Logitech has just announced a new mouse that is geared towards productivity. It is part of its popular MX series and is dubbed the Anywhere 3S model, with its special feature being its ability to function on any surface. The popular PC peripheral maker’s MX Anywhere 3S was recently leaked ahead of its launch, which revealed its design at the start of last month. Now, the official announcement brings the successor to the Anywhere 3 mouse that had launched back in 2020. It houses an optical sensor with up to 8,000 DPI and promises to be able to work on “virtually any surface”. This includes the notorious surface of glass, where most optical mouse find difficult to track users’ movement inputs.
This is due to the optical sensor’s laser
that usually passes through glass and doesn’t reflect enough to be picked up by
the sensor. Thus, more opaque surfaces tend to work better. However, the latest
Anywhere 3S brings improvement over its predecessor, being able to run on even
glass. Furthermore, this productivity mouse also houses the brand’s proprietary
Quiet Click technology to muffle the sounds of buttons being clicked. It helps
in keeping the sound low to avoid distracting your co workers.
Apart from this, the mouse is quite
similar to the Anywhere 3 with a similar 70 day battery life and design. The
model also has built in Bluetooth support with no dongle, which is a great
addition since a smaller dongle is easy to lose. As of right now, you can
pre-order the Logitech MX Anywhere 3S for 79.99 US Dollars. It is available in
four color options, namely Graphite, Pale Grey, Rose, and Black and will go on
sale on June 6.
