Our Verdict

Logitech MX Vertical

Logitech Lift

The Logitech MX Vertical and the Logitech Lift are similar wireless vertical mice designed for office and productivity. The MX Vertical is better suited for larger-sized hands and recharges with an included USB-C cable. On the other hand, the Logitech Lift is better suited for smaller hand sizes and uses a single AA battery for power. The two mice have the same number of buttons, but the Lift has a button directly behind the scroll wheel, while the MX Vertical has a button on the top of the mouse.
