Just like sitting in an office chair all day isn’t good for your health, using a traditional mouse for hours on end does a number on your body. Those small, repetitive movements and awkward hand positions take a serious toll on your wrist, forearm, and even your shoulder — which is why I switched to a trackball mouse many years ago.
Not too long after I made the switch, though, a different kind of mouse started blowing up. Although the vertical mouse was first introduced by inventor Jack Lo back in 1994, it wasn’t until the launch of the Logitech MX Vertical in 2018 that they actually became mainstream.
