If you roll the wheel slowly, you’ll feel a friction in the wheel that keeps the scrolling slow, and it will act like expected: scrolling just a few lines or pages at a time.

The particularity with the scroll wheel, for which Logitech gave the fancy name MagSpeed wheel, is the way it works when scrolling long documents (say a 100 pages PDF file). The charging port is a USB C type, and a USB A to USB C cable is provided in the box. Unlike Apple, Logitech figured out that the charging port should be on the front of the mouse, not under it, so you can use the mouse even while charging it. My experience with the mouse so far shows that Logitech is quite correct with their predictions, the red light is up after almost three months of usage. You can recharge it for one minute to get another three hours of usage, in case you need it.

The MX Master 3 has a built-in non-accessible battery that offers up to 70 days of usage on a full charge. And I can switch the mouse between the 3 computers with a single press of that button under the mouse.

The Mac Pro is dual boot with Mac OS Mojave and Windows 10, and both OS are very stable using the Unifying dongle.

To solve this, I used a third Unifying receiver (the one that probably came with the Logitech M705 mouse) on the Mac Pro, paired the mouse to it, and it worked as expected.

I looked at Logitech’s web site for an answer, and realized the mouse requires Bluetooth low energy, which the Mac Pro does not support. I tried to connect the Mac Pro with the mouse using Bluetooth, but the computer was not seeing the mouse at all. Just to be geeky a little bit more, I tried to connect the MX mouse to a third computer it can, so why not! I selected an older Mac Pro 5,1 (the older tower style Mac Pro) as a candidate for that test. I connected the Unifying dongle that came with the MX Master 3 to a USB A port on the mini, paired the mouse with it, and everything worked as expected, since the Mac is seeing this as a directly connected device. If you have FileVault enabled, we recommend using the provided USB receiver to use your keyboard. When enabled, it might prevent Bluetooth® devices from connecting with your computer if you have not yet logged in. I finally found on Logitech’s web site that the culprit is FileVault as explained in the text below:įileVault is an encryption system available on some Mac computers. I searched a while to understand why Apple’s devices (mouse or keyboard) would work with Bluetooth before logging-in, but not Logitech’s devices. The same does not happen with the Apple Magic Mouse that works at any point in the boot process.

When logged in macOS, the mouse worked just fine using Bluetooth. The problem I had was that the mouse was unresponsive in the boot process up to the user selection screen. On my Mac mini I initially used Bluetooth to pair the mouse to the computer. For the Windows Computer, this setup worked flawlessly.

I was already using the Windows PC with an Unifying receiver for the K360 keyboard and M705 mouse, so I paired the MX Master 3 with it. The magic lies in that push button under the mouse that lets you select which of the three computers (or Unifying dongle) the mouse will work with. The MX Master 3 mouse can connect to multiple USB receivers or Bluetooth enabled computers. The Unifying dongle can also connect multiple Logitech’s compatible devices to a single USB A port, saving ports on your computer. Logitech’s Unifying receiver is another way to connect the mouse to a computer that, for instance, does not have Bluetooth or has an incompatible Bluetooth version for the mouse.

If you want to move the peripheral to another computer, you have to disable the current pairing and re-pair it with the new computer. The disadvantage of a Bluetooth only peripheral is that it can only pair to a single computer at a time. The MX Master 3 can be connected to a computer using the bundled USB Unifying receiver, or Bluetooth.

That is where the MX Master 3 attracted my attention. I thought it would be cool to use the same mouse that can connect wirelessly to the two computers. My personal computer is a Mac mini 2018 with an Apple Magic Keyboard, Apple Magic Trackpad and Magic Mouse, while my Windows computer is paired with a Logitech M705 mouse and a K360 keyboard. I tended to have two desks side by side with each computer having its own mouse and keyboard. I’ve been using a Mac for my personal usage and a Windows PC for my work for many years.
