      polling rate has nothing to do with refresh rate of monitor, same goes for disabling acceleration, don't do this on a mac.
      use the magic mouse, there is nothing out there comparable, this software and hardware is very sophisticated. you just brought a "mind virus" from the pc world over to mac.
      mac acceleration is supreme and useful, if you use 1 monitor or 6 it's a breeze.
      what the other mices lack is the whole multitouch world on which the mac is build on.
      but forget all of this, nobody ever uses a macbook with a mouse, the trackpad is better period
      the more you use it and the more you learn how to use it the faster you will get, it is absolutely not like a windows laptop where a mouse is basically mandatory because the trackpads, while improved a lot on the hardware side, still suck ass on the software side and will so for another decade is my guess.
      to test a mouse you have to use it for 3 months at least till your muscles adapt, almost everybody misses right there.
      don't use pointer modification software or acceleration modification software, they all are terrible and ruin everything by slowing down everything.
      my tip is to deactivate touch click and enable triple drag.
      there is a lot to learn and to adapt to, which takes time, for your muscles and your brain.

    Recently got the Logitech M650. Comes with side buttons, silent click, Bluetooth, a magnetic scroll wheel (which is different from and not as crappy as the MX3S), a battery instead of charging, grippy side texture, and gestures while holding the middle button. Snagged it for $18 in a sale and couldn't be more happy. In fact, I like it more than my MX2S due to its size and weight.

For me, it has always felt the same.
    This video got me really interested in getting a Keychron M3 for gaming (which I've been doing more and more on my Mac, and is the ONE thing the Magic Mouse is actually terrible for).

      Performance is OK with a dongle, not as good as on my Windows machine, but not bad either.
      And btw it isn't lag per se, but input latency. It doesn't stutter or skip frames, it just isn't 1:1 with my hand motion. And btw that applies to my experience with the magic mouse as well, which, on top of having the input latency also has a terrible sensor.
      I know several people who swear by that mouse, and at this point I am not sure if people who have used Macs for years and decades now just have low standards for mouse performance or is it me who's just too picky. We don't all have the same expectations.
      No mouse I ever tried on Mac, matches my experience on Windows where the input latency is so small that it's as good as non-existent, and yes I have tried even my fast gaming mouse which is better than the MX Master 3 but not as good as it should be. The trackpad is awesome (the ones on Windows laptops usually suck) but I do need a mouse sometimes.
      But once again, the dongle performance is fine with me, it's the bluetooth performance that's terrible.

    a) The weight -its just too heavy
    b) The forward-backward buttons don't work with Safari (or maybe they do, I never cared about installing the Logi software)
    Also, one thing that no one mentions about the magic mouse is the feet that it uses to slide/ glide on surfaces - they tend to attract dirt and become sticky more frequently than any other mouse that I have ever tried, so much so that the mouse becomes annoying to use unless you wipe it with a damp cloth every other day.

    I have the MX Master 3. And as a Software Dev, I don't want to live without the Scroll Wheel of the MX Master anymore. I have to Scroll a lot through masses of Code and the Scroll Wheel of the MX Master is the best I ever experienced on a mouse so far.

    I agree with the MX Master mouse! Tried both MX master and MX anywhere, and it was so laggy on my macbook air even when using the dongle. I settled with the g304 and it was the best mouse for me. Downside is it does not have a bluetooth connection.

    I went through a similar journey, and in the end it was the Logitech Anywhere 3S that got me. It's a tiny tiny bit too small, but the logitech masters were just HUGE. It's small, rechargeable (via usb 3), bluetooth, works with three devices, and doesn't have endless buttons and scroll wheels on every surface.

    I have two MX Master 3S and they’re always connected via Bluetooth to Macs. I’ve never had any connection issues. It could be interference from other devices but I assume that would affect other mice too.
    I used to use a Razer Basilisk via Bluetooth and that did have lag from time to time, especially when I joined video calls.

    1:17 That was a cool trick. Also I found myself using mac's trackpad rather than mx master 2 mouse. It's absolutely great for my workflow as a designer, the only con is that 3 finger drag is not applied to the layers sometimes so you have to click on the trackpad and drag the layer so the changes are saved.

    The reasons I can’t switch away from the Magic Mouse are because of the swipe gestures and fluid directional scrolling when I’m working in Figma. It’s the hybridization of mouse and trackpad that is so useful for not having to take your fingers off the mouse, a big plus when designing.

    I want to thank you BOG for the title of this video because I was on my wits end with my Magic Mouse after persevering for 10 months. The title grabbed my attention and I watched your clip. Personally, I have had enough of anything to do with Logitech. After watching your video, it gave me the impetus to start research on what other mice were suitable for a Mac, other than the ones you have stated. I got a lot from forums on other peoples experiences of using compatible mouse for their Mac's.
    For me, using the Magic Mouse was highly unproductive. I settled on a Hyperx Pulsefire Haste 2 Wireless. The Hyperx works a treat, works brilliantly on Bluetooth, and don't need to touch the USB Dongle; it's still in the box. It is quick with the pointer, on my multiple large Monitors that I have, with no lagging. Best of all, I can be productive again and chuffed with my new purchase. The Magic Mouse has gone into retirement. Thank you for your informative video, cheers.

    Thanks for the detailed instructions. I got my mouse working again, but it immediately stopped after I put it back together. The I just loosened the two outer screws under the thumb button (the ones that are hidden beneath the wide glide pad) and now it seems to work.
    So, hint for everyone: try these two first before opening the whole mouse. Might save you some work.

    I just bought the new M3 macbook pro, and I needed something (1) portable, (2) rechargeable, and (3) USB-C compatible. I initially bought a cheap Logitech bluetooth mouse because I'm very happy with my Logitech gaming mouse at home, however, the bluetooth connection was horrible and made the cursor micro stutter. After some research, I came across the Lenovo Go Mouse. It is absolutely fantastic! As it (1) fits in my small backpack zipper, (2) has a rechargeable battery, and (3) comes equipped with a super minimal USB-C 2.4GHz dongle which alleviated the micro stuttering from the last mouse. Overall, I highly recommend the Lenovo Go Mouse for anyone looking for sleek, simple, "forget about it" solution to using a mouse on the go with a macbook :)

      But you shorten the lifespan of your mousewheel with it. All these mouses are going to have scroll issues after 1-2 years of use that's for sure. The only one that holds is mx master because of its optical encoder wheel which has much better longevity compared to mechanical encoder which is used in all other mice even in high end gaming ones for 100 bucks.

    About the Logi MX mouse: I had the same issues with the teleporting. Just install the Logi Options+ Software of Logi and it will install the right drivers automatically. Now it is the best mouse ever. The mx mouse is simply practical for macbooks. I have the feeling that I don't have to make any compromises when it comes to the functions. For example, the button at the bottom for the thumb is great when it comes to switching desktops. The second scroll wheel is super useful when you are on the web and need to scroll horizontally. The Logitech software is just great. I have entire automations to set up my workspace.
