The Lift Vertical Mouse from Logitech is styled after the larger MX Vertical Advance Ergonomic Mouse. The Lift, designed specifically for small to medium-sized hands, offers the same fixed 57° to reduce the risks associated with pronation of the forearm. The angled body is designed to provide some support necessary for the hand to "relax" while engaged with the mouse.
The Lift Vertical Mouse is equipped with a top quality sensor capable of reading from 400 - 4000 DPI. With a nominal setting of 1000 DPI, the Lift can be adjusted anywhere within the range in 100 DPI increments. The DPI button, just behind the scroll wheel, offers easy access to dpi adjustment for basic or fine control movements. The scroll wheel has a rubber tire for grip and features distinct but soft detents, with the operation almost silent. There are 5 programmable buttons (left, right, back, forward, & middle click).
The buttons on the Lift feature a light curvature to facilitate a more natural curl to the fingers and to provide more control. The left and right buttons require low effort to activate and are almost silent, with the tactile response being a better indicator of switch activation than the sound. However, the hard plastic of the buttons could lead to pinching the mouse between the thumb and fingers in an attempt to achieve a better sensation of control.
The Lift Vertical Mouse offers 2 wireless connection options: 2.4Ghz Logi Bolt Receiver with an operation distance up to 33 feet, and Bluetooth (Bluetooth Low Energy Technology required). It is powered by a single AA battery that the manufacture claims can provide up to 24 months of use (of course, individual usage may affect this). Using Logitech "FLOW" it is possible to connect with and control up to 3 computing devices using a single mouse. |
