Hi all. I am wondering what people use for wireless mouse? I am looking at the Logitech MX Master 2s and the Logitech M705. They both seem to get good reviews.

Also what are your thoughts on the Magic Mouse 2?

Thanks!

I have the MX Master 2S and it's my favourite bluetooth mouse to date. I prefer it to apple's magic mouse which I find cramps my hand a fair bit.

Do you have any issues with the scroll wheel or connecting via Bluetooth? I like to purchase this mouse but these 2 issues are giving me pause not to. Other than that it seems to be a good mouse.

No issues at all with the scroll wheel or connecting via bluetooth.

MX Master 2 FTW!!! Once you use for a few days, it's impossible to go back. Magic Mouse 2 is piss poor ergonomically in comparison.

i like apple's magic mouse,i use it very well
I can’t seem to get on with it! Have been using it now for about 2 years and have finally order the Logitech MX Master. I just find the Apple one very ‘un-ergonomic’ - it doesn’t sit in my hand very well, and by far my biggest annoyance is that I’m constantly accidentally horizontally scrolling on things like spreadsheets when I didn’t mean to!

Be sure to do your research on the Logitech MX Master series before purchasing. Whole lot of complaints about it dropping connection, etc. I have the first version for my work Macbook Pro 2016. The mouse is anything but smooth with Bluetooth or with the included usb dongle. Pointer is jumpy, jerky, etc. I would not buy it again for a Mac.

The Magic Mouse 2 is butter smooth but it turns my hand into a dragon claw shape after using it for a while. Basically the epitome of Apple's philosophy of form over function.

Try "SteerMouse". Or... "USB Overdrive".
