Ergodriven Om Vertical Ergonomic Mouse | Wireless: Bluetooth & 2.4G | Rechargeable, Optical, 4 DPI Levels, 5 Custom Buttons | for PC, Mac, Laptop, Computer | Silent Click | Copy/Paste Function

As a PC Gamer, I bought this mouse for PC Gaming. I know it's not billed as such, and it certainly doesn't look "Gamer". It doesn't have RGB, or overinflated specs, and it's not overpriced, but it works very well for gaming! I have grown to love vertical mouses for gaming because of the hand and wrist comfort. But I have also grown accustomed to at least 3 or 4 programmable mouse buttons... Specifically the thumb buttons. The inherent problem of a vertical mouse for gaming is torque drift. It's when the pressing of the L/R buttons can cause micro horizontal drift while aiming and shooting. This Egodriven OM addressed those issues with ergonomics and button design. And it delivers! Torque drift is reduced or even removed with the design of this mouse. I feel very accurate, maybe even more accurate than traditional mouse designs. I have "Gamer" mouses that cost alot more, with "better specs" of polling rates and DPI, etc. but this mouse works as good or even better than all of them. The comfort and quality of this mouse is excellent! The buttons are reliable and crisp, and the tracking is smooth and accurate. The soft fingertip actuation of the L/R buttons reduces torque drift while aiming and shooting in FPS, and the assignable buttons can be set for jump/dodge/roll/ping/chat/etc. just how I like it. The built in screen is great and shows my current battery percentage and DPI setting. I no longer have to memorize color coded DPI settings through RGB like other gamer mouses. I can just glance at the screen and press the DPI button for on-the-fly changes. I also don't have to wait for flashing RGBs to signal a drained battery. My one nitpick is the button assignment function. They can only be assigned to a limited preset selection of commands inside the mouse's firmware. They cannot be assigned to any button on the keyboard. This can cause limited options for some games and commands. However, this mouse is not sold as a "gamer" mouse, and the low price is amazing for what you get. So far, I have been able to work around this limitation, and still get the assignments I want. But it may cause me some future problems with games I haven't yet played with this mouse. Overall, it's pretty unbelievable that a mouse this good is so cheap. It certainly punches above its price point, and it's far more practical than what you may think. I highly recommend it!

The features this mouse offers for the price point are just insane. I've only had it about a week so I can't speak to longevity, but I'm loving it so far. USB dongle or Bluetooth connectivity is a very nice thing to have. It requires no software to bind any button (except left and right click buttons) to any of the predefined options, of which there are very many. For those wondering, yes, you can charge it and use it at the same time if it were to die on you. The vertical orientation was odd at first, but now other mice feel uncomfortable by comparison. The additional buttons behind the left and right click can be actuated via your index and middle finger knuckles, and are VERY useful for my purposes. This makes an excellent CAD mouse in my opinion, which is what I'm using it for in my schooling. TL;DR, best 30 bucks I've ever spent on a mouse. If you like vertical mice with lots of button functionality, get one yesterday

Best Vertical mouse with 5 extra buttons perfect for gaming. Ergonomics was the selling point and they sold me on that too. I am giving it a 4 star because I needed a little more customization. There is no software which would make the basic user happy but I do like options and having them widely available to tinker with. The preset bindings for the customizable keys were serviceable but I went ahead and used Microsoft powertoys for more defined options for keys. Also the LOD(lift off distance) was way too high on this mouse which is only a big problem if you game or use a low sensitivity. to fix this, I used a piece of electrical tape to half the mouse rays field of view which made it near perfect LOD for me. The buttons are great, the positioning of them are intuitive and I can use this mouse for hours with very little pain build up in my wrist. it took me about a week of using it to become familiar with its vertical feel and because it reduces my wrist pain, Ive grown to love it.

Why I got this mouse: I got an ergo mouse because I noticed my hand's natural grip on my mouse made it so if I try to push my mouse directly up by just extending my arm, it goes diagonally to the right as I hold it at an angle (and my middle mouse was broken) Pros: Customizing the buttons is incredibly easy. No bloated software that requires startup permissions, just pure engineering and firmware on the mouse itself. This is impressive from a company that makes standing mats. It would still be impressive if a major mouse manufacturer made this. The far-back left and right click buttons are not easy to accidentally hit, meaning they can comfortably be used for audio player controls. The silent clicks on the main left and right click buttons are very satisfying and yet they still have enough feedback to know when you've clicked. It is *impossible* to hear the clicks unless your head is right next to the mouse. The same cannot be said about side buttons or the far-back ones though. OLED screen is high quality, which kinda encourages me to try getting a custom image on it for the lulz Cons: The manual is a QR code, and the mouse did not come with a charging cable. It also seems to encourage moving the mouse with the wrist more than the fingers, which could somewhat harm gaming performance until you adjust The mouse turns off from inactivity to save on power, and requires you to press any button to wake it up. This is annoying considering I went from a wired mouse to this The sensor is not ultra high spec, which means it's power-efficient, but they could probably squeeze out more power by using an e-ink screen (and it would not require the screen to be turned off to save battery, as e-ink stores its state without using any power) rather than oled since it doesn't need high refresh rate It's pretty heavy for a mouse, and it is bottom-heavy

This mouse went beyond my expectations and is the best ergonomic/vertical mouse, let alone mouse period that I've owned. Not only affordable but excellently crafted with care and ergonomics in mind. The soft click mouse1/2 is great and the extra buttons are wonderfully placed, right where your fingers already are, rather than like other mice where you have to adjust your hand or finger positioning to hit them. The two right behind the left/right click are awesome. Battery life is amazing, lasted a month and a half and that's with work and gaming. Love that the display shows me everything I need to know and being able to program on the fly with the mouse itself is a dream, compared to needing to download software and figure it out on that. Very highly recommended, you can't go wrong with this mouse!

