Kensington Pro Fit Ergo TB675 Vertical Trackball Launches in North America

Kensington has launched two new trackball models designed for users who spend long hours at a desk. The Pro Fit Ergo TB675 series introduces a vertical orientation that aims to reduce physical strain during extended workflows.

Ergonomic vertical design reduces wrist strain for hybrid workers and IT professionals

The lineup includes both wired and wireless variants under the model identifiers K72170WW and K72171WW. Kensington positions these devices as ergonomic input peripherals for hybrid workers and IT professionals managing multi-device environments.

Both models feature a 60-degree vertical design that supports natural wrist and thumb positioning. The central control mechanism is a 34 mm thumb-operated trackball paired with a high-precision optical sensor. Users can adjust the cursor speed across four DPI settings ranging from 400 to 1600.

The wireless version offers flexible connectivity through a 2.4 GHz dongle, dual Bluetooth channels, or a wired USB-C connection. Kensington states that the battery lasts up to four months on a single charge. The wired model provides direct plug-and-play functionality via USB-C and includes a USB-A adapter for older ports.

Kensington has released both trackballs in North America through its official store and partner sites. Both models are backed by a three-year limited warranty. Pricing information for both models remains undisclosed at this time.

Dalia Thompson, global marketing manager at Kensington, noted that modern professionals expect more from input devices as hybrid work becomes standard. The new trackballs add nine programmable buttons to allow customized productivity workflows. A metal 4D scroll wheel provides additional navigation control for detailed tasks.
