  • Only adjustable-angle pick in this lineup
  • Bluetooth 5.0 + 2.4GHz receiver
Watch-outs
  • Most expensive pick at $130

  • Steeper 70-degree vertical angle than the Logitech 57°
  • Right and left-handed versions available
  • Bluetooth + 2.4GHz dongle
Watch-outs
  • Wider thumb shelf takes adjustment from standard mice
