Logitech Yeti 2 two-minute review

It’s been 17 years since Blue launched the original Yeti, and it didn’t take long for it to become fan a favorite in the world of consumer desktop mics. There have been tweaks and touch-ups here and there, but few major changes, even after Logitech bought Blue in 2018. Until now, that is.

I’ve been using the first Yeti for years, so I was intrigued to know how the new model compared. The good news is that while there’s plenty to love about the original Yeti — it became a household name for a reason, after all — the Yeti 2 is even more impressive. It’s one of the best microphones for streaming available right now.

Put the two microphones on a desk together and you’ll see that the Yeti 2 is very slightly more compact, yet it still retains the distinctive Yeti aesthetic. More noticeable when you pick them up is the weight — at 995g (2.19lbs), the Yeti 2 is almost 50% lighter than the 1.4kg (3.09lbs) Yeti.

Another thing that immediately catches your eye is the Yeti 2’s built-in LED display, which sits above a singular dial that can be pushed in like a button. This display is a new addition and, in combination with the dial, essentially replaces the volume, mute, gain and polar pattern controls on the old Yeti.

This lets you change the mic’s settings and monitor its audio levels on the display, all without needing Logitech’s G Hub app. It’s a handy feature if you want to make quick adjustments on the fly, although we found the push-in dial to be a little finicky at times, where pressing it would occasionally not do anything. Still, it’s useful for quick changes if you don’t fancy diving into the G Hub app.

If you do want to do that, though, there are plenty of audio presets to choose from, including those for interviews, singing, speech to text, different instruments, and more. You can make manual adjustments to equalizer levels, enable the gate, compressor and more, and work through input gain settings, then save your settings to the app or one of five on-board profiles. Those profiles can be set to automatically activate when specific games launch, too.

That said, G Hub is probably not the most in-depth experience you’re likely to find. For beginners, though, switching polar patterns and adjusting the built-in noise cancelation is about all you’ll need.

The most important part of any microphone, of course, is its audio quality. And here, the Yeti 2 really delivers. Compared to my long-serving Yeti, the Yeti 2 sounded much crisper and clearer. The Yeti was by no means bad, but the latest model shows strong signs of improvement, no doubt helped by the improvement from 16-bit to 24-bit audio and the addition of software noise cancelation.

Part of that is thanks to the new Auto Tracking polar pattern that detects where your sound is coming from and automatically adjusts the pickup area accordingly, ensuring the input is optimized, wherever you’re sat. You can still set a manual polar pattern if you like, but Auto Tracking is effective enough that it will be the best option for most people.

Another useful aspect of this voice proximity sensor is its impact on gain. Now, the Yeti 2 can automatically decrease or increase the gain as you move closer to or further away from the mic, ensuring your input volume remains level throughout. This feature isn’t perfect — I noticed my voice picked up more echo the as I moved away — but it’s much better than what you got with the first Yeti, where you’d just get quieter as you moved away.

As you’d expect from Blue/Logitech, the Yeti 2’s build quality is top notch. The main body is made of metal and feels rock solid. The included metal stand has a soft padded base to keep it from slipping, while the lugs that hold the mic screwed into the base are rubberized to minimize bumps and shakes while you’re recording. This thing looks beautiful and feels like it’s made to last.

There’s a thread on the bottom for attaching the Yeti 2 to a boom arm, in case you’d rather use it that way instead of upright in its stand. The display can also be flipped 180 degrees, which makes reading it an awful lot easier when it’s mounted this way.

There’s not a lot to dislike about the Yeti 2. The single push-in dial didn’t seem to be the most reliable feature and merging several buttons into one means it takes a little longer to scroll through the settings than dedicated dials would. We’re also disappointed to see the price has increased versus the original Yeti. But that’s all blown away compared to thing you care about most with a microphone — namely, its audio quality — which is as good as it gets in a consumer mic.

Logitech Yeti 2 review: Price & release date

• Available to buy now
• Priced at $159.99 / £139.99 / $249.95 AUD

The Logitech Yeti 2 is available now from Logitech’s website or from third-party retailers. It’s priced at $159.99 / £139.99 / $249.95 AUD.

It’s more expensive than the original Yeti, which was most recently sold for $139.99 (and is currently on sale for $109.99 on Logitech’s website), but the Yeti 2 is not unreasonably expensive. It also offers an awful lot for the price.

As more and more companies press their workers into coming back into the office, even if only for a few days in increasingly popular hybrid working models, the need for effective and reliable communication technology has never been greater.

A common sight in offices and homes across the world, Logitech is ideally placed to monitor trends in what workers at every level require - and at its recent Logi Work 2026 event, it took the opportunity to show off how its latest suite of releases can revolutionize the collaboration experience for all.

To find out more, I spoke to Henry Levak, VP and general manager, Logitech, to see what it sees as the future of meeting rooms, offices, and even the humble home working desk.

Broad portfolio paying off

“We want people to think of us as that simple and flexible partner - the word 'proprietary' and being locked in is luckily something we're moving away from,” Levak tells me.

“The reality is that you will have a world of different configurations,” he notes, highlighting how many of Logitech’s customers are asking workers to come back into the office, meaning the company needs to broaden its offerings even further.

“That's been a huge catalyst for our success,” he notes, “we have an incredibly broad portfolio that covers people working from home, to people working in the boardroom, and everything in between.”

At the event, Levak had spoken about the upcoming launch of Logitech’s new portfolio, which the company had described as its biggest enterprise-focused launch in years.

The new lineup, which includes the Rally Bar 2, Rally System 2 Pro and Sound Shape technology, will revolutionize the way businesses of all sizes collaborate and communicate, with not only more powerful, but more customizable technology being the watchword.

For example, the new Rally Bar 2, the successor to the popular sound bar now seen in boardrooms and meeting spaces across the globe, not only features a Qualcomm Dragonwing chip to allow for better AI processing, but offers a 115 degree POV and much easier wall mounting due to its smaller form factor

The Rally System 2 Pro provides a “modular yet streamlined” offering which looks to simplify complex installs which can be difficult to maintain and manage - making larger rooms better spaces to have these vital meetings in.

In spite of its new range of releases, Logitech had spoken about its goal to “simplify everything” - so I ask Levak how the company can pursue that goal while still offering a range of products attractive to all different kinds of customers.

“It's a big pain point,” he says, “one of the things you can almost always predict is that simplifying will be a request...people want things to be dramatically simpler - but they also want consistency and experience.”

“What they don't want, is that if you walk into a room, like a smaller space with some sort of AI features and capability - and then you walk into a larger room, and for some reason that space doesn't have that feature.”

“The technology should just disappear and blend away into the background, and everyone should just focus on collaboration and creation, not necessarily the technology - and the only way to achieve that is if you have consistent technology.”

Simplify, simplify

Going forward, this will mean that even in a large room or meeting space, customers will only require a small simple device such as a video bar set up, Levak says, removing unnecessary friction and allowing everyone to work effectively.

“The way you simplify it is by dramatically reducing the number of components,” he points out, “what we're doing is something that dramatically simplifies all of that, from installation, provisioning, setup and deployment - it's a reduction in terms of complexity of what's out there today.”

“In terms of what it can bring, it's the first time modern AI is available in much larger rooms - now you have a full ecosystem of components that will deliver that experience.”

Looking forward, Levak is keen to point out the role AI can play in spaces as incongruous as meeting rooms.

With AI agents playing an increasingly important role for many workers, the need for context has never been greater. Such information needs to be collected by a range of sensors, and Logitech feels that products such as microphones and cameras could play a key role in expanding this - as long as effective privacy controls are used - making its equipment the physical layer of a company’s AI ecosystem.

“You can see the power when (an AI agent) has context about you, and the same thing will apply at work,” Levak says, “at a higher level, we’re deploying these sensors in every space, so that the context you need in order to build out a more thoughtful agent for you.”

“We're making sure the products are built for what's coming next,” he concludes, “both from the simplicity and elegance perspective, but also from features and capability.”

A cheap wireless mouse might get the job done, but there's a noticeable difference when you move to something designed for precision and comfort. The Logitech MX Anywhere 3S, currently $70 (was $90) at Amazon, packs several useful features into a compact design.

One of the biggest attractions of the Logitech MX Anywhere 3S mouse is that you don't need a mat to use it. Its 8,000 DPI Darkfield sensor can track on a wide range of surfaces, including glass that's at least 4mm thick.

• Best for: Laptop owners, mobile professionals, and anyone who regularly works across multiple computers.

• Why it matters: You get premium features such as MagSpeed scrolling, an 8,000 DPI sensor, quiet clicks, and multi-device connectivity without paying over the top. Weighing just 99g and measuring around 100mm long, it won't take up much space in your laptop bag either.

Today's best Logitech wireless mouse deal

Why we recommend it

In his 4-star review of an earlier version, our expert Nick said: "Despite its small size, the Logitech MX Anywhere 3 packs plenty of features seen in some of Logitech’s more advanced models. Scrolling through documents or websites is ridiculously satisfactory, and its ability to work across multiple surfaces is a traveler’s dream."

With the MX Anywhere 3S, the 3's successor, Logitech has made the clicks quieter than before, which will be welcome when working in shared spaces.

The MagSpeed wheel can scroll through up to 1,000 lines per second, allowing it navigate large files much quicker. Horizontal scrolling can be activated by holding a side button while turning the wheel.

The six-button design includes customizable controls, and Options+ software lets you assign shortcuts and create application-specific settings in Windows and macOS. You can pair the mouse with three Bluetooth devices and quickly switch between them.

Price context & historical value

The Logitech MX Anywhere 3S normally costs $89.99, but it's currently available for $69.99. That saves you $20. That's a great reduction, although we have seen it as low as $60 in the past, and it could get cheaper around Black Friday.

Should you buy it?

✅ Buy the Logitech MX Anywhere 3S if...

You regularly use a laptop away from your usual desk and want a reliable mouse that can track on almost any surface. It's also a good choice if you use it with several different computers.

❌ Skip the Logitech MX Anywhere 3S if...

You mainly use your computer for occasional web browsing and don't need advanced features. A basic wireless mouse will cost considerably less.

• Three in five workers report physical discomfort with their desk setups
• Better tech means higher productivity and better wellbeing, Logitech says
• Hardware is more important than it was five years ago, especially among heavy AI users

A new Logitech study has argued that something as simple as unsuitable or dated tech could be impacting workers both at work and at home, leading to an overall downward trend in productivity.

According to the analysis of more than 9,400 respondents and 1,350 IT decision-makers (ITDMs), four in five (81%) believe having the right technology could make the difference between achieving their goals and not.

But Logitech's biggest findings reveal technology's impacts on workers' general lives, with over half reporting improvements in physical or mental wellbeing (54%) and higher optimism about their future (58%) just with a bit more control over the tech they use.

Logitech says the right tech boost productivity and morale – but it would say that

On the flip side, nearly two-thirds (64%) reported feeling frustrated, anxious or angry due to technology problems, as three in five (58%) even reported physical discomfort like wrist pain, eye strain and neck fatigue from their desk setup.

The reality is that only a quarter (24%) of workers say they have control over the technology in their office, yet just one-fifth would keep their existing setup if they were given the choice, revealing a widespread appetite for change.

In its report, Logitech declares that "hardware is the human layer," to the point that 42% of respondents rely on hardware more now than they did five years ago – a figure that climbs to 76% among heavy AI users, implying that despite automation's purported productivity gains, human-machine interaction isn't going anywhere.

Logitech's report calls for employers to consider employee experience during procurement processes – not just cost, security and technical specifications. It also covers the impact of hybrid working, and how employers should bear that in mind when allocating hardware.

• Logitech reveals new over-ear headset for work and play
• The Zone Vibe Pro for Business features a built-in mic, AI voice isolation, and ANC
• It aims to remove the “hassle” of swapping between work and leisure headsets

Logitech has identified its new market: people frustrated with the act of switching headsets between work and play. The Zone Vibe Pro for Business is its solution, offering a built-in mic, powerful 40 mm drivers, Adaptive Noise Cancellation, and even AI voice isolation.

The over-ear headset, available alongside the non-business Zone Vibe Pro, offers a solution to the “constant hassle” of swapping between work and personal audio headsets. It does this by offering the flexibility of good sound quality and a reliable mic, and is certified for use with popular video conferencing solutions.

Logitech has designed the USB-C headsets for sustainability, with recycled plastics, available in a choice of colorways.

Solving the audio hassle

Zone Vibe Pro headsets offer range of audio features, although aside from the assembly and recycled materials, the most notable is the lack of a mic boom.

Despite this omission, the headsets are suitable for video conferencing on platforms like Microsoft Teams, Zoom and Google Meet. Meanwhile, the Zone Vibe Pro for Business headsets are compatible with the fleet management software Logitech Sync.

"Modern professionals working across open offices, at home or on the go, shouldn't need multiple audio solutions for work and life," said Logitech’s VP and General Manager of Mobile and Audio Solutions, Joseph Mingori.

"Zone Vibe Pro solves that problem by giving employees the option of great sound everywhere with comfortable fit while giving IT teams reliable, certified hardware."

Aiming for a work calls, focused, distraction-free listening, and the added audio demands of commuting on public transport and evening downtime (such as walking the dog), Logitech’s new headsets retail at £229.99 ($259.99) for the Zone Vibe Pro and £249.99 ($279.99) for the Zone Vibe Pro for Business, which includes a Zone USB-C Receiver.

