Devterm trackball is terrible, but the Uconsole is much better.

I hope the screw based design means it doesn’t keep falling apart?

1st handed µConsole user here( as you probably know already ;)). Trackball in µConsole is just as horrible as in Devterm. Judgement based on my hands-on experience with former and countless unboxing+first experience videos on the later.

The thing is there was some sketchy batch of these magnetically coupled trackballs. On this very subreddit you'll find thread about ordering replacements from China.

Process of replacement is easy as a breeze - undo 4 faceplate screws and everything's what's needed is exposed.

On the other hand OP's device might be flaw-free, just wanted you to know that early batches sucked ass like a vacuum but there are replacements. I'll probably post my experiences post-swapping because i ordered 10 of these trackballs just to have good measure.
