I use one for 8+ hours a day. I keep reading about the design being uncomfortable, but definitely hasn't been the case for me.
I guess if I actually kept my hand directly in line with the mouse it'd be pretty painful. I just about always keep my hand in a slant, more similar to how you'd use a trackpad, or as if you were holding a sort of slanted mouse.
I've stuck with it because of the well implemented 2d scrolling. Using a physical scrolling wheel feels off at this point.
Yup, for years. It feels exactly the same as a MacBook track pad and lets you use all the same gestures. I like it better than a mouse for my work machine.
I guess it's what you're used to and how large your hands are. For me, I've use it since it came out and prefer it to any other mouse, once you get used to the touch top surface using mechanical button/wheel seems archaic. It's also a lot easier to keep clean without a scroll wheel.
That said, the change to the rechargeable version was a huge unforced error apart from the deserved mocking for the charge port location because the mouse also reports low batt condition about 10 minutes before it actually dies, I don't know what the thinking there was.
Been using it for 10 years. It's my favorite mouse to use. Scrolling and tap gesture is the main reason I prefer it. I also like touching glass/aluminum over plastic.
I have one and I don't much care for it. But one thing it does better than other mice is scrolling left and right. It scrolls left and right as easily as it scrolls up and down. I edit audio files and work in DAWs a lot and it's really great for that. If I'm not performing those tasks, I generally don't use it.
My work bought one for me so I gave a try. Maybe they updated the sensor but the one I got a few years ago was a bad optical mouse compared to what I’m used to (Logitech MX and Razer).
