TL;DR
Logitech Mice
The Logitech MX Master series is frequently mentioned as one of the best ergonomic mice available. Users appreciate its comfortable design, long-lasting battery, and customizable buttons [2:3],
[4:1]. The MX Vertical is another popular choice, especially for those experiencing wrist pain, as it promotes a natural handshake position
[5:9]. However, some users found it uncomfortable, highlighting that personal preference plays a significant role in mouse comfort
[2:5].
Vertical Mice
Vertical mice are designed to reduce wrist strain by allowing the hand to rest in a more natural position. The Anker vertical mouse is a budget-friendly option that has helped users alleviate nerve pain [2:4]. Similarly, the Delux M618 mini is recommended for those with smaller hands
[3:2]. It's important to note that adjusting to a vertical mouse may take time, but many find it beneficial in the long run
[3:1].
Trackball Mice
For those looking to minimize arm movement, a trackball mouse like the Logitech MX Ergo can be an excellent choice. It allows users to control the cursor using their thumb, which can help reduce wrist and arm strain [1:1]. Trackball mice can take some getting used to, but they offer a unique ergonomic advantage by keeping the hand stationary.
Alternative Options
Some users have found relief by alternating between different types of mice, such as combining a traditional mouse with an ergonomic vertical mouse [2:2]. Gaming mice, known for their lightweight and responsive designs, can also be a good option for those who prefer a lighter mouse
[5:4],
[5:8].
Personal Fit and Preferences
Ultimately, finding the right ergonomic mouse depends on individual preferences and hand size. It's advisable to try out different models if possible, as what works for one person might not work for another [4:1]. Additionally, consulting with an occupational therapist could provide personalized recommendations based on specific ergonomic needs
[2:1].
I was wondering what y'all's favorite kind of mouse was to use. Recently, I've been wanting to invest in a different mouse because my current one just hurts. I've heard about ergonomic vertical mouse has that helped anyone?
Makes such a difference in my hand and wrist pain!
I have ridiculously tiny hands, and people in my office ALWAYS laugh at the mouse I use. basically I buy either a children's/travel size mouse. it's small enough to basically fit in the palm of my hand so that I don't have to bend my wrist up. I essentially place it in the middle of my palm and then move my whole hand along with the mouse rather than moving at the wrist joint? if that makes any sense... on the odd occasion where I have to use someone else's mouse, it feels giant and my wrist is cranked all the way up cuz it's so tall. I don't know how everyone else does it
here's the one I'm currently using, bonus it's 12 bucks: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BWPQBL7/ref=pd_aw_subss_hxwPER_sspa_mw_detail_sbl_s_ds1_pn_n_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B07BWPQBL7&pd_rd_r=2542da40-7e62-455d-86e6-d087a9ee9bbc&pd_rd_wg=sLuXl&pd_rd_w=6FaIE
I used a controller with reWASD software to make it act like a mouse.
I've been through them all: trackball, vertical, small, and big ones. Logitech's MX Ergo was by far the best for me; it allowed me to stay for 200% longer periods in front of the computer without significant wrist strain. Now, about a year later, I'm having thumb issues from texting and drumming, and I feel I'll have to dig out my MX Vertical from the closet.
Can anyone recommend a computer mouse that has worked really well for you? I’ve tried the Logitech Lift Vertical Ergonomic Mouse but it was really uncomfortable. I like my coworker’s mouse (Jelly Comb brand) but it’s not for sale anymore. Would love to hear what others are using that supports the hand well.
My hand doctor suggested I get two mice: one ergonomic vertical mouse and one more "traditional" style mouse. Swapping between two hand/wrist orientations rhas really made a difference for me. And I'm no longer looking for "the perfect" mouse.
Logitech MX Master 3S is really the best I've found available. I also have the jellycomb and really enjoy it. Didn't know they don't make it anymore! Shoot.
The Logitech MX was the first one I tried and it made my hand hurt so bad. I’d read such good reviews as well.
