The MX Master 3S isn't the best mouse for productivity. This is.

Logitech's MX Master series has a new successor in the form of the Master 3S. It is the de facto productivity mice used by professionals around the world. However, there is a huge flaw that even the newest Master 3S has not fixed. In this video I'll tell you what that flaw is and which mouse you can use instead of the MX Master 3.

I used to think that nothing would ever beat the MX Master 3, until i got a job that don't allow me to install software on my work computer.

I love the Triathlon mouse. I've been using it for 3 years and it has everything I need for what I do (graphic design). However, there is a huge caveat: The scroll wheel will break, and depending on how often you use it, it will probably break sometimes within a year or so. I've had to purchase 3 so far in 3 years. Eventually, the scroll wheel starts skipping and becomes very inconsistent. I've even tried cleaning it, but it doesn't help.

If not that for issue, it would be a perfect mouse. I also bought the MX Master 3S, thinking I would like it more, but I don't. The big issue I have with the 3S is the lack of tilt scroll (and I don't like Options+). I use it constantly and can't function with out. Also, the newer software doesn't allow you to set up a button to toggle smooth scrolling (software, not the button). So, I returned my MX Master for another Triathlon. It's just the best, so far. And you can buy almost 3 of them for the price of one MX Master 3S.

This is exactly what I needed! I don't need side scroll wheel and seamless switch between devices, but it has a good sensor and more buttons!

The rubber grip peeled off within 1 month and deteriorates too quickly (within 1 year)

Wow, never looked at this mouse before because the MX Master series is always widely advertised but I guess I’ll check it out! Thanks for the recommendation!

I have it for 3 years. I ordered 3s last week because it is "better" right?
I sent the 3s back next day. M720 is definitely better. Especially, the gesture button is more ergonomic. I couldn't get used to the mx3s's gesture button. I had to reposition my wrist to press that. With M720, it is always under my thumb.
Only problem with M720 is it is a bit small for my large palm.

Also, today, the left mouse button is acting all crazy. After looking on internet, found that that it is a common issue. I opened it up and cleaned. But it doesnt help.
I'm thinking of getting a new M720 or to give MX3s another try.

Great advice, since you lose so much of the value from the mx without extra settings. I didnt know there was an alternative. The one MAJOR downside for me is how loud it is. Any advice for a silent workhorse?

While the 604 is the best mouse I ever owned and works well for my use case, unfortunately it has a double click issue. I own 2 of them - 1st lasted about 2 years to the point it became almost unusable and second is a year old and started to show some ‘bad’ signs recently. The worst thing is that I’m so used to it and I don’t really know what to substitute it with as there basically no other such options available out there:( Most likely I’ll be getting g502x lightspeed but then it doesn’t have a Bluetooth:((

[Mafioso]

Discontinued, whats an alternative? Need a mouse with the same amount of numbers and the fast scrolling option.

[tejowisnuuntoro]

What about the battery power?

How long does it take from 100% to 0%?

My MX Master 3S left click doesn't function anymore after 2 years.

[JoeCastellon]

I'm torn between the M720 and the G604. The extra buttons are appealing, so is the on-board memory. But I truly hate the Logitech G Hub Software 😩

[LiveLot]

I love my G602 but unfortunately it is plagued by the same problem I had with the m720, the g502, the Razer Basilisk X, and a couple of off-brand mice. After less than a year of use for each mouse they all start to register single clicks as double clicks which needless to say is extremely annoying. I wish Logitech would just bite the bullet and buy or redesign better switches for these products :(.

The only thing that could be better about the MX Master 3 is to have the side wheel have less resistance. Honestly though, having the side buttons mapped to shift and control on a mouse that doesnt have a side scroll wheel will be just as good. You just wont have spare buttons to map to other shortcuts.

Can you name any other wireless bluetooth mice that have onboard memory feature like this one?
Another type, or maybe another brands have?

Great video btw.

[lecxarcangel]

Thank God I was able to watch this video cause I too have the same issue with a company laptop. Was really looking into mx master 3s but i just wasn't sure if it will be maximized since I can't properly use it without downloading the software in said work laptop.

Tried asking a few friends as well for their recommendation and not one mentioned this mouse. They all said that there's no mouse in existence with an on board memory. Thank God for your vid

[MannyDubDub]

I have the G604, I have large hands and after a while I get hand and wrist pain. It's not super ergonomic, not terrible, but not great. So i'm going to be getting the MX master 3s.

[staticoverplastic]

sadly it seems that they've discontinued this mouse? i've used mine till parts of the rubber on the left and right sides have completely worn down. was considering buying a spare in case my current one ever dies only to discover it can't be bought :(. 502 doesn't fit my hand as well.

[RenatoSuarez]

Thanks bro, It was very useful to know that the MX master 3s doesnt have the integrated memory.

[icweener]

The thumb gesture button for MX is very buggy. Im not sure why. I'm considering this as my next mouse
