TechRise Ergonomic Vertical Mouse (4800 DPI) – Wireless 2.4G Silent Click Ergonomic Mouse for PC/Laptop/Mac, Black
Product description
What it is and why people buy it
If you spend hours on a computer, a vertical mouse is often bought to reduce the wrist angle that a traditional mouse can force. The TechRise ergonomic vertical mouse is designed around a “handshake” style grip, with the wrist aligned at a 57° angle to the desk. On paper, that can feel more natural for the forearm, especially during long office sessions.
It’s also built to be practical day-to-day: wireless 2.4G connection, optical tracking, textured grip, and quiet “soft-click” buttons intended for settings where you don’t want your clicks to carry.
The essentials that stand out
Where this mouse aims to be most convincing is in the combination of ergonomics and day-to-day comfort. The grip uses a soft, textured surface and a rubber-oil feel that’s described as sweat-resistant, anti-slip and fingerprint-resistant—useful if your hands get warm while working. It’s not a gaming mouse first, but it’s positioned for productivity use.
For tracking control, you get 5 adjustable DPI levels: 4800 / 3200 / 2400 / 1600 / 800. When you change DPI, an indicator light flashes so you know the sensitivity has moved.
There’s also a quiet approach: the buttons are described as soft-click with up to 95% noise reduction, and the scroll wheel is meant to be discreet. This tends to matter in open-plan offices, libraries, classrooms, and conference rooms.
What you’ll notice in use
In everyday use, the biggest “feel” differences are likely to be (1) how your forearm rests with the vertical angle and (2) whether the silent click behaviour suits your environment. If you’re the type of person who can’t stand loud clicking, the soft-click concept is a direct win.
A small practical detail: the side buttons are meant to make browsing easier by turning pages. It’s a sensible extra for web work, but it also means you’ll want to check how those buttons behave on your setup.
One limitation to keep in mind: the note says the USB receiver is located at the back of the mouse, and that the side buttons may not work on MacOS. So if you mainly rely on side-button shortcuts on a Mac, you may find this less convenient than a fully compatible model.
Connectivity and setup
This is a 2.4GHz wireless mouse using plug & play, with no driver required. The manufacturer states up to 10 meters of wireless freedom, which is helpful if you tend to work a bit away from your desktop.
Power-wise, it runs on 2 AAA batteries (not included). It’s designed to enter sleep mode after 30 seconds of inactivity and wakes when you press any button. There’s an LED indicator for low power, and the claim is up to 6 months of battery life if used around 2 hours per day. That’s the kind of figure you should treat as a target under typical use, but it still suggests it’s built to be low-maintenance.

Who it suits (and who should think twice)
It makes sense if you want a wireless ergonomic vertical mouse for everyday PC/laptop work and you care about reducing click noise. It’s also a solid choice if you like having sensitivity options via the 5 DPI levels, rather than locking yourself to one setting.
It may not suit you if side buttons need to work reliably on MacOS, because the documentation note explicitly warns they may not. Also, if you’re expecting ultra-precise high-end gaming style performance, vertical mice like this are usually more about comfort than competitive gaming features.
Worth considering if your current mouse leaves you with wrist discomfort after long sessions, but you should still treat it as a personal-fit situation—ergonomics are rarely one-size-fits-all.
Is it worth it?
Final verdict
Buy the TechRise ergonomic vertical mouse if you’re mainly looking for a comfortable wrist-friendly setup, quiet clicks for shared spaces, and a simple 2.4G plug & play wireless experience with adjustable DPI.
Skip it (or double-check compatibility) if MacOS side-button shortcuts are important to how you work, because the side buttons may not function there. And if you’re after specialised gaming performance, this is more of a productivity and comfort-focused design than a “serious gamer” tool.
