This mouse is top notch and a game changer! I used to suffer from severe arm pain daily for several years due to using a standard mouse, daily, for 20+ years and within four working days using the MX Vertical, my arm pain diminished significantly! After two weeks the pain was nonexistent. Blessings from Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦 🙏
Wow that sounds fantastic. I've been living with the same pain for years, now ordered an MX vertical. Still waiting for it but really looking forward to the change it might bring.
Thanks for the review. My work involves a constant shift between mouse and keyboard throughout the day and my experience with this mouse wasn't really good and would like to know if anyone here had the same experience. The problems faced: 1) So the whole point here is the ergonomics but with my kind of work, every time I do the switch from mouse to keyboard and vice versa the wrist constantly needs to turn 90 degree at each switch which is not the case when one uses the traditional mouse. 2) When chasing work deadlines the switching speed becomes a lot faster and my palm bumps and topples the mouse over (especially from mouse to keyboard) since the mouse is taller than the keyboard. 3) This about the Logitech "Lift" where both the left and right click buttons are super silent but then quite sensitive too, at least the one I got has the right click super sensitive and therefore during scrolling the right click the middle finger unintentionally gets pressed (may be it has got something to do with the learning curve from traditional to vertical mouse or muscle memory). Would love to hear the feedback. Thanks
I don't have the MX vertical, but I can recommend keyboards like Ergo K860. As a programmer this made a huge difference, and I actually notice quite a difference when usong it vs. a regular flat keyboard at the end of the day.
I've been using the MX Vertical for about 6 months and it has helped reduce my pain so much, I suffer from Cubital Tunnel Syndrome and this mouse noticeably reduced my pain. It's rubbish for gaming, especially shooters but for something like World of Warcraft which I play, it's fine.
Great video! Thank you for sharing your thoughts, and especially how you explained how you use gestures for horizontal scrolling and navigating between mac desktops 😁 I am now convinced to get this!
Thanks so much for this video! I haven’t seen any reviews talking about the gestures for this mouse. I want the side scroll in the mx master but I really want to try a vertical mouse because of my wrist pain. Great to know that you can program the side scroll here and that it’s good with Mac!
Really great video. I went from a Kone AIMO to a MX Master 3 and I instantly noticed a difference in just that small of a angle change. I ordered a Dacota Platinum Wireless Vertical mouse and it should be delivered in a few days, so I can´t wait to experience that huge of a difference in angle. I´m super stoked about getting it.
Thank you for the informative review! I started developing forearm and some wrist pain so I'm hoping this will work for me. I purchased the Logitech LIFT Vertical Mouse. Overall, the quality looks very good. It's not the MX Vertical, but I think the LIFT will work for me just as well as the MX. My hope now is that I'll get used to the device quickly and get relief from the forearm pain. Again, thanks for the detail review.
Man I love that fast scroll even though its not really necessary, The satisfaction! . I have a G502 fast scroll but I prefer using my G602 but it's just not as satisfying :p
Got the Nulea knock-off of this and honestly, it's great so far. Obviously build quality isn't quite as good but it's about 80% cheaper so I'm good with it
I do 3D graphics, so lots of mouse use, and the Logitech I've been using, and still right now, is from 2002. I've worn right through the rubber on one side, one time a bunch of oil leaked out onto the scroll wheel, but it's worked all this time, only now are the buttons starting to fail. Lasted over 20yrs... but don't tell them, because the build quality cost them money
After your last video on this mouse I got inspired into getting a nice mouse too, but I ended up getting the MX Ergo (the 90s kid in me loves trackballs) and now I really can't live without it. I'm debating whether I should get a keyboard?
Ah I love the MX Ergo, too. That track ball hits different haha. And yeah I highly recommend getting a nicer keyboard! Are you looking for an ergonomic keyboard, too?
You mentioned adding gestures so it's more like the track pad. How do you do that? :) I've tried adding zoom in System preferences > Accessibility (Mac), but it somehow makes the zooming weird. Things that are normally not zoomable suddenly are, menu and tool bars etc. Does anybody know how to avoid that?
I have a Logitech Trackball mouse for my main computer, and it works amazingly! I recently got a Vertical mouse for my school chromebook and it's really good.
I've been using the MX Ergo trackball for a few years now and love its ease of use, however am drawn to the Vertical's upright orientation. With a trackball mouse, the mouse stays stationary. Have you noticed any preference going back to a "movement" type mouse verses the non-moving trackball style?
BRUUUHH i was the commenter on the last mx vertical video, it’s like you made this video for me 😂😂😂 Jk jk but you earned my sub brother, i’m also a software engineer and love kanye too ;) - love from australia
Do you find clicking on the main two buttons a bit difficult on a vertical mouse compared to a conventional mouse? Clicking is effortless on a conventional mouse because it is pushed against the desk whereas you probably have your thumb only to grab tightly while you click on a vertical mouse. I myself planning to make a switch to a vertical mouse so asking this tiny but important question.
I am a graphic designer and I am still using a traditional mouse I haven't used potical mouse yet and I don't know how beneficial it will be or not but I know that nature/god has designed our body in such a way that it can do many things. When I work on the computer I work for about 10 to 16 hours my whole hand and about 90% of the wrist that I hold the mouse on remains above the table I don't hang my hand I think if we keep it like this If you work then there will probably be no problem
Yeah there's more affordable options. I specifically wanted the "Flow" feature so that's the only reason I can justify buying this over something from Amazon
I love the shape of that mouse but the scroll wheel is failing after a year, and the coating is starting to be disgusting and sticky under my hands, even if I try to clean it. Logitech really should stop making mouse with those rubber coating... at this point it looks like voluntary planned obsolescence (had the same issue on MX mice).
I have the logitech ergo ball and the precision is horrible. takes seconds to align it if I have to select an option or press a small button and dragging selection is a nightmare. also needs constant cleaning. it's helped with severe pain I have but creates other headaches. Still not sold on this one.
I am having problems using my Max Vertical across multiple monitor displays. The mouse seems to require my whole desk to nagivate. What tips does anyone have to minimize the amount of horizontal movement required across multiple monitor displays. I can't have things on my desk (even a pad of paper is in the way)
I've watched multiple reviews now, and they seem to have two reocurring issues, though none of them had been using it for months: * It's really easy to click before you've stopped moving the mouse, causing the user to drag instead of click when it comes to things like links. * The mouse gets easily warm, especially when used as a gaming mouse. Most likely due to the increased surface area. I would love to hear your thoughts on these two points, as I'm currently struggling with some form of ulnar nerve damage after having used the Corsair M65 Elite and am looking for a good, yet somewhat stylish replacement to my setup. PS: If anybody is curious about why my previous mouse didn't work for me, feel free to ask.
the scroll wheel is def something you have to experience to see what youre missing, i switch mice a lot and everytime im not using the master 3 i miss the crap out of the scroll wheel, but yea def not all that ergonomic especially for big hands. annnnnnnnd thats why im here xD
I think that mx scroll wheel is good for normal ppl like urself, for me as an 3d artist that mx scroll wheel is.. "too slippery", as we need that tactile steady middle click for Maya or 3ds max, anyone who work with 3d software will stay away from mx series.
Hey what mouse did you end up preferring in the end? I have the G502 and G602 but both are still to small for my hands. I still don't have a preferred productivity mouse or gaming mouse that I like.
This mouse is top notch and a game changer! I used to suffer from severe arm pain daily for several years due to using a standard mouse, daily, for 20+ years and within four working days using the MX Vertical, my arm pain diminished significantly! After two weeks the pain was nonexistent.

