![]() ![]() BUT I have 2 monitors and you HAVE to ramp the mouse speed up VERY high. Currently I've stolen the Magic Mouse from the Mrs and for light use it's pretty good. However I started low and bought the Mini. I should also mention that I can't use a mouse anymore day in and day out, the movement of the entire arm is causing a pinched nerve in my back/rib which is the whole reason why I switched to a trackball in the first place. Does anyone use both a mouse and trackpad? While its pretty expensive for just basic use like that its already bought and paid for. Im curious though what does everyone else do? Also I suppose since I already own the trackpad I can just set it up next to the mouse and use it primarily for gestures. So I guess the solution is to use keyboard shortcuts for the gestures? the main Gestures I use are forward and back, app expose, mission control and left or right to switch between virtual desktops. The trackballs only offer four buttons or so, hardly enough to remap the gestures. Everything said I lose all the gestures from the trackpad. I just purchased a Kensington trackball which it supposed to more accurate and better for larger screens, though it uses the fingers instead of the thumb for the movement so I guess ill see how that works. Ive setup my old Logitech M570 trackball with the Mac and while everything works well im using a 4K monitor so moving around the screen real estate is bit challenging at times. ![]() At any rate I suspect the issue for me with the trackpad is constantly trying to hover my fingers when not in use over the trackpad, it causes excessive fatigue on the knuckle joints. Im noticing that when I practise my guitar my fingers are already fatigued before I even start, unless its my imagination but I suspect not. I also play flamenco guitar for an hour in the evening which is very taxing on the fingers due to the speed. It seems that hovering my other fingers aswell over the trackpad with far less use proves challenging. At first I loved it but now that I've been using it for a few weeks im finding that the 8+ hours a day of use it gets, im starting to get fatigue in my fingers and especialy my middle finger since its my primary pointing finger on the trackpad. The design is a toss-up it really depends on the individual, but both have very sleek and polished designs.Hey Guys, just got a Mac studio (Switched from windows) and the only input device I have is the Magic Trackpad. In terms of hardware, both track pads use a premium glass that is expected to give users a smooth tracking experience, yet is strong enough to be resistant to wear and tear. Both pair to your Mac via Bluetooth, and you can use them up to 9 metres away from your Mac. Other than that, both offerings promise smooth and seamless scrolling and tracking, multi-touch gestures on a large canvas. Logitech, however, touts a tilt angle that is more ergonomic. Depending on your preference, either one could be more comfortable for you. On paper, the battery is said to last up to a month, whereas Apple advertises its track pad to have a battery life of “months at a time”.Īnother difference, but perhaps a more subjective one, is that Logitech’s track pad is inclined at a lower angle than Apple’s. Whenever the battery runs out, just plug in the device to your computer and continue using it.Ī battery indicator on the Logitech track pad will turn red to indicate when it needs recharging, and green when it is being recharged. Unlike Apple’s track pad, which uses two AA-sized batteries, Logitech’s offering comes with a rechargeable battery so there’s less of a hassle. It is going on sale in Singapore for S$98 in mid-February. Mac users who like an alternative to Apple’s Magic Trackpad now have another option in Logitech’s Rechargeable TrackPad for Mac. ![]()
