after starting to have chronic wrist pain, I made it my mission to find the best pointing device. I have tried many different options of mice and trackballs.Up until a few weeks ago, I settled with an older Logitech G5 mouse. Basically, it's the classic MX518 shape. You may have done some research on mice, ergonomics, etc, and read about palm vs claw posture. At my size hands, you're kidding yourself if you think you can pull off true palm posture with ANY mouse. They're simply not big enough. Trust me, I've been searching for the one, but it doesn't exist. With the G5, I found I used something close to palm posture for daily work, then claw posture for agility when gaming.I tried a couple vertical mice. The one I did manage to find that was large enough to wrap my hand around didn't have the wheel in the right place. Additionally, I found the whole movement very clumsy as you have to move your entire forearm. Even if I got better, there was no way I could ever game with it. After a solid week (maybe I'd get used to it?) I determined it was futile.Then I began looking into trackballs. Years ago I tried a Logitech Trackman Marble, and I still had that lying around and decided to give it a whirl. It's alright... wish it was larger to offer more palm support. I am pretty good with it, and can game with it with similar agility to a mouse. The failure is the lack of a wheel. I simply couldn't live without it at work. I've seen coworkers with Kensingtons, and decided to try those next.Kensington Orbit: I immediately wrote off the Orbit for being too small.Kensington Expert: Tried this for a few days. IMHO, the angle on it is all wrong. It's way too tilted... almost as if it was designed for a desk that was too high above your legs, and you're bending your elbow putting your forearm above parallel to compensate. I tried to overcome this with different height wrist wrests, which helped somewhat, but ultimately my wrist was never straight and would cramp after an hour or two.Kensington Slimblade: This is similar to the Expert, but lower and much less angled. On paper, it seemed like it solved the shortcoming of the Expert. I found a wrist rest height that worked well with it. Twisting the ball to function as a scroll wheel? Some people hate it, but I actually kinda liked it. My wrist didn't though... I scroll a lot, and it was simply too much motion involved. I did game with it once, and while I was fairly accurate, it didn't seem very sensitive.Next was this Elecom. Seems Amazon clumps reviews together, so I'll mention I have the URBK aka "Huge" wired only version. This thing is GREAT! Size is nearly perfect. I didn't realize beforehand that the area you rest your hand on is actually some kind of firm foam which is quite nice. The left click (thumb) feels natural, as does the scroll wheel placement. I'm really sold on the thumb scroll wheel. It's the least fatiguing of any setup I've used.My hand falls on it naturally, using the index and middle finger for the ball and my ring finger on the right click. I haven't bothered to install the software to program the other buttons, as I have never really used them on any device. For gaming, this is great! It's definitely faster and more sensitive than the Kensingtons, even when the switch is on my favored medium sensitivity. Sometimes when making a large movement I find myself using my ring finger on the ball as well, but it seems to flow well... much better than hitting the edge of a mouse pad and having to lift a mouse and re position.Bottom line: My fingers are moving, not my wrist, so I am happy and comfortable. I'm considering getting more of these for other computers. If your hands are largish and you struggle to find something that fits well, definitely give this a try!

Harto de Logit... y su obsolescencia programa a precio de oro, me decidí por esta marca por las valoraciones que tenía, y no me he equivocado. Cierto es que lo compré nada más salir y los drivers estaban algo verdes: sólo se podía modificar la configuración en idioma asiático. Pero me atendieron perfectamente y acabaron resolviendo el problema en un mes con una nueva versión (entretanto pude configurar las cosas memorizando la posición de las opciones en castellano y cambiándolas en japonés). Ahora va todo bien.No acabo de ver utilidad a los gestos, así que poco puedo comentar (utilizo atajos de teclado).Me ha encantado, sobre todo considerando que siempre tengo la mesa hecha un desastre y una pantalla 4K de 43". Con un ratón se tiene que mover mucho la mano e ir dando saltitos para reposicionarlo, o utilizar una alfombrilla gaming. El manejo es preciso, y se puede desplazar el cursor de un lado a otro de la pantalla moviendo rápido la bola (lanzándola y parándola, más bien), muy útil en pantallas grandes o múltiples.Tiene un montón de botones, todos configurables (10 clics disponibles), incluso personalizable según programas. La rueda es normal, sin sobresalir en calidad. La bola funciona muy suave, más si se van limpiando de vez en cuando los tres puntos de apoyo (quitar la bola, que va a presión, y limpiar los puntos rojos del compartimento donde se aloja). Su gran tamaño hace que se maneje con precisión (imprescindible en CAD), con uno, dos o tres dedos. No he podido probar trackballs de pulgar o más pequeños, pero dudo que sea tan preciso como este.Para manos relativamente grandes es muy ergonómico, ya que se puede apoyar desde la parte inferior de la palma (casi la muñeca) sobre el dorso acolchado. Recomiendo asignar a algún botón el doble clic, es más ágil y evita movimientos sobre la bola al hacer la doble pulsación. Además, agiliza la selección de palabras y párrafos. Otra opción es soltar la bola al hacer doble clic, pero es más lento y queda torpe.Pero tampoco pensemos que es todo maravillos: necesita un tiempo de aprendizaje, resulta lioso para el que no lo ha manejado nunca, y no se alcanza mayor precisión ni velocidad que con un ratón, al menos no lo he notado. Hasta que no asignas doble clic a un botón, es muy fácil mover carpetas o archivos sin darse cuenta, ya que tendemos a mover la mano al hacer clic. En mi caso he ganado comodidad porque no necesita espacio físico para grandes desplazamientos del puntero. Además, me permite tener la tecla intro del teclado siempre justo al lado del pulgar derecho lo cual puede ser muy útil. Tampoco puedo decir si mejora problemas con dolores del tipo túnel carpiano, no los tenía.
