Video summary
The reviewer is a long-time trackball user - he started on a Logitech M570 - and works in Photoshop and video editing, where he says the thumb ball is faster than lifting and repositioning a mouse. He uses the EM01 for a few days across Photoshop, general office work and timeline editing, and reports that only the size and feel needed an adjustment period.
Features he demonstrates: four light modes (streamer, breathing, mixed colour breathing and neon), a 20-degree adjustable tilt plate, forward and back buttons, a DPI button and switching between three devices, one through the 2.4G receiver and two over Bluetooth. He also rates the click feel of the main buttons and the scroll wheel.
The direct comparison is with the Logitech MX Ergo. He calls the EM01 essentially the same shape but with more features - RGB lighting and an extra Bluetooth connection - and a lower price: 59.99 USD against 79 USD for the MX Ergo, with a launch discount bringing it to 47.99 USD. Verdict: a strong first product from a new brand, and he recommends it for anyone already curious about a trackball.
