Our Verdict

Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Mouse

Logitech M720 Triathlon

The Logitech M720 Triathlon and the Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Mouse are both ergonomic mice designed for office use; however, the Logitech performs better overall. It has more programmable inputs and a scroll wheel that unlocks for free scrolling. It also feels better built and is Bluetooth-compatible. Conversely, the Microsoft has a tilted ergonomic shape so that your wrist rests directly on the surface you're working on.
