Is anyone here using Magic Trackpad for work? or rather for a longer periods of time? Not necessarily with a hand over it whole 8 hours, but around 50% of that time.

I’m using a trackball right now and am considering a trackpad for my left hand. At first I would want to replace the trackball/mouse with a trackpad to put relief on my right hand, but I’m also considering using both.

What are your opinions on using the trackpad alone? (I do love it on my macbook, but during my work it’s mostly in clamshell) and what are your opinions on using a trackpad on one side and mouse on the other? is it a bit too much?

    So far no wrist pain issues! 🤞 I do get some pain in my thumb if I’m not careful to click lightly (I tend to slam it if I’m getting frustrated 😂 and could also be double duty with thumb stick usage when gaming after work) I use it 8+ hours a day 5 days a week for work and have been for ever a decade
