Logitech's MX Master 3S hits a 2026 low at $89.99, and the MX Master 4 still isn't worth the $30 upgrade
The 2022 flagship matches its lowest tracked price of 2026, making the new model's haptic feedback hard to justify for most buyers.

Logitech's MX Master 3S wireless mouse is back to $89.99 at Amazon as of June 11, 2026, matching the lowest price The Verge's deal tracker has recorded all year. The sale lands on a 2022 design that still does the work most people need from a productivity mouse, and it makes the newer MX Master 4 harder to justify at $119.99.
The 3S is a refinement of Logitech's long-running MX Master formula rather than a reinvention, and that is part of the appeal at this price. The signature thumb scroll wheel handles horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets and wide timelines, a small feature that pays for itself the first time someone has to move sideways through a financial model. The mouse pairs over Bluetooth or via the included USB-A 2.4GHz receiver and works on Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, and Linux without platform-specific gating. Six buttons are remappable through Logi Options Plus, the clicks are quiet enough for shared offices, and the USB-C port supports pass-through charging, so the mouse stays usable while it tops up.
The MX Master 4, Logitech's current flagship, costs roughly $30 more than the sale price of the 3S, a gap that The Verge's coverage describes as $30 off the standard MSRP. Its main addition is haptic feedback on the thumb rest, a tactile nudge that some users will appreciate and most will stop noticing within a day. For buyers who do not already know they want haptics, that $30 buys a feature rather than a performance upgrade.
The 3S does carry one realistic caveat. Logitech advertises roughly 70 days of battery life, a figure that runs shorter in mixed real-world use. The mouse still lasts long enough that charging habits are a non-issue for most workflows, and USB-C passthrough means a low battery does not mean a dead workday. Anyone weighing the 3S against the 4 should set expectations accordingly: a week or two between charges is normal, not the multi-month stretch the marketing copy implies.
At $89.99, the MX Master 3S is a deal that holds up against its own successor. The thumb wheel, the platform support, the quiet clicks, and the charging flexibility are the same features that made the line a default recommendation in the first place. The MX Master 4's haptics are a real addition, not a gimmick, but they do not bridge a $30 gap for buyers who already know what they want from a mouse. The smarter call for most readers is to save the $30, put it toward something else, and let the 3S keep doing the job it has been doing since 2022.
