Elecom announces Ist Plus trackball mice with innovative 5-ball rollers

Elecom has announced the Ist Plus trackball mice series in Japan, with the M-IT10MRS models using newly-developed 5-ball rollers for reduced friction and the M-IT11MRSBK models using regular linear rollers.

The 5-button programmable mice come with silent switches and an adjustable 100 to 4,000 DPI tracking resolution. The 36 mm (1.4 in.) trackball and rollers are user-replaceable, and all models can have their rollers swapped out for either the 5-ball rollers (M-TU03SS) or linear rollers (M-BS10).

The Elecom Ist Plus trackball mice are compatible with Windows, macOS, or ChromeOS computers when using a USB-A connection, and Windows, macOS, iOS, iPadOS, ChromeOS, and Android devices when using a Bluetooth connection.

The dual-mode mice pair with up to three devices at once over wireless Bluetooth connections. They can also pair over 2.4 GHz connections when using the optional Elecom Bridge E USB receiver (M-ER10GY). The receiver is designed for corporate environments where secrecy is critical and comes with Bluetooth LE Security Level 4 leveraging data encryption to prevent data theft.

The former has an MSRP of 8,380 yen (~$55) and the latter has an MSRP of 10,980 yen (~$70). Both are available for pre-order in black or white from May 26, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. JST until June 14 at 11:59 p.m. JST, with shipments beginning late June.
