Introduction

The Logitech MX Master 3S (model number 910-006559/910-006565) is the latest iteration in Logitech’s flagship line of performance mice. Promising an unparalleled scrolling experience and precision tracking, I’ve put it through its paces over the last few weeks to see if it lives up to the hype. From demanding photo editing sessions to marathon gaming stretches, this review will delve into every aspect of this premium mouse.

Features

The MX Master 3S boasts a compelling list of features. The standout is undoubtedly the electromagnetic MagSpeed scroll wheel. Logitech claims it’s the fastest and quietest scrolling wheel ever, and I found this to be largely true. The near-silent operation is a welcome change, and the speed is incredibly impressive, making navigating large documents or websites a breeze. The Darkfield sensor, allowing high-precision tracking on virtually any surface, is another key feature. I tested it on everything from my glass desk to a rough wooden table, and the tracking remained flawlessly accurate. The intuitive thumb controls and customizable profiles round out a feature set that clearly prioritizes productivity and user comfort.

Performance

In terms of performance, the MX Master 3S excels. The MagSpeed scroll wheel truly revolutionizes the scrolling experience. Switching between hyper-fast free-spinning and precise click-to-click mode is seamless. The Darkfield sensor is consistently reliable, even on challenging surfaces. During my testing, I experienced no lag or tracking issues, even during fast-paced gaming sessions. The battery life is also excellent; I consistently went weeks without needing to recharge. However, the slightly high price point could be a deterrent for some users. The size and weight, while contributing to the sturdy build quality, might feel too large for users with smaller hands.

Pros & Cons

  • Pros: MagSpeed scroll wheel, Darkfield sensor, comfortable design, customizable profiles, excellent battery life, sturdy build.
  • Cons: High price point, size might be unsuitable for smaller hands.

Final Verdict

The Logitech MX Master 3S (910-006559/910-006565) is a premium mouse that delivers on its promises. The MagSpeed scroll wheel and Darkfield sensor are game-changers, offering a level of precision and speed I haven’t experienced before. While the price is a consideration, the overall quality, performance, and longevity make it a worthwhile investment for power users who value productivity and comfort. I highly recommend it for professionals, designers, and gamers who demand the best.