Recycled audio hardware

With high-speed USB-C charging, the Zone Vibe Pro headsets can gain an hour of time for every five minutes charged, and has up to 30 hours of listening or 18 hours of call time with ANC enabled (and up to 66 hours with it switched off).

Logitech has manufactured the range with sustainability in mind. They include a minimum of 29% certified recycled plastic, and state that “internal magnets contain 100% post-consumer recycled rare earth metals.”

Batteries use 100% recycled cobalt, and the packaging paper hails from FSC-certified forests. In addition, the devices are a dream for Right to Repair enthusiasts, with replaceable batteries, earpads, and headstraps, which should mean a longer lifespan for the headsets.

• The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt lead writer Marcin Blacha has explained what it takes to create a worthwhile Witcher remake
• He says CD Projekt Red needs to "stay true to the spirit" of the original game
• However, the remake has to appeal to a new audience using modern technology

CD Projekt Red VP of narration and story director Marcin Blacha has revealed the secret to making a worthwhile Witcher remake, and it's about balancing what made the original game good with appealing to a new audience.

During a panel at Logitech Play 2026 attended by TechRadar Gaming, Blacha, who was a lead writer on The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, explained that the studio needs to "stay true" to the 2007 original, but also design a fresh experience for gamers who didn't play it.

"The secret is to identify what was good in the original game, and find a way to retell it to the audience that, for some reason, cannot participate in this experience," Blacha said. "Those are two different things, and each of them is difficult on its own, because it's not that easy sometimes to recreate this experience."

The writer went on to discuss what the studio calls "Act Four" of The Witcher 1, which takes place in a rural lakeside region "that is very folklorish" and "full of beautiful landscapes," but said it's difficult to recreate that feeling again because it's a different experience for every player and can be "a little bit vague."

"To create a good remake, you need to identify what was good and find a way to recreate it using newer technology, [while] staying true to the spirit of the original game," Blacha added.

The Witcher remake is in development at Fool's Theory and will utilize Unreal Engine 5, as CD Projekt Red is currently all hands on deck making The Witcher 4, the first game in a new trilogy of Witcher games that it wants to release within a six-year time frame.

CDPR has also just launched The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Remastered, which offers a massive collection of improvements that promise an entirely new experience for the decade-old role-playing game (RPG).

• Logitech G has just released a new microphone for gaming and streaming
• The Yeti 2 is a successor to the legendary Blue Yeti
• It has a wealth of new features and a color screen

Logitech G has just launched the Yeti 2, a new streaming microphone designed to be an all-in-one solution for content creators.

The first Yeti launched back in 2009 and quickly became something of a legend in the streaming space. It was relatively affordable and offered good plug-and-play performance for the time, making it one of the easiest-to-use and best microphones for streaming for many starting out in content creation.

Originally manufactured by Blue Microphones, the brand was bought by Logitech in 2023 and gradually folded into the Logitech G portfolio. Despite this, that old model still continues to be made and remains a popular choice.

The Yeti 2 looks to take everything that people loved about its predecessor and overhaul it with modern technology and a wealth of new features.

It keeps the same iconic pill shape and overall aesthetic, now housing a redesigned array with three capsules.

There's a new 1.3-inch screen too, which can be used to keep track of key settings like gain or pickup pattern. It can also be set to display a cute animated mascot with an expression that changes when you're too loud or too quiet.

The default option is naturally a cute pixel-art yeti, but there are plenty of other pre-set characters to choose from, and even the option to upload images to create your own.

Senior global product marketing manager SM tells me that making the Yeti 2 easy to use was a key priority for Logitech G, something apparent in its feature set. It includes an adjustable AI-powered denoiser to cut out background sounds,

This runs locally on the microphone, without the need for any PC software.

There's also now a proximity sensor built into the mic (which SM is very keen to stress is not the same as a camera) in order to track the position of your face and distance from the mic. This adapts everything from pickup pattern to EQ and gain automatically in real time, on paper making that you always sound as good as possible with minimal tweaking.

All of this comes in at just $159.99 / £139.99 / AU$249.95 — handily undercutting premium alternatives like the SteelSeries Alias or Shure MV7+.

Last week I flew out to Warsaw for Logitech G Play 2026. The gaming brand’s annual flagship event saw a wealth of new product reveals, with the Pro X2 Rapid keyboard and Pro X3 Superstrike mouse dominating headlines in the PC gaming peripheral space.

I tried them out at the venue ahead of the official launch, and they’re great pieces of hardware, but ones squarely aimed at a very specific audience of esports pros and aspiring competitive gamers. With top-of-the-line specs, they’re also pretty expensive at $229.99 / £209.99 / AU $399.95 and $199.99 / £169.99 / AU$299.95, respectively.

I naturally assumed that such high-end kit would be the highlight of the show for me, but it was actually something right at the other end of the price spectrum that impressed me the most.

More for less

The Logitech G316 X 75 is the latest arrival in the brand’s more budget-oriented G3 series.

It’s a smaller version of the existing G316 X 98 from earlier this year. I didn’t really pay much attention to the original launch: it was a full-size keyboard, and I’ve always preferred more compact designs for that extra desk space.

As a 75% size model, the G316 X 75 ditches the pointless numpad (seriously, when was the last time you used yours?) and a couple of little-used keys like Home and End to give you roughly 2.4in / 6cm on the right-hand side — perfect for positioning your mousepad if, like me, you’re short on desk space.

It wasn’t just the size that drew me to the G316 X 75 on the show floor, however. It’s a very flashy-looking keyboard with full RGB backlighting and a large LED strip with zones you can customize in the compatible Logitech G Hub software. There’s also a little LED screen in the top right corner which, alongside an accompanying button and dial, is used to turn on game mode (locking the Windows key), adjust music volume, or tweak key settings like RGB brightness.

It seemed like a practical little addition in my hands-on time, with some playful touches like a dancing smiley face that appears if you leave the keyboard idle. I found myself wondering if you could display your own little custom icon or emoji on the screen, though, sadly, a representative told me that wasn’t possible for now. A missed opportunity for even more personalization, perhaps.

The materials were decent for the price too. The whole keyboard is plastic, but it still feels weighty and suitably premium, with no noticeable flex when typing. Keycaps are double-shot PBT, with shine-through legends, so they should hold up for a long time as well. If anything does go wrong, both the keycaps and switches are hot-swappable for easy repairs.

On the subject of the switches, they’re tactile ones developed by Logitech that feel a bit different to alternatives from the likes of Cherry or Akko. They require a bit more force to press, and don’t really have that noticeable mid-press biting point characteristic of tactile switches. Unusual, but not necessarily a bad thing. They’re not super loud either, and are very smooth and still suitably satisfying to press.

This is obviously a keyboard geared more towards casual gaming than anything else and is wired-only, though that doesn’t mean that there aren’t a few decent specs. The big one is the 8kHz report rate, which should ensure that you’re not held back by delayed inputs if you do venture into more competitive titles like Counter-Strike 2.

All of this comes in at just £89.99 / $99.99 / AU$169.95. I’ve tested keyboards that cost a hell of a lot more and offer far less bang for your buck, so I can see the Logitech G316 X 75 becoming the go-to choice for cost-conscious gamers.

• Logitech G has released a new gaming mouse
• The Pro X3 Superstrike is an upgraded version of the Pro X2 Superstrike from earlier this year
• Major upgrades include better weight distribution and a new chipset for better power efficiency

PC gaming accessory maker Logitech G has just released the Pro X3 Superstrike, an upgraded version of the Pro X2 Superstrike that came out earlier this year.

We called the original model a 'revolutionary' innovation in our 5-star review, praising its unique Haptic Inductive Trigger System (HITS) switches. Relying on electromagnetic current, HITS allows you to customize everything from the exact actuation point of each click to just how much resistance there is when you press down.

This is a boon in an esports setting, where a short click speed can cut down click latency and, potentially, provide an edge over your opponents.

The upgrades found with the Pro X3 Superstrike are subtle, as you might expect given the short time between the two releases, but serve to make an already best-in-class product that little bit better.

It weighs the same 61g as the X2 model, but has been reworked internally for more even weight distribution. This, the team behind the mouse tells me, is the direct result of feedback given by esports pros who complained the original was too front-heavy.

Under the hood, it's also powered by a new chipset, dubbed the NxLOGI. Power efficiency was a major focus, with Logitech claiming that the X3 Superstrike can last more than 135 hours on each charge for a massive 45-hour boost compared to the X2.

There's an upgraded sensor too, which supports up to 48,000 DPI (compared to the 44,000 DPI of the previous model). Other flagship specs, like an up to 8,000Hz wireless report rate, remain unchanged — though there's now the option to achieve that when using the mouse in a wired capacity too.

Interestingly, there are some new features on the software side: you can now choose a range of Pro Presets in the compatible Logitech G Hub app, all inspired by the settings used by esports players like m0NESY or ShowMaker.

The result is a mouse that's clearly the better pick if you're weighing up the two, but all of this does with a price hike in the US and UK. The X3 Superstrike retails for $199.99 / £169.99 / AU$299.95. That's $20 / £10 more than the X2 (though, weirdly, the Australian price remains the same).

A Logitech representative did tell me that the X2 Superstrike will remain on sale alongside the X3 Superstrike for a time as an alternative for those who want something a little cheaper.

• Logitech report finds not even a third of companies involve IT/AV teams at the early stages
• Failed audio and dropped connections are costing workers time
• Businesses should use tech downtime as a productivity metric

Logitech's latest Workplace Experience study has claimed technology teams are often brought into projects far too late, after important decisions about offices and meeting spaces have already been made, and it's leading to suboptimal tech and friction that could be impacting worker productivity.

In the UK, for example, fewer than one in three (31%) workplaces involve their IT and Audio-Visual (AV) teams before space planning begins.

It means that tech decision-makers are then having to piece together hardware in a room that's already being designed, rather than being able to integrate the smartest solutions from the ground up.

IT teams should be involved in office planning, Logitech says

With hybrid working now commonplace, Logitech's data found that failed audio and dropped connections alone caused a median productivity loss of 12.2 minutes per person per poor meeting.

Despite poor IT team involvement, most business leaders agree that a strong workplace experience has a direct link with productivity (86%) and collaboration (90%).

However, upgrading tech and involving more teams from the get-go isn't quite so straightforward. Only half (56%) feel confident that have the right ROI data to justify workplace experience investments, with only 29% treating it as a core business strategy today.

Logitech's solution focuses firsts and foremost on aligning teams more closely. The report calls for greater collaboration between IT, HR and Real Estate earlier on in projects. By itself, planning rooms as a well-coordinated team could reduce long-term costs associated with upgrading legacy and unsuitable hardware.

But to further help with ROI justification, the study also introduces tech downtime as a metric, with impacted productivity serving as sufficient proof that office spaces need to perform better.

Logitech has two 1080p webcams on sale right now as part of its Early Prime Deals sale. But which one is the better buy depends entirely on what you actually need it for. We took a look at the key differences you need to know about.

• Best for: Anyone upgrading from a laptop's built-in camera for video calls to an affordable external webcam.

• The deal: The Logitech C920x is $60 (was $70) at Amazon, while the Logitech Brio 101 is $25 (was $40).

• Why it matters: The C920x adds better low-light performance, dual stereo mics, and flexible mounting, while the Brio 101 covers the essentials: 1080p video, a built-in mic, and a privacy shutter, at more than half the price.

Why we recommend them

The C920x descends from the original Logitech C920, a webcam we called "the best webcam you can buy today despite being much older than most of its competition" in our 4.5-star review. We praised its low-light detection and reliable autofocus. That review covered the older C920 rather than this exact 'X' variant, but the core optics and design lineage carry over, and the reputation is a reasonable indicator of what to expect here.

The Brio 101 trades some of that optical polish for a much lower price and a genuinely useful feature the C920x lacks: a built-in privacy shutter. For anyone who just wants a dependable webcam without thinking too hard about it, that combination of price and basic privacy hardware is hard to argue with.

The real decision is whether the C920x's better low-light handling and stereo mics are worth roughly $35 more than the Brio 101.

Price Context & Historical Value

The C920x's $59.99 price is a $10 discount, about 14 percent off, and matches pricing seen in recent retailer coverage rather than an inflated anchor. The Brio 101's $24.99 price is a $15 discount, 38 percent off, and multiple deal trackers list this as an all-time low for the model, making it the stronger discount of the two by percentage.

Which one should you buy?

✅ Buy the Logitech C920x if...

You want a Full HD webcam with good low-light performance and stereo audio that can be mounted to a tripod or monitor.

✅ Buy the Logitech Brio 101 if...

You just need a cheap and reliable webcam with a physical privacy shutter.

❌ Skip both if...

You need 4K resolution or advanced AI framing, in which case a higher-tier webcam like Logitech's Brio or MX Brio line is a better fit for the extra cost.

• Logitech unveils $99 MX Keypad accessory
• Sitting alongside your keyboard, it offers nine customizable keys to give access to AI tools and agents
• Users can even create and share their own integrations

Logitech has launched a new $99 accessory it says will help programmers and coders work faster and more effectively than ever before.

The new MX Keypad offers nine customizable full-color LCD keys which can be assigned to launching commands, running macros, and accessing AI tools.

It's also very compact, around the same width as a Logitech mouse and weighing just 96 grams, meaning it will sit alongside a user's keyboard without taking up too much space on your desk.

