Обзор Logitech MX Master 2S

MX Master 2S имеет типичную компоновку с левой и правой кнопками, а между ними расположено колесо прокрутки. Кроме того, Logitech имеет квадратную кнопку за верхним колесом прокрутки, а также две кнопки «вперед» и «назад» на стороне большого пальца мыши с колесиком для прокрутки из стороны в сторону. 

The model we tested was graphite, it’s also available in light grey and midnight teal colors. The top of the mouse is coated in a rubberized plastic with a grippy matte feel. The sides are a smooth, semi-glossy plastic while the thumb rest is a faceted version of the rubberized plastic found on the top of the mouse. 

The Logitech MX Master 2S isn’t a dedicated gaming mouse, but it doesn’t lack in the precision department. It features Logitech’s “Ultimate” laser technology with a Dots Per Inch (a measure of sensitivity) range between 200 DPI and 4000 DPI, which can be adjusted in increments of 50 DPI using Logitech’s software. 

We tested the mouse out on multiple surfaces and didn’t experience any issues, whether it was a hardwood desk or glass-topped desk. Logitech does note that while the mouse works with glass desks, the glass needs to be at least 4mm thick. We did occasionally notice hiccups when using it with glass that had scratches on it, but we didn’t notice any latency issues with the mouse, regardless of whether we were using it with the receiver or via Bluetooth.

Logitech has two programs that work alongside the Logitech MX Master 2S mouse: Logitech Options and Logitech Flow.

Logitech Options is available for both Windows and macOS computers. Once downloaded and installed, it gives complete control over every button and function the mouse has to offer. We were able to change what the two side buttons controlled, switch the left and right mouse click, and adjust the sensitivity all from within the program. 

Logitech lists the MX Master 2S for $99.99 (MSRP). Just shy of $100 is a bit much for a mouse, but considering it’s the most-used peripheral used to navigate any computer (aside from a keyboard) it’s important to get one that’s ergonomically sound to prevent any long-term strain injuries. Considering this mouse is likely going to outlast any computer you’re using it with, $100 is a small price to pay for long-term value. 

The Logitech MX Master 2S is the flagship mouse in Logitech’s MX lineup and with good reason; it offers a premium build with top-notch features in a beautiful package. Without getting into gaming mice, Logitech doesn’t have much competition, especially in its top-tier price range. That said, there are two much more affordable options that feature somewhat similar designs and features: the AmazonBasics Ergonomic Wireless Mouse and Logitech’s own M720 Triathlon mouse. 

The AmazonBasics Ergonomic Wireless Mouse is your basic wireless mouse with a slightly more ergonomic design and a few additional buttons. It features fast scrolling, has a 2.4GHz wireless receiver like the MX Master 2S, and has two buttons on the thumb-side of the mouse. However, it can only be connected to one device, requires two AA batteries to operate, and features a resolution of just 1600 DPI, compared to the 4000 DPI of the MX Master 2S. At just $29.99, it’s a much more affordable option if you don’t care for all of the extra fancy features. 

The second option is Logitech’s own M720 Triathlon. This mouse is a little less ergonomic than the MX Master 2S, runs on a single AA battery, and isn’t nearly as flashy in terms of materials or design. It features hyper-fast scrolling, connectivity for up to three devices, and uses Logitech Flow to transfer content from one computer to another. The M720 Triathlon comes in at half the price of the MX Master 2S at $49.99, so if you don’t mind trading a little comfort and a few features, it might be worth considering.
