What we can tell you
An inexpensive wired vertical mouse: the cheap way to try the vertical posture without committing to a rechargeable one. It carries a retailer rating from a modest number of reviews, which most products here do not. The one thing not to trust is the button count: the retailer’s specification row says two, while the vendor’s own model name and every listing title say six, so no figure is recorded at all.
What the specifications favour
- An inexpensive way to try a vertical grip
- Carries a retailer rating, which most products here lack
- Cabled, so there is nothing to charge or pair
What to check before you buy
- Sources disagree badly on the button count, so none is recorded
- A low published sensitivity ceiling
