If there is a mouse that has managed to position yourself as a reference in this segment, that is the Logitech MX Master. This peripheral manufacturer found the perfect formula in a device that managed to combine ergonomics and benefits almost impeccably already in its first version, launched ten years ago.
And we say “almost” because in Logitech it was launching successive somewhat improved versions. He Logitech MX Master 2S (2017) improved the sensor resolution up to 4,000 DPI. Then they would arrive MX Master 3 (2019) with some changes in buttons and wheel, and the MX MASTER 3S (2022), with 8,000 dpi sensor and quieter clicks. The design, with tiny differences, never changed.
That inheritance also remains in the new Logitech MX Master 4the last iteration of this mouse that maintains that format, which is slightly more bulky somewhat heavier (150 g compared to 141 of its predecessor) but above all has a unique novelty.
An haptic sensor that wants to give a lot of play
It is an haptic engine located in the area where the thumb reposes – we remember, this is a mouse for right -handed. Thanks to this “haptic panel” we will notice that type of response if for example we click that area, which will also launch a small on -screen tool “ACTIONS RING” (“Ring of Actions”).
That is the “Ring of Actions” that we will see on screen when “click” on the haptic sensor with the thumb.
We can associate any shortcut to that Actions ringsand we can even explore complex shortcuts consistent in a chain of actions. To use these options, yes, we will have to make the most of the company’s own software, called Logi Options Plus.
It is also possible to receive a haptic response when certain types of simple actions are detected. For example, The sensor can vibrate slightly if we pass from one window to anotherwhich will help us realize more quickly where the mouse pointer or cursor is.
That is the fundamental difference of a mouse that It is essence an MX Master 3s with that new haptic sensor. There are some small changes, such as the fact that the receiver included in the Windows model is USB-C and not USB-A.
In everything else it is practically identical to its predecessor, and we retain both the resolution of 8,000 DPI and the Magspeed wheel – disappointments of up to 1,000 lines per second – and the buttons and the rest of the design elements. As in the whole family, this is a perfect mouse for large users and those who like the hand to rest on the mouse.
If you are looking for a mouse of guarantees, it is certainly a fantastic product, but if you already had a previous model it is likely that the update does not make so much sense. The good news, yes, is that the price has not risen. In fact it has dropped slightly.
Thus, the new Logitech MX Master 4 It is available for 129.99 euroswhen the launch price of its predecessor was 135 euros. Good news for potential buyers. I keep enduring With my MX Master of First Generationwhich certainly says a lot about the durability of the product.
