Hansker Performance Gaming Vertical Mouse

few weeks of usage review!

Finally, a vertical mouse that doesn’t compromise on sensor performance

The only vertical mouse that combines truly ergonomic design with a fast sensor. As an IT professional who switched from gaming mice, I tried the Evoluent D Large, Razer Pro Click V2 Vertical, MX Vertical, Contour Unimouse, and Logitech Lift — they all compromise on either comfort, sensor, or both. The Hansker is comfortable, and the PixArt 3395 sensor matches gaming mice like the Basilisk V3 Pro. The standard button layout just works, battery life has been solid, and shipping was fast. If you refuse to compromise on sensor performance in a vertical mouse, this is it.

Better in (almost) every way

Been using a Logitech Lift for about 2 years now, but it's not really meant for gaming. This was pretty much the only upright mouse I could find that actually has a good sensor in it. It might be a little more expensive than other options, but I think it makes up for it with its performance. I can actually play games competitively again with this. The size is on the big side, even for a taller person like me, so if you have small hands, it might be a little rough to use, and the side buttons being vertically placed rather than horizontally next to each other threw me off a lot for a bit, but it's pretty natural already now. Only real complaint I would have is, depending on how you grip it, the back of the mouse can dig in to your hand between your thumb and index finger, so you might want some padding you can put on, but my hand started relaxing after more use and doesn't even rub against there anymore. Not sure why I saw so many reviews saying that the plastic felt cheap or "like it would break very easily," considering the person delivering this literally threw it on to my doorstep, I would say it's pretty solid. If you want an upright mouse for gaming, this really feels like the only true choice right now
