What reviewers say
The RTINGS.com review praises the MX Master 4 for its superb build quality, ergonomic design, and productivity‑focused features such as dual scroll wheels, a gesture button, and a haptic context menu. It notes that the mouse is ideal for work but not suited to competitive gaming due to higher click latency, sensor limitations, and a fixed 125 Hz polling rate.

The Verge review acknowledges the new haptic feedback feature on the Logitech MX Master 4 as a pleasant but largely optional addition that requires heavy use of Logitech’s software. The author notes that the mouse retains many strengths of its predecessor—ergonomic design, quiet clicks, solid battery life and a great scroll wheel—and argues that it is worth buying over the older MX Master 3S only if the haptics or the new Action Ring functionality are important to the user. Otherwise, upgrading may not be necessary.

The How‑To Geek review praises the MX Master 4 for its subtle but impactful refinements over previous models. The reviewer highlights the new haptic engine that delivers a satisfying click feel, the addition of an extra programmable action button (which can be used for shortcuts like Mission Control), improved material that resists staining, and a 70‑day battery life. While noting the $20 price premium compared to the MX Master 3, the reviewer finds the upgrades justify the cost for users who appreciate the enhanced ergonomics and new features.

The Tom’s Guide review calls the Logitech MX Master 4 an evolutionary upgrade of its predecessor that retains the proven performance, premium build quality, and extensive customization options that made earlier models popular. The reviewer praises its strong battery life, comfort for long‑hand sessions, and overall value despite a higher price point, while noting that some new features—such as the haptic feedback and plastic finish—feel gimmicky or less pleasant than before.

Our take
Based on 7 reviews
Six of seven reviews praise the MX Master 4’s ergonomics, build quality, and 70-day battery life, with PCMag awarding five stars. However, The Verge and Tom’s Guide dismiss the new haptic features as gimmicky, arguing upgrades from the MX Master 3S are unnecessary unless those specific functions are desired.
The split centers on whether the haptics and Action Ring justify the price. RTINGS deems the 125 Hz polling rate and click latency unsuitable for competitive gaming, while PCMag and How-To Geek see them as cost-justifying. Buyers prioritizing productivity may find it worth the premium, but those needing gaming performance or upgrading from the 3S without needing these features should look elsewhere.
Pros
- Superior ergonomic design praised by six outlets
- Versatile MagSpeed scroll wheel with haptic feedback
- 70-day battery life reported by How-To Geek
- Excellent build quality and quiet operation
Cons
- Unsuitable for competitive gaming due to latency
- Haptic features considered optional or gimmicky by some
- High price point compared to previous models
Best for: Productivity-focused users who value ergonomics and new haptic features; gamers should look at other options.