Faster and more effective access

Logitech says the MX Keypad, developed alongside GitHub and available in two color schemes, will act as a control center for users, aiming to cut down on switching between apps - although the customization options can also be used for non-coding apps.

Any of the nine keys can be configured to control one or multiple apps and agents, from running complex prompt macros to launching everyday commands, with native GitHub, VS Code and Copilot integration at launch.

Using the Logi Actions SDK, developers can even create and share their own integrations, while community-built plugins for tools including Claude Code and OpenAI Codex are already available, and plugins created and tested by developers for GitHub Copilot and Claude Code.

The MX Keypad connects using USB-C and requires macOS 13 or later, or Windows 10 or later. As is typical with Logitech devices, sustainability is also a key feature, with the MX Keypad features certified post-consumer recycled plastic, 64% for graphite, and 49% for its pale gray colored models.

“Today, coding mastery depends on how easily developers can juggle between an ever-increasing range of AI tools,” said Anatoliy Polyanker, VP and GM at Logitech. “MX Keypad puts a physical control center at your fingertips, allowing you to orchestrate your AI workflows faster and more intuitively.”

The MX Keypad looks to offer a more streamlined version of Logitech's existing MX Creative Console, which provides an LCD keypad with a separate dialpad to adjust settings and move around your favorite creative apps, but costs $199.99.

Logitech G305 X Superlight: Review

The Logitech G305 X Superlight is a lightweight wireless gaming mouse. Logitech is no stranger to this category, but this addition to its G305 line aims to keep things relatively simple while including some surprisingly advanced features relative to its price point.

It has quite a basic appearance, with a lack of branding or any odd contours. There’s an RGB light strip that looks too small to be effective, but it manages to brighten up the G305 X Superlight to an impressive degree — especially the black model — thanks to its wealth of animation customizations.

The overall build quality is great, too, adhering to Logitech’s typically high standards. Despite how light the unit is (it weighs just 61g), it’s surprisingly solid, lacking any flimsiness or hollowness. The plastic body is smooth with just a hint of texture that feels tactile and just as premium as the best gaming mouse shells. Furthermore, all of its buttons and the scroll wheel are solidly planted without a hint of play.

To customize the inputs (as well as the aforementioned RGB lighting) of the G305 X Superlight, you’ll need to download Logitech’s G HUB software. In one section, you’ll find five configurable DPI sliders that you can set to a range between 100 and 44,000 — you can then cycle through these using the dedicated button on the G305 X Superlight, which is thankfully placed on top rather than underneath, making it easy to access. You can save your five settings as a custom preset or select from several provided by Logitech, catering to various game types and scenarios — something I haven’t seen much in peripheral software.

In another section, you can reassign all of the G305 X Superlight’s buttons. There are a large number of assignments available, ranging from a multitude of system and media commands to keyboard inputs and mouse adjustments. You’ll also find custom actions for Discord, Overwolf, OBS, and Streamlabs Desktop. What’s more, a second mapping layer is available via Logitech’s G-shift feature, which is accessed by holding down a button of your choosing.

However, there aren’t any performance-related tweaks for the G305 X Superlight; you can’t alter the lift-off distance or debounce times, nor can you enable motion sync or angle snapping, for example. About the only feature in this area is what Logitech calls BHOP mode. This is designed to prevent accidental knocks of the scroll wheel from registering by ignoring the first scroll event unless a second is performed within a certain time frame (adjustable between 100ms and 1000ms).

Such omissions didn’t spoil my time gaming with G305 X Superlight, though. Its low profile suited my grip style, and the rear hump was just about prominent enough to sit comfortably in my palm without being obstructive. Also, I could grip the mouse securely with my thumb and ring finger during lift-offs thanks to the sidewalls that narrow as they reach the bottom, making up for the lack of grip tape or embossing.

Maneuvering the G305 X Superlight is easy thanks to that aforementioned lightness, too. And despite the relatively small skates, swipes were smooth and frictionless on my mouse pad. This was the case even when I had the USB cable attached — a surprise given it isn’t braided as many gaming mice cables are. Although it created some noticeable drag, it’s still lighter and more malleable than your average rubber cable.

As for the mouse buttons, I appreciated the ergonomics of their downward slant and subtle indentations. Clicks are solid yet snappy, with a good amount of feedback and a surprisingly deep travel. This means spamming is relatively effortless while accidental taps are unlikely to register. The side buttons are easy to reach and actuate, too.

The scroll wheel is easy to flick thanks to its light notching, yet there’s still just enough feedback to make single scrolls easy to perform. However, there were a few occasions when scrolls triggered when I pressed the middle button. This button can also feel quite firm if you don’t hit it at precisely the right angle, which can make presses awkward, but with practice this became less of an issue.

I had no problems with the connectivity of the G305 X Superlight. It connected to my devices via both Bluetooth and the 2.4GHz dongle without a hitch, and hot-switching between them was quick and easy thanks to the selector button underneath. You’ll also find a handy slot here for storing the dongle.

It is a shame there’s no native 8KHz support, although most PC gamers probably won’t need it. Taking everything into consideration, though, the G305 X Superlight is a great value gaming mouse that offers high performance and has a pleasing amount of features at this price point.

Logitech G305 X Superlight review: Price & availability

• $79.99 / £69.99 / AU$149.95
• Available now in black or white
• Good price for a wireless gaming mouse

The Logitech G305 X Superlight costs $79.99 / £69.99 / AU$149.95 and is available now. Two colorways are available: black and white. A USB cable is included for charging and wired play, but it isn’t braided. There are also no spare skates or optional grip tape to adhere to the sidewalls or mouse buttons.

Nevertheless, the G305 X Superlight is well priced for a gaming wireless mouse that has two wireless modes. It also performs very well and has a generous number of input customizations, although it lacks performance-related adjustments. It’s much cheaper than the Razer Viper V4 Pro, even though that mouse has a similar number of input customizations and no additional Bluetooth support. However, we loved virtually every aspect of its performance when we tested it, and gamers may find its form more ergonomic.

If you’re looking for something even cheaper, the Cooler Master MM311 is one of the best value gaming mice around right now. We were impressed with its light and symmetrical design, as well as its fast performance. Again, it doesn’t feature Bluetooth support, and you also have to supply your battery, but it’s hard to complain too much about such omissions when it’s so cheap.

How I tested the Logitech G305 X Superlight

• Tested for several days
• Used for gaming and other tasks
• Plentiful gaming mouse experience

I tested the G305 X Superlight for several days, and used it to play several games, including Counter-Strike 2, which is a great test for mice given it requires extremely fast and precise movements. I also used the mouse for general browsing and working.

I’ve been PC gaming for over a decade, so I’ve used plenty of mice in that time. I’ve also reviewed a large number of gaming mice before, including other Logitech models.

• First reviewed: August 2026

• Logitech Spot has spent the past 18 months measuring office environment comfort
• Now, it can work with 10 new partners to actively suggest changes
• Its API works with other data, like office floor plans

In 2025, Logitech announced a series of smart sensors designed to monitor the office environment in order to optimize worker productivity and comfort - and now, it has unveiled plans to expand its Spot sensors even further.

Spot has 10 new software and platform integrations, with partners spanning Robin and Zoom.

Ultimately, it means that Spot goes from beyond just displaying metrics in a dashboard, and will now act as a central brain that feeds data into existing workplace management platforms.

Logitech Spot is getting smarter with new integrations

Presence and occupancy, temperature, humidity, CO2 levels, VOCs, PM and barometric pressure are all metrics that Spot analyzes, with Logitech noting the aim is to provide a detailed look at how rooms are being used and what their environmental conditions are like.

With the company's CollabOS and Sync Cloud APIs, third parties can now integrate the smart data directly into the own platforms to adjust how rooms are allocated, check for unused meeting rooms, automatically check guests in, forecast demand and reveal environmental/comfort issues automatically.

Spot's data can also be used in conjunction with third-party software vendors' own data, like office floor plans and historical usage patterns, turning Spot into an accessory that offices should be able to just forget about, without having to interpret the data manually.

"Facilities and IT teams no longer have to guess where to cut costs or invest," Team Workspace Solutions GM Henry Levak said. "By connecting with the tools our customers already use daily, building healthier, automated, and far more efficient workplaces is easier than ever.”

Spot itself is available for $499, but it's also built into some other hardware and requires an active subscription to unlock its full connectivity powers.

• Logitech facing a class action lawsuit over tariff refunds, with the lawsuit alleging the company raised the price of some products to pass the cost of tariffs onto customers
• The US government collected an estimated $166 billion in IEEA tariffs which are to be returned to businesses, but their are no mechanisms in place to return the cost of tariff-inflated goods back to customers
• Nintendo and Sony are also facing lawsuits over tariff cost refunds

Following President Donald Trump’s return to power in January 2025, he almost immediately levied numerous International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEA) tariffs on imports of almost all goods coming into the United States.

According to Trump, the tariffs were imposed to boost domestic production of goods, and increase the purchasing of products manufactured in the US. Somewhat shortsightedly, the US was not able to suddenly change to the mass production of most imported goods and the tariffs were passed on to consumers as part of the price of imported goods.

Many of these and subsequent tariffs were deemed illegal by the Supreme Court of the United States, with around $166 billion in IEEA tariff revenue collected by the government to be refunded to businesses. Unfortunately, many businesses don’t really want to hand that money back to consumers, and Logitech is now being taken to court for it.

Tariffs refunded to businesses but not passed on to consumers

A class action lawsuit has been filed by Cotchett, Pitre & McCarthy, LLP, by the District Court for the Northern District of California, San Jose Division, against Logitech.

The lawsuit alleges Logitech raised the price of many of its products to cover the costs of the import tariffs, but the company has not made it possible for customers to claim back the tariff costs they covered.

As the companies were the ones who paid the tariffs, there is no mechanism in place for consumers to claim back the costs that companies silently imposed on them.

According to the lawsuit, Logitech investors were told by its executives that the price of its products had to be raised to offset the cost of the tariffs.

Around half of the Logitech product catalog saw price rises at around 14%, but the costs of some products were raised by as much as 25%.

Nintendo and Sony also in hot water

While the lawsuit singles out Logitech, numerous other companies have also been accused of raising the costs of goods to cover tariffs and then keeping the refunds for themselves.

For example, Nintendo’s operating profits were reported to be around $902 million between April 1 and June 30. But during the same period the previous year, the operating profit was around $360 million.

While some of this profit increase can be attributed to a boom in games sales and software purchases for the Switch and Switch 2, much of the profit has been alleged to have actually come from tariff refunds.

Nintendo claims to have covered the costs of tariffs itself despite the price of both Switch consoles rising by as much as $50 in 2025.

Nintendo has filed a lawsuit against the US government, demanding that the refunds from the “sweeping” and “constantly changing” tariffs be paid back with interest. Nintendo is also battling a lawsuit in court that demands the tariff refunds are also passed on to consumers.

Sony has been handed an estimated $508 million tariff refund, but raised the prices of key products such as the PlayStation 5 to cover the costs of the importation tariffs. A lawsuit has been filed, but Sony has made no indication that consumers who bought PlayStation consoles at elevated prices will see a dime back.

There's no question about it, the Logitech MX Master 3S is our number one choice for anyone who wants a serious office upgrade. Built specifically for productivity, during our testing, the features on this wireless mouse really impressed us

And right now the Bluetooth version of the Logitech MX Master 3S is down to $85 (was $100) at Amazon. It combines an ergonomic shape with a useful collection of programmable controls and an excellent scroll wheel. Plus Logitech Flow can even move text, images and files between multiple operating systems. In the UK, the MX Master 3S is down to £69 (was £78) at Amazon.

Why we recommend it

The MX Master 3S includes genuinely useful features. MagSpeed scrolling is particularly handy when you're regularly moving through long webpages, spreadsheets and documents, and thumb controls put additional functions within easy reach.

Logi Options+ lets you customize the buttons and create application-specific profiles, so the same controls can perform different jobs depending on what you're doing.

In his glowing 4.5-star review, our expert Ilyas said: "Logitech MX Master 3S can easily be considered the best wireless mouse geared specifically towards enhancing the average user’s workplace productivity."

He went on to say, "With seven silent tactile button inputs that can be customized through Logitech’s own software, the MX Master 3S can be a great tool for office workers who are looking to streamline their productivity. Its 70-day battery life is solid selling point too, as is the inclusion of a USB Type-C charging port located at the front of the device."

Price context & historical value

Amazon's $79.99 price knocks $20 off the usual $99.99 cost, bringing the MX Master 3S down by 20%.

That's actually a very good saving, because it's only $5-$6 dollars above the cheapest it's been on Amazon in a year. The picture is similar in the UK, where the cheapest I've seen it was £65, not much more than the current sale price.

If you're after a quality productivity mouse, this is a good chance to snap up one of the very best at an affordable price.

Should you buy it?

✅ Buy the Logitech MX Master 3S if...

You spend much of your day working at a computer and want more control than a basic mouse offers. The programmable buttons, horizontal thumb wheel and fast scrolling can be particularly useful for spreadsheets, creative applications and navigating large documents.

It's also a strong choice if you work across multiple computers. You can connect three devices over Bluetooth without repeatedly pairing the mouse each time you move between them.

❌ Skip the Logitech MX Master 3S if...

