Table of Contents • • • • • • • • • • • • First impressions My first thought when I received the package from Amazon was whether I was being had. The box was so light that I was certain that the box couldn´t possibly contain a quality computer mouse. However, I was relieved to find the incredibly sleek looking vertical Sharkk mouse. I wasn´t sure what to expect from a 20 dollar mouse because ergonomical computer peripherals usually come at a high price. But so far I am truly impressed with the quality of this vertical mouse. What´s in the box • The Sharkk mouse • Wi-Fi dongle • batteries • small user manual Features • WiFi • Optical sensor (Laser technology) • 6 buttons including the mouse wheel. • DPI switch (800/1200/1600) • Low battery indicator • Auto sleep battery saving feature • On/off button • Dongle storage in the mouse itself Working with the Sharkk mouse The grip and angle of the mouse feel natural and is extremely comfortable to work with. ![]() The point of a vertical mouse is to eliminate the twisting of your lower arm that you get with a traditional mouse. Underarm twisting increases the risk of repetitive stress injury (RSI) or carpal tunnel syndrome. This mouse does a great job of eliminating that problem. Keeping in mind that any kind of repetitive task can cause RSI and other health problems, a vertical mouse is one way of reducing this risk. Angle Actually, the term vertical mouse does not quite fit the Sharkk mouse. It is, in fact, tilted more towards a 60 degree angle. This actually feels much more natural than certain other products where your hand is forced into an almost 90 degree angle which, to me, feels almost as strenuous as a standard flat mouse. The 60 degree design of this mouse is more or less perfect. The position of your lower arm and hand feels perfectly natural and relaxed without the slightest sensation of lower arm twisting. Weight The mouse is light and the weight feels good, but only just. Without the batteries it feels borderline too light, so I am curious about the feel of the cabled Sharkk mouse. The mouse is easy to move around and it slides smoothly on my trusty hard surface Razer mouse pad. Height The height of the mouse takes a little getting used to. I am used to a standard mouse and the first couple of days I kept hitting the Sharkk mouse when I moved my hand from the keyboard to the mouse, sending it spinning across my desk. Buttons The offers 6 buttons (Wheel click included). The button layout is simple and intuitive. Left/right mouse click The left/right click buttons work well and the contacts feel like high quality.

The clicks are a bit loud but you quickly get used to that. When you grab the mouse your fingers land where they are supposed to and you never need to search for the buttons. The left and right click buttons feel and sound slightly different. The left button is a fraction harder to click than the right one. The left buttons is also louder than the right one. Combined with the relatively low weight of the mouse, clicking the left button does occasionally move the mouse slightly sideways. But unless you frequently need to double-click small targets this is not an issue. Wheel The mouse wheel is made of perforated rubber and offers perfect friction and effortless page scrolling.
