About ELECOM EX-G Left Handed Trackball Mouse
Overall Feedback:
75% positive
63% liked the easy connectivity, but 37% found it difficult
The trackball suddenly stopped connecting.
I faced issues with the cursor jittering and skipping in both axis, making it difficult to position it on smaller UI elements. It looks like a design flaw and the sensors and entire tracking mechanism are poor and not sufficient for any real work.
68% liked its durability, but 32% experienced wear and tear
My trackball's scroll wheel has gone wonky after just two years of very light use.
Sometimes the trackball is so bothersome that I stop working and switch to a less mouse-intensive activity.
After 1.5 years, the product died despite trying several fixes. It should have lasted longer for the price.
71% appreciated the comfortable grip, 29% found it uncomfortable
The product is comfortable to hold and ergonomic.
The trackball fits nicely in my hand and is designed for left-handed users.
For my medium-small hands, the scroll wheel is uncomfortable to use as it is placed too far back towards the palm.
73% praised the high-quality sensor, while 27% experienced accuracy issues
I have complained about the poor sensor quality of the mouse. The cursor jitters and skips in both axes, making it difficult to position on smaller UI elements. It seems like a design flaw and the sensors and tracking mechanism are simply not sufficient for any real work.
I have personally experienced that the scroll wheel of the trackball uses an electro-mechanical rotary encoder sensor which needs to be kept clean to avoid noisy or cut out signals. The technology used in the scroll wheel is similar to the volume controls on old stereos, which would crackle and cut out. This negative feedback is based on my experience and highlights the sensor quality of computer-trackballs.
