Like the grey white version thata what i bought. Tired of owning black mouse for 30 years lol. Grey looks more elegant
Agree on the color however...
Just lurking in this thread to see help me decide if I want to get one of these in the future or the MX Anywhere mouse, still using an m325c.. I had been waiting for a replacement for the K810 keyboard (lost most of my stuff in a recent house fire, had purchased K780 in the meantime but no backlight), so I bought the new MX Keys Mini Keyboard in the Pale Grey color which has a similar color scheme to the grey mouse. I absolutely love the color scheme and the keyboard.... but depending on your lighting situation, the automatic backlight has been coming on when I have enough ambient daytime light in the room, and when it comes on, it makes the characters on the keyboard harder to see since the lighting blends into the pale grey keys. Not too much an issue for those of us that know how to type.... At night it is fantastic though. I just turn off the backlighting during the day because of this. Just thought I would bring that up for folks who may want to get that keyboard in the future... It was too new for me to find it on display anywhere....

Good deal. Just be aware that Logitech kinda ditchs the user of old MX (including regular MX 3). The new MX key mini uses the "bolt" receiver that is not compatible with the "unify" receiver that old MX uses (including those that is currently on sale). The new MX business line uses the new "bolt" USB receiver.
Just bought the new MX mini, bolt receiver[logitech.com] is not available yet but is on my radar....but the mini is also bluetooth so using it that way and it is performing great so far... Eventually I will want to use the flow feature, so will need the bolt and a mouse I suppose... it is supposed to have increased security too...

I also just recently purchased the MX Keys Mini, but am returning it. I don't like the layout, I want a TKL version. I have the full size and it is a great keyboard, but I prefer TKL for ergonomics. I am thinking of purchasing an MX Master 3 but am not sure if it would be good for my tiny hand. I had the MX 2 before and returned it because it felt too large, but I read that the MX 3 was slightly thinner and more ergonomic. I currently use a Microsoft Sculpt ergo mouse which is one of the best as far as ergonomics, but it studders all the time. I also tried the MX Vertical and that thing was huge, even worst than the Anker Vertical mouse. I have tried many ergo pointing devices including the Penguin mouse, Evoluent, Rollermouse, CST Laser Trackball, trackpads, and all the OG ergo pointing devices from back in the day, but the Sculpt ergo feels the best.
These are regularly this price at Staples. Not a deal. The IBM deal for the 2s at $50 was awesome. I got that.
Just to clarify - they're never on sale, but can be bought for a dollar more ($80.xx) at staples, including the cost of filler, for the 3-5 days each month that Staples has a 20/100 coupon.

Using this currently. Only annoyance is the output selector located on the bottom (which requires flipping over the mouse if you want to switch to different devices). Otherwise, a fantastic mouse.
Yup, I don't understand why they put the switch on the bottom. I have the m730 Triathlon and it's got the switch on the top, can jump between devices without taking your hand off or flipping the mouse. Much better on top.
Logitech mice are notorious with the left click issue. I have that issue now with my ergo MX after about 2 years of daily use. Thinking of getting the MX3 but wondering if the MX4 is close to being released.
No MX4 yet, but there is a new MX3 that uses the updated Bolt dongle. The MX Master 3 for Business, like the new MX Keys Mini that also uses the new dongle. Same mouse, more secure dongle.

Yeah, I've got the MX Keys Mini too, and cake from a K810 (classic great keyboard). The k810 had black keys and the letters really were very readable, way more readable than the MX Keys Mini during the day. At night, both have good backlights.
I got in on this deal but had to return it. Bought a 2S instead. Coming from the original MX Master the 3 is very uncomfortable to use. Looking online it is no an uncommon complaint. The scroll wheel is smoother but not in a good way. Maybe I am just used to the old form factor but the 2s just feels so much more comfortable.
