No. No it doesn't
not in a million fucking quadrillion eons
*cough*

No.
requires a perfectly flat surface to roll around (mousepad requirement)
to clean it requires a full disassembly
chunkier and slower than an optical mouse
I remember when optical mice came out, it was like magic and you could use your pants as a "mousepad" if you wanted to
I was there, Gandalf.
I was there 3000 years ago.
In the computer lab at school, We would take those out and chuck them at each other. Fucking hurt.
You've clearly never used ball mice if you think they're better than optical mice
It's kinda weird that I know have to add extra lead weights to my mouse but the optical sensors are still far superior
The only good thing is that mice were larger back then.

Fuck no, it does not. I don't miss this.
Never washed my balls back then, still not washing themm.
there was...another
I really want a Boomslang for my retro setup.
I really fucking hated this thing.
wrist pain inducer device
No, this does. Still rocking mine 20 years later.
Yeah, those mice fucking rule. I've only used the versions that just have two buttons, though.
I was about to post this. Fucking intellimouse still unbeaten after all this years, decades even.
When I went to college they had just phased out all the ball mice with optical mice
Someone somewhere came to the conclusion that we would no longer need mouse pads
All the PC desks were highly reflective, the mice would randomly spaz out, so we used pieces of paper as mouse pads
Technology is dangerous
why are children into pain
And the tasteful spread of jam on the underside... Peak mouse, truly
why the fuck were those balls so heavy though
wireless
ergonomic
1ms wireless latency(2nd best)
0.8ms wired latency (3rd best)

As someone that used these in the 90s at school, genuinely utter dogshit to use. Optical was/is peak.
It's still wild to me how someone saw ball mice and thought "what if I made this awful technology a thousand times worse".
Mine also remains functioning well over 20 years later.

Might surprise you but a ball mouse is a optical mouse.
Nope.
99 things got worse in gaming but mouse ain't one
I sure loved having to take the ball out to clean the rollers inside every couple of months.
it's literally both and it mogs regardless
i use this
aren't trackballs literally touchpads but better?
My step dad has always used this kind of mouse and still does to this day. He plays first and third-person shooters with it.
Are wireless mice still inaccurate as fuck in 2025?
My dear, crusty, busted ass Gregor. wireless mice have been so low latency for so many fucking years now
no?
rtings.com
the best wireless mouse has a latency of 0.9ms while the best wired one has a latency of 0.6ms
Just don't use magnetrons next to your PC and you will be fine with wireless.
Zoomer larping as a boomer
Ball mice fucking sucked.
*Looks at massive magnetron crate I bought from clearance*
*sigh* I supposed wires aren't that bad.
they were using this exact mouse when I took over my current job. immediately made them buy a new mouse the next day lmao. still use it for the camera system though, looking at it right now
Oh look a gay mouse
it's such a shame the company making the fun early 2000s style mice don't have ones with the side mouse buttons. I'd love to have an aqua mouse for fun, but I don't think I could ever go back to only have 3 mouse buttons
No one who actually used ball mice ever said this unironically. Those things were cheap, imprecise and more importantly broke all the time.
absolutely fucking does not
I miss a lot of things about the past, but cleaning mouse balls is not one one of them
optical mice were a clear, unambiguous upgrade
Ball mice can stay dead like the dial up modem
They were fucking awful. The first time I bought an optical mouse I felt like a god.
Hell no. Not as bad as some make it out to be though if you weren't retarded.
based. it just needs a usb c charging port
What would happen, if you put the mouse ball up a girl's ass?
