Our Verdict

Logitech MX Master 2S

Logitech MX Vertical

The Logitech MX Master 2S and the Logitech MX Vertical are both great office mice. The MX Master 2S feels better built, has more programmable buttons, and features a side horizontal wheel, which is great for scrolling sideways through Excel spreadsheets. On the other hand, The MX Vertical's more unique shape is great if you find your wrist gets sore after long days of using your mouse. The MX Master 2S is also large and may not be comfortable for people with small hands.