You want a mouse for a spot of gaming. The MX Master 3S is designed around productivity, comfort and control rather than the extremely low weight and high polling rates offered by gaming mice.

The Catch: What to know before you buy

The biggest catch is what's missing from the box. This particular MX Master 3S is sold without a Logi Bolt USB receiver or even a charging cable, so make sure Bluetooth-only connectivity suits your setup before buying.

It's also a substantial productivity mouse. Anyone who prefers a small, simple mouse may find it more hardware than they need. Also, this isn't a great mouse for left-handed users or people with smaller hands.

Logitech Mobi Fold review

The Logitech Mobi Fold is, without question, the weirdest mouse I have ever used in my life.

This tiny, foldable travel mouse is focused on one thing above all: portability. Just like a clamshell phone from the noughties, it can fold in half, allowing you to easily slip it into your pocket if you’re working on the go. But even though the Logitech Mobi Fold’s exceptional portability is its clear USP, I have to ask… is it actually that necessary?

After all, a lot of mice are already highly compact, and if you’re working on the go, you’ve probably got a bag to hold your laptop or tablet, right? I’d bet that your bag can fit a laptop and a mouse, so arguably, the thing that makes this mouse so special isn’t actually that game-changing.

Still, the Mobi Fold has a few interesting features to run through, and you’re surely curious as to how such a strange model feels in use. So, after using the Logitech Mobi Fold as my main mouse for a few days, here’s how I’d rate it — and whether I think it can compete with the best mice around.

First things first, the Mobi Fold is incredibly easy to get set up. There’s a sync button on it that makes linking up to a windows laptop, Mac, or Android device incredibly seamless. There’s also an easy switch feature, making it incredibly speedy to flick between a range of devices.

But after I got set up with the Mobi Fold, and started using it to get some work done I have to say… it wasn’t amazing.

The Mobi Fold exhibits a few key issues that make it feel inferior to a standard compact or productivity mouse. First of all, it has a slightly bizarre build. Its V-shape form makes it feel awkward to grip, and when using it for extended periods, this caused me to feel some discomfort in my hand. It lacks the ergonomics of my everyday mouse, the Razer Viper V3 Pro, and even lacked its fluidity, meaning moving it across my desk felt clunky.

In addition, the touch-controlled scrolling is a bit inconsistent. It doesn’t provide the same tight control of a traditional mechanical scroll wheel, and again feels a bit lacking in terms of fluidity. Don’t get me wrong: it’s totally functional, but if you want the smooth, precise scrolling of a traditional mouse, the Mobi Fold may leave you wanting more.

My final critique is on the feel of the left and right buttons. While these are serviceable, they felt more stiff than I expected them to, especially towards the back and middle of the model. I did appreciate the muted sound of clicking the left and right buttons, but I wish they felt a bit more sensitive.

Despite all of this, there are some clear positives worth pointing out. First of all, the mouse offers great battery life. It supplies a battery life of about 32 days, which easily got me through the work week, meaning I didn’t need to charge it at all during the testing period. Having said that, Logitech says that you can get an extra 22 hours of use from just one minute of quick-charging, making it exceptionally practical for someone like me who often forgets to juice up their devices.

In addition, the Mobi Fold features customizable button controls through the Logi Options+ app. This enables you to adapt pointer speed, set the central touch panel to different functions (like paste, volume controls, or a keyboard shortcut), and more.

In terms of design, I’m also a fan of the rubbery texture of the mouse, which is very pleasant to the touch. It’s also worth noting that 36% of the plastics used in the Graphite colorway of the mouse I used are made from recycled materials. It’s 29% for the Lilac and Off-White variants, which look pretty stylish in my opinion.

Look, the Logitech Mobi Fold does well to stand out from the crowd. Its lightweight and foldable design undoubtedly makes it easy to travel with — even though I’d argue that standard mice are probably portable enough as they are. In addition, the customizable buttons, long battery life, and satisfying feel of the mouse are clear positives.

But for $79.99 / £69.99 / AU$129.95, the Mobi Fold ends up feeling like a relatively poor value for money option. Really, that comes down to one thing: its lackluster performance. With underwhelming ergonomics, as well as slightly stiff scrolling and buttons, the Mobi Fold feels like an idea that’s far more impressive in concept than it is in practice.

Logitech Mobi Fold review: price & release date

• $79.99 / £69.99 / AU$129.95
• Released in June 2026
• Available in four colors

The Logitech Mobi Fold released in June 2026, carrying a list price of $79.99 / £69.99 / AU$129.95. That price means it’s competing in the same price bracket as great models we’ve tested, such as the Keychron M6 8K, but a lot more than our favorite ultra-compact mouse, the Logitech Pop Mouse. It's available in four colors, including Graphite, Off-White, Lilac, and Sand.

How I tested the Logitech Mobi Fold

• Spent days using it as my main mouse
• Tried out its various features
• Took on the go to test its travel credentials

I spent multiple days testing the Logitech Mobi Fold, using it as my main mouse in the office and when working from home.

During my time with the Mobi Fold, I used it for general productivity, exhausted its various features, and even took it on the go to assess its on-the-go credentials. I typically had the mouse connected to my Windows PC, but I also tried it out with an Android phone.

More generally, I’ve spent years testing gadgets here at TechRadar, where I serve as an in-house Senior Reviews Writer. I’ve tried out a wide array of computing accessories, such as the Turtle Beach Command Series KB7 keyboard, as well as gaming gear, premium wireless headphones, power banks, and more.

When it comes to getting the right accessories for my home office, I'm usually focused on not only performance, but also comfort. Like many of us, my mouse and keyboard are key parts of my home working set-up, which is spread across a laptop and external monitor, and using them pretty much all day everyday means I need something that is comfortable to use.

So when I saw that Logitech had released a new keyboard and mouse specifically designed around promoting comfort, it seemed like an obvious choice. The company's Signature Comfort Plus line comes with built-in cushioning, which it says can help increase comfort (unsurprisingly) and a better overall user experience.

The MK880 keyboard and M850L mouse are available in a combo bundle, and I've been using both products for a while now - so how did I get on?

Click happy

I've been a fan of Logitech's MX Master mouse range for some time, and the MX Master 4 for Business is still my go-to for everyday use.

The selling point of the new Logitech Signature Comfort Plus M850L wireless mouse is its added cushioning, which the company described as "something we've never done before".

With a declaration like that, you might be expecting some huge extra addition - but the reality is actually quite a bit more low-key.

Like many of you, I'm guessing that when you use a mouse, your hand covers the top of it, with the base of your palm and your wrist laying flat on the tabletop, mouse mat or whatever you choose.

You might think then, that much like its K8880 keyboard, the cushioning would be at the base of the mouse - however this isn't the case, with the cushioned panel actually sitting halfway across the top, just below the scrolling wheel.

It's clear to see why Logitech has done this - locating what it calls the "palm cushion" there will help ease RSI or other repetitive finger issues, but for me, where the extra help is needed is further down, at the base, like the keyboard.

The M850L also features a smaller, more sculpted shape than the MX Master series, and has built-in side grips to help improve comfort and again boost usability.

I realize this is a personal view, and it definitely didn't hinder my usage of the mouse, but unlike with the keyboard, I felt myself drifting back towards my usual MX Master 4 mouse, which lifts the arm slightly, coupled with the basic £8 cushioned mouse mat from Amazon I've used for years (available from AU$18 on Amazon AU).

And there's absolutely nothing wrong with the M850L - as you'd expect from a top-line Logitech product, it's fast and responsive, connectivity is excellent, and its light and compact build make it excellent for taking on a work trip or commute. There are four programmable buttons which can be assigned to specific tasks or tools, and there's no need for a dongle to connect - everything is done via Bluetooth.

But at £49.99 / AU$99.99 (which some may still think is a bit much for a mouse) on its own, or £99.99 / AU$169.99 with the MK880 keyboard, maybe a bit more extra cushioning in the future, please?

Just my type

Although many of you might initially think of keyboards as dull, identikit tools that just serve a simple purpose, Logitech has been on somewhat of a crusade to disprove that over the past few years.

This is particularly true when it comes to improving ergonomics - as we all know how uncomfortable it can be slamming away at a basic Microsoft keyboard with clacking keys.

I've been using Logitech's amazing Wave Keys device for some time, with it's eye-catching raised design and built-in palm cushioning really making a difference when it comes to comfort.

In some ways, the Signature Comfort Plus MK880 keyboard is a slightly toned-down version of the Wave Keys, offering a more refined look, but including the expected comfort.

It once again features the raised hump in the middle of the keyboard, offering what it says is a more natural typing position, but the keys themselves are far shallower than the Wave Keys, leading to a quieter typing experience.

The built-in palm rest is something we've come to expect from Logitech products over the past few years, but the MK880 really goes above and beyond - rather than just some basic spongey foam like you see in some cheaper options, the cushioning is soft and delicate, with your wrists balancing lightly on top, rather than bouncing off - all again making for a more pleasant typing experience.

Apart from the comfort features, the MK880 is also an excellent all-round keyboard - light and grippy, and easy to connect to your device via Bluetooth, so there's no dongle required.

All in all, the MK880 is a fantastic addition to my workspace, and if you're looking for that extra bit of comfort in your day-to-day work, the £99.99 / AU$169.99 price tag for the keyboard and mouse will pay for itself in the long run.

I spend a lot of time traveling for work, testing laptops, accessories, and other hardware, so I've become very selective about what earns a permanent place in my bag.

These five gadgets are the ones I reach for every trip because they solve real problems without adding much weight, and right now they're all reduced in price on Amazon.

The first thing I never leave home without is Anker's compact 10,000mAh power bank. It's small enough to slip into any bag yet has enough capacity to keep my iPhone 17 Pro and Dell 15 Laptop running through long flights, delayed trains, or full days away from a power outlet. Fast USB-C charging makes topping up devices quick and convenient.

My top business travel gear

Don't travel without these devices

Reliable internet is incredibly important for me, and while I'll often opt for an eSim on my phone, TP-Link's Roam 7 BE3600 Wi-Fi 7 Portable Travel Router lets me create a secure private network from hotel, airport, or public Wi-Fi.

Built-in VPN support adds another layer of security when I'm working remotely or accessing sensitive files.

InnoView's 15.6" portable monitor is another essential piece of my travel setup. The Full HD IPS display gives me a second screen for editing, writing, or managing multiple applications at once, while the integrated stand and protective sleeve make it easy to pack and use anywhere.

I always stow Logitech's compact M240 Silent Bluetooth Mouse in my bag. It's useful for navigating my screen and silent clicks are welcome when working in cafés, airport lounges, or shared workspaces.

The long battery life means I rarely need to think about replacing batteries between trips.

Finally, I always carry a Samsung T9 Portable SSD. With transfer speeds reaching up to 2,000MB/s, it's ideal for backing up photos, moving large video files, or carrying projects between devices.

Its rugged construction, hardware encryption, and broad compatibility with laptops, desktops, cameras, and even smartphones make it one of the most useful accessories I own.

None of these products are particularly flashy, but every one of them has earned a place in my travel bag by making work easier, more secure, and more productive.

I’m not ashamed to admit that I have absolutely terrible desk posture — and I know I’m not alone in hunching over my keyboard and mouse like an old man at the steering wheel.

The global workforce stands at around 3.7 billion people, and as much as 20% of that total are employed in desk-based jobs. In a recent survey of over 5,000 desk workers, 56% of respondents said they finish their workday experiencing pain or discomfort, and if we apply that figure to the entire planet, as many as 400 million people would say the same thing. Yikes.

Thankfully, there are several ways to alleviate desk-based pain, and while I’d recommend checking out our guides to the best office chairs and best standing desks if you’re struggling with neck and back discomfort, I can personally vouch for two inexpensive products that have genuinely improved my wrist pain: the Logitech Lift mouse and Wave Keys keyboard.

I’d originally planned to write about these two accessories, which I started using in May, in July (so I could say I’d tested them for a full two months), but I’m jumping the gun here because both are currently on sale for Amazon Prime Day.

In the US, the Logitech Lift is now just $56.99 (was $79.99), while the Logitech Wave Keys is $54.13 (was $69.99). In the UK, the Logitech Lift is now £45.99 (was £69.99), while the Logitech Wave Keys is just £51.99 (was £69.99). Take it from me: these are small prices to pay for accessories you will use almost every day.

Let’s start with the Lift mouse. I didn’t have a problem with traditional mice for the best part of 20 years, but at the beginning of 2026, I began to notice aching pain in my elbow and wrist after using my mouse for only a few hours. A quick Google search revealed that palm-down mice force our forearms into a twisted, unnatural position, which can lead to repetitive strain injuries (RSIs), as well as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and Cubital Tunnel Syndrome.

I definitely have a case of the latter — I’m always resting my elbow on the arm of my chair, compressing my ulnar nerve in the process — but I sought to avoid the constant torsion of my forearm by switching to a vertical mouse, hoping that this was the cause of at least some of my wrist pain.

Vertical mice like the Logitech Lift neutralize wrist and forearm alignment, putting your hand at a 57-degree angle and in what Logitech calls a “natural handshake position.” There’s definitely a learning curve to get used to this new position. Initially, I found myself subconsciously gripping the Lift in a palm-down orientation (yes, like a normal mouse), and I struggled with a perceived lack of clicker accuracy. I also worried that it was a little too small for my hands (Logitech recommends the Lift for “small to medium hands”).

