The Logitech ERGO M575 is an ergonomic trackball mouse. It feels very well-built and has a comfortable right-handed design well-suited for nearly all hand sizes using a palm or claw grip, but those with small hands may not be able to reach the forward and back buttons on the top. It connects wirelessly either with its USB receiver or via Bluetooth and uses one AA battery. Unfortunately, you can only adjust the default CPI with the software's cursor speed slider, which doesn't label the actual CPI setting. Also, its click latency is only decent, and its polling rate is low and can't be changed. However, this shouldn't pose any problems for everyday tasks.
Our Verdict
The Logitech M575 is great for office use. It stays put on your desk, and you use the trackwheel with your thumb to move your cursor. It feels well-built and has an ergonomic shape ideal for a palm grip for nearly all hand sizes. It connects wirelessly with a USB receiver or Bluetooth, and it has several buttons you can program using the software compatible with Windows and macOS. Unfortunately, the wheel has no L/R tilt buttons and doesn't unlock for free scrolling.

The Logitech M575 is disappointing for FPS gaming and isn't for this use. It's very heavy, has a high click latency, and has a low polling rate you can't adjust. On the bright side, it feels very well-built and is well-suited for nearly everyone using a palm or claw grip, except those with small hands who may have trouble reaching both side buttons.

The Logitech M575 is inadequate for MMO gaming, but it isn't for this use. It doesn't have nearly as many buttons as dedicated MMO mice, has a low polling rate that you can't change, and only has decent click latency. That said, it feels well-built, and most people should be able to comfortably use a palm or claw grip, except for those with small hands.
