ProtoArc EM11 NL Wireless Ergonomic Vertical Mouse, Rechargeable, Black

Very pleased with this mouse. I bought it because I have recently been suffering with tennis elbow and it was suggested that using one of these might reduce the pressure on the tendon which causes the pain and the joint itself. It took a bit of getting used to, coming from a normal mouse, but I soon got used to it and find it extremely comfortable to use- your hand/arm is in a more natural and relaxed position, putting less stress on the elbow, as it is no longer twisting so much. In terms of setting up, the tiny usb bluetooth dongle set itself up in Windows 11 straight away and connected to the mouse with no problem and I've had no issues with disconnects or connections from the bluetooth connection. The mouse feels solid and well made and is of a soft feel/matt texture, so very comfortable to use and feels as though it will be durable over time. It seems accurate, I've had no lag or skipping of the cursor during any normal use. I've not tried gaming with it yet. For me, it's been worth the money - I'd seen these before and wondered if they were a gimmick, but since I've been using it (combined with an erganomic keyboard from Arteck), I can now see that it isn't and it has reduced the pressure on my elbow/tendon which has in turn reduced the pain. It might not be for everyone, but it's a thumbs up from me.

I am rarely moved to review an item, but this mouse is such an improvement on my previous (Microsoft) wireless mouse that I just had to write one. The first nice surprise was that the mouse is rechargeable via a little USB-C port underneath the grip. Having been used to supplying endless batteries for my previous mouse I was really pleased about this. It was really easy to connect the mouse to Windows (using my previous mouse!) via the Bluetooth options in Windows 11, and once connected, it stays connected reliably. This is another bonus as I don't have to use a USB port for the optional included USB receiver, which is slotted into the base of the mouse. I can keep this option handy in case I need to use the mouse elsewhere or on a device without Bluetooth. The mouse itself is incredibly easy to use and comfortable to hold. The curve is perfectly matched to the open grip of my hand, and the buttons are perfectly placed for clicks. The surface material is very smooth yet slightly rubberised so you don't lose contact while using it. Talking of clicks, the mouse buttons are responsive and the clicks are precise yet also soft, so there is less noise than my previous mouse. The mouse is very smooth to move across my desk, and due to this it feels almost weightless, like an extension to my arm. The scroll wheel is responsive, with subtle 'stops' as you turn it, but provides smooth movement through documents or for zooming. The DPI setting, which I haven't adjsted yet as I haven't felt the need, makes the pointer move fluently on the screen, and for this reason I feel I am working more efficiently and smoothly than I was before with my old mouse. Overall I would say this item is exceptional value for money, really well-designed, and I would recommend it highly for anyone needing a new mouse for either productivity or gaming.

Good: -- Much higher quality than its price would suggest. -- Very light, even with a built-in battery. -- Seamless Bluetooth connection. Bad: -- The wheel cannot spin freely! If you are used to the Logitech way of giving the wheel a spin to get back to the top or bottom of a page, then this click-click-click only wheel will irritate you. -- For smaller hands. I actually get some wrist cramp from using this because my fingers are a bit squished together on the buttons and wheel.

Today I got the ProtoArc EM11 (I PURCHASED, didn't get this item free) and honestly.. SO comfortable. Seen a few reviews complaining and this made me worry.. however, after trying this mouse I can't agree with a single bad complaint so far. Perfect mouse size, great value for money, works on my mac well (size buttons work) and the mouse DOESN"T move away from you when you go to grab it lol, saw one review showing that but they were just throwing their hand at the mouse. Honestly so far... amazing value for money. My issue with ergonomic mice is that then moving over to the keyboard I know them over lol, but with the shape of this one I haven't had that issue at all. The mouse is silent clicks (deep sounding) clicky side buttons but that is to be expected on any mouse. Super comfortable hand fit in the ergonomic position. I see that this company actually sell a hand rest too? I can see how that would make this feel EVEN better! So would be very interested in that. Overall, really good mouse and would recommend you buy.

This is my first ergonomic mouse, I've still use a gaming mice for gaming (op1 8k), but having this for work has been awesome. Its easy to use and feels very comfortable for my wrists, might be placebo but with this on I feel like after work I play video games better which is a nice bonus. The mouse has 2 Bluetooth profiles so its easy to switch between your home pc and a laptop so its nice that I can switch between the two easily. One thing to note is that when you leave the usb inside the mouse it can make a rattling sounds, but it doesnt bother me much, as I dont intend to move it particularly fast like a maraca anyway. Conclusion: I would recommend it if you want to test the waters with ergo mice, its cheap, works great and you might find it more comfortable. Just give it 3-4 days of testing before you make a verdict, feels very strange holding things vertically.

