The MX Ergo S is the trackball to buy if the ERGO M575 is too basic. Its hinge tilts the body between 0 and 20 degrees, and Logitech says the 20-degree setting reduces forearm muscle strain by 27% and that ergonomists certified the design. Like the M575 it stays still while the thumb moves the ball, so the arm does not travel. It has 6 customizable buttons and a precision-mode button next to the ball that lowers DPI for detailed work. The S version adds quiet clicks, USB-C quick charging and the Logi Bolt receiver; a full charge lasts up to 120 days, and one minute of charging gives 24 hours. It also connects over Bluetooth and supports Logitech Flow for copying between computers. Logitech says it fits medium to large hands and is made only in a right-handed version, and the USB-C cable is not included. At $119.99 it costs much more than the M575, so try a trackball first if you are unsure.
