    I have used a Kensington trackball just like this one for years, but a wired one. The wire had started to become flaky and I got tired of hearing the constant disconnect connect sound USB stuff makes on a windows machine so I researched wireless trackballs. I like trackballs as they require the least desktop space and I don't need a mouse-pad either.Now onto the review of the product here, this is very nice. all blacked out, except the obvious red ball, and very clean without the wire sticking out the back. A gorgeous unit. I love the round scroll wheel that goes around the ball, very easy to use and you can use it to perpetually scroll which is great for social media like Twitter you never need to lift your finger to keep scrolling. Just keep on spinning as long as you want to keep scrolling.With 4 programmable buttons, by default without installing any software at all the lower two are standard left and right clicks and the top left acts as a middle mouse button. The upper right doesn't seem to do anything by default. I haven't downloaded or installed any software but I do believe there is software to customize the buttons to whatever you want. I also really like the battery save mode that if you don't use it for a while it powers down the transmitter and is really quite responsive when you move the ball it is less than a second and is waking up the computer.When I know I will be away for a while like when I go to work or bed I turn it off just to save even more power as it will continue to monitor the ball sensor to know when you move the ball even in sleep mode, it cant be much but I want to get as much out of my batteries as I can. And the button is so convenient and easy to use so it is just too easy.The one thing I didn't like about this trackball was the way the batteries go in. There is no indicator as to how they go in. Also they both go in facing the same way, which was very odd. There is a nice pull strip to easily get the batteries back out to make changing them very easy.All in all I would recommend this Kensington trackball, I had actually been looking for this exact model for years. There are not very many wireless trackballs on the market, I am assuming due to low demand. I have big hands so using standard mice generally give me hand cramps. They never move around smoothly so I always have to grip them just to move them around so I just really don't like them. With a trackball I only need to move the ball and this one fits my hand quite nicely. it is rather large, if you have ever seen the wired version of the Kensington scroll wheel "Expert Mouse" trackball in stores it is exactly the same size, which made it super easy to transition over to this new unit from my wired version. It is 6 inches (15cm) front to back and 5 inches (12cm) wide.The photos in this Bolo page are exactly what it looks like, a very clean matte black with a high gloss black accent around the buttons. Only two easy to use buttons on the bottom one is on/off and the other is bluetooth/usb-wireless-adapter.Oh, one last note, it does come with the USB plug in unit but I am using it on the bluetooth and it is working super great so my review of functionality is with using the bluetooth and not the usb wireless adapter.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Impressive quality!

    I bought this to replace an older one of the same model, that has always (from new) had a crappy scroll ring. I tried everything, lube, taking it apart and cleaning, etc. It just never was smooth and accurate. Something I have read in other reviews of the same product. Not smooth scrolling, rough feeling, inaccurate scroll. etc.I figured I'd take a chance, since some of the reviews seemed not to mention any of this. I got it, set it up and it's EXCELLENT! No more rough scroll, inaccurate scroll, or any issues at all....so far. I haver read of connection problems, even wired, but so far, no problems on a 2021 iMac, with Apple M1 silicon.I have read complaints on the Kensington Works software, especially from some Mac users. I got away from that entirely a while back, using the (paid version) of "Steermouse" . It takes a bit of a learning curve, but you can set nearly anything you want, and it just WORKS.I hope this review helps any other long time Expert Trackball users, although I may have just gotten lucky??! This device does have a rocky track record of reliability and correct operation, so your mileage may vary. But I will say, once set up and working properly, it is a very nice pointing device, if you are into trackballs. I also have a CST L-trak, but keep coming back to the Kensington. It's that scroll wheel...when it works right!

    5.0 out of 5 stars This trackball still reigns supreme.

