Logitech MX Master 2S Bluetooth Edition Wireless Mouse, Multi-Surface, Hyper-Fast Scrolling, Ergonomic, Rechargeable, Connects Up to 3 Mac/PC Computers

Occasionally I will buy a more expensive item for my computer just to see if the increased cost is worth it or not. Sometimes it is, and sometimes it is not. When I had gotten a new laptop I wanted to get a new mouse with it, and the only features I was really looking for were bluetooth, and the ability to use it on basically any surface. I have had this for nearly a year as of posting this review. So. What did I end up getting? For starters, I did test the mouse on all kinds of weird surfaces, such as glass, my hand, or my computer monitors, and it worked pretty smoothly on every surface I tested. So it nails that. The bluetooth works amazingly well as well, and the battery life is incredible - requiring charged only after weeks of use. I have had problems with wireless mice having a delay on initial movement, which sounds like a minor problem until you are experiencing it. No delay with this mouse. It is very responsive. The mouse wheel was a nice surprise. It has some special thought put into it. It has the ability to roll like most wheels do, the ability to free spin, and a button to toggle these modes. What it also has is the ability to do a hybrid of these where, if you spin it with a low amount of force it spins normally, but if you spin it harder it toggles to free spin. If you install the mouse's software, you can configure how much force it takes to smoothly transition into the free spin, or to effectively disable that feature. On the side of the mouse is a scroll wheel that controls side to side movement in the way the scroll wheel handles up and down. Very useful for applications like spreadsheets where sideways scrolling is a thing. The mouse has a number of buttons on it that can be configured in the software. One of those buttons is actually underneath where your thumb rests, and is resistant enough to prevent accidental presses, and not so resistant that it is a pain to use. One of the things you can configure in the software is what that button does when you hold it and move the mouse. Holding it and swiping the mouse down might minimize everything on your screen, while an up or sideways motion, or a direct tap is configured to do something else. Neat feature set, right? Well that isn't even all it can do. It has another feature in which you can connect it to multiple computers, and then you and move the mouse around between them like they are all multiple monitors. You can also move files between the computers this way. The feature is a bit on the slow side, needing time to disconnect from one computer and connect to the other when switching, which isn't as smooth as you might hope. However, it is still a very useful feature if you have multiple systems and often move files between them. Great quality of life feature! Overall, this mouse far exceeded my expectations. I was not expecting to say that this mouse is worth every penny of its fairly high cost, but that is what I am saying. Yes, it is a bit costly for a mouse, but it is very, very worth it.

UPDATE AFTER 1 YEAR: LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this mouse. Wish I could give it 10 stars. It continues to work seamlessly across a Windows 10 desktop and a Windows 7 business laptop. The battery life is excellent--much better than I remember for my MX Master. Seems to be weeks between charges. Once in a great while the mouse is not recognized by one computer or the other--usually my business laptop--but restarting Logitech Flow usually fixes that quickly. I don't know how I ever got work done using two computers before the this mouse. The ability to copy and paste across screens is amazing (keep in mind that it's two separate computers--not just two separate screens). Sometimes I forget the limitations of this mouse and even think about pulling documents across computers/screens--that's how good it is. ORIGINAL REVIEW: I Iove this mouse! I had been using the Logitech MX Master for about a year on my main (desktop) computer, with an older Logitech Performance Mouse for my work laptop. I usually keep up with accessories, but I only recently read about the MX Master 2S. It seemed to be perfect for my situation, so I ordered it right away, and I was not disappointed! Once I set up Logitech Flow, it's been simple to use the mouse across screens hooked up to two different computers. It's even more seamless than I could have hoped. There are some minor things--when going from my Windows 7 work laptop to my Windows 10 desktop, the mouse leaves a ghost image of the cursor right at the edge of the Windows 7 screen until I go back to that screen. And once in a great while, if one or both computers have been turned off, I have to use the selection button on the bottom of the mouse, but every time, the mouse immediately works across all screens. ONE time only, in about a month of 10-hour days, I had to turn Logitech Flow on my desktop off and then back on again. I can even copy and paste text from one computer to a document (or PDF review) on another computer, and it works every time. I was a little worried because my work laptop is on a VPN, but that seems to have no effect on use of the mouse--when first setting up the mouse, I think VPN had to be disconnected for Logitech Flow to initiate the two-computer set-up, but ONLY to initiate it. It worked seamlessly after that. LOVE this mouse! The battery life seems excellent, and the build quality is the same as the MX Master--it feels good in the hand.

Amazing build quality. Not as quiet as other mice, but pretty silent. The battery lasts about 25 days, and the design is perfect and ergonomic. Good for light gaming and editing/productive work. Super simple to set up, just pair with Bluetooth. And the two scroll wheels are perfect, and the speed is adjustable.

