Contour Design SliderMouse Pro trackpad light grey

Ode to the SliderMouse Pro

Conveyor belt

Many of us may not even notice it anymore due to the introduction of self-checkout in supermarkets. But Contour Design is standing firm. They simply incorporate the track into their latest central mouse.

Why the SliderMouse Pro?

Centred mouse

The SliderMouse Pro is what they call a central mouse or a trackpad mouse. This is a mouse that is placed between the user and the keyboard. This allows you to maintain a compact posture, enabling you to continue working comfortably in an ergonomic position. Because the SliderMouse Pro is relatively flat and the controls are close together, you can use your fingers and hands without excessive stretching, twisting, or overstraining.

Slider bar

At the top of the SliderMouse Pro, you'll find the slider bar which you can use to control the cursor on your computer. You can use both your left and right hand for this. Additionally, you can operate the clickable slider bar with a light touch. Thanks to this slider bar, you don't need to move your hands and wrists unnecessarily across your desk. You'll need to get used to this at first, but we promise it's worth it.

Buttons

The central panel has 6 buttons and a scroll wheel, making it even easier to navigate your screen. The buttons are also programmable using a driver (see downloads section). Programming buttons can be useful if you frequently use the same key combinations, such as cut and paste or navigating forwards and backwards.

What makes the SliderMouse Pro so good?

Integrated wrist rest

The SliderMouse Pro includes an integrated wrist rest. This ensures that your wrists are supported while using the trackpad, as well as when using your keyboard. A wrist rest prevents wrist flexion, and thus discomfort. This way, you can comfortably use both your mouse and keyboard.

The wrist rests compatible with the SliderMouse Pro are available in different sizes and materials.

Keyboard risers

With the help of the keyboard risers, you can, literally, elevate your workspace to a higher level. These separate risers allow you to adjust your keyboard ergonomically in combination with the SliderMouse Pro. Because the keyboard risers are adjustable on two sides, you have 4 mounting options: a negative tilt, a positive tilt, neutral flat, and raised flat. Try out all the possibilities to discover what suits you best.

Get the most out of your SliderMouse Pro

To make your new SliderMouse Pro truly your own, the trackpad offers several options. For example, you can choose from 5 different click resistances and click sounds. The cursor speed can also be adjusted, with a choice of 10 different settings (600-2800 DPI). We recommend trying everything out to feel what suits you best.

Don't miss this either

Sister of

The SliderMouse Pro was launched together with the RollerMouse Pro. This is almost the same trackpad, with only a small difference in cursor control. The RollerMouse Pro has a cylindrical pointer that controls the cursor. We recommend looking at both models before making your final choice.
