Our Verdict
Logitech M570
Logitech M720 Triathlon
The Logitech M720 Triathlon is an excellent wireless office mouse, while the Logitech M570 is a very good ergonomic trackball mouse. The M720 Triathlon connects with its USB receiver or Bluetooth. It has four side buttons, a scroll wheel with L/R tilt buttons that also unlocks for free scrolling, and customization software compatible with Windows and macOS. It's best suited for a fingertip grip for all hand sizes. On the other hand, the M570 is a stationary trackball mouse with a pinky rest and only connects with its USB receiver. It's best suited for a palm grip for all hand sizes.
