Our Verdict
Logitech M720 Triathlon
Logitech MX Master 3S
The Logitech MX Master 3S and the Logitech M720 Triathlon are both productivity mice with ergonomic, right-handed shapes. The MX Master 3S has several features the Triathlon lacks, including a secondary scroll wheel for horizontal scrolling and quieter click buttons. It also uses Logitech's new BOLT USB receiver, while the Triathlon uses the older Unifying USB Receiver. On the other hand, the M720 Triathlon is slightly smaller and more portable. It also uses an AA battery for power, while the MX Master 3S recharges with an included USB cable.
