Keychron Launches $59.99 T1 HE Wireless Adjustable Trackball Mouse

Keychron is taking preorders for its $59.99 T1 HE right-handed wireless trackball mouse whose 34mm side-mounted ball can be repositioned to fit a user's thumb, The Verge and BigGo Finance reported. Available in black, white, or translucent finishes through Keychron's online store with shipping expected in early December, the T1 HE follows Keychron's CES 2026 Nape Pro trackball, The Verge reported. Two dials on the underside let users shift the ball vertically and horizontally or extend and retract it by a few millimeters, while Yanko Design noted roughly 3mm to 3.5mm of horizontal travel and 2mm to 2.5mm vertically.

Sensor, Switches, and Battery Specs

The T1 HE features an optical sensor adjustable from 100 DPI to 2,400 DPI, six remappable buttons, onboard memory, and support for the web-based Keychron Launcher software, BigGo Finance reported. Keychron also equips the mouse with MagOpt (or MagOptic) switches combining Hall effect and optical sensing, offering 11 magnetic actuation settings and Rapid Trigger support, according to BigGo Finance and Yanko Design. A 600mAh battery delivers up to 106 hours of use over Bluetooth across up to three paired devices, or 98 hours via the bundled 2.4GHz receiver, alongside wired USB-C operation, The Verge and Yanko Design noted. The Keychron T1 HE features ceramic ball bearings and measures 81.3 × 119.4 × 53.3 mm, according to Notebookcheck.

Yanko Design added that configuring the mouse in Keychron Launcher requires a wired or 2.4GHz connection rather than Bluetooth, and the ball can be lifted out for cleaning. BigGo Finance noted that at $59.99, the T1 HE costs about half as much as Logitech's MX Ergo S.
