Earlier this year, we spotted signs of a Logitech MX Master 4 in the works, replacing the 3S, and we subsequently got a closer look at it. Now a new report says it will include haptic feedback …
The Logitech MX Master 3 and 3S have long been a popular choice for power users, thanks to a combination of ergonomic design, pixel-level precision, customization options, gesture controls, and multi-device pairing. All that has made the device a go-to for many creatives and coders.
A regulatory filing back in May indicated that a new model was on the way, and Logitech accidentally leaked a photo of it the following month. This included a new side button whose purpose is as yet unknown.
German site Winfuture says that the new model will offer haptic feedback.
There are two major innovations in the MX Master 4. The most important is a so-called “Haptic Sense” control panel, which is positioned in the area of the thumb.
A vibration motor integrated there is intended to provide feedback on the specific actions, shortcuts or notifications to the user by means of haptic feedback. The manufacturer states that they want to provide feedback on actions such as a computer change, cursor adjustments or the like. The intensity of the vibrations from the Haptic Sense field can be individualized in the Logi-owned app called Options+.
There’s also a new “actions ring”, located in the thumb rest area, which allows users to set customizable actions in the companion app.
The site says that the MX Master 4 will launch on September 30 for around $150.