But once I learned to move with my forearm, and not bend my wrist side-to-side, the Lift became objectively more comfortable to use than my regular mouse. I’m not going to sit here and say it’s eliminated all my wrist pain — again, I still (stupidly) rest my elbow on the arm of my chair, which messes with my ulnar nerve — but I’m definitely able to work for longer periods before needing to pull up a two-minute wrist stretch routine on YouTube.

The Logitech Wave Keys keyboard is the perfect companion to the Lift mouse. It’s essentially a keyboard with a raised section (a ‘wave’) above the space bar and a width-spanning cushion for your wrists.

The idea is the same: the Wave’s design places your hands and forearms in a more natural typing position, and you can rest your wrists on a surface that’s much more comfortable than a hard desk. There’s also almost no learning curve with this accessory, since the change versus a normal keyboard is more subtle, but as such, I’d say it’s not as crucial a purchase as the Lift (so if you’re choosing between the two, go for the mouse).

Comfort aside, the Wave keyboard is genuinely satisfying to use. The keys have a nice level of feedback to them, and a nostalgic typewriter-style sound, but the keyboard as a whole is still very much built for modern wants and needs: the function keys, for instance, are customizable, and you can even create shortcuts for repetitive actions.

In other words, you can tweak the Wave keyboard to your specific working habits, and if you pair it with the Lift mouse, you’ll be working faster and more comfortably.

As a reminder, both products are on sale now in the US and UK for Prime members, and Amazon’s Prime Day sale ends at midnight on Friday, June 29, so you’ll need to move fast if you’re keen to add either to your basket. Happy shopping!

Finally, Rockstar Games has announced GTA 6's price, which retails at $79.99 (likely £75 / AU$114.40), and the excitement has unsurprisingly reached an all-time high among gamers.

With the game now locked in for a November 19 launch, there are plenty of ways to get prepared for gaming's biggest event in decades. Whether that's via buying a PS5, PS5 Pro, Xbox Series X, or Xbox Series S console, or acquiring necessary accessories, this announcement comes at a perfect time.

It's Prime Day, and if you're a PS5 owner, you're in luck, as several deals on headsets and controllers will certainly come in handy once the long-awaited day finally arrives later this November.

First and foremost, the Razer Raiju V3 Pro is available on Amazon for $144 (was $219.99), with a strong 35% discount, making this top-of-the-line controller much more affordable.

You can find the Razer Raiju V3 Pro available in the UK on Amazon for £142.08 (was £199.99), at a slightly lower price.

If you're all set on your controller setup already, and you need a gaming headset to enjoy GTA 6's immersive audio, look no further.

The Logitech G Pro X 2 wireless gaming headset is available on Amazon for $199 (was $279.99), thanks to a 29% discount. This is a gaming headset that will keep you locked into your games for hours, only requiring 5 minutes of charging for 1 hour of playtime, compatible with PC, PS5, PS4, and the Nintendo Switch 2.

Another big highlight is the Razer BlackShark V3, which is available for $85.49 (was $149.99), a wireless gaming headset that prioritizes great surround sound audio, long battery life, and ultra-low latency.

Effectively, there's something for everyone this Prime Day — and it's one of the best times to prepare for one of the biggest games of all-time and celebrate your GTA 6 pre-order.

• Logitech's new foldable mouse comes with 30 days' battery life and promises to reduce muscle strain
• Only one-quarter of professionals say thet carry a mouse to public spaces - even though three-quarters actually use one
• Mobi Fold is available from $79.99 / £69.99 and works with most major operating systems

Logitech has launched its first-ever foldable mouse, designed to help hybrid workers and professionals who find themselves working while travelling.

The company says the new Logitech Mobi Fold plugs an 'on-the-go productivity gap' where workers might prefer to use a separate mouse, but leave it at home over portability concerns.

Thanks to the folding mechanism, it can collapse down into nearly half its size, to make it easier to carry in laptop sleeves, travel organizers and other small bags.

Logitech Mobi Fold

Besides making it easier to fit into small spaces, the action of folding it what controls the mouse's power too, with automatic power-on upon unfolding and automatic power-off upon folding. This feature means it doesn't need any additional buttons, but more importantly, it makes power management easier on-the-go to extend battery life.

And on that note, it'll go up to 30 days between charges or, in one single minute, it'll gain up to 22 hours' battery life.

And the problem is real – so Logitech will have you believe. Three-quarters (72%) of professionals own a mouse, but only one-quarter (26%) use one when working in public spaces.

The company will also have you believe that its Mobi Fold mouse reduces muscle strain by 22% compared with using a laptop's built-in trackpad.

In an announcement, Logitech boasted of the mouse's Adaptive Touch Scrolling feature, which automatically balances precision and speed depending on what the user is navigating. Users can also customize two programmable buttons via the Logi Options+ App for things like switching apps or taking screenshots.

It'll also connect to up to three devices via Bluetooth and works across all major operating systems, including Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, Linux, iPadOS and Android. ChromeOS and Android users also benefit from near-instant pairing with the Mobi Fold becoming the first input device to receive Google's Fast Pair certification.

It's available to buy now, with consumer models commanding a $79.99 / £69.99 price tag and the business version costing $89.99 / £74.99 due to some business-focused additions, like Sync support for streamlined IT monitoring.

• Logitech unveils a brand new folding mouse
• The Mobil Fold is small and durable
• It promises more than a month of battery life

I’ve had all manner of computer mice over the years, but by far my favorite is a travel mouse. They come in so many different shapes, sizes, and configurations. I fondly remember a promotional USB travel mouse, perhaps no bigger than my thumb, that featured a spring-loaded retractable cable. When that died after multiple road trips, I switched to a Microsoft Surface Arc Bluetooth travel mouse. It was darn near perfect. In travel mode, it was flat, and when you wanted to use it, you bent it to a perfect, palm-hugging curve. That one died after years of business travel.

So you can imagine my excitement when Logitech showed me its new Mobi Fold ($79.99 / £69.99 / AU$129.95). As the name suggests, it is a truly foldable Bluetooth travel mouse.

The company claims that while roughly 76% of us own mice, only 26% take them on the road. The palm-sized Mobi Fold is small enough to slip into almost any pocket and join you in your wanderlust.

When folded, the Logitech Mobile Fold resembles in size and shape a screenless Samsung Galaxy Z Flip. It unfolds to a roughly 60-degree curve that neatly fits under your palm. It has a pair of silent clickers — all the better to not annoy your fellow passengers — and between them is a wide touch-sensitive button that you can use to scroll through on-screen content quickly or a line at a time.

The body is covered in a soft rubber material that feels good against your skin, and Logitech claims that Mobi Fold is durable and ready to accompany you on the road for up to 15 years.

In the near-term, battery life is rated for 33 days on a charge, but if you’re in a pinch, a minute of charge can net you 22 hours of operation. You also don’t have to worry about the battery running down when the mouse is folded up in your backpack or pocket. It automatically powers on when unfolded and shuts off when folded up.

If you regularly switch between, say, a desktop, laptop, and tablet, you’ll be pleased with the Mobi Fold’s quick-switch capabilities for up to three devices. There's also the Logitech Plus companion app that you can use to customize buttons to open certain apps, take screenshots, copy and paste, and perform other operations.

I got a chance to try the mouse with a few different systems and apps. It doesn’t need a special surface or mouse pad to work, and I found it comfortable and responsive. I folded and unfolded it repeatedly and noticed that the fold feels firm, not flimsy. There’s enough tension that you won’t worry about the two halves flopping about.

Yes, I even accidentally dropped the ultra-portable mouse, and it survived without issue.

Mobi Fold comes in four colors: Graphite, Off-white, Lilac, and Sand, and should start shipping this week.

If you only get one office upgrade for this year's Prime Day, make it this one - the Logitech MX Master 3S is now $90 (was $120) at Amazon. This is the best wireless mouse we've ever tested, period, and it's specifically engineered to boost productivity at work.

It's designed for business and creative professionals, comes loaded with features like the intuitive MagSpeed technology and a very long battery life, and an 8000 DPI Track Anywhere Sensor that's suitable for every kind of monitor from 1080p to 8K. In the UK, right now the cheapest I've found the Master MX 3S is £77.01 (was £89.99) at Amazon.

What really makes this wireless mouse stand out, though - beyond that exceptional deal price - is the customization. During our tests, we found it made using office software like Excel and Photoshop an absolute breezed. Not one to be missed if you value staying productive at work.

Today's top Logitech mouse deal

Comfort remains one of the biggest reasons people choose the MX Master series. The ergonomic shape is built for extended use, helping reduce strain during long work sessions while keeping all important controls within easy reach.

The MX Master 3S uses an 8,000 DPI optical sensor that can track on virtually any surface, including glass. Whether you're working at a desk, on a conference table, or in a coffee shop, the mouse maintains precise control without needing a dedicated mouse pad.

One of our favorite features is MagSpeed scrolling which Logitech says delivers scrolling that is faster, more precise, and quieter than traditional mouse wheels.

In our rave review we said the "Logitech MX Master 3S can easily be considered the best wireless mouse geared specifically towards enhancing the average user’s workplace productivity."

The Quiet Click buttons help create a more pleasant working environment. Click noise is dramatically reduced while maintaining the familiar tactile response users expect from a premium mouse.

The MX Master 3S can connect to up to three devices and works across Windows, macOS, Chrome OS, and Linux systems. For users who regularly switch between multiple devices, that alone can be a major time saver.

Logitech's FLOW functionality takes things even further by allowing users to move between compatible computers and transfer text, files, and images seamlessly.

Battery life is excellent as well, with Logitech rating the rechargeable battery for up to 70 days on a full charge. USB-C charging means topping up the battery is as simple as it gets.

The Logitech MX Master 3S remains one of the best productivity mice available. With ergonomic comfort, ultra-precise tracking, quiet operation, and multi-device support, this Amazon deal makes an already popular mouse even more appealing.

For even more choices take a look at our roundup of the best computing mice. Spoiler alert, the MX Master 3S is in the top spot.

Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike: Two-minute review

I should probably preface this review by saying that I've long been a fan of Logitech's mice, having used a G502 Lightspeed Wireless as my daily driver for more than five years. In fact, I love it so much that when mine finally gave up the ghost back in 2024, I literally just bought another identical model.

If you're familiar with my work, you might suspect a slight degree of bias in this review – and I'm sure that the coveted five-star rating above won't assuage those suspicions.

But honestly? I wasn't expecting much from the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike. The design is pretty simple, just a near-symmetrical chassis with two thumb buttons and a basic scroll wheel, plus a mildly futuristic aesthetic that you'll either find appealing or obnoxious. I've seen a hundred mice like this before, I thought upon unboxing it for the first time.

That was before I knew about HITS. The 'haptic inductive trigger system' is the main selling point of the Pro X2 Superstrike, and it's really something special: user-tunable actuation for the two main mouse buttons, with rapid trigger reset points to minimize latency. In other words, you can personally tweak the tactility of these clickers to exactly how you want them to feel, and it's frankly awesome. It's reminiscent of the satisfying feedback of hall effect buttons, and the mechanics behind it are similar as well, but I'll get into that later on in this review.

HITS aside (but really, these buttons absolutely rock), the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike is just a staggeringly competent piece of hardware design. The rounded, symmetrical shape is very comfortable in the hand, and the total package weight of just 61g combined with smooth-gliding UHMWPE feet makes it feel great to use even on lower sensitivities. But with a 44,000 DPI sensor and 8K polling rate mode, it's well-equipped for fans of twitchy online shooters.

I'm just gonna say it: this is straight up one of the best gaming mice money can buy right now. Speaking of money...

Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike: Price & availability

• How much does it cost? $179.99 / £159.99 / AU$299.95
• When is it available? Available now
• Where can you get it? Available globally

Yeah, this hurts a little. Clocking in at $179.99 / £159.99 / AU$299.95, there's no avoiding the fact that a lot of PC gamers will be priced out of enjoying the perfect clicks of the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike.

It's similarly priced to the Razer Deathadder V4 Pro, which we featured in our list of the best mice, and is a comparable premium esports-focused mouse with a simple, lightweight design – though it uses optical switches instead, which are durable and responsive but a lot noisier.

However – and it's not often that I say this – I do actually think this is a product that manages to fully justify its price tag. The Superstrike is something entirely new, but even aside from that, it's simply an excellent product in almost every way.

Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike: Design

• Simple but comfortable design
• Robust build quality
• No left-handed version

I suspect that the ultra-modern design of the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike will be a turn-off for some potential buyers, but I like it. No rainbow RGB here, just a lone LED indicating your DPI preset. Stamping the product name all over the device makes it feel like something out of a utilitarian corporate dystopia – a vibe I'm fine with for my hardware aesthetic, though I'd rather steer clear from a societal standpoint.

Aesthetics aside, the chassis design isn't anything particularly earth-shattering, but you don't mess with a proven winner. The shape is essentially the same as Logitech G's previous Pro X Superlight 2, a symmetrical design with a gentle curve across it that fits comfortably in the palm. I've got pretty big hands, so I asked my (smaller-handed) partner to give it a try, and he reported that it felt very comfortable to use as well. I might say that the shape is somewhat better suited to claw- and fingertip-style grips, but as a palm-grip user, I found it comfortable even during extended gaming sessions.

