Is it for you

Buy it if

  • Large hands that overhang smaller vertical mice
  • You want to keep using it while it charges
  • Forearm rotation is the specific thing that hurts

Skip it if

  • Small hands — the Lift exists for a reason
  • You need a left-handed shape

Rotating the forearm to a near-handshake position is the entire idea, and it works: owners consistently report the strain moving out of the wrist within a couple of weeks. The size is what distinguishes it from the Lift.

It is an older design and it shows in the details — no free-spin wheel, a scroll wheel that feels vague, and a price that has not fallen as far as its age suggests it should.
