The MX Master 4 is the mouse to buy if you sit at a desk for most of the day and want one tool that handles documents, browsers and creative apps. Logitech keeps the parts that made the MX Master line popular: a MagSpeed wheel that switches between ratchet and free-spin scrolling, a thumb wheel for horizontal scrolling, and a Darkfield sensor that tracks on glass from 200 to 8,000 DPI. New for this model is a Haptic Sense Panel that gives a short pulse for actions such as snapping objects to a grid or switching desktops, and an Actions Ring that brings shortcuts to the cursor. Logitech cites its own 2025 lab study of 37 users for a claimed time saving of up to 33%, so treat that as a vendor figure. The 650 mAh battery is rated for 70 days. The downsides are size and weight: at 150 g and 128 mm long, it is a desk mouse first, and it costs $119.99.
