Our Verdict
Logitech MX Master 3
Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Mouse
The Logitech MX Master 3 and the Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Mouse are both mice designed for office use, but the Logitech performs better overall. It feels better built and more comfortable, thanks to its thumb rest and high back for palm support. It has a thumb wheel for horizontal scrolling, and its scroll wheel unlocks for free scrolling. Also, it's Bluetooth compatible. On the other hand, the Microsoft is more portable and uses two AA batteries for power. However, its companion software isn't available on macOS, and it doesn't have as many customization options.
