Kensington Announces Flagship Finger-Operated Trackball for Creative Professionals

Award-Winning Expert Mouse™ TB800 EQ Trackball Delivers Precision Tracking and Responsiveness for Demanding Creative Workflows

BURLINGAME, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#accessoriesKensington, a worldwide leader of desktop computing and mobility solutions for IT, business, and home office professionals, today announced the Expert Mouse™ TB800 EQ Trackball, a next-generation, finger-operated ergonomic trackball that delivers premium performance and precise control for creative professionals and consumers.




A recipient of a prestigious 2025 iF Design Award, the TB800 enhances user comfort and productivity through advanced customization options, an adjustable scroll ring, exceptional tracking, an ambidextrous design, and seamless wireless connectivity. Featuring an innovative symmetrical design that is ideal for use by left- and right-handed users, the TB800 incorporates a slight angle that enables users to operate the trackball with their hands in a natural resting position that maximizes comfort and potentially reduces fatigue and repetitive strain injuries.

Compatible with Windows and macOS, the trackball features a rechargeable lithium battery that provides up to four months of productivity with a single charge, using an included USB-C® cable for in-use charging and wired connectivity. In addition, the plastic in the TB800 is composed of 47% post-consumer recycled (PCR) content.

Features and Benefits of the Expert Mouse™ TB800 EQ Trackball include:

  • Flexible Navigation Options for Personalized Control – An adjustable scroll ring enables users to effortlessly switch between line-by-line and smooth scrolling. Two customizable side scrolls provide horizontal scrolling and zooming, and a convenient switch makes it easy to disable scrolling to reduce accidental inputs.
  • Exceptional Optical Tracking Technology – The large 55mm ball provides highly accurate and responsive tracking with minimal hand and wrist movement. An adjustable polling rate up to 1kHz via wired or dongle connection delivers ultra-responsive performance for accurate control.
  • Ambidextrous Design – Supports all-day comfort for both right- and left-handed users with average to large-sized hands. The trackball operates in less desk space than a mouse and promotes greater comfort during extended use by minimizing arm and wrist movement.
  • Wireless and Wired Connection to Multiple Devices – Connect up to four devices using two wireless Bluetooth® connections, one wireless 2.4GHz connection with government-grade 128-bit AES encryption, and one wired USB-C® connection, and instantly switch between computers and tablets without the need for re-pairing.
  • Free Professional Digital Audio Workstation Available – Avid Pro Tools Intro+ software provides sound engineers with access to an extended version of Pro Tools, the industry standard software trusted by audio professionals worldwide.
  • Advanced Customization Options – Choose plug & play convenience or personalize the experience using free Kensington Konnect™ software. Kensington Konnect™ software enables users to assign functions to up to 16 sets of programmable buttons to enhance user productivity and efficiency.

“In the nearly 40 years since Kensington introduced the trackball to personal computing, the company has continuously innovated and improved trackball products to evolve with computing technology and usage,” explained Lisa Schuiteboer Shuler, Senior Manager of Product Marketing, Global Marketing at Kensington. “This new trackball is our most advanced trackball yet, offering a combination of ergonomic design, customization capabilities, and optical tracking technology to deliver the premium performance and precise control demanded by today’s creative professionals.”

The Expert Mouse™ TB800 EQ Trackball is covered by Kensington’s professional support and a three-year limited warranty and will be available in North America in Q4 2025 through the Kensington Store and its partner sites.