    I have written a complete review of this device in its Wireless Version which is no longer manufactured. Its overall design has been well described in these numerous reviews. I would like to address a few of the complaints registered in some of the reviews on this thread, at least IMHO:1) The bearings on which the ball rests are different, and overall, there is no significant change in build quality which is more than adequate.2) Initially I also had some difficulty on Win7/64 with Trackball Works 1.04 and 1.01, the European version which tech support recommends when you call in to complain about the former. In my case, this represented some sort of software conflict which was no longer the case when I gave it another try after having had to reformat and reinstall my system for other reasons. Initially, although I could program the trackball without difficulty, it would intermittently hang, or my computer would crash. Since the reinstall, now for about 3 months use, Version 1.04 works absolutely fine with this Expert Mouse, but install the software before connecting the device, as mentioned. Absolutely NONE of the initial problems have recurred. Trackball Works has some problems with complete programming of the Slimblade Trackball version and Kensington is working on it, with a supposed upgrade to the software due in March, at least at the time of this writing.3) The ergonomic issues raised by some of the reviewers are legitimate, but it depends a great deal on the individual user. I agree that the "wrist rest" supplied is not a very successful solution. Some will prefer the flatter format of the Slimblade, but I don't think the four buttons work as smoothly as those on the Expert, and are very dependent on where you place your fingers on them, which is not the case with the latter which are nicely designed. At work, I use this trackball for hours on end, now for years, in our radiology department, scrolling through images, and have had absolutely no wrist or finger pain. One of the tricks is to operate the mouse with your hand canted to the right at about a 30 degree angle which helps to obviate more extreme wrist extension. Give your hand and wrist a brief rest by changing position every few minutes which can easily be done automatically during the workflow since you aren't gripping something. Any pointing device without rest will be a nuisance. For those who are particularly sensitive, place a small bean bag place under the palm of the hand, not the wrist. Since you aren't spatially moving the unit, it is not intrusive, if you buy a proper sized bag.4) Complaints about the scroll ring, IMHO, are entirely unjustified. It works very well. I have had no problems with its function on this unit, my previous wireless mouse, or any in our Department at work.5) Complaints about the ball's being sticky and insensitive are also groundless, IMHO. You will find slight "newness", reflected in slight stiffness,when you first use the unit. This will clear promptly, and even more quickly if you just spin the ball for a couple of minutes with moderate downward pressure to break in the interface between the support pins and the ball. Periodically clean the ball with a little soap and water, then alcohol to restore a smooth surface, and repeat the conditioning routine, in an abbreviated form. At the same time, inspect the pins on which the ball rests for accummulated dust and debris, and make sure they're absolutely clean. Works like a charm.For those that don't like the scroll wheel, try the Slimblade where scrolling is done via the ball itself, turned transversely. That works well....it's just a matter of personal preference. I personally prefer the larger ball on the Expert versus the Slimblade, and the independent scroll wheel. The interface cable on the Slimblade is a little more robust and less prone to kinking if you move the trackball around quite a bit, for example, if you're also using a graphics tablet on which you seat the trackball. In any case, I don't think it's an issue, particularly if you take a bit a care of how you set the mouse down so that it isn't repetitively stressed with a kink. BTW, I couldn't find the magnet that one reviewer talked about at the bottom of the receiver for the ball. All that's there is the optical pickup. BTW, if you use the Intuous 4 Wacom tablet, the RF mouse they supply is greatly improved over previously, and is nicely programmable, except for no control over acceleration which some users may find a distinct negative.Bottom line: HIGHLY recommended after years of experience using this trackball. Works perfectly well with Win 7/64.

    Great product!

    I just got this trackball, first time using a trackball ever, i was delighted by how well this one works. the included wrist rest is really helpful especially for my hnda when on a hard surface, the ball rolls smoothly and with precision, the only slight thing is the scroll ring has a slight wobble to it, but it is not that bad, i am just very particular. but i do really like the scroll ring, i am able to operate the left click with my thumb and right click with my little finger. very easy to use and the optional kensingtonworks software is great, its not needed to use the trackball, but you can set so many options for the 2 programable buttons, the top 2 buttons are great, but you have to be very very precise about clicking both at once when using shortcuts, overall this was an amazing purchase, and i am impressed by the quality of kensington products

    Maravilhoso!

    Amor ao primeiro toque. Aliviou bastante as dores nos meu pulso.

    Se conectó de forma fácil y rápida a mi computadora por bluetooth, no tuve necesidad de usar el usb que incluye, es totalmente funcional y preciso, cómodo, de muy buen tamaño (grande) y no extraño mi antiguo mouse ergonómico y mas caro que este, incluye baterías, se apaga cuando no se usa por tiempo prolongado, se prende al dar click y se conecta de inmediato.Yo ya estaba muy contento cuando voy y bajo la aplicación en la pagina oficial, compatible con mi sistema operativo High Sierra (es antiguo) y configuré todos y cada uno de los botones.Ahora tengo un trackball totalmente personalizado incluso para cada aplicación pro que uso, encima se ve genial!

    ergonomique et personnalisable

    parfait pour avoir un track maniable. 4 boutons personnalisables en bluetooth. large boule pour aisance de déplacement. Le repose poignet est pratique mais perfectible.

    Ottimo prodotto per chi lavora parecchie ore sul pc.

    Avevo già avuto esperienze in passato con le trackball e ultimamente si è ripresentata l'esigenza. Ho trovato questo prodotto di Kensington e dopo averlo acquistato posso dire che sia stata un'ottima scelta. Il prodotto è solido e ben costruito, si collega al pc attraverso la sua chiavetta wireless inclusa oppure in bluetooth. L'ergonomia e la manovrabilità sono ottime, anche la precisione del controllo è all'altezza delle aspettative.Unico piccolo punto negativo è il design dei tasti che termina a spigolo vivo e a volte, scorrendoci sopra con le dita si tende leggermente a toccarle.
