Logitech Revealed the Lift Vertical Ergonomic Mouse
Peter Donnell / 3 years ago
I’ve used a few vertical mice over the years, and they’re a strange beast. They take a fair bit of time to get used to, at least in my experience. However, for improving comfort, they can be a pretty potent tool to save you from wrist pain, or even more importantly, prevent it from occurring in the first place.
Logitech unveiled the Lift Vertical Ergonomic Mouse earlier today, a wireless mouse designed for day-long comfort at your desk. For nimble eSports champions, it is not, or at least, not while in competition. However, those suffering from wrist and hand issues could certainly find this more comfortable in between matches.
The naturally contoured design is a great fit for small- to medium-sized hands and comes in three beautiful colourways: rose, off-white and graphite. The graphite colour is also available in a left-handed version in North America and Europe.
What Logitech Had to Say
“Ergonomics and comfort play a vital role in overall workspace wellbeing,” said Olessia Hageman, head of the ergo business unit at Logitech. “Building on our philosophy of when we feel better, we do better, we have created Lift to help people work in comfort for hours and feel better at the end of a long day at the desk.”
Logitech Ergo Series
These new Lift mice are just the latest addition to the Ergo Series. Logitech takes its ergonomics pretty seriously, and I’m sure we’ll see this range expanded even further soon enough. “Lift Vertical Ergonomic Mouse was carefully crafted with several rounds of user testing involving Logitech’s Ergo Lab – and with a stamp of approval from leading ergonomic institutions.” according to Logitech.
About the Lift
The lift’s soft rubber grip and cosy thumb rest keep smaller hands comfy for hours at a time. Its 57-degree vertical design gives right and left-handed users a relaxing grip and takes the pressure off the wrist while promoting a more natural forearm posture throughout the day. The silent magnetic SmartWheel offers both speed and precision for accurate line-by-line edits or quickly scrolling through long documents. Wirelessly connect Lift in an instant to Windows, macOS, Linux, Chrome OS, iPadOS and Android operating systems via Bluetooth Low Energy or the secure Logi Bolt USB Receiver. With Logitech Flow, maintain all-day focus and effortlessly manage workflow across up to 3 multi-OS devices.
Sustainable Design
Lift’s sustainable design makes it a choice you can feel good about. At Logitech, products are designed to deliver great user experiences and minimize environmental footprint, which is why a portion of Lift’s plastic parts are made from post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic – 70% for graphite and 54% for rose and off-white. Logitech’s PCR program reinforces the brand’s commitment to designing for sustainability and ensures that plastics in end-of-life consumer electronics are given a second life. Current initiatives for scaling this commitment mean that approximately 65% of the mice and keyboards in Logitech’s largest portfolio include some level of PCR plastic and that new product introductions will use PCR plastic, wherever possible. All Logitech products, including Lift, are certified carbon neutral. When you purchase a Logitech product, the carbon footprint of that product has been reduced to zero by supporting forestry, renewables and climate-impacted communities that reduce carbon.
Pricing and Availability
Lift Vertical Ergonomic Mouse will be available in April 2022 on Logitech.com and at other global retailers. The suggested retail price for Lift Vertical Ergonomic Mouse is $69.99. Lift for Business will also be available for purchase globally.
