I’ve been using a new mouse in my blogging life for the past two weeks – PENCLIC. Designed to reduce tension in arms and shoulders and keep our finger muscles more relaxed during work.
Ergonomic Design for A Computer Mouse
Here’s what appreciate about this nifty pen after working with it enough time to discover what works and what needs improvement.
A PENCLIC Mouse is the ergonomic computer mouse that feels and moves like a pen.
#1 Love the Convenience and Versatility of Wireless and USB Connectivity
It is awesome to have this option. Obviously, wireless is the option we all choose. However, sometimes, being in a situation without wireless connection would welcome a wire-to-computer connection.
A nifty retractable USB cord will connect a PENCLIC mouse to the computer. All the essentials for the mouse are kept in a felt pouch which can travel with you anywhere to allow all the mouse essentials to be located on the spot.
#2 Comfortable Grip For A Relaxed Working Position
I enjoyed a familiar convenient grip of holding a pen in my fingers. The diameter, the glide, the position of the the click buttons worked just fine. It took me some adjustment to learn which click corresponds with what action on the screen. But it’s a learning curve that we are willing to accept when test driving a new device.
The pen grip provides a relaxed working position to help secure strength and make your output more efficient.
#3 Convenient Click Buttons
There’s a total of 5 buttons on the PENCLIC mouse. I found myself to be using only three of them really frequently. Basic operations like click-through and highlighting are done from the same button panel. The multiple operations like copy, paste, save, and a ton of others are made available by clicking a third button which allows for a drop-down screen. It is very much compatible to any other regular mouse function.
This mouse operates on almost any surface without any pad. I tried to glide it across my mouse pad and then without it and found it the same quality.
What I find it tremendously inconvenient is the positioning of the scroll wheel. I really don’t know why it was designed to be positioned quite away from the pen itself. It is awkward to toggle between the pen with all the buttons on it and the scrolling wheel which is located on a small panel where the PENCLIC is mounted. This feature makes it difficult and time-consuming to switch from scrolling wheel to pen and back.
Yes, PENCLIC has an awesome ergonomic design and ease of gliding across the desk surface. The only thing that makes it less attractive is the position of a scroll wheel. You gotta try it to see if you really would like to incorporate this interesting mouse pen into your daily life.

This is such a cool idea! I think it would be perfect for people in the graphic design field!
That is a really interesting mouse! I have never seen one like it before
Hi, firstly id like to say that I work for Penclic. Thx for your great review 🙂
I see that some of you commenting are left handed. We have a 3 button equivalent which is great for lefties. It also has the scroll wheel placed on the shaft of the pen which takes care of some of the issues mentioned above. (Although I actually prefer the placement of the scroll wheel on the 5 button version which is what I use every day)
We have heard that lots of people have found that the mouse helps when you suffer from CTS so I hope its the same for you Ashleigh
That is just so neat! I would love to have that mouse. Can’t wait to see the difference between our old mouse.
What a nice looking mouse!! I love trying new gadgets out this looks like a great one to try!
This looks great! I am in the market for a new mouse since my 8 month old got a hold of mine and dropped it into a cup of water. I am up for something new and interesting!
This is an interesting mouse. I probably should check it out. I have rheumatoid arthritis and have noticed that my hands hurt now. 🙁
I have some carpal tunnel issues. I would be interested in seeing how this compares to my current mouse, on the wishlist!
This is so cool! I would love to have one for myself! It sounds really convenient too!
This is really interesting. I’ve never seen a mouse like this. I’m wondering if this would help me, as I tend to get wrist pain after being at my computer all day long.
I have never seen a computer mouse like this!! I would love to try it, sounds like it ahs a lot of benefits to it.
That looks really neat. I’ll have to take a look at this more. I haven’t seen anything really like it before.
That is very neat. I love that this is wireless.That’s definitely a plus.
This mouse looks so cool. I just love the ergonomic design. I will check this out.
Oh wow! This sounds like an awesome mouse. I need to get one for myself. I think it would help me tremendously.
what a cool invention, I’d love to try it out some day… thanks for sharing : )
Wow this is so cool! I think this would be great for me – I use my mouse on my laptop, but I’m a lefty and I’m super used to using an actual mouse with my right hand. Love this!
This is an interesting take on the traditional computer mouse. I don’t even use a mouse anymore with my laptop. This does look interesting though!
That’s an interesting idea. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a mouse like this before. I think it would be great for doing line work in Photoshop and Illustrator.
I wonder–I am a leftie but work a mouse with my right hand–would I be able to work this or would I end up feeling uncomfortable altogether. It is an interesting concept but not sure I would actually buy one to try it out.
