Why we like it

The MX Master 4 iterates on the most-recommended productivity mouse there is. It keeps the sculpted ergonomic shape, MagSpeed electromagnetic scroll wheel, thumb wheel and Darkfield 8000 DPI tracking (even on glass), and adds haptic feedback plus a clickable Actions Ring for context menus. It pairs with three devices over Bluetooth or Logi Bolt, charges over USB-C and runs for weeks per charge with Logi Options+ customization.

  • 8000 DPI Darkfield sensor
  • MagSpeed electromagnetic scroll
  • Haptic feedback + Actions Ring
  • Bluetooth / Logi Bolt (3 devices)
