Customers are mixed about the scroll resistance of the input mouse. Some mention that it's a combination of ultrafast scrolling, ergonomic design, customizable features, and versatile, while others say that it is terrible and jittery on Mac, even with the mouse's compatibility with scrolling in MacOS Calendar.

Customers have mixed opinions about the button on the input mouse. Some mention that it's comfortable, heavy, has useful buttons, and has a lot of space.

The software allows for extensive customization of the mouse buttons and functions, and allows you to program the multiple buttons however you wish. However, some customers find the right button too easy to trigger by mistake, the left mouse button struggles on dropdowns, and that the scroll wheel is very hard to click. The gesture button cannot be customized with external software like BetterTouchTool-Customization is local to the mouse.

They appreciate the multiple connectivity options, including USB-C, Bluetooth, and USB receiver. However, some say that the connection issues are a little worrying for something that costs as much as it does. They say that it gets laggy and loses the Bluetooth connection often.

- Connectivity is as easy as it was with the 2, and I have no issues with intermittent disconnection on Bluetooth. Logi Options makes setup a breeze, walks you through the functions of the mouse if you haven't used one before, and is actually a useful piece of software. The Master 3 functions essentially as a wired mouse, and I doubt anyone but the most intense gamers playing twitch shooters would notice any meaningful delays in movement.
- Ergonomically, again nearly identical to the 2. For those that haven't used a MX Master mouse, it's extremely comfortable to use though does take a bit to get used to as it's a big "bulkier" than most mice. The feel is similar to holding a small, somewhat flattened baseball. I have no problem using this mouse for hours a day as a lot of my work is on the computer. There's no meaningful difference between the 2 and the 3, with the 3 just as comfortable as the 2. The 3 does seem to have a more rubberized texture on the body, which I personally like, but I anticipate that that will start to wear to some degree with heavy use.
- I LOVE the gesture button, and that's what made me interested in the Master series to begin with. I use a Mac, so the gesture button allows me to replicate the important functions of the trackpad - e.g., quickly switching between desktops, bringing up Expose and Mission Control, etc. - on the mouse. The 3 is no different than the 2 in this regard. The gesture button does feel a little "firmer," but that may be due to the fact that there's no wear on it at this point. If you're a Mac user and you're looking for something with a little more functionality than the Magic Mouse, this is the mouse for you.
- I haven't had a chance to test connectivity on multiple devices yet. Assuming this is the same as the 2, this is a very nice feature that generally worked well, though I had occasional issues with my 2 on macOS seemingly not recognizing the device when switching between devices. This was fixable by simply forgetting the mouse and reconnecting it, which really wasn't that inconvenient since Logi Options remembered my settings.
- The big difference between the 3 and the 2 is the mechanics of the scroll wheels. The scroll wheels on the 3 are MUCH superior, with a much quieter and smoother mechanism. This is a welcome change and is the primary difference that I've noticed between the two models thus far. The scroll wheel on the 2 would make a clearly audible clicking sound when used in "ratchet" mode, particularly when scrolled quickly, which doesn't happen with the 3.
- Another difference is that, on the 3, the forward and back buttons on the side of the mouse, just below the horizontal scroll wheel, are laid out in a way that actually makes sense. These buttons were far too close together on the 2 - literally on top of each other - making it difficult to discriminate between them. On the 3, there's a very small amount of space which makes it easier to figure out which button you're pushing, and they're oriented front/back rather than right on top of each other.. This is another welcome change. See the attached image to see the difference (the Master 3 is on the left, the Master 2 on the right).
If you currently have a perfectly functional Master 2, it probably isn't worth the cost to upgrade to 3 as the scroll wheel upgrade and changes layout of the forward/back buttons aren't, in my opinion, worth the $100 cost. However, if your old Master mouse is starting to kick the bucket or you just want to try the latest and greatest, the Master 3 is a very nice continuation of this great series of mice. Especially for Mac users, this is an excellent mouse as you can retain nearly all of the critical functionality of the trackpad with the generally easier use of a full mouse. Highly recommend!

