Hey tribe, Looking for buying mouse, many reviews are suggesting to go for Logitech Mx Master 3 but I think they were launched in 2019, feels like old. But few are saying it is still worth in 2021. Need help and input. Thanks
k
2 years isn't old for computer peripherals. Go for it.

Thanks @kind-queen-6796 πŸ₯³ Just another question, can we do light gaming on it? Not mandatory feature but good to have πŸ˜…
k
Yeah you can.

Evoluent Vertical Mouse V4 If you're on Big Sur, their driver software isn't ready and you may not able to customise it fully, but it works as a regular mouse and is amazing.

Thanks Looks so cool 😎 , but I was searching for wireless options. Vertical mouse are cool, interesting.

Logitech Hyperion is a good one I use regularly (wired though)

I have horrible experience getting the lghub software to work on mac smoothly. Now within 2 years my lg 502 has started giving double click issues

For me, wireless is a big no for both Keyboard and Mouse. I need them to be ultra-reliable

Some wireless options have both modes, like the keychron series.

I use the keychron keyboard, k2v2 it’s really nice.

MX Master 3 is a flawed mouse. There are lots of posts and complaints on this. I got it and returned it. It's terrible for gaming. if that's your budget, I'd suggest going for a Razer viper ultimate.

I don't understand the hype either. Most people don't need side scroll. Except tech reviewers.
v
I need side scroll all the time

What do you do?
I can see designers needing it.

Side scroll is a boon for me. I didn't realize how productive it is before moving to using MX Master 3. ✨ Edit: Software Dev here.

I'm curious, where do you need it?
v
Primarily these two: Spreadsheets and browsing large diagrams
k
Thanks for the inputs y’all. @gorgeous-tent-29765 do you have any custom key bindings to your MX Master 3 that will help your workflow? Thanks

After getting a controller I realised how bad keyboard-mouse combo is for gaming. Get a normal mouse for your work and if you are into gaming get a controller.

Thanks got it.

@kind-france-68039 -- I haven't set up any custom bindings on the mouse yet. The thumb button in Arch+i3 cycles between my workspaces by default.