Shockingly good ergonomic, vertical mouse, wireless (2.4 or BT) at this price point. My hand is about 7.25" from index finger to wrist / the end of my 'thumb pad', and this is easily the most comfortable mouse grip I've ever had. Compared to every other such mouse at a similar price range, you're getting two additional main left/right buttons, which contrary to what you may think, at least what I thought, you do not end up accidentally clicking. The way the grip works just makes that not happen. Oh, and those two extra buttons are macro customizable. I've set up one of mine to bind to a screen zoom function on my OS, just as an example. You've also got 3 thumb buttons, not the more standard 2... those can all be macro reassigned as well, and doing the reassignment doesn't require any software on your PC, its entirely contained within the mouse itself. Criticisms? Add a simple image or two that explains how to adjust the custom button macros/bindings to either your webpage or the store listing here on Amazon, or the little instruction placard that comes in the box. Mildly annoying to have to watch an unlisted youtube video for that information. But that's not really a problem with the mouse itself. Overall? Affordable, practical, best feature set out of comparable mice in this price tier. I'm honestly kind of shocked this thing is not super popular, you don't need to have carpal tunnel to appreciate this thing, its a little weird at first, but it makes so much more sense than a traditional mouse after maybe a day or less of use. I actually hope that one day there will be a 'premium' version of this mouse with a higher polling rate... of course that would make such a mouse cost more, and its current polling rate is more than fine for general productivity/office use, but I'd encourage Ergodriven to make basically a 'gamer' or 'premium' version of this same mouse, pop a fancier PixArt chip in there, and ya'll could maybe grab a share of the aging Millenial/Gen X PC Gamer cohort, hah! If you really wanna go into actual design refinements/changes maybe look into different kinds of modular, attachable/detachable grip pads for where your thumb and pointer finger grip, maybe also the pinky finger area? But the actual shape of the thing as it is... is just stellar, at least for myself, so don't change it too much!

First off, yes the ergonomics are good - I prefer larger mice and it was a bit small for my hand, but yes the mouse designed for ergonomics is good at ergonomics. The onboard OLED is fantastic especially at this price point. It doesn't do much except display connection state and allow you to bind (limited) keys, but still it's a very nice addition. The mouse is very comfortable. The silent clicks at the front are excellent, but all the other buttons do not have the same switch - just normal clicky switches. The liftoff on the sensor is the issue - it uses a standard sensor you see in all very cheap mice - the liftoff distance is more than an inch sometimes and it will continue tracking. If you usually move your mouse, pick it up, and move it again, this will quickly get annoying because you're not doing that. The other issue is the keybindings - they're very limited. I was unable to bind what I needed to, so will have to return it - there is no way to change the list of available keys to bind as everything is on-mouse, and this implementation of it is limited. The idea is there though, and I like the idea. If you're just using it for standard office work and aren't concerned about things like liftoff and sensor performance, just want a mouse, this is a good choice. But if you care about sensor quality and need specific keybindings, sure try it but maybe not the best option overall.

After destroying my former mouse, I thought I would venture into the realm of ergonomics this time 'round. The additional buttons compared to the typical mouse was the main draw. Customizing the button bindings is very simple and done *through* the mouse itself rather than some required piece of software. This was quite convenient and done via the small display on the top of the mouse, holding the DPI button, pressing the button you wish to configure, and using the mousewheel to select what you want the button to do. The list of shortcuts seems very robust and I was easily able to rebind the buttons below the left/right click to volume up and down. As this was my first ergonomic mouse, it took a few hours to get used to but after playing a point-and-click video game, I already find myself comfortable with the new posture. The mouse feels great, accurate, responsive, and fits perfectly in my large hand. As for the buttons themselves, the left & right click buttons have a very soft sound and feel to the clicks while the rest of the buttons are a bit more noticeable but not enough to be distracting nor disturbing. The mouse wheel has a satisfying ratcheting bumpy feel to the scroll to let you know when the scroll actuates. The mouse had a bit of mass to it compared to other mice that I have used, but I don't see myself becoming fatigued after prolonged use. Switching between two devices is quick and easy with the switch on the bottom of the mouse. Having the USB dongle plugged into my computer while having he mouse paired with my phone's bluetooth was the other main draw for me to buy this mouse. This multiple device support feels spot-on and was what convinced me to go wireless. The solid black design fits well with just about any setup and the combination of matte and gloss parts is quite nice to look at. Finally, the small LCD screen is easy to glance at and displays the current connection mode, DPI level, battery charge, and configuration menu while rebinding buttons. Despite only using the mouse for a small amount of time so far, I can say that I expect to enjoy this mouse for quite some time in the future.
