“We know that many computer users experience discomfort or pain in their
hand, forearm and in their wrists,” said Delphine Donne-Crock, general
manager of creativity and productivity at Logitech. “To address this,
we’ve created our most advanced ergonomic mouse yet, MX VERTICAL,
designed with an innovative natural handshake position. The unique angle
is optimized for an ergonomic posture and reduces both wrist pressure
and forearm strain. With MX VERTICAL, you can maximize your productivity
in comfort.”
Scientifically tested and ergonomist approved, MX VERTICAL is designed
with a natural handshake position and a 57-degree vertical angle to
reduce muscular activity by up to 10 percent compared to a standard
mouse without any loss in overall performance. The comfort form is
designed to fit a variety of hand shapes and sizes, while the textured
rubber surface and thumb rest ensure a solid and natural grip.
MX VERTICAL provides a best-in-class 4,000 DPI high-precision sensor,
resulting in up to 4x less hand movement and reducing fatigue. The
cursor speed switch allows you to instantly adjust DPI speed and
accuracy of your cursor with the touch of a button. With MX VERTICAL,
you never have to worry about your mouse running out of power as the
rechargeable battery lasts up to four months on a full charge, and a
quick one-minute charge gets you three hours of use. Enabled with both
Logitech Easy-SwitchTM and Logitech FlowTM you can
seamlessly switch between two computers with MX VERTICAL, and even copy
and paste content, images and documents between them.
MX VERTICAL features a modern design, complementing Logitech’s other
premium products, such as Logitech
CRAFT, Logitech
Spotlight Presentation Remote or Logitech
MX SOUND.

MX VERTICAL is priced at $99.99 and expected to be available at select
