About Perixx
Perixx Computer GmbH was founded in 2006 in Düsseldorf, Germany, as a solution provider focused on computer peripherals, chiefly keyboards and mice. The company's name is a portmanteau of its own making: PERI for its peripheral-business focus, and the double XX meant to signal ongoing technological progress. Alongside its Düsseldorf head office, Perixx runs a US office in Paramount, California, giving it a direct presence in the market its ergonomic keyboards and vertical mice are reviewed in here.
The company's stated approach is practical functionality and ergonomic design at a fair price, paired with manufacturing partnerships rather than one-off imports. That shows up in our own testing: the PERIBOARD-512B split keyboard and the PERIMICE-713L and PERIMICE-713RX vertical mice are all backed by real, sizable Amazon review pools rather than the thin, unreviewed listings that fill out the budget end of the ergonomic-peripherals category.

Perixx products we rated highly
Perixx PERIBOARD-512B Ergonomic Split Keyboard
A fixed split layout that delivers the core forearm-pronation relief of ergonomic typing without the premium price tag of adjustable or contoured designs. The integrated wrist rest keeps hand elevation consistent without a separate accessory to buy or position, and long-travel membrane keys give deliberate tactile feedback that traditional typists find easy to adjust to. Nearly 9,500 verified Amazon reviews give it one of the deepest real-world data sets in the category at this price.

Perixx PERIMICE-713L Wireless Left-Handed Vertical Mouse
One of the few genuinely left-handed vertical mice we found at a budget price, in a category where most affordable listings are unreviewed imports. More than 2,600 ratings make it the most-proven affordable left-handed option we tested. Six buttons and three-level adjustable DPI cover navigation and cursor-speed changes that cheaper mice typically omit, and a 2.4 GHz nano receiver keeps it plug-and-play on locked-down office machines.

Perixx PERIMICE-713RX Rechargeable Vertical Mouse
Dual charging, a standard cable plus an included wireless charging pad, so the mouse tops up between sessions and avoids the dead-battery friction point that undermines most rechargeable mice. It brings rechargeable convenience to an affordable price tier where rechargeable vertical mice are usually absent, and pairs a comfortable handshake sculpt with three-level DPI and a plug-and-play 2.4 GHz receiver for corporate desktops.

- Two decades of focus on ergonomic input devices since its 2006 founding in Düsseldorf, Germany, with a dedicated US office in Paramount, California.
- One of the only brands we found offering a genuinely left-handed vertical mouse at an accessible price, a niche most manufacturers skip entirely.
- The PERIBOARD-512B split keyboard carries nearly 9,500 verified Amazon reviews, a deeper real-world track record than most keyboards at its price.
- Products across both keyboards and mice pair real ergonomic mechanisms, split layouts, vertical hand orientation, with prices that remove the financial barrier to trying the format.
- The PERIMICE-713RX's dual cable-and-pad charging system solves the dead-battery problem that undermines most rechargeable mice at this price tier.
