Logitech MX Master 3 vs Magic Mouse 2

I tried. I read all the reviews online.

Everyone was singing the praises of the Logitech MX Master 3 mouse.

But, it hurt my brain. 🤕

What Do I Use My Computer For?

I use my computer to run a small business, manage blogs, surf the web, edit images in Apple Photos app, and do some spreadsheet work. Oh, and I write. I love to write in the Ulysses app.

Too Many Options on The Master

I don’t need all the options the MX Master 3 offers. I also don’t edit video or images all day. I may not be the target audience for their product.

There are buttons everywhere that I don’t need. I just don’t need them. I found this out by purchasing the Logitech MX Master 3 for Mac and trying it at home. The additional buttons added too much noise. And, me no likey noise. The simplicity of the Apple magic mouse always worked fine for me.

Wasn’t Real Crazy About The Master 3 Scroll

I didn’t like how the Master scrolled. It’s that simple.

No scroll for you!

I’m Ok With Magic Mouse Streamline Design

I have never had an issue with the design of the Apple Magic Mouse 2. The streamlined curve works good in my hands.

I know some people choose a different mouse because of pain in their arm.

I would recommend changing your diet and/or taking more breaks. Inflammation in your arm could be from food and sitting too long. Just saying. 🙀

Single Finger Swipe on Magic Mouse

I love the single finger swipe on the magic mouse that allows me to go back a webpage when surfing. It works well.

I also use the single finger swipe on the magic mouse to swipe away sidebars in macOS Big Sur in the Ulysses app. It also works quite well.

There Is That Apple Love and Feeling

Apple products have a feeling that can’t be replicated. Yes, there is always the exception to the rule.

But, for the most part their accessories have always had a touch that just feels good. A click that is like a firm marshmallow cloud.

And, their stuff usually last a really long time.

Apple Magic Mouse 2 Charging

Who the hell chose the location of the charging port? Was that done on a Friday at 4:59pm?

This would be my only knock on the mouse.

Otherwise, it’s an absolute joy to use.
