Over the last few years I’ve gone through a couple Logitech MX Verticals. My current one does technically work, but just like the last one the cheap rubber coating has started disintegrating and is pretty nasty at this point.
Anyone have good recs for a vertical mouse that won’t start crumbling like a dry cake in my hand? I’m not picky on buttons or anything, just work with a bunch of spreadsheets at work. The vertical mouse is just much better for my wrist.
A fun DIY idea!
Yeah, that stickyness is called rubber reversion. Every device with that soft touch rubber coating will eventually do it. It comes off easily with alcohol. With a little effort you can clean it off and have a perfectly fine plastic mouse without the rubber texture or stickiness.
I have many old devices still in use that just stripped off the coating when it went bad.