How have it been so far with the vertical mouse
Thank you for the informative review! I started developing forearm and some wrist pain so I'm hoping this will work for me. I purchased the Logitech LIFT Vertical Mouse. Overall, the quality looks very good. It's not the MX Vertical, but I think the LIFT will work for me just as well as the MX. My hope now is that I'll get used to the device quickly and get relief from the forearm pain. Again, thanks for the detail review.
I'm a software developer also and I was curious about which one to choose and now I know the MX Vertical is the one. Thanks.
You the man. I was worried about moving from Mac trackpad to the MX vert.
Man I love that fast scroll even though its not really necessary, The satisfaction! . I have a G502 fast scroll but I prefer using my G602 but it's just not as satisfying :p
Literally just bought this yesterday!
Nice choice! Definitely one of my favorite pieces of gear
Got the Nulea knock-off of this and honestly, it's great so far. Obviously build quality isn't quite as good but it's about 80% cheaper so I'm good with it
Can you make a follow up video of the gestures that you programmed ?
I do 3D graphics, so lots of mouse use, and the Logitech I've been using, and still right now, is from 2002. I've worn right through the rubber on one side, one time a bunch of oil leaked out onto the scroll wheel, but it's worked all this time, only now are the buttons starting to fail. Lasted over 20yrs... but don't tell them, because the build quality cost them money
Wouldve been nice to see the product more
do you rest your forarm on the desk or raise it up to use mouse?
After your last video on this mouse I got inspired into getting a nice mouse too, but I ended up getting the MX Ergo (the 90s kid in me loves trackballs) and now I really can't live without it. I'm debating whether I should get a keyboard?
Ah I love the MX Ergo, too. That track ball hits different haha. And yeah I highly recommend getting a nicer keyboard! Are you looking for an ergonomic keyboard, too?
@@YourAverageTechBro yes! Don't know which to get and how it'll all fit on my desk setul
@@jiffybishop3191 very late but K860 is great imo.
Awesome review !!
Does it work with a bluetooth keyboard ? at the same time ?
You mentioned adding gestures so it's more like the track pad. How do you do that? :)
I've tried adding zoom in System preferences > Accessibility (Mac), but it somehow makes the zooming weird. Things that are normally not zoomable suddenly are, menu and tool bars etc. Does anybody know how to avoid that?
Just bought it using your link bro, Thanks for the review!
doesn't it strain your thumb?
Thanks! The review really help me to decide wich of them to buy.