Love this mouse. Don’t want any other. And the app allows me to use across all my computers even from windows to Mac! There is a slight slowness when switch from windows to Mac but nothing to worrisome. Bluetooth works great and seamless when switching from your designated 3 devices.

This works - it was my fault that I didn't check the details before I purchased, and the fact that this is not a USB-C is highly annoying (c'mon Logitech, get with the times!). Otherwise, this works well, the set up was easy, the mouse seems solid (I prefer it not being so lightweight), the buttons all work as expected, and the battery does last for a few weeks.

Logitech Wireless Performance Mouse MX for PC and Mac, Large Mouse, Long Range Wireless Mouse First, i have been using the MX 2S for a couple of weeks now, and I want to start off by saying the MX 2S is a solid device. It is well built and has a solid feel in the hand. Even with the points I make later the device deserves 5 stars to me. I am upgrading to this mouse from a PERFORMANCE MOUSE MX from Logitech. So, there will be some comparison between the two. And over all I am very happy with the upgrade. With two exceptions that I will get to in a min. so let’s start with the good stuff. First and foremost, in my mind is the new software and being able to link the mouse to multiple computers and if set up to be able to use the mouse across 2 computers as if you had a dual monitor set up. This was the main reason I decide to give this mouse a try, and it did not disappoint. The next big reason was the ability to program any button individually as well as set up gestures. This has made my work and gaming much more enjoyable. Getting into more of a comparison now and the slight negatives that I have noticed. These are in my opinion and pertain to how the mouse feels to me. Over all the feel is great and Logitech put out a good design. The downside to this design to me is that the mouse feels heavy. Even knowing that the MX 2S is lighter than my previous PERFORMANCE MOUSE MX mouse, it still feels much heavier to me. I think this is in relation to how well the PERFORMANCE MOUSE MX fit my hand, it was almost effortless. Especially since I do a lot of lifting the mouse in my normal use of it. The new MX 2S because of the new design of the thumb rest makes it easier to access the scroll wheel and buttons but makes it fell less stable in my hand if I lift the mouse. All that means that this is a great tasking mouse especially if you keep it firmly on the desk. The mouse looks great and the options that you have through software are outstanding. And if you like scroll wheels the main wheel is the best feeling and functioning scroll wheel I have used.

My favorite mouse. Connects quick and performs like a dream.

I have been using an original MX Master (which I’ll call MXM for brevity) at the office for the past three years and it is by far my favorite mouse, until the MX Master 2 (though for my uses they are largely the same). Scroll wheels on mice have been a real pain for me in the past, it seems like scroll wheels on every mouse I’ve used prior to the MXM were junk. They were always janky where clicks wouldn’t register, or scrolling just wasn’t smooth. I was talking with a guy at work a few years ago about this and he let me test-drive his MXM for an hour and I loved it, so I immediately purchased one. I have used it with zero problems for the last few years, and I’m still addicted to quickly scrolling through web pages, code files, spreadsheets, etc by using the smooth-as-butter quick scrolling feature. For me the scroll wheel alone is worth the price, but of course it has plenty of other really useful features. At home I was using an MX Anywhere mouse because I travel frequently, so the smaller form-factor is nice. However, it does feel a bit too cramped and when I use it I miss the ergonomics and smooth scrolling. I finally decided to get another MX Master (this one being the MX Master 2). I don’t know why I didn’t buy this sooner! It’s basically the same as the original MXM with a few added features. The MXM 2 supports “Flow” software which allows you to seamlessly use the mouse across multiple computers (up to three) without having to manually change the connection on the bottom of the mouse. You can also copy and paste files across multiple computers, provided you copy/paste by using the mouse itself rather than keyboard shortcuts. The MXM 2 also supports higher resolution (up to 4,000 DPI) and longer battery life. The thumb gesture button on the MXM 2 does feel a slight bit mushier than the original but for me it's easier to click. I see a lot of people complaining about the forward/back thumb buttons being set too far back making them uncomfortable to use, but I have adapted to using them a bit differently. Rather than pulling my thumb back and searching for the correct button I simply keep my thumb in its natural position and rock it up/down, letting the side of my thumb hit the buttons. It only took me a short time to get used to doing it this way, but it feels completely natural. This mouse is super comfortable to use all day long. It is a bit on the larger side so if you have smaller hands then it might not be ideal for you. The MXM really does work on every surface I’ve tested on. My coffee table has a glass top and no other mouse works fluidly on it, except the MXM series. I don’t do much PC gaming outside of playing Civ, which doesn’t require twitch accuracy, but I’ve heard a number of people say it’s not an ideal gaming mouse. I will take their word for it, so if you’re looking for a gaming mouse then I’d do a little more searching around. That being said, for productivity it works flawlessly. Finally, if you have an original MXM and it’s still working well for you then I don’t think it’s worth upgrading unless something like Flow is something you will find really useful.