Despite weighing barely more than 60 grams, the Pro X2 Superstrike doesn't feel flimsy in the slightest. The whole thing feels well-constructed, with a physical power switch and magnetic cover on the underside that conceals a slot to store the USB dongle. The feet are UHMWPE, tough and low-friction, and a small cutout at the front of the mouse houses the USB-C port for charging or wired use.

The main buttons have a weighty, tactile feel to them, while the scroll wheel offers firm rotation and a quiet but robust click. The side buttons are a bit softer, but still have a decent level of physical feedback and are well-spaced – I often like to map actions to these thumb buttons in shooters, and I didn't experience any misclicks. The mouse is very slightly front-heavy, presumably due to the HITS switch assembly underneath the two main buttons, and while I didn't have any issues with this, users who regularly lift their mouse clear of the mat may find that it requires a bit of getting used to.

The sensor is the Logitech G HERO 2 sensor, found in a wide range of the brand's premium gaming mice. It supports up to 44,000 DPI with up to 88G acceleration registration, and I can attest from using other mice with the same sensor that it's very reliable. For those seeking the absolute best low-latency performance, the box includes an adapter for you to connect the dongle to the power cable and place it directly on your desk, but it worked fine just plugged into the back of my PC, too.

The matte plastic shell does a good job of repelling fingerprint smudges (even from my sweaty hands during a heatwave that hit the UK while I was reviewing the Pro X2 Superstrike), and the casing is generally sturdy. It feels like a product that was built to last. Honestly, my only criticism here is the lack of a left-handed model; I'm a southpaw myself, and while I've adapted to using a mouse with my right hand, the same can't be said of every left-hander out there.

Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike: Performance

• HITS switches are truly phenomenal
• Fast and smooth movement is great for shooters
• Logitech G Hub software works well

Alright, let me talk about these switches properly for a moment. The way HITS works is essentially the same principle as hall effect keyboard switches, using metal plates and copper coils carrying an electromagnetic current with an analog sensor that precisely measures the click input.

Now, this means that you get incredibly fast input response, on par with the optical switches that are becoming more popular in gaming mice, but the real takeaway here is the adjustable actuation. Because you're not pressing a physical switch but rather moving a bit of metal up and down, you can use Logitech's G Hub software to manually adjust the actuation point. If you want hair-trigger actuation, it's yours. Prefer only firm, deep clicks to register? It can do that too, and everything in between.

The HITS design also allows you to adjust the trigger reset points (put simply, how soon the button can register another input when you start to lift your finger after clicking), and with no physical switch involved, the Pro X2 Superstrike allows for ultra-rapid-fire inputs. If you're using a semi-automatic gun, the only limit on fire rate is whatever the game itself imposes.

Without an actual switch to click underneath these buttons, there's no tactile feedback. In fact, when I first received the Pro X2 Superstrike and clicked the buttons before turning it on, I was immediately worried that it would feel horrible to use. That's where the 'haptic' part of 'haptic inductive trigger system' comes in: when you click, the button releases a tiny vibration that mimics the click input of a traditional mouse. It sounds silly, but it genuinely works - and like the actuation and trigger resets, you can adjust this too, or even turn it off if you're so inclined. But I wouldn't – it's really quite good once you get used to it.

The best part? They're ridiculously quiet. If you're noise-sensitive or you're a late-night gamer like me, a near-silent mouse is a genuine boon. In fact, Logitech, if you're reading this: please make a G502 with HITS (and then send it directly to my home address). I adore the Superstrike, but I do miss my thumb rest for everyday work.

Alright, enough about the HITS. Overall, the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike feels excellent for gaming, gliding smoothly across my mouse mat and delivering precise, latency-free inputs thanks to the Logitech Lightspeed dongle.

The G Hub software gives you plenty of sliders to slide, letting you adjust the usual settings like sensitivity and polling rate, as well as create profiles for individual games depending on your preferences. The 8K polling mode is something of a gimmick that likely won't make much of a difference to all but the sweatiest esports lovers, but it's there if you want it (though it's oddly not available in wired mode; you have to use the included dongle).

I stuck with the defaults for most of the games I tested, but I did make custom profiles for Valorant and Marathon to make the most of the super-reactive HERO 2 sensor. You can also map button input combos as macros, which was particularly useful for adjusting the DPI manually, as there's no dedicated DPI button here.

Did it make me better at shooting? No, my aim is still aggressively mid, but I certainly felt better playing with the Pro X2 Superstrike. After tweaking the HITS actuation to accept feather-touch inputs with an equally low reset point and strong haptic feedback, plinking hostile players at range with a precision rifle in Marathon felt gratifying.

The battery life is also solid, with Logitech claiming 90 hours of use on a single charge. I found this held up; I charged the mouse to full after unboxing it, and it was still kicking after a week of work and gaming.

Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike: Also consider

How I tested the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike

I traded out my usual Logitech G502 Lightspeed Wireless for the Pro X2 Superstrike for a total of eight days while putting together this review, and guess what... I'm still using it. Not for everyday work (I value a thumb rest too much for that), but it's currently perched on the corner of my desk for whenever I load up Marathon or Warframe.

During my eight-day testing period, I used the Superstrike for both my regular day-to-day work for TechRadar (which, in mouse-specific terms, mostly involves a lot of clicking on links and highlighting text) and for everything I use my PC for during my off hours. This is mostly gaming, with a bit of mucking about in Discord and Scrivener for personal projects. Aside from the games I've already mentioned in this review, I also tested the Pro X2 Superstrike in Overwatch, Apex Legends, and Tiny Tina's Wonderlands (yes, I know I'm late to that particular party – I'll get around to Borderlands 4 eventually).

First reviewed May 2026

• Logitech unveils new Signature Comfort Plus mouse and keyboard series
• New equipment features built-in cushioning for comfier all-day usage
• Also includes new AI tools, customizations and more

Logitech has unveiled a new flagship mouse and keyboard with an addition so simple you almost can't believe it's never been done before - a cushion.

The company has unveiled the Logitech Signature Comfort Plus mouse and keyboard, its latest addition for home and work, offering extra comfort and efficiency on the tasks that matter most.

Available from June 2026 in graphite, off-white, and black, the Signature Comfort Plus palm cushion mouse is on sale for $49.99, with a combo including the keyboard osting $109.99 respectively.

Comfort Plus

Logitech says its new release looks to offer hybrid workers a smoother experience when transitioning between home and office locations, noting that now the two are often located in the same place, the last thing users need is technology complicating life further.

More comfortable technology has always been a keen consideration for business users, with reports of RSI and other conditions soaring in recent years.

To combat this, Logitech has developed the Logitech Signature Comfort Plus series - including its first mouse with a built-in palm cushion.

Situated at the base of the mouse, the company says its cushion has a sculpted shape to naturally fit your hand, alongside rubber side grips and a thumb support area which all makes the device a lot more pleasant to use.

This goes alongside its existing customizable AI tools, allowing users to map specific functions to the mouse's side buttons and haptic feedback functions.

Logitech also says the mouse will work with nearly any OS around today, and can switch between up to three devices instantly, with no need to connect via a dongle.

Logitech has released embedded cushion keyboards before (I'm currently using one right now), but its new edition comes with a few extra perks and tweaks to make it even more comfortable to use.

This includes a new curved design to allow for a more natural typing position, adjustable tilt legs to customize the angle of typing, and a dual-foam palm rest for improved comfort.

The keyboard also features a dedicated AI key for fast access to your tool of choice, as well as dedicated video chat keys to quickly launch and edit conferencing tools, alongside new smart actions to automate actions with a single click or keystroke.

Logitech has also continued its bid to use recyclable materials throughout, with the Comfort Plus plastic components containing between 49% and 77% certified post-consumer recycled plastic, and are designed for long battery life, reducing the frequency of battery changes.

“People now spend long, full days at their desks, constantly moving between tasks, screens, and personal moments,” said Art O'Gnimh, General Manager of Mice & Keyboard Solutions Group at Logitech.

“These are tools that don’t ask for attention, they give it back, removing small distractions and adding comfort so everything feels smoother and more effortless.”

• Logitech MX Master 4 adds Windows 11 Advanced Haptics
• Addition brings extra feedback for users across a series of tasks
• More features will be coming soon

If you've ever felt that you aren't truly connected to the documents, spreadsheets and slide decks you produce at work, then good news - help is on the way.

Logitech has revealed that its flagship MX Master 4 mouse will now be integrated with Microsoft's Advanced Haptics for Windows 11, giving you all the extra feedback you could ever want.

The news means Windows 11 users can feel subtle vibration feedback during previously mundane everyday actions like snapping and resizing windows, or aligning objects in PowerPoint.

Haptics up in your mouse

Logitech says there's no extra software upgrades or downloads required to enable the new capabilities, just a quick firmware update in its Logi Options+ platform, using the latest updated Windows 11 version.

Existing users can access the feature now, but there will also be new units shipping in Autumn 2026 which will support the feature out-of-the box, with new support for additional haptic feedback coming to both Windows 11 and third-party applications soon.

“With advanced haptics in Windows 11, everyday interactions are more responsive, clear, and natural,” says Dave Dame, Senior Director of Human Centered Design, Microsoft. “MX Master 4 delivers that experience from day one, extending interactions beyond the screen and setting a new bar for how hardware and software come together.”

Released in September 2025, the MX Master 4 is undoubtedly Logitech's best mouse to date - I've been using one for several months now.

Haptics were a large selling point at the launch, promising to give users more interaction with their accessory across a range of tasks. Situated under where the user's thumb rests, the mouse's haptic pad can be customized to provide interaction on a variety of tasks, from scrolling to selection and navigation.

“Logitech is at the forefront of haptic innovation and, by working in close collaboration with Microsoft, we ensure our users are the first to experience the next generation of productivity," says Art O’Gnimh, General Manager of Mouse and Keyboard Solutions at Logitech.

"We integrated advanced haptic hardware into the MX Master 4 ahead of the curve, anticipating a shift toward more immersive operating systems. With the launch of Windows 11, that engineering foresight pays off. We have delivered a zero-friction, meaningful experience that remains the only one of its kind in the industry.”

I've spotted some great webcam deals over at Amazon that are perfect for professionals and content creators who want to look their best and feel confident presenting on camera.

My number one pick has to be the Insta360 Link 2 4K webcam, now £159 (was £200) at Amazon. But it's not the only webcam that's got a big discount in the surprise Tech Week sale.

Alongside a range of Insta360 deals, Logitech and Obsbot have also cut prices on HD and 4K webcams. So, while the Insta360 Link 2 is my top choice - it earned 4.5 stars in our review, after all, you can check out all my favourite deals on webcams below.

Today's best Insta306 webcam deal

The Link 2 is a phenomenally good 4K webcam (and even better at this price). We scored it 4.5 stars out of a possible 5. It's compact, elegantly designed, with a high-quality build. Video quality is also exceptionally high, letting you stream up to 4K UHD at 30fps.

It's jam-packed with essential features, including AI motion tracking that keeps you in the frame, gesture controls for operating the camera functions hands-free, and DeskView, which lets you flip the camera to look straight down at your desk.

One of the most interesting features we found in our review is the whiteboard mode. If you're lecturing or presenting (as our reviewer was), this is a golden tool. Place corner markers on your whiteboard, and with a single gesture, the Link 2 automatically zooms and corrects the whiteboard’s angle to fill the frame for your viewers.

The only real issue we found was the AI noise-cancelling microphone, which was decent, but if you're using this for more than business calls, you'll likely want to get a dedicated mic or use a headset with a built-in microphone.

Overall, though, it's a superb 4K webcam that's tailored for professional use - from business meetings and presentations to content creation and streaming.

It's worth quoting this passage from our review in full, so you know what to expect:

"Having used the Insta360 Link 2 for a couple of lectures and web meetings, it’s very obvious that the video streaming quality is exceptionally high, with all the usual blurred backgrounds and AI-enhanced self-beautification features. What makes this one of the best webcams I've used is that when it's used as a mini PTZ on top of your monitor, able to follow you around (unlike the similar but static Insta360 Link 2C). For all manner of streaming uses, this is actually a relatively affordable option, with features comparable to many more expensive alternatives."

Drawing in 3D inside an Apple Vision Pro with the fairly excellent Logitech Muse accessory is making me rethink what I know about art.

I've been drawing for most of my life, and I'm an okay, if not passable, draftsman. As a child, I worked with crayons, graduating to pens and pencils in my teens, and charcoal and paint in college. In the late 1980s, I started drawing on the computer using a mouse, and later a Wacom tablet and digital stylus. For the last dozen years or so I've been drawing on the iPad and with an Apple Pencil.

When VR arrived, I tried a few 3D drawing apps, but struggled with the interfaces and, especially, using the controllers to place lines in virtual three-dimensional space.

I've even tried it in the Vision Pro, usually pinching my thumb and index finger to indicate where the point of my virtual drawing implement is supposed to be; it's never been a great experience.

Now, though, the arrival of the Logitech Muse ($129.95 / £119.95 / A$229.95) for Vision Pro is set to change the creative experience in Apple's spatial computing headset.

The cigar-sized, Bluetooth digital drawing accessory, which arrived on my desk last week, months after Logitech first announced it, is custom-built for Vision Pro, and can work with a variety of native visionOS apps.

Roughly the same length as a standard Apple Pencil, the all-black Logitech Muse is considerably thicker, but it achieves some level of ergonomic comfort thanks to its light weight and tapered cylindrical shape. There are two buttons on one side and one large button on the back end, which I only used in combination with one of the other buttons for pairing with my Vision Pro.

