About this deal

It was clear from the separate USB connector that I had received the correct model – no confusion between wired and wireless options here.

Our editors hand-pick these products using a variety of criteria: they might be direct competitors targeting the same market segment, or they could be devices that are similar in size, performance, or feature sets. This arrangement is, of course, flipped on its side, but a quick grip of the mouse shows that they’re in the right position for your fingers. The mouse came in around 6 hours ago, so I chucked the other sad and exhausted mouse to the side, hunted down some AAA batteries and I was off to the races.This allows you to make a quick speed change, without having to dive into the mouse settings screen. Anker actively participates in the Mailback Program in the District of Columbia, USA, promoting easy and accessible recycling. The mouse has an on/off switch under its base and we believe it also has an auto-off facility, in case you forget to switch it off, however we can’t confirm that.

Despite my dislike of the forward and back button positions, I am impressed with the ergonomics of the Anker 2. wireless mouse performs exactly as it should, and the shallow angle of this particular “vertical” mouse means that you won’t struggle to adjust to it, when coming from a normal mouse. Now, this could be viewed as a feature as we should not be applying a deathgrip, as it will only cause greater issued with our wrists that we are trying to avoid in the first place. So it’s back to the Evoluent for my left hand and a choice between the Anker and Evoluent for my right.I don’t think this will be an issue for anyone else, unless they also transition from a 3 button mouse.

Tactile feel is entirely gone, and for someone who spends 7 hours a day dealing with several thousand lined spreadsheets, that is not acceptable. Enters power saving mode (power is cut off completely) after 8 minutes idle, press right or left button for it to wake.

It is partially compatible with Mac OS X with the two thumb buttons not being recognized and isn’t compatible at all with the Mac OS X El Capitan. Its tall vertical design does minimize much of the wrist movement associated with RSI and carpal tunnel syndrome. They don't come in a nice variety of colors and patterns like tiny Logitech mice, but they also don't break when I drop them. On the one hand, I appreciate it’s not Anker’s problem, per se, but it shouldn’t have to be like this. For something that handles our IoT business, perhaps that's safer; Getting a new IPv4 address every week or so is a minimal step against an intruder, but it is a step.Whether dragging and dropping, selecting large volumes of data, or casually gaming, this mouse provides a low-cost, effective solution for multiple computing needs. First of all If your using windows, you can go Into settings and program these buttons and also set them to function for all apps.

Simply put, I wore out the scrolling mechanism in my non-Anker branded ergonomic mouse I use for work. The Logitech will be better suited for multimedia, but if you're looking to reduce the strain on your wrist, the Anker is a better option. All in all, the advantages outweigh the negatives with the AK-UBA, and we’re not the only people that believe a good vertical mouse can alleviate wrist issues. We no longer recommend this mouse however if you can’t afford what we do recommend, this mouse is better than a standard mouse.

Once switched on, you’ll see a small red light start to flash on the lower part of the “go faster stripe” I mentioned earlier. This means that by default, I can’t help comparing the Anker alternative to Evoluent, at pretty much every turn. The Anker ergonomic optical mouse effortlessly combines functionality and comfort, ticking off a box that every computer user wants to see in an ergonomic mouse. Other settings on my machine occasionally get forgotten in between sessions, but I’m not fully convinced this is the cause in this case. The Anker has the typical 2 button style, with a scroll wheel in between, which doubles as a third button.
