Perixx Perimice-513L Wired Vertical Ergonomic Mouse with 2 DPI, 6 Button Optical Ergo Mouse with 2 Level DPI Switch 1000 1600, Left Handed, Black

[No compensation of any kind was received in connection with this review.] Old age and years of pointing and clicking have left me with moderate wrist pain if I use an ordinary mouse. I began exploring vertical mice a few years ago and, as I'm left-handed, the field of contenders was pretty small. I first tried the only offering from the BigBrand mouse company. It eased the pain, but that mouse is a very poor match for my left hand: it seems hard to grip, awkward to maneuver, and my thumb can't reach either of the thumb buttons. Also, the BigBrand vertical mouse is way too expensive. Then I found the Perimice-713L from Perixx, a company unfamiliar to me. This mouse feels just right in my hand, it points, clicks, and tracks exactly as it ought, and the price is about one-third of BigBrand's. I've used the 713-L with three variants of Linux (Kubuntu, Fedora, Debian) with no difficulties at all. In fact, I've got just one suggested improvement, and it's quite minor. There's a switch that selects one of three DPI levels; I wish there were an LED that signals which level is currently selected. Would I buy another one? I already have: I've now got three of these Perixx mice, one at each of three different locations. Try to find a way to handle a vertical mouse before you buy one. The BigBrand mouse is good, in most respects, but it's plain uncomfortable for me in daily usage. The Perimice 713-L works far better in my hand; that it costs only a fraction of the BigBrand price is merely a bonus.

Like most people who still rely heavily on a computer and a mouse to read articles, play games, and type communications, the side issue has always been a sore wrist from frequent use. Before this purchase, my wireless mouse was the typical small turtle shell shape, easy to maneuver, but painful with extended use. Being left handed also made finding a good mouse difficult. Knowing nothing about options for mice, I came across this one and thought the design made sense, providing it still does the job, and maybe without so much wrist pain. I was very surprised it did exactly that. Your hand fits into it like a handshake and with practice works fine. I will say adjusting the control of the mouse takes a bit of work as the hand movement won't feel natural at first. But stick with it. It's worth it. Highly recommended.

I had surgery on my right shoulder and needed a left-hand mouse for awhile. When I saw this mouse at its price, I decided to take the opportunity to try out an ergonomic mouse as well. I found a mixed bag. Most of the positives have to do with the quality of the mouse for the price. It seems to be decently constructed of good materials and, despite taking a number of tumbles to the floor (more on that later), has held up very well. I have been buying expensive mice for years and I've got to say that this one has really surprised me in a positive way. If you're looking for an ergonomic mouse for a decent price, this is one you should seriously consider. There are some negatives, and these mostly have to do with the facts of life with an ergonomic mouse. The concept is good, but it's taking me quite a long time to get used to the new hand position, which results in my not having a good grip on the mouse and having difficulty clicking either button without moving the mouse, and a lot of difficulty double clicking it and having the computer recognize it as a double click. I believe this has more to do with my adaptability and learning to use my left hand than with the design of the mouse. But, when I get it right, the mouse is very comfortable in my hand and works quite nicely. Similarly, I'm having trouble moving the mouse pointer or cursor accurately. I'm also having trouble adjusting the dpi. There's a button and their advertising mentions that there are three different resolutions, but the instructions that come with the unit are very sketchy and do not describe how to adjust the setting at all. You're on you own on this one, and I'm not sure that I've figured it out yet myself. An ergonomic mouse is considerably higher than a traditional mouse. Keep in mind that if you are using your mouse on a retractable keyboard/mouse tray, this may require you to have to lower the tray in order to allow room for the mouse to fit when you slide it under the work surface. And, one final detail: The additional height of the mouse also means that you have to raise your hand higher to get it over the mouse when you move your hand from the keyboard to the mouse. I seem to forget this often and so my mouse hits the floor frequently when my hand knocks it off of the tray. Recommendation: If you're looking for a good quality ergonomic left-handed mouse, this is one to consider.

マウス自体は大変使いやすく、疲れにくい。あとは慣れ次第。

Köpte den för att träna vänster hand, för att jag brukar få ont i höger axel med en vanlig mus, då jag är högerhänt. Funkar så bra att jag kommer att köpa en för högerhänta också för att se hur det funkar. Den är dock lite för liten för mina stora händer, men man lär sig väl.

Update after ~3years of heavy usage - Overall, very satisfied with the mouse, unlikely I will ever go back to a standard flat mouse post this purchase. The vertical mouse is super comfortable to the wrists. The mouse wheel has started getting wonky, scroll down sometimes results in a scrollup. The other buttons are still fine. Time to purchase a new one. -- After ~1 month of usage. The mouse is angled so that the palm is a near natural position, and helps usage for prolonged duration. While adjusting to the mouse position is almost natural, mouse movements needs some adjustment. The resting pressure point also shifts to the bottom left of the palm compared to the wrist joint in case of a regular mouse. Since there is a DPI switch as well, one needs to play around for optimum settings. The mouse seems to be well built and has an adequate cord length. On the flipside, minor niggles, the mouse buttons are made of shiny smooth plastic, which does not feel nice and is a dust magnet. There is a built in LED that is a bit distracting.

Lo uso para trabajar y estudiar, y va fenomenal. Muy cómodo.

Lo he comprado para un regalo, por dolor en el antebrazo/muñeca y me ha dicho que le va genial, y que nota menos dolor al ser más ergonómica la posición trabajando con el ratón. Está encantado con el. Muy bueno!!