Danggggg. I wonder what the issue is then maybe an occupational therapist could help more. Or at least pinpoint the specific areas on your hand that are causing issues. You may look at a thumb style roller ball option to completely isolate the arm movement and totally focus on the thumb movement on the roller. I truly think the Logitech offerings are the best for ergo and all others sort of mimicking those at a cheaper price. Roller ball could be the best way to go for you.
I was going to recommend the same, I've been using my Logitech MX Master 2s for almost 10 years now and it's been great.
It's a great mouse all around for everything. Fits right in the palm of your hand =) Good to know it'll last that long!
I’ve used the Anker vertical mouse for a few years. It’s available on Amazon and is relatively inexpensive. It definitely took a bit to get used to, but it’s reduced the nerve pain in my hand and wrist a ton.
I got a ProtoArc EM01 NL wireless mouse yesterday and it’s amazing so far!
Kung best, Logitech MX Master 3s. Pricey lang talaga.
Affordable option is Delux OP. Specifically the M618 mini kung maliit lang kamay mo.
I suggest you get the Rapoo the sizing is just perfect. adjustable ang DPI niya. responsive ang tracking niya and plus plus na lang. or the anker 2.4G
I have Logitech Lift and after 6mos of using it daily for work, ayaw na niya magpair through Bluetooth and hindi niya madetect yung Logi bolt usb. Nakakainis. I suggest buy a different brand.
Bili ka muna ng murang vertical mouse, medyo may katagalan bago ka masanay. Pag sanay kana, susunod na rin mawawala yung sakit sa wrist at arms.
Tignan mo din yung size na akma sa kamay mo. Pag msydo maliit, sasakit pa rin ang kamay mo. Pag masydong malaki, ganun din mahihirapan ka.
Siempre he sido de usar mouse. Me encanta. Lo ocupo para trabajar y además jugar pc.
Ahora ultimo he tenido dolores en las manos, especificamente en el dedo meñique. Tengo varios elementos ergonomicos como apoya muñecas para teclado y mouse, pero parece q no es suficiente.
Asi que me preocupé harto porque como trabajo y además juego pc para relajarme, literal si me empiezan a doler o me cagan las manos no puedo trabajar ni relajarme.
Quería saber desde su lado, me recomiendan algún mouse o elemento ergonomico para evitar hacerme bolsa las manos en el mediano-largo plazo?
Mi amigo chatGPT me recomendó Trackball o comprar un Trackpad aparte, pero no se que sea más "sano".
Igual por mi lado intento hacer estiramientos, deporte y descansar, pero igual me da miedo llegar a viejo con artrosis o alguna enfermedad cronica en las manos. Así que quiero empezar a hacer todo lo posible ahora ya.
Literal mis manos son mi fuente de ingresos, necesito cuidarlas. Acepto consejos!
Uso el Logitech MX Master 3 desde el 2020. Nunca más me molestó la muñeca así que lo recomiendo a ciegas. Alguna vez probé un mouse vertical y era igual de incómodo, el MX Master es un punto medio y me acomoda mucho.Te recomiendo que intentes probar alguno en mano antes de comprar porque va a depender de tu fisonomía cuál es el mejor para ti.
Hola q t gusta de este mouse? Se ve similar a cualquier mouse.
Hola, escribí el medio comentario y al parecer no lo publiqué 😅
Me gusta que tiene scroll vertical y horizontal. La batería apenas se ha degradado en 5 años. El software de Logitech permite crear macros según la aplicación y me ayuda mucho en el día a día. Considerando que hago unos 8 mil clicks al día, los botones se sienten muy bien aún después de 5 años. Se puede conectar por cable, Bluetooth o el dongle (qué guarda hasta 3 dispositivos)
Creo que otros productos pueden tener todo eso pero al menos en ese momento fue el que encontré entre mis candidatos.
El Mouse definitivo.
