Targus Wins CES 2024 Innovation Award for its ErgoFlip EcoSmart Mouse That Uniquely Combines    Ergonomics with a Sustainable, Patent-Pending Design to Easily Convert from Left- to Right-Hand Use

The patent-pending ErgoFlip EcoSmart Mouse combines ergonomics with a sustainable design to convert from left- to right-hand use with a simple twist of the top. Part of Targus’ lineup of EcoSmart™ tech accessories, this eco-friendly mouse is made from 85 percent post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic, comes in packaging made from recycled materials, and uses an ultra-low power Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE) 5.0 chipset that is four times more energy efficient than standard BLE chipsets to reduce power consumption and extend battery life.    

Additionally, the mouse comes equipped with a 4000 DPI Pixart PMW3310 infrared optical sensor to deliver gaming-level performance and precision for power users. Compatible with various operating systems, it can be easily paired with three devices then switched between devices at the press of a button. 

For added protection, it incorporates Targus’ DefenseGuard™, an antimicrobial additive that is infused into the product to help create a cleaner surface while working continuously to protect the mouse by preventing the growth of microorganisms. 

This unique mouse is the latest addition to Targus’ lineup of EcoSmart tech accessories following the launch of its CES 2023 Innovation Award Honoree, the Sustainable Energy Harvesting EcoSmart™ Keyboard, which launched earlier this year. The ErgoFlip EcoSmart Mouse is now available at Targus.com and through participating retailers throughout the US, Canada, and Europe.
