When you switch over to Free Spin the mouse sends an electric charge which then reverses the polarity, and therefore the inner teeth retract making no contact with the exterior wheel, which ultimately doesn’t create resistance.

Hence you would be able to feel the scroll steps as the teeth inside make contact with each other. So when you’re in ratchet mode, the magnets inside are polar opposite, which results in repulsion. For those of you who are wondering, ratchet mode is when you can physically feel the scroll steps, whereas if you switch over to free spin you’re basically letting the scroll wheel spin for as long as it can depending on how much force you applied. They have implemented electromagnets inside the wheel that are supposed to offer silent and precise movement, as well as a seamless transition between ratchet mode and free spin. Logitech spent quite a bit of time talking about this feature during my briefing, so here’s what you need to know. Moving on, let’s talk about the MagSpeed scroll wheel. The best part is they aren’t charging a premium for it, it still retails for $99 USD so it’s the same price as the Master 2S when it was launched.

Now the MX Master 3 addresses some of the issues that I had with the Master 2S, but Logitech has also added some more features to make it a little bit better, like a newly redesigned MagSpeed scroll wheel, the inclusion of pre-configured button profiles that can take advantage of all of the buttons, including the horizontal scroll wheel in certain apps. However, it was also geared for professionals who spend a lot of time sitting in front of a screen creating spreadsheet documents, working on presentations, coding, working on graphics, you name it. If you recall my review of this mouse, I actually really enjoyed using it because it was packed with features that helped ease my workflow for editing videos and doing other things. This is the new Logitech MX Master 3, and for those of you wondering, its predecessor the MX Master 2S was launched more than two years ago.
