This Logitech MX Master mouse is a bargain for just $50 today

Logitech’s MX Master series of mice are some of the most beloved on the market, but they don’t come cheap. If you’re willing to settle for an older model, today you can get one for just $50. Lenovo’s online store is selling the MX Master 2S for just $49.99 with a coupon code.

The MX Master 2S came out in 2018, a gentle refresh of the iconic design with compatibility for Logitech’s multi-device Flow software. It’s got all the big features of the series, including that big, comfy shape, a secondary scroll wheel for your thumb, tons of programming options for the many buttons, and compatibility with 2.4GHz wireless and Bluetooth. While 4,000 DPI on the sensor isn’t exactly gaming-grade these days, the Darkfield tech is good enough to track on glass. It should last up to 70 days on a charge, too. You can read PCWorld’s full review here.

All that being said, you might want to pass on the Master 2S if you’ve gone all-in on USB-C since this one recharges with a Micro USB cable that can be harder to find these days. Newer MX Master designs have USB-C charging, quieter clicks, and scroll wheels that can dynamically switch between clicky and fast scrolling. I’m not a fan of the Master 2S’s stacked thumb buttons, and there’s an unofficial MX Master 4 mouse that’ll probably arrive sometime later this year. It has three thumb buttons in what looks like a more comfy arrangement.

But that’ll be well over the $100 mark when it comes out, as are the current models. If you’re deal hunting, then you can thank the forum posters over at SlickDeals. They found that if you use the coupon code MX2S at checkout, you can cut the price in half. Even for an older design (still a brand-new unit), it’s a great deal.
