    Logitech's MX Master is a... masterpiece. Never had a more comfortable mouse. It's wireless and can be used wired while charging. ★★★★★

      Do you use your MX Master via bluetooth by chance? I'm on the fence with getting one... But I've heard poor reviews from people using the RF dongle on windows, and bluetooth on macs...

        I use the dongle-thingy on OS X, Bluetooth works most of the time, but not every time.

        I use it with bluetooth at work and the dongle at home. Until a recent update I would have to keep adding it as a new device. But it's been fine for about 2 months now.

        Bluetooth works very well as long as I do not switch between different computers. Every other time I try to reconnect with my MacBook via Bluetooth after I used it on a different machine I does not work. But needs to be paired again.

      I love it too, but do you have any issues with how far back the left side buttons are? I have pretty smalls hands and I would still love them moved forward half an inch or so. Other than that, yes it's an absolutely outstanding mouse. I switch computers so the multiple connections was a clincher for me.

      I reluctantly got the MX Master, as I couldn't find a good wired mouse. For the most part, it works well. I do find it to be 99% as reliable as a wired mouse, and I do have to charge it. I wish they made the same model, with a cable. That said, it generally works well.
