Keychron's new T1 HE wireless trackball mouse lets users fine-tune the trackball's position for enhanced ergonomic comfort. Available for preorder now, it features customizable buttons, adjustable DPI, and long battery life.

Keychron has expanded its trackball mouse lineup with the introduction of the T1 HE Wireless Adjustable Trackball Mouse, available for preorder now at $59.99. Unlike the company’s earlier Nape Pro model, which featured a slim design ideal for positioning close to a keyboard, the T1 HE adopts a more traditional layout with a 34mm trackball positioned on the side, similar to offerings from Logitech and Kensington. This design aims to improve ergonomics by allowing the trackball to rest naturally under the user's thumb.

To accommodate different hand sizes and thumb positions, the T1 HE includes a unique adjustment mechanism. On the underside of the mouse are two dials that allow users to make minor vertical and horizontal adjustments to the trackball’s placement. Although the range is limited to a few millimeters, these fine adjustments can significantly enhance comfort during prolonged use by minimizing thumb reach.

The mouse is equipped with an optical sensor whose sensitivity can be customized from 100 DPI to 2,400 DPI either via a button that cycles through preset levels or through Keychron’s Launcher software. This software also enables users to remap six customizable buttons and create macros, providing flexibility for different workflows.

Battery life is another highlight, with the T1 HE capable of lasting up to 106 hours in Bluetooth mode and about 98 hours when connected using the included 2.4GHz wireless receiver. For continuous use, it can also operate while charging through a USB-C cable.

The T1 HE is offered in black, white, or translucent options, with shipments expected to begin in early December according to Keychron. This release follows their first trackball device and reflects ongoing interest in ergonomic wireless input devices that fit a variety of user preferences and needs.
