A $100 mouse you hold like THIS?? - Logitech MX Vertical Review

what an intro, want more of that

This intro was officially the best thing yet on LTT. The best!

Actually this mouse saved my wrist from serious pain. I am a graphics designer and I work on projects sometimes 10 hours a day. Plus guess what I'm doing on my free time... I USE THE COMPUTER!!! So yes, it really is a big deal.

0:55 Why is no one talking about the fact that he opened the glass on his face

i was waiting for that "enhance" so bad xDDD

I was much happier not knowing my arm bones did that

The instant I saw the screen: "Say it. Say it... SAY IT!!!!" Linus: "Enhance" YES!! HAHA

I'm a programmer and gamer, so I'm on the computer all day. I have both the MX Vertical and a G502 mouse on my desk and plugged in so that I can switch between them on a whim. I have to say the reduced wrist pain from using the MX Vertical makes the reduced number of features in comparison to the G502 definitely worth it (and I do use all the extra features of the G502 when I do use it, so it's not like they are useless to me). I actually use the MX Vertical even for gaming most of the time, which I hear most people say they can't do, so maybe I'm just weird haha. Honestly, the only time I feel the need to switch over to the G502 is when I'm playing a multiplayer FPS, which isn't often for me anyway. I actually didn't feel that steep learning curve that Linus mentioned. I was able to use it pretty quickly and effectively within a couple hours. I can imagine having the "fake click" problem James was having if I was using it on a smooth, hard surface, but I use it on a cloth mouse pad and don't have that problem so maybe that's the difference. I do share the gripe of not being able to reach the forward button easily, but I have that problem on all mice so yeah. Anyway, I love the mouse and I definitely think it was worth the $100.

Gotta love when Linus uses the IBM Model M attire.

This is one of the few videos, in which you see the RED camera used to its fullest potential. Very pleasing for my eyes, props to Brandon!

I started to get arm pain this year and switched to this mouse. It felt weird at first, but within a week it felt completely natural and now I can't go back to a regular mouse, even for gaming. The lack of features compared to the rest of the MX lineup is a pity, but it's still my favourite mouse I've ever tried.

Anyone else’s arms feel weird when Linus is talking about repetitive strain injuries. EDIT thanks for 1k likes :)

We need more of this intro

We need an LTT movie that’s a 45 minute commercial for every new piece of tech.

Is this the equivalent of holding your gun sideways? Gangsta gaming?

I really have to say that this is the first mouse that I have used in over 6 years. Ever since I switched to a laptop I was just fine with a trackpad. I used an arc mouse that I got with my Surface Laptop and liked the precision that I gained, but hated this weird mouse so I bought the vertical after testing it at Best Buy. I love it. I do not experience the same weird problems that James had and for me it feels like second nature. Since I am a pleb and used to trackpads I am not sorry that this mouse has less buttons. It is accurate, it is amazing to hold and I can work with it for hours upon hours.

From the moment I saw Linus standing with a suit at that angle, I was already waiting for him to utter the word "enhance".

i saved almost 100 bucks by just placing my desk on it's side! ;)

My work bought me one of these about 6 months ago, super weird initially but I'm now a massive fan! You get just as accurate as a "normal" mouse over time.

That Anker mouse you showed briefly at 7:50 is quite satisfactory. I have one. I didn't have a much trouble getting used to it and can ever use it for shooters.
