I encountered problems Logitech resolved with a software update published July 3, 2018. Granted, some have observed Bluetooth connectivity issues mating the MX Master 2S to 2017-model MacBook Pros.

With a long-lasting battery (I’ve used it almost every day for almost a month and it still has more than a 50% charge), it’s hard to find complaint. Packing six buttons mated to flexible Logitech Options software that enables setting-specific and even custom configurations, the mouse makes it easy to customize specific buttons to perform such actions as open Mission Control, call up Launchpad, and raise and lower audio volume.

Instead, I sought dongle-free Bluetooth connectivity mated with a better ergonomic fit, and the MX Master 2S mouse delivers ( Figure B). Make no mistake–the MX Master 2S is not dainty, but I didn’t want a small device. SEE: Hardware purchasing task list (Tech Pro Research) And the mouse’s physically larger shape better fits my hand, as I suspect is true for others who find it difficult to grasp and manipulate the smaller, more streamlined Apple Magic Mouse 2. Logitech’s Bluetooth mouse connects directly to compatible Macs without needing any dongle or adapter.

I like the model so much I bought two: One for the house and one for the office. Hearing I was seeking a larger mouse, a colleague recommended Logitech’s MX Master 2S mouse ( Figure A). However, the often default solution, Apple’s Magic Mouse 2, hasn’t met with overwhelming reviews. The mouse is a critical input tool, yet many Mac users merely deploy the standard Apple device.