Have you noticed any preference going back to a "movement" type mouse verses the non-moving trackball style?
doesn't it put pressure in other places of your hand when you try to hold it down firmly in order to press the click button without making it move?
what is the size of your hand? thoughts on the newer lift vertical?
If you value confort and just not hurting at tghe wrist. Buy this now, such amazing mousey!
BRUUUHH i was the commenter on the last mx vertical video, it’s like you made this video for me 😂😂😂

to tell u the truth, im using a $10 vertical mouse and it is just perfect for me and i dont wonna change it
Yeah there's more affordable options. I specifically wanted the "Flow" feature so that's the only reason I can justify buying this over something from Amazon
Hi @mikef8662, I'm looking for some mouses online, so which mouse did you bought, and do you have any other mouse to recommend?
Thanks

Facts
What did you try and clean it with?
Great review!
When you're talking about computer mice, both mice and mouses are correct plurals.
I have the logitech ergo ball and the precision is horrible. takes seconds to align it if I have to select an option or press a small button and dragging selection is a nightmare. also needs constant cleaning. it's helped with severe pain I have but creates other headaches.

Faster tracking speed??
I understand that this mouse's maximum dpi is 4000, but what is it's minimum?
400
What DPI do you use for the MX Vertical?
I've watched multiple reviews now, and they seem to have two reocurring issues, though none of them had been using it for months:
* It's really easy to click before you've stopped moving the mouse, causing the user to drag instead of click when it comes to things like links.

How did your search go?
@@flarierza33 I ended up getting a Logitech mouse, the G502 X Plus, and have been really happy with that.
Great video. I agree on all points and absolutely love my Vertical Mouse. Also, love the “Jesus is King” poster in the background.
the scroll wheel is def something you have to experience to see what youre missing, i switch mice a lot and everytime im not using the master 3 i miss the crap out of the scroll wheel, but yea def not all that ergonomic especially for big hands. annnnnnnnd thats why im here xD

so much raving about the mouse. I want to know what you dont like about it lol
yea...im here cuz i ordered and its in shipping phase 😂😂 i know you watch the video before buying but its alrigth haahaaaaha
How is it? Are you still using it or did you go back to a typical mouse?