Ergo m575 logitech
Tenía dolor de tendones, y la empresa me lo mandó.
Nunca más volví a mouse óptico.
Hola! de casualidad no te termina doliendo más el pulgar? como cuando haces mucho scroll en el celular
En un principio cuesta acostumbrarse y se resienten los músculos.
Pero no es como hacer doom-scroll, probablemente por ser en varias direcciones y no solo en una
tengo tendinitis hace por lo menos dos años, y el año pasado investigamos y mi jefe compró uno vertical "Kensington", no he sufrido mas de dolores, y obviamente lo ocupo con mi mouse pad con almohadilla :) te dejo link, a mi me funciono!
>Ahora ultimo he tenido dolores en las manos, especificamente en el dedo meñique.
Si es que apoyas tus codos en una silla y esta es dura, unas almohadillas pueden servir, aparte de un mejor mouse. El roce de repente inflama el nervio cubital y da síntomas con el dedo meñique y el anular. Yo tenía dolor, entumecimiento y perdida de fuerza.
Fui al médico y me dijeron que tenía el nervio cubital muy superficial, por eso se me inflama más fácil con un roce prolongado. Tuve que hacer kinesiólogo, cambiar el mouse, la silla y el escritorio por cosas más ergonomicas, tambien compré las almohadillas para los codos, y mientras siga estando en el PC 10 horas al día voy a tener que estar haciendo estiramientos y ejercicios constantemente.
mi condición igual es media rara, es poco probable que tengas algo a tal extremo (tampoco soy médico jaja), pero si te intriga puedes buscar videos de estiramiento del nervio cubital en Youtube.
Yo me compre uno vertical en aliexpress q me costo 10 lks, para probar como me siento usando ese tipo de mouse, estoy esperando q me llegue y vere que tal, si me gusta quizas voy x uno mas pro
Uuh avisa que onda! En realidad nunca los he probado, pero si hace mejor me parece buena opcion.
My recommendation is to use a gaming mouse. I have wrist pain. And have tried MX master( sold), MX anywhere, m720 and m280(not working properly anymore). Currently using pulsar v2 mini and cooler master mm720. I usually like switching mouse everyday but my wrist just thank me when I use a light mouse
I use a G Pro Wireless and a big trackpad. You can program button assignments and macros on the GPW with a portable exe, Logitech Onboard Memory Manager, so it’s perfect for a work computer that’s locked down. The GPW also has two extra buttons on the right side, 7 buttons total. Combined with Gshift, I have loads of many macros/button combinations stored on the mouse itself, meaning those assignments persist regardless of which computer the mouse is connected to. I use the front left side button as my G Shift key since I can hold that button down while pressing any other button on the mouse.
You can go even crazier if your work lets you install Logitech Gaming Software since that program has automatic profile switching depending on the app in focus on your desktop. I’ve got hundreds of shortcuts set up for all the Adobe and Microsoft Office apps, and I can use the apps with only the mouse 99% of the time. Only time I need two hands on my keyboard is for text entry.
Another benefit of using a popular gaming mouse as your work mouse is that you have access to all the best aftermarket PTFE skates and custom fit rubber grips. That allows you to tailor the comfort and glide speed of the mouse to your personal taste. I use a medium speed set of skates to have a nice glide without losing precision, and two different brands of rubber grips to really dial in the contact points on the mouse and where I want it to be more or less grippy.
The trackpad is nice for a few reasons. Of course scrolling horizontally and vertically is so much easier with swipes, and depending on the trackpad you choose, you can assign button combos to gestures and 2/3/4 finger taps/swipes. The biggest benefit to your hand health is that it encourages you to change hand/arm/wrist positions often. If you place the trackpad above your mousepad then you need to extend your arm to use it. That utilizes and conditions the stabilization muscles in your arm, which is very important for preventing RSIs.
What trackpad do you use?
