Classic layout of the old MTE (Microsoft Trackball Explorer) from 2001, and thanks to the exclusive patent ending in 2021, the Sanwa Gravi was the next best choice. Before that, all we had was the Ploopy trackball to hold us over. Good to see other third parties iterating on the MTE ergonomic design!
I'd really be stoked if there were one with the same layout as the Trackman FX but with a tilt scroll wheel (and with a solid build well put together mind you)
I have the thumb one and besides weekly lubrating and cleaning, its great. I love how it slants to one side to make it easier for my old af wrists to rest.
I recently bought this mouse, and it's really great. I like the colorful lights, the buttons, the scroll wheel, and how comfortable it feels in my hand. I highly suggest it. I work in sales and marketing, and it's very easy to switch between screens with this mouse. I hope this information is helpful! This video does a great job walking you through the basics! Thanks!
How does the zoom in/out functionality work in this? The reason I am asking is because the Mac Trackpad is super easy to zoom in/out, so I am curious which one I should buy...
as i mentioned above, BT Polling with 125Hz while 2.5GHz Polling has 250Hz. Best Regards, even the DPI could easily be switched between 200, 400, 800, 1200 or 1600 DPI.
using it under Linux Mint and it is recognised flawlessly, for your usecase i suggest to use the scrollwheel in combination with Right-Click, then copy and cut text.
@@lesliegrace8360 after 20 years of standard mouse usage, started with a thumb trackball from our IT. After one day i found out to tend to use index finger to navigate. Then ordered EM03. First hour of use was somehow unfamiliar. Today on third day of heavy use, it would never ever change back to anything else. All time best buy !
Relax, slow down. You're right, it is a great finger trackball mouse..It seems as though their thumb operation is more popular. I have used both, but my first was the Logitech Explorer, which was similar to this one..I bought this because of your review..ProArc owes you a commission. I had to watch your video twice because you were talking too fast, and I missed how to adjust the DPI. I got it on the highest I believe.
i hope they let him live after the review

Nice 2008 youtube feel, I like it.
This is a company channel, but I don't think that necessarily means he's a paid actor. He could be doing a personal testimonial.

Almost perfect. I wish it had a second button at right side, like the Elecom Huge. I like to use the second right button like a middle button.
How does it convey/confirm which DPI setting one has chosen?
How does the zoom in/out functionality work in this? The reason I am asking is because the Mac Trackpad is super easy to zoom in/out, so I am curious which one I should buy...
depends on the software you are currently using, in most cases it will be a shortcut with Scrollwheel and Button (Left or Right) or similar
Thanks mate you helped me choose between this or the EM01
We'd like to question the original reviewer. Can you please link to them?
Paid actor. Company's address is a multi-storey parking lot
I have liked the idea of trackballs for as long as I can remember. I might buy one of these when my mouse quits working.
Can it be used as a wired mouse? Wired mice tend to have better connections.
nope, wire for charging only

Any plans to officially sell these EM03 in Europe?
And why not making them in matte white/satin silver like with the EM01?
Hi dear,EM03 is also avaiable on Amazon UK and DE.
your website takes ages to load its content, maybe someone should investigate. Also the "EM03" could not be found online.
How is the copy and paste function like if you wanted to select a large number of text, can this be done
using it under Linux Mint and it is recognised flawlessly, for your usecase i suggest to use the scrollwheel in combination with Right-Click, then copy and cut text.
@@deadlinerhorusI love it so much I bought 3 of them one for wife one for me and one for my work
polling frequency plz
BT has 125Hz while 2.5GHz has 250Hz. Best Regards
Do you still like the mouse? How long did it take you to get use to using it daily?
