NO SCROLL WHEEL

 

If you install the software from Kensington you get a workaround - clicking both buttons. Still just unacceptable.

Honestly as trackballs go it's fine, but no scroll wheel? Really?

-Just wanted to make sure you realized that there's no scroll wheel

Dead Mouse

 

Now useless as the 'supplied driver' does not work on W10, even a web search gives NO working drivers. So much for W10 latest tech, I knew I should have stayed with XP.

Has been a really good item, until now

Can anyone help with a 'WORKING DRIVER' for a kensington MO1082/K64327 Orbit trackball, I have already tried...http://accoblobstorageus.blob.core.windows.net/software/4b45aa0c-bd1f-4100-9fa6-b4def5716eb8.exe, USELESS. thelicencee@googlemail.com

good trackball, NO SCROLL

 

I would buy this again, despite the lack of scroll function. You get used to using the bar on the side of the window, and I think the efficiency of the trackball makes up for this inefficiency in other areas for my personal use.

Good little trackball. Works well and is efficient for large screens or limited space. Inexpensive. Easy to install. Seemingly well built

As others have mentioned, the ball sometimes sticks but it is a minor issue. The ball can fall out if the device is tilted. My biggest issue is that there is no scroll. That would have been a deal breaker but I thought that was a basic feature of any...

Good value for a trackball

 

I wish I could still get the expert mouse with the large ball that rode on ball-bearings. But then that would last so long they wouldn't have repeat customers!

Nice wide footprint, stable on desk. Good sized ball, and comfortable palm rest. Great price too.

Bearings (small plastic balls in plastic socket) could be better, these require occasional clearing with a micro-fibre rag or similar to get the ball back to rolling smoothly. Context menu brought up with click of right mouse button could have more...

Great Mouse!!

 

This is a simple and well designed mouse that any trackball user will love.

Works well. Smooth rolling of the ball and accurate tracking

No scroll wheel or middle button, but that is stated in the description and obvious in the picture ; The only con really worth commenting on is that the Marble(Trackball) will fall out if the mouse tilted sideways of up-side-down. This isn't a problem...
