Our Verdict

Kensington SlimBlade Pro Trackball

ELECOM HUGE M-HT1DRBK

The Kensington SlimBlade Pro Trackball and the ELECOM HUGE M-HT1DRBK are wireless trackball mice designed for productivity. The Kensington has a minimal, ambidextrous design that allows for more flexibility in grip type. In contrast, the ELECOM has a right-handed design with more buttons and a dedicated scroll wheel. Both mice are on the large side and can be unwieldy for users with small hands.
