"Logitech has revealed the MX Vertical, a new Mac and Windows mouse intended to reduce muscle strain for some people by putting the wrist in a less stressful position."

 

Would love to see LTT review this product. A new ergonomic peripheral from a mainstream peripheral company seems right up their alley.

 

It connects via Bluetooth, USB-C, or a dongle (not sure whether it's a USB-A dongle or what).

Wait this is new? I thought this came out like 6 months ago?

It's probably the Logitech Unifying Receiver, which is a very tiny little black rectangle stuck on a USB-A plug.

Logitech, maybe but vertical mice have been out for over a decade.

I've tried other vertical mice (Evolution something or other?) and it ironically made my hand hurt where I've never had a problem with a regular mouse.  

 

My experience in general is that people in the office have bitch wrists.  "oh it hurts" after like an hour and meanwhile I can sit in the least ergonomic position with my wrist bent at 45 degrees and do that for 8 hours without issue.

Not for me apparently.  I spend all day every day on the computer at my desk and then go home and spend more time at my own computer.  

 

Hence my claim that other people must have bitch wrists and mine are superior from being a pcgamermasterrace enthusiast.

No way, you mean people's body react differently!!!
