Logitech delivers the ultimate ecosystem for seamless performance with MX Series devices and Logi Options+ software
In technology, as in life, small things often make the biggest difference. You can have the most advanced processor in the world built into your computer, use the highest capacity and fastest solid-state storage device, or plug in the most cutting-edge monitor. But if you're still using the same old simple mouse, keyboard and webcam, then you are missing out on the true top user experience that you would like, and all the other techno-wizardry in your system will pass you by. While the scenario is common for many computers and users, Logitech is here to save the day. By combining the MX Series devices with the Logi Options+ software, Logitech elevates your computing experience. Regardless of your system's specs, this ecosystem unlocks greater control, comfort and efficiency. Whether you're running a high-end machine or a modest setup, you'll find your daily tasks smoother, faster and far more enjoyable with this combination of hardware and software. MX Master 3S wireless mouse The Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse offers two key upgrades over its predecessor: an 8,000 DPI sensor and much quieter clicks - 90% quieter, according to Logitech. Design-wise, the MX Master 3S differentiates itself from run-of-the-mill mice on the market with its distinctive ergonomic design and shape. It features seven buttons and two scroll wheels. The main wheel offers both ratcheting and freewheeling modes, while the second wheel is great for horizontal scrolling - though it can be customised for other functions, as can the other buttons, using Logitech's Logi Options+ software. The mouse charges via USB-C and lasts up to 70 days on a single charge. Connectivity is possible via Bluetooth or the supplied Logi Bolt USB receiver. There may be some lag if it is plugged into a Thunderbolt dock, but this can easily be fixed with a USB extension cable. While the Bluetooth works well, the accuracy was even better with the receiver. One small drawback is the lack of a groove or compartment to store the dongle when not in use, so you need to be mindful of where you keep such an easy-to-misplace accessory. Additionally, this mouse's ergonomics were designed for right-handed users - so if you're left-handed this model is not for you. For the right-handed majority, though, this is a wonderful device to hold, with a smooth, matt, rubberised feel in a sharp yet chunky shape that offers a firm and form-fitting grip. The 8,000 DPI sensor, while impressive, is most beneficial for large 4K or multi-monitor setups. For standard displays, it may be more than necessary. However, the mouse's 125Hz polling rate is solid for productivity across most hardware. Overall, the MX Master 3S is a great choice for office work, offering excellent ergonomics, a quiet click, and useful extra features - all enhanced by the Logi Options+ suite. MX Keys S wireless backlit keyboard The MX Keys S is a wireless keyboard that builds upon Logitech's MX Series. It features a sleek, low-profile design with keycaps shaped in a shallow, dish-like curve to help keep fingers aligned and reduce accidental presses. The keys have full white backlighting that automatically activates when your hands approach and adjusts its brightness based on ambient lighting conditions. Out of the box, what impressed us most was the sturdy build quality, sophisticated design and the materials used. Ergonomically, it is a pleasure to use - the low-profile design remains comfortable even without a wrist rest. The MX Keys S keyboard delivers an outstanding typing experience with quiet yet tactile keystrokes, with the subtly concave keycaps helping maintain finger placement to reduce typing errors. A row of shortcut buttons - including one for emojis - enhances ease of use, while the Logi Options+ software offers a wide range of customisation options, including backlight adjustments and macro creation. The keyboard connects to your computer via Bluetooth or a dedicated USB receiver, and it charges through a USB-C cable supplied in the box. With backlighting enabled, a full charge lasts around 10 days. Logitech claims a battery life of up to five months with the backlighting off and settings optimised in Logi Options+. All things considered, this is an excellent choice for both office and home use. MX Brio webcam The MX Brio is among Logitech's premium webcam offerings, featuring 4K Ultra HD resolution and a sleek design. It includes indicator lights, a built-in privacy shutter activated by twisting the lens ring, and an adjustable mount with Show Mode for tilting the camera downward - ideal for artists and streamers. The setup is simple - just plug in the USB-C cable, and the required drivers install automatically. The webcam works seamlessly with platforms like Zoom, OBS Studio and Streamlabs. The Logitech MX Brio offers a wide range of video customisation options. Along with standard features like auto exposure, colour correction and white balance, it allows for more precise control. You can adjust tilt, pan, and zoom, shifting the view slightly to the left or to the right to ensure you're perfectly in the centre of the frame. Settings can be fine-tuned via Logi Options+ or within streaming software. While it supports 4K at 30fps, this needs to be manually enabled. However, it also supports 1080p at 60fps for smoother motion. The built-in microphone is very sensitive and captures ambient noise easily, so artists and streamers wishing to use it as a primary mic should ensure that their recording environment is quiet. Overall, the MX Brio is a solid choice for users who need a high-resolution webcam with versatile features and professional-grade video control. Logi Options+ software While the MX Series keyboard, mouse and webcam trio is already impressive, the Logi Options+ software is the cherry on top that makes them complete and outstanding. Designed as a unified and intuitive interface, Logi Options+ significantly enhances the efficiency and performance of these MX series devices. For starters, the software automatically detects supported Logitech devices, and displays them in a centralised dashboard. This allows you to easily manage each device without needing separate programs. The suite also keeps your Logitech devices updated with the latest firmware and monitors battery levels for wireless devices - so you're always informed well in advance of needing a recharge. With Logi Options+, users have extensive customisation options of their devices. We used the software to remap the MX Master 3S mouse buttons and assign custom functions to keys on the MX Keys S keyboard. This included complex commands - or macros - designed to streamline workflow. For instance, we configured one of the mouse buttons to trigger a Photoshop action with a single press and mapped another key on the keyboard to perform a separate function. Gesture controls are also possible with Logi Options+, combining button presses and movements. We set up two MX Master 3S side buttons to launch Excel with a simultaneous press, while another set of buttons opened YouTube. The software is also where we made adjustments - fine-tuning sensitivity levels until the cursor movement felt just right and bumping the mouse's DPI up to 8,000. Each customised setup can be saved as an application-specific profile - similar to memory settings for a car seat for individual drivers. The interface allows you to switch between these profiles seamlessly as you move between applications, automatically adjusting your device settings to match the task at hand. For users working across multiple computers - including both Windows and macOS - Logitech Flow integration ensures that you can use a single mouse and keyboard to control multiple devices. You can even transfer files or clipboard content between them effortlessly, making it especially useful for multi-device setups. With the Logi Options+ paired with Logitech's MX series mouse, keyboard and webcam, you can ensure that your peripherals are just as your system's internals. If your computer setup is a high-performance supercar, then the MX Series devices and Logi Options+ are the advanced tyres that help you to harness all that power into exceptional performance.
