You may have a harder time matching this with your setup for that reason, unless you see it more as an accent piece. It is not an over-pronounced design, discerning itself from the rest of your peripherals while not necessarily drawing too much attention to itself. Unlike some other ergonomic mice, the M570 won’t cause your hand to cramp up. The curves are softer and not too extreme, allowing it to feel comfortable for smaller and larger hands alike. Everything has a purpose, from the ridges that support your fingers to the dorsal fin that houses the trackball. It is neither over-designed nor over-thought. It can be described with minimal curves, but is thoughtfully sculpted and shaped around the curvature of your hand. When it comes to design, the silhouette is actually quite sophisticated. The mouse itself is finished in a matte gunmetal grey, and the trackball is a deep blue that plays off of the cool-grey contours. The M570 isn’t really going to win any style awards, but this mouse is less about flash, and more about form following function. Make sure to remove the ball and clean the bearings regularly if you notice the movement becoming less smooth.Ī lot of the gunk will be from dust in the air, debris that may find its way through the cracks, and oils on your hands that find its way onto the ball.Ī clean, smooth ball is a happy ball, after all. Since the the trackball physically glides over these bearings, they can accumulate a lot of grime or crust that you may have to clean off with a q-tip. The bearings can always be modded or swapped out later on (at cost of your warranty, of course). They aren’t the smoothest, but are reliable and long-lasting. Under the trackball are the sensor and three plastic bearings that allow the trackball to glide and rotate. On the bottom of the trackball are a power switch, battery compartment, USB receiver slot, 3 anti slip pads, and a hole that you can use to pop the trackball out for cleaning. On the top of the trackball are your standard two buttons with scroll wheel, two function buttons that are used for web browser navigation by default, and a small battery life indicator that will shine green when turned on, and red when your battery is running low. It accounts for roughly one-fifth of the overall weight, weighing in at 26 grams or just under one ounce. The trackball itself is also plastic and only about 1.25″ in diameter, but feels fairly appropriately weighted. This makes it solid enough to not move around the desk or desk mat while using it, but still light enough to be somewhat portable.Ĭoming in a full plastic build, the mouse doesn’t creak or flex during use and doesn’t feel cheap. The design is sturdy but not overly heavy, weighing in at 114 grams without batteries, and 138 grams with a single AA alkaline battery. I have been using my personal M570 for over 6 years, with no issues whatsoever. The build quality, while nothing too impressive, is very sturdy and well-assembled. Logitech also provides a limited 3-year warranty.
