So I was wanting to buy a Logitech MX Master 3. Just thought I would see what everyone recommends.
Currently I have a Cooler Master MM 710. Its good for gaming but not for other stuff. I've always liked Logitech Free spin wheel and a
corded mouse but I'm thinking of going wireless. Hopefully they are better now, last time was 10 years ago.

Has anyone owned the Master 2 or 3 ?

Thanks

Recently I found this nifty guide here: https://sensor.fyi for best sensors (supposedly) for mice. Was kinda of surprised that the sensor on the G502 is worse than the G402.

I would suggest looking at it if you care about precision is my take.

If you are using some high refresh monitor you may want to read some reviews first, MX3's polling rate is only 125Hz. Other than that, I think its a good mouse.

Just bought a Logitech G502 on sale. Seems like a pretty good mouse. I'm used to Corsair's mice, but this one seems to track better.

I'm using a MX Master 2 as of posting. I prefer to game with it too other than using G900. I don't like the MX 3 due to where the side buttons are located.

I bought two extra dongles so I can control other computers on a fly with just a touch of a button on the mouse..

I have both the G900 and G903 and they are both GREAT mice. The main difference is that the G900 has to be charged via the cable it came with. Both mice are very responsive. Right now the prices on the G903 are lowered because new mice are coming out.

G502 Lightspeed. Looks like a "gamur" piece of... But it's actually quite a good mouse.

Personally I can't stand the G900 models, way too low profile, gave me terrible RSI.

I went with the G903 from Amazon. $100

That way if I don't like it I can send it back