Wheel - The primary wheel has been even more useful than I anticipated. I did not realize how much time I spent scrolling until I started using this mouse. The horizontal wheel has also been a revelation in my computer usage. In using Microsoft OneNote, I can use that wheel in tandem with the regular wheel for 2 axis scrolling. Meanwhile, if I have Spotify or Chrome open, I can use the horizontal wheel to control audio volume. Having this extra utility has been very convenient.
Sensor - Additionally, its sensor is fantastic. It is very accurate, and with adjustable DPI settings, can be adjusted to your preferences. I have not used it on glass, but have successfully used it on some surfaces other mice would not track on (such as fabric or carpet).
Software - My only complaint is that the software Logitech provides can be occasionally finnicky, althought it is generally reliable. The primary issues occur if you have the mouse on for a long time (say, 8 hours), as it seems to forget the customized actions I have set for certain buttons in certain applications. That said, a simple turning off and back on of the mouse rectifies any issues. I have not tried its multidevice capabilities, so I canot speak to that.
Battery - The battery has been wonderful. This is my first rechargeable mouse, and it has proven to be remarkable. I have charged it probably 3 or 4 times total after using it for hours per day for 7 months straight, and has provided me with warnings each time it needed charging.
Ergonomics - This mouse's ergonomics are fantastic. Prior to purchasing this, my wrist hurt after using my computer for more than 2or 3 hours. Now, I hae used my laptop for periods of 10 or more hours with no wrist fatigue. Conincidentally, the ergonomics also make the mouse visually unique. I have gotten numerous compliments on this mouse by my peers.
Summary - Overall, this mouse is easily one of my favorite pieces of technology. If you are looking for a gaming mouse, you may want to look elsewhere. If you are an engineer using CAD all the time, you may want to look at the 3dConnexion CadMouse. However, if you are looking for a very high quality mouse for general computer work and productivity, this is a fantastic option, if not the best.
Top reviews from other countries
Software has worked well for teaching it the shortcuts and gestures.
Have bought 2 of these. One for work and one for home. Works with Mac as well.
I have an iMac 5K and Windows Laptop with 27" monitor. I was struggling (for space) with two KBs and two mice. So while looking for the solution, I found the perfect answer - the MX combo. I read about the duo. These are fairly expensive but they have significantly increased my productivity. I have connected to both systems via BlueTooth (we can use the dongles also). Now I can simply move my mouse across and seamlessly connect to Mac or Windows and the KB too connects across. The two behave like two bodies and one soul! I can copy/paste across two systems as diverse as Mac and Windows. I have a provision to connect to a third system. Having freed the clutter on the desk has made my life so much easy. The desk looks clean also and of course, there are no wires.
The KB is solid aluminium and does not feel cheap. To date, I was using plastic keyboards. While they are not bad, this KB takes me to a different realm. The keys are illuminated and activated by the hand motion sensor. The keys are low profile - so some who like mechanical keys and long travel keystrokes may not like this. I prefer this way.
The mouse is so easy on the hand and is possibly the best in business. It has programmable keys and I can have keys specific to Word, Excel, Photoshop, etc. The scrolling is smooth. There is normal vertical scrolling, superfast vertical scrolling. I have horizontal thumb scrolling and a tiny recessed button to save (below the thumb). I have read some negative feedback on the system switch button (1-2-3) at the mouse bottom and being inconvenient but let me assure you that if Logi Options software is installed, the flow from one desktop to another is just by moving the mouse. It can be further restricted by having to press the control key to prevent accidental movement to next desktop screen.
Finally, both the devices can be charged by a cable and it connects by USB-C port on the devices. I am told that a single charge is sufficient to last over two months. Let's see. I used to own the first MX Master Mouse and if it has one flaw it was the charging dock. Over time, the gold plated contacts wore off and the mouse became a paperweight. This has been corrected by a sturdier USB charging port.
In summary, I will highly recommend this, especially to those having multiple systems. But even if you have a single system, you cannot go wrong - except maybe your pockets will become shallower. For this, I am docking off one point for VFM. Since I do not play games (not that I am against gaming), I am unable to comment on that aspect.
p/s. I also purchased the desk mat that is seen in the pic. It enhances the desk and makes it look really good.

Connectivity
Since my motherboard has built-in Bluetooth, I am using this mode/option. Battery life when in Bluetooth mode is excellent. After two months of daily use the battery level dropped to 50% from fully charged. This is definitely much better than the battery life of my MX Revolution which I typically had to recharge every 2 weeks.
Software
The supplied software is ok. It seems lighter in footprint than the old software that I was using with the MX Revolution. It basically allows you to configure the mouse the way you want it to work. There are default settings for various Apps like Chrome, MS Office, etc. The mouse is fully configurable if the software you are using is not in the default list. For example, I was able to configure the thumb scroll to switch between tabs when using the Firefox browser.
Features
The main reason I got this mouse is because of the notch-less scroll wheel which has become my favorite feature ever since I tried it on my older Logitech mice. This feature can still be switched on and off (I prefer it at notch-less most of the time) and I love how I can scroll through pages with just the flick. The wheel appear to be both heavier and smoother than ever. It does have a new mag-wheel mechanism whereby when in notch mode, it automatically switches to free-wheel or notch-less mode whenever the wheel is flicked hard enough... Going back to notch mode as the wheel slows down. I still prefer notch-less all the time but this is a nice feature for those who might want it.
Ergonomics
This is where I think my older MX Revolution beats the new MX Master 3. The MX Master 3 borders on becoming a little too big whereas the MX Revolution in my opinion is sized just right. It also takes getting used to when reaching for the back and forward buttons with your thumb. Those buttons were more readily accessible on the MX Revolution. However, the thumb scroller on the MX Master 3 is much better and more accessible than the thumb wheel on the MX Revolution. Overall I have a slight preference to the MX Master 3 over the MX Revolution mainly because of the smoother scroll wheel and also the more usable thumb scroller.
Final words
This mouse would have been perfect if it were sized the same as my MX Revolution. However it is still an excellent mouse and I have no hesitation recommending it.

Connectivity
Since my motherboard has built-in Bluetooth, I am using this mode/option. Battery life when in Bluetooth mode is excellent.
