Best Ergonomic Mouse for Long Coding Sessions

JD

Hey everyone,

I'm looking for recommendations for an ergonomic mouse that's comfortable for extended periods of coding. My current mouse is starting to cause some wrist strain. I've been looking at trackballs and vertical mice, but I'm open to any suggestions.

What do you guys use and recommend?

"Comfort is key for productivity!"

Thanks in advance!

I highly recommend the Logitech MX Vertical. I've been using it for over a year now and it's made a huge difference for my wrist pain. It takes a little getting used to, but once you do, it feels very natural.

Here's a link:

The adjustable DPI is also a nice bonus for precision work.

I'm more of a trackball person myself. I use the Elecom HUGE. It has a lot of programmable buttons and a comfortable wrist rest. Some people find trackballs take a while to adjust to, but for me, it eliminated all wrist movement.

// Example of a simple script to configure buttons
function configureTrackball() {
    console.log("Configuring trackball buttons...");
    // ... actual configuration logic here ...
}
configureTrackball();

What about those split keyboards with integrated trackpads or trackballs? They might offer a more integrated ergonomic solution.

I'm also interested in any experiences with the Razer Basilisk V3 Pro for its versatility.
