Logitech is apparently planning to refresh its MX Master series with the MX Master 4, which appears to feature a number of changes compared to the MX Master 3S, although there has so far been no confirmation that the MX Master will solve the most common complaint about the MX Master 3S—the low 125 Hz polling rate. The most recent leak of the MX Master 4 comes directly from Logitech, with a mention of the upcoming productivity mouse on the brand's "Best Mice for Students" page (and a few other similar round-ups) confirming other recent leaks that suggested the updated design was in development. Unfortunately the original pages have since been edited to remove the mention of the MX Master 4, but there are screenshots on Reddit and Caschy's Blog.

More detailed leaks showed up on the r/Logitech subreddit recently, replete with high-resolution product images of the MX Master 4. Compared to the MX Master 3S that came before it, the MX Master 4 seems to mostly have the same shape, with a few tweaks to the design that should make it easier to use. For starters, the gesture button on the thumb shelf is now highlighted with a ring of small white dots, and there is an extra thumb button on the left side of the mouse, in front of the back and forward buttons. If the leaks are true, this would bring the total number of buttons to eight, including middle click and the scroll wheel unlock button. The MX Master 4 so far also looks to feature the same magnetic scroll wheel and thumb scroll functionality—both of which have earned it a reputation among productivity users. The biggest questions that still remain about the MX Master 4, though, are regarding the sensor, weight, and polling rate, since there are now mice from brands like Ugreen and Keychron that offer similar ergonomics and free-scroll functionality in lighter shells with gaming-grade sensors and up to 8 kHz polling.

I don't like the way there is no blank island around the scroll wheel (which helps for not accidentally clicking on anything while scrolling). Other than that, cool. :)
 
I absolutely love the MX 3 and I'll most likely will be upgrading to this mouse as well for work.
 
Logitech G604 successor when?
 
I like that, If i didnt have G502 protus and spare one I would so by that look like it has 2 extra thumb buttons one this huge so should be great I dont like where big thumb button is on g502 protus
 
I hope that they changed the coating to be more resistant to sweat and sebum. The Master 3(S) looks ugly after a few months of use and the wear is permanent.
 
Hopefully it is using optical switches, also want to know what functions those dots in thumb area does.

Logitech G604 successor when?
That 604 lacked DPI indicators which 602 had, so whatever comes to replace 604 it hopefully will upgrade to optical switches and brings back DPI indicators while reducing weight(sub 100gms would be great).

Left Handed version and all of us will be happy.
They recently seem to have added left handed version of their lift, so its possible atleast on ergo series they will be supporting both right and left handed versions.

Bro I've been using G604 for office works. Can't find better mouse. There's no news about successor model

Same boat here. G604 and there's nothing on the market that could be considered direct or even a spiritual successor:
Gaming grade sensor, AA powered, many side buttons and free flywheel plus side to side scrolling.

There are similar mice like Razer Naga or G502 X Lightspeed, but not exactly the same as they all have something missing.
FFS Logitech. People keep asking for a successor to G604. Make it!

604 lacks individual DPI indicator, but the indicator light changes color depending on the DPI so i dont really miss individual lights.
Newer switches that are not prone to double-clicking and weight reduction would be nice too.

Absolutely agree, that safe stop zone is essential in application where I use scroll a loath and fast (zoom in out)

I use MX3
Only complain for MX3 is maybe the rubbery coating, gets dirty.

And why they don't let us use it with the cable connected, no wireless mode.
 
One hour ago I've changed the MX 3S at work with an Aqirys Zephyr because the MX weighs a freakin' ton and the scroll sucks.
 
I really wish they would make something like the G502X but with the MX Master's scroll wheel. The MX Master just feels too sluggish for me, I have basically been using the G502X for work instead....
 
I switched to using the Razer Basilisk V3 Pro it's far superior to the Logitech MX Master 3s.

I doubt, their ergo series seem to be right handed only. I hope you are right and I'm wrong but ...

You are not taking into account the thumb scroll and battery charge, Basilisk doesn't have it that scroll is one of the main selling points of that mouse.

I agree with you only that the Logitech MX Master 3s battery lasts much longer than the Razer Basilisk V3 Pro, but the Razer Basilisk V3 Pro has the same scroll wheel as the Logitech MX Master 3s
:D

Atleast for Lift there are both left and right handed versions available.

I know but MX and Ergo series don't.

Kind of, I still think the scroll wheel of MX Master 3s is better than Basilisks V3 Pro, also is cheaper, so will depend on customer's perspective.

I have Basilisk V3 (wired) and MX Master 3s and I love both.