I use a custom Windows PC and a MacBook Pro at my desk so I use an Apple Magic Trackpad with both of them, but you can use any generic $30 trackpad from Amazon if you’re on Windows. Just make sure to choose one that’s detected as a “precision touchpad” in Windows.
Windows 10 and 11 have a bunch of gestures built-in that work with any “precision touchpad” and you can also assign gesture shortcuts without installing any additional software.
If your work will let you install software then I recommend a windows program called MultiSwipe. It gives you full gesture and shortcut customization for any trackpad. It supports like 80 different gestures.
If you’re on Mac OS then BetterTouchTool is still the best.
MX master? I have a MX vertical myself and love it, really reduced my pain
Mx master was tempting but weighs 30 grams more than razer pro click which is already too heavy.
My goal from this is to find a ergo mouse that is less than 80 grams.
Pulsar Gaming Gears Xlite V2 Wireless I know it's a "gaming mouse" but it's light and ergo and wireless Definitely overkill but could be worth looking at I suppose
So I have been dealing with the and palm pain in my right thumb. I am working multiple 12 hour shifts abs doing lots of mousing around. :)
I use a mx vertical primarily and this keeps wrist pain down but all the hours are getting to my hand in general.
I brought my 50 gram gamer g wolves skoll mini in, it's okay but I don't want to claw or fingertip grip all day.
I bought a used razer pro click. Not a fan of the quiet buttons, shape is nice for palm but weight a little high.
If it helps the pro clicks scroll wheel is the best I have used. I adore this.
So is there a mouse with ergonomic concerns that is light and I can zoom around with at work in a variety of ways?
I think my hand is A 19 by 10 size if thus helps.
I am going to try to learn to use a mouse left handed to give my right hand a break I think.
Any suggestions are welcome. Also if you have questions for me about my mice ask away.
My mousepad here is a brand new esports qin mouse pad btw. Manager approved for work. 😀
I was raised using the mouse left-handed because it helps to center the text part of a full size keyboard for ergonomics (right handed you need to use the mouse all the way behind the numpad), but I can also do right-handed just as easily. I think trying to switch is a very good option to alleviate cramps, in my experience it's easier than typing on another keyboard layout (looking at you AZERTY). Only issue is there aren't very many leftie ergo mice, so you're stuck with ambis.
I ordered a logitech vertical lift left. Will see if any good.
I work with my old buddy the Razer DA v2.
working with a gaming mouse is actualy a realy good idea, a lot of ergonomic mice are too big for my hands so I'm sticking with my Viper mini
I've tried 3 different models, and at this point I'm desperate to find a comfortable, functional mouse. I've tried:
Anker vertical mouse – causes me to pinch the mouse in my hand in order to hold onto it, which create a lot of strain.
Basilisk razor – my hand keep slipping off causing me to grip it too hard, which creates a lot of strain.
Logi m510 – The only comfortable mouse, but it’s crappy quality. I bought 1 and the mouse keeps skipping all over the place. I thought it was just a bad mouse so I got another, and it has the exact same problem. And the middle button doesn’t work well.
Extra Point – Apple’s mouse. No. Just… no.
I could really use some help with recommendations!
Mx 3 and I'm almost happy. Mx 3 ergonomic and I'm getting the best what's out there. But I do most of my working a combination of mx3 ergo and Wacom pen
Logitech MX Vertical with wrist pad 🤌
Definitely recommend this as well. My desk setup didn’t have room for a Wacom tablet so I bought this a year ago and it’s been the best mouse I’ve used. It takes a couple of days to get used to it but I found it to be a great solution.
This, plus a wrist pad cured my carpal tunnel!
I switched to a trackball years ago and love it. I was getting shoulder pains. Personally use the MX Ergo
Big time trackball enthusiast here. I find it way better for editing and motion graphics than a mouse. I was getting wrist pain and carpal tunnel and trackballs saved me. I have tried numerous models over the years, but my fav is a rare MacAlly trackball that is no longer made. I have to get them on eBay. I probably have at least 6 of them now.
