If you look at the two side-by-side, the MX Keys is just the Craft without the dial. While Logitech hasn’t published the specific key travel of the MX Keys, I can tell you that it’s well within that zone of what makes an incredibly comfortable keyboard for anyone who is into short-travel typing.Īnd really, it makes sense-the MX Keys’ overall design is basically the same as the Logitech Craft, a premium keyboard with a big ol’ dial on the upper left corner for use with Photoshop and similar software. So, as a result, I find myself preferring soft-touch keyboards with around 1 mm of key travel (for reference, the Pixelbook has 0.8 mm of key travel).

In fact, I generally prefer laptop keyboards, with the Pixelbook packing my favorite keyboard of all time. Too much travel, too much noise, and too little desire to adjust. I often have to deal with some backlash from my peers about that, but it is what it is-I could never get used to them.

I’m going to tell you something that may shock you: I’m not a mechanical keyboard guy. MX Master 3: The Keyboard for the Rest of Us Can a mouse even be sexy? Before the Mid Grey MX Master 3, I would’ve said no. While you can get the mouse in a more traditional Graphite colorway, the Mid Grey model I got for review is freakin’ sexy. That’s neat.įinally, I want to touch on the color for a second. Oh, and if you happen to use the mouse with multiple computers (it can work with up to three at a time), you’ll be happy to know that it has Logitech Flow onboard for instant use and file transfer between multiple machines. So, theoretically, if you throw it on charge one night per week, you should have plenty of battery to get you through even the longest of workweeks afterward.

A one-minute charge will supply three hours of battery life, while a full charge gets the mouse up to 70 hours of use. Gone is the dated micro USB charging port, which has been replaced with a much-needed USB-C port. One of the most significant improvements on the Master 3 comes in an unexpected place, however: the charging port.

No upgrade there, but one wasn’t really warranted either-it’s as good as any high-quality mouse out there for anything outside of gaming. Left: MX Master 1 Right: MX Master 3 Cameron SummersonĪs for the sensor, the Master 3 is packing the same 4,000 DPI Darkfield sensor as the 2S, which works on pretty much any surface. The gesture button and also still present on the bottom of the mouse, and it’s still fully customizable using the Logitech Options software. Otherwise, the thumbwheel is larger, and the back/forward buttons have been moved below it for better accessibility-instead of being in an awkward arrow pattern beside the thumbwheel, they’re now below it. But it’s also buttery-smooth even for short scrolls. I’m not sure how often you need that sort of scrolling power, but by God, it’s there when you do. That means both the main wheel and the thumbwheel are smoother, faster, and generally just better. According to Logitech, you can scroll 1,100 lines in one second with the new MagSpeed wheel. The biggest change with the Master 3 is the scroll wheels, which now use electromagnets. It still feels pretty similar, but as soon as you put your hand on it, you can tell it’s just better.īut that’s not even the best part. The original Master was ergonomic enough to help prevent RSI (repetitive stress injury), but the Master 3 takes that up another level. The case of the mouse has been redesigned, so it has a better overall feel.

And while the MX Master 2S was a nice little update from the original Master, it wasn’t enough to warrant picking up a new mouse (at least in my opinion). It’s a fantastic ergonomic and comfortable mouse that packs most of the features one could want from a mouse. I’ve been using the original MX Master for at least a few years now. MX Master 3: The Perfect Mouse Made Perfecter Both aesthetically and ergonomically, it’s clear that this pair was designed to go together.īut, for simplicity, we’re going to look at each component individually. And while you can use either one by itself-the MX Keys keyboard can easily be paired with any other mouse, and the MX Master 3 can sit alongside your favorite keyboard no problem-they’re perfect for each other.
