Logitech MX Master 4 Review: Premium Productivity Mouse Redefines Office Comfort
Overview
The new Logitech MX Master 4 builds on a two‑decade legacy of premium office mice, adding a haptic motor that mimics phone‑like vibrations and a more durable surface finish. Its price of £119.99 translates to roughly $119.99 or €129.99, positioning it alongside high‑end gaming peripherals and creative‑studio tools.
Design & Build
- Ergonomic shape identical to the 2019 and 2022 models, but limited to right‑hand use.
- Hard‑wearing, easy‑to‑clean materials reduce long‑term grime buildup.
- Eight strategically placed buttons, including a thumb wheel and a new gesture button for window switching.
Key Features
- MagSpeed scroll wheel: magnetic ratchet for line‑by‑line scrolling; a hard flick disengages the magnets for free‑spin mode.
- Haptic actions‑ring: customizable ring of app‑aware shortcuts that provides tactile feedback on press and hover.
- Silent, tactile button clicks that stay under the noise floor of typical office environments.
- Bluetooth 5.1 or Logi Bolt USB connectivity with up to 70 days of battery life on a single charge.
Software Integration
The mouse is managed through Logi Options+, which lets users assign actions to the haptic ring, adjust DPI (200‑8,000), and configure button profiles. Currently only seven plugins are available in the Logi Marketplace, covering Adobe Creative Cloud and Zoom; users of other suites (e.g., Affinity) lack native support.
Specifications
- Dimension: 128.2 × 88.4 × 50.8 mm
- Weight: 150 g
- Connection: Bluetooth 5.1 / Logi Bolt USB
- Battery life: up to 70 days

Verdict
For professionals who value silent operation, extensive customization and a premium feel, the MX Master 4 justifies its £119.99 price tag. Its haptic feedback adds a novel layer of interaction, though broader plugin support will be needed to unlock its full potential across all creative apps.
