Logitech Lift Vertical Ergonomic Mouse, Wireless Bluetooth or USB Receiver, Quiet Clicks, 4 Buttons, Left Hand Wireless Mouse, Windows/macOS/iPadOS, Laptop, PC - Graphite

Really crappy auto driver install. Locked up my USB ports for my usb keyboard, usb mouse, all usb ports in fact. Had to reboot multiple times with an old style 5pin keyboard since the software screwed up my usb ports. All of them. Lucky I have a motherboard with an old style keyboard port. A reboot of W11 in safe mode, ripped out auto-installed software, registry keys and rebooted to regain control of my USB ports. I do not know what went wrong. Alls I know is Logitech loaded something, it locked up my USB ports and I had to rip everything Logitech out to get control again. I downloaded the software, installed it and it worked fine. I've had no problems since.I'm an old lefty and as such am ambidextrous in most areas, since there just was not left handed oriented items readily available. You had to have left handed stuff made so you learned to do things right handed. I've developed carpal tunnel in both elbows and had purchased a couple of vertical mice, one left and one right. I took the left into work and was looking for a replacement. My other two were around $30 ea. I liked the right handed vertical mouse (Anker). They do not make a left handed version. The left handed mouse is ok, not as good as the Anker. I decided to go above my spend tolerance and get the Logi after reading many reviews. It has not disappointed me. The auto-install sucked. Never letting that happen again.It is a nice smooth mouse. Fine movements that are easily adjustable. The hand position is excellent. I can use this all day without switching to the right because of elbow pain. If you have the pain, you know what I am talking about when it flares. It takes some getting used to the subtlety of the clicks when coming from lower cost mice. Soft and gently like a newborn's ....One of my big criteria for a vertical mouse is a landing area for the outer two fingers (pinky and next to pinky for finger orientation challenged). When you go to a vertical mouse, it takes some adjustment to moving the mouse since you can't really press down with your palm and inside two fingers (the ones next to the outside two fingers). It is helpful to be able to use the two outer fingers and thumb to aid in moving the mouse. You have to experience a vertical mouse to understand. The right handed only Anker goes from an inch to a half inch in the length of my pinky below the buttons on the side. This is a really nice landing area for the outside fingers to assist moving the mouse around. You can squeeze a little and the mouse glides. The Logi mouse is a wee shorter than the Anker and the area below the buttons in a mostly straight 3/4". Both mice curve quickly down to the inside below this area. I was used to a vertical mouse by the time I purchased the Logi and I have no issues with the pinky dragging the table and the finger next to pinky resting on the landing. I move the mouse with no problems. It is the subtlety of how one interacts with these style of mice. The big plus, takes a long time before mouse use causes pain flareups. And this isn't just a pain and done. Depending on how one ignores the pain, often determines how many days life sucks. The Logi mouse minimizes the flare ups. I'm thinking of taking the Anker in and getting a right handed Logi for home. I like the Anker, I'm frugal and highly recommend it for getting your feet wet. I love the Logi (auto-install sucks) and will probably ignore my frugal tendencies and get a right handed one since I don't switch hands as frequently with the Logi in the mix. Don't have to suffer auto-install either.

This was one of those risky purchases for me. Wasn't sure if I'd be able to adjust to using a lifted mouse like this. After months of use, I'm happy to say that this is the best mouse I have ever owned. The tilted angle was not as difficult to get used to as I thought it might be, in fact, it was instantly natural feeling. I can say that the strain on my wrist has lessoned after using this mouse for long periods of time.The battery life is amazing. As of writing this, I've been using this mouse daily for hours on end for the past 6 months and the battery life is currently at 60%. The Bluetooth pairing switch is a great feature as well. I can easily flip between my personal PC and my work laptop with ease.The only downside is the price. It could have been a bit cheaper, but in the end I don't regret the purchase.

I've never really noticed how I use a mouse until I got this one. I tend to work with very little space, so I'd pick up the mouse to reposition it when scrolling over a large area (I use two 1080p monitors so that's a lot of scrolling to get from one side to another).I'm currently using a left handed wired vertical mouse (Perixx Perimice 513L). It's cheap (under $20), light, and comfortable. Picking up the mouse to reposition it is not a problem. And it's also the right size for my hands.But I'm seduced by the Logitech brand, so I decided to give this one a try, despite it not having one for larger hands. I figured I could live with the Lift. And I think I can get used to it.However, the mouse is too heavy and doesn't have the grip to pick up easily to reposition. Instead, I need to either tilt it to reposition, or move my thumb lower, under the "lip", so that it can be picked up easily. Depending on how you use the mouse, this may irk you, or it may be a non-issue.Another issue I have is that the SmartWheel clicks loudly when scrolling in one direction and not the other. I think this is a defect with this particular mouse and I'm getting it replaced. I have another mouse with SmartWheel and there's no annoying click.Other than that, I like the mouse. Especially the battery compartment. This is the first Logitech mouse (or any mouse, for that matter) where the battery compartment is secured with magnets. It makes it SO EASY to open. It makes me almost sad that I don't need to replace batteries often (Logitech claims a 2 year battery life).I also like the silent buttons - they may not have the satisfying CLICK but they're a lot better if you need to use the computer late at night or in a quiet environment. I do wish there's an option for either clicky or silent buttons though. Even the side (forward / back) buttons are silent.One slight problem with the software install - when I plug it in, it prompted me to install Options+. After rebooting my computer, it turned out that it wasn't installed for some reason. I tried to install it manually, but made a mistake and installed Options instead (not supported). After uninstalling that, I decided I don't really need the software after all (didn't need to reprogram the buttons) so I'm using it without any Logitech software.It's not perfect, but it's Logitech's best left handed mouse in a long time. Especially compared to the M650L. But if it's too expensive, take a look at the Perixx.