Getting started

Setup is straightforward. I charged it via the exposed USB-C port, and when it was done I held those two buttons down until the Logitech Muse buzzed into life.

Inside my Vision Pro (M5 edition), I navigated to the Bluetooth settings, located the Muse in the listing, and paired it with the headset.

Logitech recommended a few different test apps, including Spatial Analogue, an almost CAD-level project-based design app for collaborating on complex projects. In it, I could use the Muse to mark up designs. I drew some straight lines in 3D space, but none of it got my creative juices flowing.

I gave Crayon a shot, but it kept telling me to put down the Logitech Muse for better control of the interface. Finally, I loaded AirDraw, a powerful 3D art tool that seems almost perfectly built for the Logitech Muse.

Drawing in space

Your experience drawing within AriDraw is defined largely by the menu choices you make. You can have smooth, continuous lines that float in space, for instance, or ones that react to gravity and drop to the floor as soon as you stop drawing.

To start drawing a line, you hold one of the two side buttons. In AirDraw, the one nearer the plastic tip created a thinner line, and the larger button made a larger blob. AirDraw also provides ample controls to choose line thickness, which was also, in my experience, defined by the speed of my stroke. I appreciated that my gold ink blob appeared to emanate directly from the Logitech Muse tip. I tried, by the way, to move quickly enough to keep my lines relatively thin.

Many of the lines, colors, and line skins offer highly reflective surfaces. If you look closely, you'll notice that the lines are reflecting your environment, as the Vision Pro's many cameras deliver real-world details to the app.

Drawing in three dimensions is a challenge, especially when I switched from drawing a rudimentary gold cage to trying my hand at drawing a human head.

First, I switched the color to a non-reflective black, and then chose the thinnest line thickness. To help orient myself, I held the Muse over a tabletop and drew a circle that would serve as the head's base.

I forced myself to step back and stop looking at the lines from a typical forward perspective and started looking from side to side, and from the top down. This let me see my project as more of the wireframe I hoped to construct.

Next, I drew a series of vertical lines trailing from that base to the neck and then to the back, sides, and front of the head. Next, I moved to one side and drew an ear, and then circled 180 degrees and drew another ear on the opposite side.

It was not great, but as some of it started coming together I got excited, realizing that if I thought and worked differently, I could make 3D VR art, and I do credit Logitech Muse with the result.

There's no way I could have ever achieved even this rather messy result by pinching my fingers and tracing out lines; my vision would've been partially occluded by my fist. The pen made it easier to see where the digital ink would appear, and whether or not I was achieving the desired result.

I'm not saying that the Logitech Muse finally makes the Vision Pro worth it — the headset is still far too expensive for most consumers. However, digital artists looking to push the envelope, and perhaps create one-of-a-kind 3D artwork, might be intrigued — and if they give it a try, I'd wager they won't want to stop.

If your work-from-home or studying setup needs an upgrade to improve your productivity, Logitech has discounted a wide range of its products over at Amazon Australia, headlined by its MX range of mice and keyboards.

The mice in particular received some sizable discounts, including all-time low prices on the MX Vertical and MX Ergo S, as well as some that were in our best mouse in Australia buying guide.

Also discounted are Logitech’s entry-level offerings, with prices as low as AU$8 for this wired mouse (and AU$14 for this wired keyboard to complete the set) – which you could consider if you’re on a serious budget or if you’re in the office a lot more than when you work from home.

In any case, I would still highly recommend splurging a little bit more on the MX mice for their ergonomics and extra features, and these discounts should make them a lot easier to justify the upgrade.

• Logitech has revealed a new wireless gaming headset, the G325 Lightspeed
• It costs $79.99 / £69.99 and offers high resolution 24-bit audio
• It's available now via the Logitech website and other retailers

Gaming hardware brand Logitech G has unveiled its latest wireless gaming headset, the Logitech G325 Lightspeed.

Retailing for just $79.99 / £69.99, it's a surprisingly affordable new model that's intended to deliver premium features at a relatively modest price. Its most significant specs include high resolution 24-bit audio and seamless built-in microphone.

It's designed to let you "play and chill anywhere" according to the brand, with a comfortable and stylish design that looks more like a pair of music listening cans than you average gaming gear. It's available in three colorways too: lilac, black, and white.

In terms of battery life, you can expect more than 24 hours of continuous use from a single charge. This is far behind the staggering 300+ hours offered by more premium alternatives like the HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless, but certainly not bad for the price.

It supports multiple platforms including PC, consoles, and mobile via the Lightspeed wireless dongle or Bluetooth 5.2. On-headset controls should allow you to switch between the dongle and Bluetooth effortlessly, letting you quickly swap between a gaming session and unwinding with music.

“We want all gamers to have premium experiences,” said Logitech G general manager Ujesh Desai on the launch. “That's why we packed so much into the new G325 headset. It's got a super comfortable design, long battery life, great audio, and works across PC, console, and mobile. It's designed for gamers who love to play across a variety of platforms.”

You can buy the Logitech G325 Lightspeed now via the Logitech website, or at Argos if you're in the UK.

Great value, but competition is strong

The $79.99 / £69.99 price tag is certainly on the lower end by Logitech G standards, but it does mean the G325 Lightspeed will be up against some pretty stiff competition in the gaming headset space.

Favorite wired models like the HyperX Cloud III or Razer BlackShark V2 X come in around that price, and are easy to find for substantially less on sale if you're willing to give up wireless connectivity.

Logitech's own G435 Lightspeed is also a viable alternative, as it's wireless and frequently discounted to around the $50 / £30 mark. You lose a significant chunk of battery life compared to the G325 Lightspeed, but still get a similarly attractive design and the multi-platform compatibility.

I'm certainly keen to spend some time with this new arrival to see how it stacks up against its peers.

Sometimes it's easy to forget how important a good computer mouse is - for many of us, it's still the best way to interact with our devices, whether that's a laptop, mini PC or even a full-blown workstations.

Logitech's MX Master series has long been a standard-setter for the workplace mouse, and I've been a fan for years, owning both the original MX Master and MX Master 3 devices.

Having recently gone hands-on for an initial preview of the new MX Master 4 device, announced in October 2025, I've now been able to try it out for a bit longer - so how does it stand up to the test?

Hands-on

Well, the short answer is yes. As mentioned, I've used several generations of the MX Master series in the past, and this new model is a major step forward in terms of comfort and features.

The smooth rubber surface is genuinely pleasant to lay your hand on top of, and doesn't attract dust or dirt during the day. It feels almost moulded to your hand's grip, and you won't finish up a working day with stiff fingers or a sore wrist.

The MX Master 4 glides over whichever surface you're using - I've tried it out on a variety of mousemats of varying materials and thickness, as well as my own desk top and dining room table, and it's responsive and quick to adjust in every case. It's also remarkably light and nimble, despite being arguably larger than your basic office mouse, meaning it won't take up too much room on your desk, or in a bag when transported around.

Excitingly, the MX Master 4 is the first model to feature haptic feedback, giving users more interaction with their accessory thanks to a new pad where your thumb rests.

The feature can be customized to provide interaction on a variety of tasks, from scrolling to selection and navigation - and I can confirm it does give you that extra nudge - although the first few times it happens, you will be surprised.

The other new addition is the new Actions Ring feature, a new overlay tool which allows users to map a number of tasks or functions, to be displayed with a single click, lowering the need for repetitive mouse movements such as scrolling through menus or interfaces.

I'm a pretty active user of a range of common office software, so thought this tool would be a great addition for me - but to be honest, after an initial burst of activity (and quite a few accidental misclicks) I did turn it off - but it might be a real time-saver for other users.

The MX Master 4 is available in Graphite and Pale Grey globally, and Black and Graphite Charcoal in North America and Europe, currently priced at $119.99/€129.99.

• Logitech unveils two new business webcams
• New Rally AI Camera and AI Camera Pro offer AI smarts and more
• The devices can even be built into your office wall

If you’ve ever wanted to truly dominate a meeting room or video conference space, then Logitech’s new business webcams could be just the ticket.

The company has revealed its new Rally AI Camera and Rally AI Camera Pro, two new flagship business-focused webcams which use on-device AI capabilities to give an all-round better user experience.

This includes better tracking, multi-camera views, and even new mounting options which can blend into your meeting spaces seamlessly.

Rally AI Cameras

Logitech says the new devices merge the worlds of consumer and business-focused designs, bringing a high quality video conferencing experience boosted by its new AI tools and features.

This includes RightSight 2, its new video framing and optics offering, which uses AI to improve the flow of meetings, especially when multiple speakers or participants are involved.

Logitech says it was inspired by film-making techniques to add the ability to adapt in real time and automatically frame an individual speaker or group, or arrange the participants in a grid, with setups such as Zoom Intelligent Director and Microsoft Teams also now able to employ multiple camera views to create more immersive interactions that feel less like a dull business meeting.

Both of the new products feature a custom-designed lens with a 1-inch imaging sensor and a 115º field of view, which means even in low-light conditions, the whole room is covered, and individual close-ups are as sharp as they can be. For those looking for an even more premium experience, the Rally AI Camera Pro offers an additional optical camera with 15x hybrid zoom, meaning presenters and presentations alike can be captured and broadcast to colleagues across the globe as if they were in the room.

Setup is as easy as plugging in a USB-C cable, and management and workspace planning is covered as the Rally AI Cameras detect when, how many, and how often people use specific rooms, with that data uploaded into Logitech Sync, allowing office managers or bosses more insight into room planning and scheduling.

And for the first time, Logitech is offering an in-wall mounting option, meaning the hardware can blend into the room, rather than sticking out and being intrusive, with an automatic shutter which clearly indicates when the camera is off - but there is also the option to still mount on the ceiling, TV display, or on the wall.

"Rally AI Cameras are designed to power the hybrid-first office, where the tech fades into the background to let the digital and physical worlds blend," said Henry Levak, VP of Product, Logitech for Business.

“From small walls to town halls, they provide a cinematic experience for meeting attendees while quietly solving problems that IT managers, Facilities teams, and Workplace Experience professionals face every day.”

Both units will be available in spring and summer 2026 in graphite and off-white themes, with the Logitech Rally AI Camera Pro costing $2,999 and Rally AI Camera $2,499.

• Logitech report finds noise is the biggest productivity killer for in-office workers
• Poor air quality is also slowing them down
• Over 70% of workers admit to being distracted in the office - so what's to be done

Workers are already speaking up against returning to the office, citing reduced in-office productivity and the loss of flexibility, and new research from Logitech backs that up – office distractions are said to be costing UK businesses more than 330 million hours per year.

Nearly three in four (71%) participants agreed office distractions reduce productivity, with a quarter of them losing at least an hour a week due to poor "productivity climate," such as noise, lighting, air quality, or outdated tech.

In fact, noise was found to be the biggest productivity killer overall, with loud talking (43%) and loud typing (21%) being particular bugbears.

Offices aren't exactly the right environment for productivity

More than two-thirds (69%) of the 2,000 hybrid and office-based workers surveyed have argued with colleagues over noise levels, and more than half (51%) have even moved seats or gone home because of office chatter.

Besides the obvious, workers are also being affected by air quality. Stuffy meeting rooms and poor ventilation are key productivity killers here.

Looking ahead, it's clear that companies need to do more to improve the in-office environment if they're to be enacting mass return-to-office mandates. Around one-third each want fresh air ventilation systems (32%), more natural light (32%) and soundproof booths (31%).

"The modern office must reflect the evolving needs of the people it hosts and the work that goes on inside it," Logitech Head of Workplace Experience David Houseman shared.

The report also alludes to the use of biohacking to improve conditions, which involves using data, science, and technology to optimize the workplace.

Logitech's findings come around a year after the company launched Spot, a $499 office air quality monitor.

• Two of Logitech’s Mac apps stopped working due to expired certificates
• This broke custom settings for users’ mice and keyboards
• Patches have been released that should fix the issue

If you’ve suddenly found that your Logitech apps on macOS simply don’t work, you’re not alone. Frustrated users have taken to social media to complain about mice losing their custom settings and apps stuck in endless boot loops, and now Logitech has responded by calling the move an “inexcusable mistake.”

The problem is remarkably simple: it appears that Logitech accidentally allowed the certificates for its Logi Options+ and G Hub apps to expire. Without a valid certificate, they couldn’t run on macOS, preventing anyone from using them and breaking custom settings for people’s devices.

That had wide-ranging effects for users of Logitech’s popular mice, keyboards and other computing accessories. Without access to Options+ and G Hub, you’re unable to customize the settings of your peripheral devices. That means no keyboard macros, no mouse sensitivity adjustments, no anything. That's a frustrating experience, and an entirely avoidable one on Logitech’s part.

Logitech has publicly acknowledged its role in the problem, with company representative ATXsantucci writing on Reddit: “We dropped the ball here. This is an inexcusable mistake. We’re extremely sorry for the inconvenience caused.”

A cautionary tale

How do you rectify the issue? Well, chances are you’ve had an email from Logitech if you’ve registered your email address with the company. This message reads as follows:

“There is a known issue with G HUB and Logi Options+ software that causes both apps to stop working on macOS. To fix this, please visit the link below to download the updated installer and find more information. Your settings will be preserved, and both apps will function properly after the update. We apologize for the inconvenience.”

