Comfy and accurate - The best mouse I ever owned was a trackball, about 20 years ago. But I was lucky and found it very cheap, they normally cost a fortune. Second-best was probably the "nipple" built into an IBM Thinkpad. But out of the dozens of regular mice I've owned and used over the years, this is the best one! It's weird to use, for about a week then it fits like a glove. Much less strain than a normal mouse, they seem to have invented it to fit human hands and fingers properly, your fingers click and move it with a normal range of movement. Mice weren't originally invented with ergonomics in mind, and the history since the 1960s has just been them copying each other. But not these. The weird sideways design is really good! It's comfy, and I play a lot of games and do a lot of mousing. They're a good price, have 2 bonus buttons on the side, and a resolution-switch button as well. With a completely free program called X-Mouse Button Control, you can redefine the side buttons if you want to, I have mine as volume controls. But you don't have to. It's a good idea and they've made it well, would recommend. Review: A solution for carpal tunnel? - Having stupidly denied an operation to rid of my carpal tunnel a few years back, I am now finding it very difficult to make the time to go and get surgery, I also run a couple of businesses from home and the idea of not being able to use my right arm correctly gives me the heeby-jeebys! I am also a bit of a gamer and invest a lot of my time and money on computers, so I was not expecting this to perform like a pro gaming mouse. I have used this mouse for less than a week which is more than enough time for me to know of any obvious flaws in design and operation. The ergonomics simply work, it was getting to a point of frustration not being able to use a mouse because of the pain caused by my carpal tunnel and apart from other weird sensations carpal tunnel causes, I noticed it most whilst using a mouse. This mouse was bought on a whim and I honestly was not expecting much, but having used it now for this week, I have kind of fallen in love with it. Yes, this mouse is very strange when you first use it and there is a small mental adjustment you have to make compared to a normal mouse. But you will notice immediately that the ergonomics of this mouse allow your hand to rest in a position that does not bother carpal tunnel, I cant say this is a definite cure but it has most certainly reduced my pain by up to 80% and I have found myself staying up much longer than usual getting my work done. The quality of the mouse is good, there is a small issue that where for 1000 clicks or so it won't register a click along with the fact the DPI is much lower meaning it is much less accurate than my other mouse but these small niggles are noting and I would prefer them than the constant pain from my carpal tunnel. For less than a tenner, it's definitely worth a punt to see if you feel more comfortable. In fact, I would go as far to say that this is a much more natural position for your arm to sit and feel this should be the default shape of mouses. Also, 1 other annoying thing. If you are like me and you work from home and like to slide left to right on the desk, working on computer, picking something up to write and a bit of a fidget, you will find your self-moving your hand to the left of the mouse as if you are going over it and knocking it down as it is higher than your usual mouse, again another small thing you have to adjust to. I buy a lot of ANKER things, some of them have lasted a long time whilst others, not so much. Fingers crossed this stays alive for a good time. ## Features - Scientific ergonomic design encourages healthy neutral "handshake" wrist and arm positions for smoother movement and less overall strain. - 1000/1600 DPI Resolution Optical Tracking Technology provides more sensitivity than standard optical mice for smooth and precise tracking on a wide range of surfaces. - Added next/previous buttons provide convenience when webpage browsing; the superior choice for internet surfers, gamers and people who work at length at the computer. - 1.5m/4.9ft USB cable length, product dimensions: 120*62.8*74.8 mm; product weight: 5.3 oz. - Package includes: 1 Anker Vertical Ergonomic Optical Mouse (with 4.9 ft cable), 1 instruction manual.

Tx** A: Hi. The wireless one, with the two AAA batteries (but the USB sender removed) weighs 113 grams. Without the batteries it weighs 90 grams. The one with the cable, including the entire cable, weighs 151 grams. I hope this helps **Q: Can the extra buttons be programmed? as an rsi sufferer, i like to have a button assigned to dbl-click.** A: You can if you download "5-button mouse" driver from Anker website. It can be found under link "Driver" in "Download list" for "2000 DPI Wireless Mouse with Side Controls" or by this direct link: https://d2211byn0pk9fi.cloudfront.net/spree/accessories/attachments/70511/914F78623355D05_setup.exe?1533027869 (2019-03-11) **Q: Is this a right handed or left handed mouse? I am after a left handed vertical mouse. If not, can you advise me where to look** A: This particular one is a right-handed mouse. I've just had a quick look, and unfortunately all the left-handed vertical mice I can find are comparatively expensive. Here's a good example: http://www.amazon.com/Plantronics-Evoluent-VerticalMouse-Left-VM4L/dp/B00427OTEU ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great!

I can't afford one of the Evoluent ones, so was looking at this price range. I was glad to see the Anker mouse at a good price, and it had good reviews. It is quite comfortable, accurate, and has good resolution. It also feels better made than the slightly cheaper Accuratus models, but it is not as 'natural' feeling to me. For me the buttons are far to low on the side of the unit, and means you drag your outer fingers across the desk. This leaves the weird plastic knob at the top seeming to be rather superfluous, and a bit of a waste of plastic. For my larger hands, the page up/page down buttons are in the wrong place, and practically useless to me. Because the buttons are too low, this also means the scroll wheel is at a strange angle, so you find your finger is dragging across it, rather than a smooth operation. I'm also not sure that it has enough of an angle to assist with RSI problems, but only time will tell on that. Overall, a good device, but I feel it could have been better thought out without causing a cost increase - such as better location of the buttons, less wasted plastic moulding, and a slightly steeper angle. At this price though, it's worth a try if you want to easy wrist pain issues. Notes to add (18/03/13): After my review was posted here, I was contacted very quickly by Anker, who were very keen to resolve the negative points I raised. I have to say they are keen to please and did send me a partial refund to compensate me for the product not meeting my expectations fully. They did offer a no quibble return and full refund, and communicated very promptly - although I have opted to keep it, as it is still better than a flat mouse, even if not entirely perfect as a vertical mouse. Although those points are still valid, I have got more used to it now, and I find it is not too bad now I've been using it for a while - certainly better than a fully flat mouse anyway. It's definitely worth considering - I've upped the rating from 3 to 4 stars, simply for the very good customer service - for which I have to say thank you. ## Frequently Bought Together - Anker® Ergonomic Optical USB Wired Vertical Mouse 1000 / 1600 DPI, 5 Buttons - Logitech K120 Wired Business Keyboard for Windows or Linux, USB Plug-and-Play, Full-Size, Spill Resistant, Curved Space Bar, PC/Laptop, QWERTY UK Layout - Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.it/products/48852357-anker-ergonomic-optical-usb-wired-vertical-mouse-1000-1600-dpi](https://www.desertcart.it/products/48852357-anker-ergonomic-optical-usb-wired-vertical-mouse-1000-1600-dpi) --- *Product available on Desertcart Italy* *Store origin: IT* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
