After trying the Magic Mouse, various branded Mouses, and a dedicated Trackpad… I have settled with the Logitec MX Master 3, and its accompanying keyboard. I hesitated on spending that much on a mouse for over a year, and as soon as I purchased it, I wished I had bought it earlier! Haven’t looked back since!
I got a MX3 when I had to manage two laptops on my desk and while there are definitely use-cases for which the greater precision is preferable (e.g. graphic editing), I reverted to my Magic Trackpad because I just can’t give up the full multitouch experience; even programming the buttons and rollers on the MX doesn’t give me the same fluidity. But it’s definitely the best mouse I’ve ever laid my hands on.
After trying the trackpad consistently for a month, my hands always felt like they’d done a workout at the end of the day! If I am editing, I might occasionally use the trackpad for the odd gesture… but the mouse is my main weapon of choice
Lol! It’s the opposite for me. Sometimes if I want to rest my hand, I’ll just switch to using my left for a bit, but that’s impossible (or at least, highly impractical) with the MX.
I usually use my Magic trackpad for my Mac when I’m using it in clamshell mode but if my fingers are beginning to cramp I switch over to my MX Master 3 Logitech mouse. I feel like Logitech did great when making that mouse for power users switching between multiple windows and tabs, plus it’s super comfortable to use for hours
Good to see someone else with the Magic Trackpad/MX3 combo!
When I use my mac I use a track pad but I am probably ditching the mac and going back to a PC. So started to use a mouse again.
