Logitech MX Vertical, flipping the mouse on its side is hardly an upgrade
Logitech is flipping the design of the computer mouse on its side with its MX Vertical Advanced Ergonomic mouse. The idea is to re-invent the mouse, at the same time making in forward-looking and more useful, I guess. It also happens to look like enlarged garlic clove. The point of a vertical mouse is to provide an “ergonomic” design. The packaging is says it positions your hand at a 57-degree angle, which is apparently a more “natural” one. However, there’s a steep learning curve, one users ultimately never conquered.
Logitech isn’t asking for an insane amount for the MX Vertical. At $99.99, it’s in line with other high-end computer peripherals, and the design is eye-catching. However, a vertical mouse isn’t the clear step forward Logitech seems to think it is. After using it for a while, users found the experience lacking. While they could get used to the unintuitive button placement, my discomfort made me question the ergonomic benefits.
One of the main ideas behind Logitech’s vertical-mouse design is that it’s more ergonomic and be more comfortable on your wrist and arm. However, the MX Vertical, far from reducing pain, merely relocates it. At the end of the day Logitech’s MX Vertical is a good mouse, but for $99 you should really be getting a great mouse.
