1. 🖱️ Reasons for Buying MX Master 4 and First Impressions: A Satisfying Choice Despite the High Price
- ✅ Considered purchasing the MX Master 4 due to the limited number of buttons on existing mice.
- ✅ Worried about the price of ₩179,000 (Japanese MSRP 21,890 yen).
- ✅ Conclusion: Although the price is high, I am very satisfied with the improvement in work efficiency and purchased another one for the office.
- ✅ I agree with Itseop's review that he bought them all for the office after using it.
| Mouse Type | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|
| Trackball Mouse | Good for wrist health | Difficult to adapt to because it is different from existing mouse habits |
| Vertical Mouse | Reduces wrist strain | Personally, the grip feels very foreign |
