This is the oneDec 19, 2009
By Alan van der Vyver
The Kensington Expert Mouse Optical USB Trackball for PC or Mac 64325 is probably the best track ball around, but it is very expensive, its ball moves like treacle until it is worn in (which is a slog for a few days) and some people find it too big for their hands.

The Logitech Trackman Marble Mouse mouse is a good, inexpensive, simple track ball, but it does not have any reasonable scrolling mechanism.

Most of the others out there also have some or other problem. For example, my Microsoft Trackball Explorer has a sticky track ball and the buttons under the thumb just don't seem quite right. The Logitech Trackman Wheel Optical (Silver) has very good button placement, a scroll wheel and the track ball under the thumb makes for very quick pointer movement, but it is difficult to position the pointer precisely with your thumb.

This one, on the other hand, has everything correct:

There are no drivers to fiddle with. Just plug it in.
The price is reasonable.
The size is suitable for large or small hands.
The ball is positioned under the fingers for precise positioning and it spins freely from the start.
There is a scroll ring and it spins smoothly and freely.
The buttons are a bit further from the ball than I expected, but one quickly adapts and their position means that the force is primarily downwards rather than sideways, which reduces the unit's tendency to move on a smooth surface.

Best Trackball For the MoneyJan 14, 2010
By K. O. Atli
This is THE best trackball for the money. I've owned various trackballs over the years (Logitech Cordless Trackman, Logitech Trackman FX, Logitech Marblemouse, the Original Kensington Orbit, and more) as I have been fighting the onset of Carpal Tunnel. The ball on this one is the best of the bunch except for the long discontinued Trackman Fx. In comparison to the original Orbit, the scroll wheel is a dream and a must have for any trackball made today. I wish it had more than 2 buttons, but if you download mouse gestures for your browsers, it's not a deal breaker, especially for the price. All in all, it is a reasonably priced trackball with a very comfortable design and a fantastic ball.

Pros:
Great Ergonomics (doesn't hurt my wrist one bit)
Almost Perfect Accuracy (I use Photoshop for a living so bad accuracy would have killed it for me)
Well Priced (Less than [...] Bucks when on sale)
Best Scroll mechanism of the bunch (Used Logitech's scroll wheel and the scroll ring on this blows it away)
Comes with wrist pad

Cons:
Only two buttons

Serviceable trackballFeb 22, 2010
By R. Madden "Russ"
I bought this to replace a Logitech Marble Mouse trackball. The Logitech device was interfering with tabs in Safari (Mac). (Note: the newest software update from Logitech fixes that problem.) The best thing about the Kensington trackball is that no extra software is required. Plug and use. I have really enjoyed the scroll ring, so even though I have updated the Logitech software, I'm still using this trackball. The downside: it's less ergonomic than the Marble Mouse. My wrist gets more tired/sore. The included wrist rest is, for me, practically useless. Better if Kensington had simply lengthened and narrowed the trackball more in the first place. But, as I said, I have not gone back to the Marble Mouse because of the scroll ring. If I were to be on the computer for a long period of time, however, I think I would switch -- for that task -- to the Marble Mouse...then return to this.

Excellent trackball from KensingtonNov 17, 2009
By Fred Ginsburg "film/video production professor and consultant"
The new Kensington trackball mouse is a welcome improvement to their product line. The trackball itself was smooth and glitch-free. There was no product set-up on any of my computers; just plug it in to the USB port and it was up and running. And that was for Windows 2000 as well as Windows XP Pro.

The feature that we found most exciting and extremely useful was the new scroll wheel. Being horizontal made it easy to access with fingers on either side of the trackball. It worked flawlessly with Word as well as all of my other programs."

Fantastic! Scroll Ring is better than a regular Scroll WheelDec 21, 2009
By DanC
With the KENSIGNTON K72337US ORBIT TRACKBALL WITH SCROLL RING for PC or Mac, there's no software to install - you plug into your USB and you're ready to go, just like a regular mouse. Then, the SCROLL RING is FANTASTIC! - it's even better than the scroll wheel on a regular mouse. It gives you better control and a greater scrolling range than the scroll wheel on a regular mouse.

I had first tried the Logitech optical trackball mouse. The Kensington is far superior. The Logitech has no scrolling ability without installing the software; and even then, the Logitech will not scroll for many websites and applications. I returned the Logitech and am happily using the Kensington for over 2 months now.
