With its clean edges and metallic body, the Evoluent VerticalMouse C Right Wired looks like it belongs in a science fiction movie.

But its comfortable form factor and highly customizable buttons make a convincing case for ditching traditional computer mice forever. The latest in Evoluent’s VerticalMouse series, it features a streamlined shape and a pinch of chrome for a sleeker look and feel while maintaining a high level of performance and customizability. These might not seem like huge updates, but they’re enough for the C Right Wired to replace the Penclic Bluetooth Mouse B3 as our Editors’ Choice for ergonomic mice.

DESIGN AND FEATURES

The most obvious thing about the VerticalMouse C Right Wired is that it’s, well, vertical. The ergonomic advantage to this shape is that it mimics the natural grip you use to, say, shake someone’s hand rather than the strain-inducing forearm-twisting traditional mice require. If you’ve never used a vertical mouse, this might sound like hogwash, but after a few days of testing, I found it noticeably more comfortable than a horizontal mouse. And though the design of the C Right Wired is certainly different, the mouse is not as “out there” as others, including the Ergoption Oyster Mouse Wireless, the Hippus HandShoe Mouse (with LightClick), and the Penclic Bluetooth Mouse B3.

Viewed from the rear, the mouse’s shape is almond-like. The left side features an attractive chrome finish with a black plastic thumb groove in the middle that makes the C Right Wired solely for right-handed users. (Southpaws, Evoluent also makes the same-price VerticalMouse 4 Left.) At the mouse’s top edge are four small lights indicating pointer speed or dpi.