I switched to a trackball about three years ago and it made a huge difference. I’ve been really happy with the Kensington Expert Trackball Mouse.
Also using mx ergo, love it.
I use the Mx ego and it’s definitely more comfortable than a regular mouse.
I printed a 3d base for it so that my hand is even more vertical and that’s improved it even more
I use a Logitech MX Master. Very happy with it. It's great if you use multiple systems each day.
Some people like wacom tablets with pens if they have ergonomic issues with mice.
Also Wacom. I know you asked about a mouse. I've tried mice, I've tried a trackball, and nothing beats or even comes close to using a pen and tablet.
I don't spend enough time editing anymore (retired) to have bothered setting up all of the shortcut buttons on the tablet. I'm sure they would make things even better.
Using a Wacom eliminated my elbow pain and hand numbness from carpel tunnel that developed over the first decade or so of my career. Plus I find it a lot more efficient with the additional hand gestures. I hate having to use a mouse on the rare occasions that I don’t have access to a tablet, it feels so foreign.
I have been experiencing wrist pain with my regular mouse. I want to know if anyone has tried an Ergonomic Mouse. I'm eyeing the Logitech Lift in particular but if you have any mouse recommendation that is better than it, do please let me know. I want to know din what's your use-case in using your ergonomic mouse and need your feedback. It may be just day-to-day wfh, content editing, etc.
Using Lift right now and okay naman sya. May two buttons pa sa left part na pwede magamit at ma customize based on keys you usually use. As for me, ginagamit ko yun as copy + paste so mas madali kaysa mag type sa keyboard. Buy mo na yan haha
EDIT: Medyo nakakapanibago din kapag galing ka sya clicky keys na mice, kasi wala talaga syang tunog at madali lang ma click unlike sa mga traditional na medyo may effort pa mapindot lang. Feeling ko nung una may mali kasi nasanay ako sa ganon haha
Not yet pero sa dami ng nakikita kong ganito lately, I might buy it soon.
Yes, life-changing sya
Oo malaki difference
Try vertical mouse. Mas mura at ergonomic.
Ganito kasi yung nabili ko, and medyo nahihirapan pa ako na abutin ng daliri ko yung scroll button. Hahaha
Thank you in advance!!
Thank you in advance!!
Thank you in advance!!
The best one would be the one that have a pinky finger rest.
Ganito gamit ko. Do na ko babalok SA traditional mouse
Logitech ergo mouse. 3k maliit
in using the cheapest less than 200 pesos. and 400 pesos wireless

Not a clickbait title, this is genuinely my requirement.
I have large hands, right-handed, alternate between palm and claw grip.
Games I play are non competitive fps and RPGs. All types of single player games basically. Some fps require quick reactions, so that's a plus but not the focus.
Note: found using my current cheap wired mouse very difficult on high dpi mode. Perhaps I'm not used to such sensitivity.
primary focus is a mice that can be used wirelessly, is ergonomic and precise, preferable has both Bluetooth and usb options as well (and wired too if possible).
Prefer RGB, and charging via USB rather than batteries.
Currently eyeing the MX Master 3 as it checks all the boxes, but nearly everyone tells me I can't game at all on that. Inclined to opt for the Razer basilisk ultimate instead, but worried if it's going to be too sensitive or less ergonomic.
Deathadder V2 Pro is my vote. It’s the most comfortable ergonomic mouse I have used. Hand size is 19.5cm x 11cm for reference. Has both Bluetooth and 2.4 ghz wireless.
Roccat Kone Pro Air, Asus ROG Gladius III Wireless, maybe there's a couple other options I'm forgetting. I like both the mice I listed but I wouldn't say they're quite as comfortable as some other ergonomic (wired) mice I use.
What are those other ergo wired mice that you've used?
Outset, EC1, MX518, Rival 310, and Pro Intellimouse are all more comfortable for me than those two. I regularly use the Outset, MX518 and EC1-C.
