A sensor that quits on glass turns a travel mouse into a paperweight. This roundup compares five wireless mice on sensor DPI, surface tracking, connection type, battery life and warranty terms, using only what each listing publishes.

Detailed Review

Logitech lists the MX Anywhere 3S as a compact wireless mouse with an 8K DPI sensor that tracks on any surface, including glass. It connects over Bluetooth to up to 3 devices across Windows, macOS, Chrome OS, Googlebook OS and Linux, and it works with the Logi Bolt USB receiver, which is not included; the box ships a USB-A to USB-C charging cable only. The MagSpeed scroll wheel is stated to scroll 1000 lines per second, clicks are quiet, and six buttons are programmable through Logi Options+. A full charge lasts up to 70 days, and a 1-minute charge gives up to 3 hours of use. The listing gives a 10.0-meter range, a 7.04-ounce weight and 3.96 by 2.56 in dimensions. A 1 Year Limited Hardware Warranty is stated.

Who it's for: a traveler or hot-desk worker who wants glass-capable tracking and multi-device Bluetooth in a compact mouse. Who should skip it: anyone who needs a USB dongle in the box.

Its Office Score of 9.6/10 comes from performance 32/35, build 21/25, value 21/25, safety 0/10 and warranty 3/5: 77 of 100 points, placed on our 9.2 to 9.8 scale.

  • 33 ft operating distance stated in the bullets
  • 7 buttons on a right-hand shape
  • 1 Year Limited Hardware Warranty is stated

Cons

  • Spec table says 5.0 meters while the bullets state 33 ft

Detailed Review

Logitech lists the MX Anywhere 2S as a compact wireless mouse with a 4K DPI Darkfield sensor for any-surface tracking and Bluetooth with no USB receiver. It lists 7 buttons, a right-hand shape, micro-USB charging and a 2-month battery life. The operating distance appears twice: the bullets state 33 ft while the spec table says 5.0 meters, so we trust the bullets and treat the range as 33 ft. The listing gives 6.4 ounces and 6.9 by 4.4 in dimensions. A 1 Year Limited Hardware Warranty is stated.

Who it's for: someone who wants any-surface tracking and Bluetooth without paying for the newest model. Who should skip it: anyone who needs USB-C charging or a stated dongle.

Specifications are manufacturer rated as listed, collected 17 October 2026. Two of the five state a warranty term; two state glass-capable tracking.

How we scored them

The Office Score weighs performance (sensor DPI, surface tracking and stated range), build (materials, shape and item weight), value for the stated specs, safety and warranty. For a mouse, safety means a stated certification or safety-relevant design feature; none of the listings state one. Two listings state a warranty term: both Logitech models at 1 Year Limited Hardware Warranty. How we pick explains the weights.

Product Office Score Perf. /35 Build /25 Value /25 Safety /10 Warranty /5
Logitech MX Anywhere 3S 9.6 32 21 21 0 3
Logitech MX Anywhere 2S 9.5 29 20 20 0 3

Scores run from 9.2 to 9.8: each product’s point total is placed on that range, so more points always means a higher score.

How to choose the best wireless mouse for all surfaces

Any-surface tracking: what the listings state

Only two listings name a surface-tracking sensor. The MX Anywhere 3S lists an 8K DPI sensor that tracks on any surface, including glass, and the MX Anywhere 2S lists a 4K DPI Darkfield sensor for any-surface tracking. The three shorter cards state no sensor details, so treat them as ordinary optical mice until the listing says otherwise. If your desk is glass, the 3S is the only stated pick. See the mice and mouse pads category for more input gear.

Bluetooth or dongle

Neither Logitech model ships a dongle. The 3S connects over Bluetooth to up to 3 devices and works with the Logi Bolt USB receiver, which is not included; the box ships a USB-A to USB-C charging cable only. The 2S connects over Bluetooth with no USB receiver. The Amazon Basics and VssoPlor titles name 2.4 GHz wireless, which usually means a receiver, but neither listing states one. Confirm Bluetooth on your laptop before choosing a dongle-free mouse.

Battery: rechargeable or stated life

The stated battery figures split three ways. The 3S recharges over USB-C: up to 70 days on a full charge, with up to 3 hours of use from a 1-minute charge. The 2S recharges over micro-USB with a 2-month battery life. The HP X3000 G3 states a 15-month battery with no further details. Rechargeable suits a desk with a free USB port; a long stated battery suits a mouse you never want to think about.

Logitech MX Anywhere 3S 8K DPI 70 days 1 Year Limited Hardware Warranty
Logitech MX Anywhere 2S 4K DPI 2 months 1 Year Limited Hardware Warranty
HP X3000 G3 Not stated 15-month battery Not stated
Amazon Basics Mouse Optical Not stated Not stated
VssoPlor Slim Mouse Not stated Not stated Not stated

Size and travel

The 3S lists 3.96 by 2.56 in at 7.04 ounces, a compact right-hand shape made for bags. The 2S lists 6.9 by 4.4 in at 6.4 ounces, a larger stated footprint for a compact mouse, so check the numbers against your bag. The three shorter cards state no dimensions. For more portable picks, see our best wireless mouse for travel.

Setup Notes

  • Confirm Bluetooth on your laptop; neither Logitech model ships a dongle in the box.
  • Check the charging cable: USB-A to USB-C for the 3S, micro-USB for the 2S.
  • Match the sensor to your surface: glass-capable 8K DPI on the 3S, Darkfield 4K on the 2S.
  • Pair up to 3 devices on the 3S before a trip so switching takes one button press.
