3Dconnexion SpaceMouse Wireless Bluetooth Edition

I have the previous version which required their usb receiver. I travel with this and was tired of keeping track of the receiver. I had to use a USB-A to C adapter. This bluetooth version works exactly the same as the previous version on my Mac, except I'm only connected through bluetooth. I moved the other one into my office where I don't care if I need the usb receiver.

I bought, BOTH, the corded and cordless versions for my different computers. After a very short while I became very instinctual in manipulating my 3D designs! Wonderful!!

I picked one up on a whim hoping it would alleviate some of the stress on my right wrist while cad-ing, but in practice I didn't use it enough to make a difference. I ended up returning it, but I did like it... it just wasn't worth the price for the occasional use I would give it. (I have too many alternative input devices that didn't work for me laying around and I couldn't bear to add to the pile. Trackballs, LEAP motion, macro pads, pen tablet... I just keep falling back to mouse and keyboard.)The hardware feels lovely: base is super heavy, grippy and solid; the cap/joystick/thing feels durable despite being lightweight and easy to manipulate; pleasing fit and finish overall. It wasn't too hard to get used to moving around with it. It has plenty of sensitivity and it's easy to adjust to fit your tastes. It just works in most software with little setup. I even got it to work with Tinkercad via a Chrome plugin. It comes with a quality zipper case, cable, dongle and nice (but not too overdone) packaging.The software, while feature-rich, feels a teeny bit wonky on Windows - for instance, the uninstaller failed on me and I had to run it a few times before it worked. That nice, heavy base is a burden if you want to actually bring this thing around with you. My bag already weighs plenty, thanks. The wired one is probably fine for most folks with a desktop or dock, unless you're obsessed with having a cable-free desktop.So yeah, if you're working in CAD all day and want to move your camera around with your free hand, this is for you! Otherwise, I don't think it's worth the cost for most casual designers.

You won’t want to ☠️ yourself when you cad software keeps flipping to random positions and you have to pan and zoom. Also check out the cad mouse first, you may be interested

Best 3D mouse ever. Must have if you do 3D modeling.

A friend suggested that I should incorporate this device into my design flow. Wow, what an improvement! It didn’t even take that much time to get used to.

Works perfectly to do precision movements in the 3D environment of EPLAN Pro Panel, AutoCAD and Inventor.

I couldn't be happier with this purchase. It has become so second nature to use that when I'm in any 3D environment without it I almost forget how to navigate.
