Our Verdict

Logitech M240

Logitech MX Anywhere 3S

The Logitech M240 and the Logitech MX Anywhere 3S are compact wireless mice. The M240 is much more basic and uses an AA battery for power. On the other hand, the MX Anywhere 3S recharges with a USB receiver and has much more extensive productivity features, including programmable side buttons, a scroll wheel with a free-scrolling mode, support for gesture commands, and multi-device pairing with up to three devices simultaneously.