Everything I've tried: https://www.reddit.com/user/Talynen/comments/r9ddot/list_of_mice_ive_tried_2021/
Model D wireless seems like a good option for you. Large mouse for large hands, right handed, ergo so perfect for palm and claw and it doesn't fatigue your hand while using it for hours (productivity). It has really nice RGB, probably the best for any wireless mouse, and it charges via USB C and not batteries. Also very precise. ticks every single one of your boxes, apart from bluetooth. But 1 of those boxes unticked out of all the ones ticked, doesn't seem like a bad choice to me :)
Razer Basilisk V2 and Logitech G502 are gaming first, productivity second mouse. Both of these mice have a lots of programmable buttons and gaming sensors (that can take well rapid accelerations and very accurate disregarding the DPI, with 1000 Hz polling each). The former is lighter than Logitech G502. Weight is an important consideration for those who work in front of their computer for any amount of time. Razer Basilisk V3 is there, but it is heavier with the addition of Hyperscroll (infinite scrolling).
Logitech MX Master 2S or 3 are productivity first, gaming second mouse. I've experienced the mouse and I find the gesture button on the mouse to be a very welcome addition. Hyperscroll is also featured for the mouse. Moreover, it's a wireless mouse. The biggest downside of using the mouse would be its massive weight and its relatively subpar sensors compared to gaming mouse.
As with anything ergonomic, you need to test the mouse shape yourself by holding and grabbing it. Someone else's best mouse is most likely not your best mouse. All of these are ergo-shaped (for right-hand) and have a lot of buttons that you can program.
Mx Master 2s/3 buttons are programmable?
Is it?
Came to write this
Roccats entire line of mice
What ewiggle means is “get a KPOE”
If you want a great scrollwheel, than go for the "Roccat-Route"
Zowie EC series has a shape that is really popular and I haven't really heard anyone complain about it before. Pretty safe bet for finding it comfortable.
Hello, I guess I will be the first! Just got my ec2-a 2 days ago, I played 20min, but still not really suits me, but I will try play more before return it, shape feels good in hand when you rest it, but I have some kinda weird style of gripping it , more like claw probably and it doesn’t feel right compare to g502 (my ex mice) , I also have Rival 300 to big for me.
EC2 shape just the most comfy <3
You could try a Dream Machine DM Comfy mouse.
Depends on your handsize and grip :)
​
EC2 is pretty nice
&
G403 / G703 are pretty nice

best ergonomic mouse for comfortable use
Key Considerations for Choosing an Ergonomic Mouse:
Shape and Design: Look for a mouse that fits the natural curve of your hand. Vertical mice can reduce wrist strain by allowing a more natural hand position.
Grip Style: Consider your grip style (palm, claw, or fingertip) and choose a mouse that accommodates it. A palm grip mouse is generally more comfortable for extended use.
Size: Ensure the mouse is the right size for your hand. A mouse that is too small or too large can lead to discomfort over time.
Weight: A lightweight mouse can be easier to maneuver, but some users prefer a heavier mouse for stability. Look for adjustable weights if possible.
Button Placement: Ensure that buttons are easily accessible without straining your fingers. Customizable buttons can also enhance productivity.
Wired vs. Wireless: Both options have their pros and cons. Wireless mice offer more freedom of movement, while wired mice can provide a more stable connection.
Recommendations:
Logitech MX Master 3: This mouse is highly regarded for its ergonomic design, customizable buttons, and excellent battery life. It supports multiple devices and has a comfortable thumb rest.
Anker Ergonomic Vertical Mouse: A budget-friendly option that promotes a natural handshake position, reducing wrist strain. It’s great for users who spend long hours on the computer.
Razer Basilisk Ultimate: If you're a gamer or need high precision, this mouse combines ergonomic design with customizable features and excellent performance.
Choosing the right ergonomic mouse can significantly reduce discomfort and improve your overall productivity, especially if you spend long hours at your desk.
