I've used several wired Trackman Wheel T-BB18 mice over the years and one of these TM570 Cordless Trackman Wheels before buying a new one. The wired Trackman is of somewhat higher quality than the cordless version (and are a cult favorite) but the cordless version is still very nice, and features a rocker button in addition to the wheel that you can customize to scroll or quickly navigate pages. Battery life is excellent in this model -- one battery will last for a year or more. The wired version is shaped slightly better to fit the hand, and the Cordless's clicking noise can be distracting. I've taken apart a T-BB18 for cleaning, and I imagine the clicker can be silenced or muted a bit with some DIY. But, all in all, these TM570's are still very comfortable to use and are a nice pairing for laptops or minimal desk setups.Read full review

This mouse is notorious for quickly wearing out its button switches, which results in flakey button performance (difficult to grab text, unintended double-clicks, etc.). The ergonomic design of the trackball is good, so I picked up a used M570 that appeared to be in excellent condition. But it turned out to be that way only on the outside. Soon after I started using the mouse, the problems with worn out switches became apparent. Now, I have to either toss the mouse or replace the switches. Just what I wanted...a repair job that probably takes an hour or more to do. I can see why the previous owner sold the mouse, and why so many used M570's are available.

Pros -best mouse I have ever used . 20 plus years of mousing. Used to get pain in my hands until I started using this mouse. It was actually recommended by my ergo department . I am on my 5th. Cons- the track ball rides on three tiny bearings. The bearings get dirty & requires constant cleaning. It's easy you just pop the ball out & wipe them. They do eventually wear out. I would say maximum life span is about three years & then you have to replace the mouse. Keep in mind I use it all day- 5 to 6 days a week & 8 to 10 hours a day. With that said I still would rather spend the money than have the pain & I have found no better for my use & preference . I work in a call center for a very large insurance company and am a office production worker . For me this is the golden ticket and I really prefer a thumb track ball. I have used others types of track balls but I am faster with this mouse .Read full review

I was looking for a replacement for my mouse and this fits the bill. I was having problems with radiating pain in my rear right shoulder from constant use of the mouse. In researching the problem I found that a lot of doctors recommend the switch to a trackball. This is very comfortable to use and with the trackball it can be used in a smaller space than a mouse. The fact that it has the unifying feature is also a plus for easy setup with the unifying receiver that I had used for my keyboard and mouse.

As you can see from the picture the M570 trackball mouse is a right hand only mouse so not suitable for a left handed person. It's a good overall mouse and lasts quite awhile. I don't give it 5 stars though as the Logitec software sometimes reacts badly with Windows. It is my favorite Logitec mouse though so if you use one consider this design if you're right handed. Since it does have bluetooth receiver it works with my Logitec keyboard as well so that is a plus despite the what I consider to be a somewhat high price brand new. I like that the mouse keys are very customizable. Having said that another downside is the bluetooth receiver is USB and soon I will move to a USB C mac so not sure if it will work on a dongle. I tried the wired mouse that could go either hand, but that one seemed to conflict with Windows even more so wasn't that usefull and I thought it was expensive and cheaply made for the price Logitec was asking. The ball was quite loose and it will fall out so I have to be careful if moving location with my equipment.Read full review