The link points to a support article on Logitech’s website. There, the company advises users to download patches that can restore the apps’ certificates. Importantly, Logitech points out that the expired certificate also affects its in-app updater, so trying to update an affected app will not work.

Additionally, Logitech warns that uninstalling and reinstalling the affected apps could result in you losing your app settings. Instead of attempting to do that, Logitech says you should just download and run the patches.

Thankfully, your app customizations will not be lost if you run the patch, so you won’t need to recreate all those carefully configured macros and settings after following this route. The patch works for the last four versions of macOS: macOS Tahoe, macOS Sequoia, macOS Sonoma and macOS Ventura. Logitech says a fix for older editions “will be made available at a later time.”

This whole fiasco just goes to show what can go wrong with just a touch of carelessness. Logitech should have been well aware that its app certificates were about to expire, yet this apparent lapse led to a heap of irritation and bad press being directed its way. If nothing else, it’s a cautionary tale for software developers everywhere.

Astro A20 X: Two-minute review

The Astro A20 X is basically a jazzed-up version of the Logitech G522 Lightspeed - but is that such a bad thing? That latter headset is, in my eyes, one of the best wireless gaming headsets of the year, and many of its strongest qualities have carried forward into the Astro A20 X.

You’re still getting fantastic, well-balanced sound that, despite lacking a bit of bass out of the box, can be easily tweaked to perfection in the strong Logitech G Hub companion software. On PC, there’s support for DTS Headphone:X too, which delivers immersive spatial audio that’s perfect for immersive story titles like Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2.

It features the same excellent detachable 48kHz microphone, which picks up your voice clearly when you’re chatting on services like Discord, and the handy red LED indicator that tells you when it’s muted.

The level of comfort offered by the headset is unchanged, too. It’s lightweight but feels suitably durable, with plush earcups and a pleasantly soft headband. The design looks bulky on my head, but it's hard to complain about this too much when it’s so comfortable to wear.

So what is actually new this time around? The big new addition isn’t found on the headset itself, but rather what else you get in the box. The Astro A20 X comes bundled with a small Playsync base and two USB Type-C cables. This is its wireless dongle, and it can be plugged into two different systems at the same time.

Tapping a tiny new button found on the back of the headset itself switches between the two systems almost instantaneously, which is a game-changer if you’re like me and use a PlayStation 5 and PC (or Xbox and PC) with the same display. The feature works fantastically, but I can’t help but feel that the use of the Astro branding is a bit of a misstep from Logitech.

Sure, Astro products do generally support multiple platforms - but the headset’s design looks nothing like existing models like the Astro A50 X or Astro A10.

It doesn’t even have an Astro logo on it - bearing the same Logitech G branding as the Logitech G522 Lightspeed. As a big fan of the Astro brand, there’s something a little sad about seeing it lose some of its identity like this.

Astro A20 X: Price and availability

• Costs $179.99 / £169.99 / AU$349.99
• More expensive than the G522 Lightspeed
• Worth it if you use multiple platforms

At $179.99 / £169.99 / AU$349.99, the Astro A20 X is priced just a touch higher than the Logitech G522 Lightspeed, which costs $159.99 / £139.99 / AU$299.99. It can be found at most of the same retailers, meaning Amazon and Best Buy in the US or Amazon, Currys, and Argos in the UK. In Australia, it can be purchased at Amazon and JB Hi-Fi.

Whether the extra $20 / £30 / AU$50 is worth it compared to the Logitech G522 Lightspeed is largely going to come down to your platform preferences. If you use two or more platforms in the same setup, the Astro A20 X makes a lot of sense and will be the more convenient option.

At this increased price point, you will need to consider alternatives like the Razer BlackShark V3 or SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5 Wireless more seriously, though. That latter model is significantly cheaper at $129.99 / £129.99 / AU$139.95 and offers similarly good audio quality, though you do miss out on the convenient platform switching.

Astro A20 X: Specs

Astro A20 X: Design and features

• Almost identical to the G522
• New platform switching button and base
• Spatial audio support on PC

Logitech hasn’t taken any risks with the design of the Astro A20 X, making only minimal changes compared to the G522 Lightspeed. On the headset itself, the only noticeable change is two extra buttons on the back of the right earcup.

One is a volume mix rocker that increases or decreases the volume of a call compared to your game, while the other is a little red switching button. This works in tandem with the new Playsync Base - a super compact dongle that connects to two systems with USB Type-C.

The front of the base features two LED lights, which illuminate to denote your selected input device. On the back, you’ll find the two USB Type-C ports and two little switches.

These switches are labeled Xbox / USB and PC / USB, respectively, and should be selected depending on what you have plugged in. Luckily, a useful guide is printed on the bottom of the Base to tell you what you need to choose if you want to use a PC, Xbox, PlayStation, or Switch.

The Base has two little rubber feet that help it grip the surface of your desk a little better, though I find that it can still slip off from time to time. The base is very, very light, and even just the weight of the plugged-in USB cables can move it around.

The new platform switching aside, the Astro A20 X otherwise boasts identical features to the Logitech G522 Lightspeed, with highlights like PC spatial audio support and customizable RGB zones on each earcup. The colorways of the Astro A20 X are also slightly different from the G522 Lightspeed. There’s still a Black and White option, but both feature red accent colors rather than blue.

Astro A20 X: Performance

• Comfortable to wear
• High quality audio
• Great microphone

Being nearly identical to the excellent G522 Lightspeed, it’s very hard to fault the performance of the Astro A20 X.

It sounds great out of the box, though as with that headset, I would personally use the companion Logitech G Hub software to crank the low frequencies (20Hz, 50Hz and 125Hz) up by 3dB, 2dB, and 1dB then add 0.5dB at the higher end for slightly better all-round sound as the bass is a little weak by default.

You can access all the same good presets of the G522 Lightspeed with the Astro A20 X, too, including a bass boost mode, gaming mode, dedicated FPS mode, and a media mode, or download hundreds of alternatives created by the community.

The microphone is indistinguishable too. It’s high-fidelity at 48kHz and picks up your voice well, though it does tend to allow in background noise, so I would suggest making sure the noise cancellation features of the Logitech G Hub software are on.

Battery life is identical to the G522 as well, and in my testing, I easily managed a touch over 40 hours with RGB enabled, which is a decent result.

On top of all this, the new platform switching feature works flawlessly with no noticeable delay, swapping you over, and has no issues with pairing.

Should I buy the Astro A20 X?

Buy it if...

Don't buy it if...

Also consider...

Not sold on the Astro A20 X? Here are two other options to consider, including the original Logitech G522 Lightspeed.

How I tested the Astro A20 X

• Tested for multiple months
• Tried with a wide range of games
• Tested with PC, Xbox, and PS5

I tested the Astro A20 X over a period of multiple months, using it with PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and PC. In that time, I played plenty of games with it, including Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and subsequently Black Ops 7, plus the likes of Astro Bot, Sniper Elite: Resistance, Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade, Lego Horizon Adventures, Dead Island 2, and more.

Throughout my time with the headset, I compared its performance to a range of other models that I’ve tested, including the Logitech G522 Lightspeed and SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5, plus more premium alternatives like the Razer BlackShark V3 Pro and Astro A50 X.

• Logitech CEO Hanneke Faber dismissed standalone GenAI hardware as unnecessary
• She advocates embedding AI into existing products, like Logitech webcams and MX Master 4 with Copilot integration
• Competing approaches include Ray-Ban’s Meta Gen 2 Smart Glasses and Plaud’s NotePin AI recorder

For Hanneke Faber, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Logitech, putting Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) into standalone hardware is just a “solution looking for a problem that doesn’t exist.”

Logitech is a Swiss PC peripherals manufacturer, building keyboards, mice, and other components, and its CEO made these regards in a recent Bloomberg interview. She said it in the context of the Humane AI Pin and Rabbit R1 - two hardware gadgets that were released in the last year and that were met with a fair bit of criticism.

These products were supposed to replace the smartphone in some regards, but apparently failed by being slow, limited in features, and locked behind subscriptions.

Embedding AI into existing harware

That being said, they did succeed in sparking a conversation about whether general-purpose AI should be integrated in a standalone device at all. Faber argues that there is nothing these devices can do that smartphones and PCs can’t do - and do better at that.

Instead, businesses should be more focused on including Generative AI into their existing products, she believes. Logitech webcams are already powered by AI in a sense that they can reframe the shot when necessary and filter out background noise in a smart way. MX Master 4, the successor to one of the most famous computer mice in existence, has a dedicated button that brings up either ChatGPT or Microsoft Copilot.

Ray-Ban is on track to complete something along these lines. Its Meta Gen 2 Smart Glasses are a wearable that integrates AI, cameras, a mic, and AR-like features, and the company says it will be useful for hands-free photo and video capture, voice commands, and AI-assisted tasks such as translation, live captions, and similar.

At the same time, there are other creative startups, building entirely new hardware from the ground up, such as the Plaud NotePin Wearable AI Voice Recorder. This wearable pin/clip/neck strap records audio and uses AI to transcribe, label speakers, and more. It’s marketed for meetings, lectures, and similar.

Which approach succeeds in the end - we’ll have to wait and see. One thing is for certain - the future will be filled with AI-powered gadgets.

Via The Register

• Logitech CEO Hanneke Faber says today’s AI gadgets are “solutions looking for a problem that doesn’t exist”
• Reddit users largely agree, criticising AI hardware as overpriced, unnecessary, and slower than using a phone
• Could Jony Ive's collaboration with OpenAI change people's minds?

Startups around the globe are trying to create the next big hardware product that sees the iPhone-ification of a dedicated AI device.

We've seen plenty of failed attempts from the Rabbit R1 to the Humane Pin, and now Logitech CEO Hanneke Faber has chimed in by saying, “What’s out there is a solution looking for a problem that doesn’t exist.”

With 2026 on the horizon, and the looming product reveal of whatever legendary Apple designer, Jony Ive, and OpenAI CEO, Sam Altman, are working on, will this new device change Faber's mind? Or is she just saying what the rest of us are thinking?

AI hardware is yet to spark any interest

In her interview with Bloomberg, Faber, who took over as CEO of Logitech two years ago, said, "The company is a strong proponent of AI," but it aims to find clever uses for the technology in its class-leading peripherals rather than a dedicated device itself.

Just recently, Logitech launched the MX Master 4, an upgrade to the world's most popular computer mouse, and the new version offers a shortcut to ChatGPT or Copilot. That said, it's a thoughtful inclusion of AI, rather than forcefully adding the software just to tout the current buzzword in marketing.

Faber’s point is simple: AI has been brilliant for software and accessories, and Logitech has happily used it to make smarter mice and keyboards. But building entire pieces of hardware around AI alone feels like a stretch.

It’s not that the tech isn’t impressive; it’s that no one has convincingly explained why you need a standalone AI device in your pocket when your phone already does most of the work without the subscription fees or experimental interfaces.

Consumers seem to agree

You don't need to look far to find criticism of AI-dedicated devices online. In fact, I'd love to see sales figures for the most popular offerings like the Rabbit R1 or Humane Pin, considering they essentially tanked upon release.

In a Reddit thread sharing Faber's interview with Bloomberg, users have shared their opinions on AI hardware, and it's fair to say the Logitech CEO is voicing the consensus of the average consumer.

One user said, “Money looking for more money,” which neatly sums up the sentiment. Another joked, “I got 99 problems, and AI is 1000 of them." While the most upvoted comment came from someone who said voice interaction is still a terrible interface, and that no amount of AI magic can fix the fact that talking to gadgets can be slower and clunkier than tapping a screen.

Faber isn’t dismissing AI entirely; she’s saying the timing is off. The value isn’t clear yet, and until someone builds an AI device that does something your phone can’t already do faster, cheaper, and without a learning curve, people will continue to ask why these products exist.

I bought the Ergo K860 at full price a few years ago after writing a few too many uni essays on a cramped laptop keyboard and waking up with pains in my shoulders and back, and have loved its comfortable split layout and large wrist pad ever since.

It’s still my go-to for long writing sessions and is holding up well after years of use and thousands of words, making this Cyber Monday deal perhaps the easiest shopping recommendation I’ll make all year.

The headline feature of the Logitech Ergo K860 is its split layout, which cuts the QWERTY keyboard in half. Its plastic base is also molded into an arch shape, which combines with the split layout to offer your hands and wrists a much more natural resting position than a flat keyboard or laptop. It connects with a USB transmitter or with up to three different devices at once over Bluetooth.

As someone on the taller side, I appreciate that the Ergo K860 lets me sit with my shoulders in a wider stance, which helps to keep cramps and tensions away after long writing sessions. And I’m also a big fan of the mentioned padded wrist rest, which spans the entire length of the keyboard and can even be elevated for additional comfort.

What’s great about the Ergo K860 is that it’s also a very feature-rich keyboard, with a full row of function/media keys and even a full numpad on the right-hand side, making this a good pick for Excel users. The keys are chiclet-based and offer a satisfying resistance and decent key travel – I’ve always found it fast and reliable, but I’m not much of a mechanical keyboard fan, so your mileage may vary.

I’ll also concede that it takes a bit of time to get used to the split layout if you’re coming from a regular keyboard, but to be honest, this is a small price to pay for the comfort and posture benefits of using a split keyboard. I’d frankly recommend this keyboard at twice its retail price, so in my mind, £59.99 is an absolute steal.