Huge thanks to the Switch and Click YouTube channel for pointing this one out. The ProtoArc EM11 NL arrived in surprisingly premium packaging, and the build quality is outstanding. It is exceptionally comfortable to hold, offers plenty of configurable buttons, and features quiet, dampened clicks that make standard mice feel obsolete. I used it for just a day before ordering a second one for my partner because the design is simply that good. Finding this level of design and ergonomic relief at this price point is rare.

Excellent mouse except for one weakness - the scroll wheel stops working properly after a while (as quite a lot of other reviewers have commented). Mine will scroll up, but only scrolls down intermittently. The fault developed after less than 12 months of use. If it wasn't for this critical issue I would give it 5 stars - it's comfortable to use, the buttons work well, the matt finish on the plastic provides a good non-slip grip and looks nice, and the shape and size are perfect for my particular hands. If only ProtoArc would fix the unreliable scroll wheel mechanism...

I bought the ProtoArc EM11 NL on a whim looking for a solid ergonomic option, and I am absolutely blown away by the value here. "Amazing" doesn't even cut it. My daily driver is a high-end Logitech MX mouse, so my standards for ergonomics, build quality, and comfort are pretty high. I fully expected this to feel like a "budget backup," but it feels incredible in the hand. The contouring is spot-on, the grip is comfortable for long working hours, and the tracking is incredibly smooth. If you are on the fence because of the price point, don't be. To get this level of premium feel and comfort at a fraction of the cost of a mainstream flagship mouse is a total steal. Highly recommended!

Mouse ergonomico, buona impugnatura e maneggevolezza.

Excelente producto. Muy muy cómodo, diseño muy lindo, botón de clock súper suave. La conectividad excelente y la batería dura muchísimo. Una de las mejores compras que he hecho. Recomendado

I was intrigued with the intuitive design of this mouse and wanted to try it out. If I could do a one-word review for this product, it is ‘BRAVO’. At first, only for a minute or two, it seemed just a little awkward but in no time, it feels very natural, and I found myself using it like I always used this mouse before. It just feels so natural in my hand. I don’t have to turn my wrist at all. I have larger hands, and this feels like a perfect fit. My index and middle fingers fit exactly over the mouse buttons and feel just natural. The mouse shape is curved in all the right places. It has a natural concave place for your thumb, a place for your index and middle fingers to control the buttons and scroll, and there is enough room for your last two fingers to rest against the side of the mouse. The side of my hand just rests naturally on the desktop for a comfortable feel. I first tried using the USB receiver and it works without a glitch. The receiver has the ‘ProtoArc’ label printed on the end. Under the mouse, you just click on the mode button to toggle through the available connection options. You can use this mouse for 3 connections, one with the USB receiver, and two Bluetooth connections. I share three monitors through a docking station with my Windows PC and my Mac Mini. I paired the first Bluetooth connection with my Windows PC and the second Bluetooth setting with my Mac. You just hold the mode button to put the mouse in pairing mode. I connected within seconds without any issues. The design, shape, and comfort of this mouse is exceptional but there are equal highlights for the operation of the mouse. The buttons and scroll are ultra-quiet and responsive. When scrolling, you can gently feel individual adjustments but no sound whatsoever. I personally am super impressed with the operation of the mouse. It is not just for looks. It is the best mouse I’ve used to date without exception. The mouse includes the USB-A to USB-C charging cable. It also goes to sleep if it detects no activity after 30 minutes to conserve battery power. You do have the option to shut off the mouse with the on/off button at the bottom of the mouse. This is another great feature to conserve battery power. Conclusion: The best mouse I’ve used. It is an intuitive design. It feels very comfortable and natural in the hand. The mouse is elegant looking, attractive, and the buttons and scroll are ultra quiet. A+++ product.

Bardzo polecam produkt - nie mam już dolegliwości i bolącego nadgarstka. Ponadto od dnia zakupu produkt nie wymagał ładowania więc co najmniej pół roku na baterii przy codziennym użytkowaniu.

Ik schrijf niet vaak reviews, maar dit is een hele fijne muis. Makkelijk te koppelen met verschillende laptops, geleverd in een mooi doosje met duidelijke productinformatie. Ligt fijn in de hand.
