In our case, the prerequisites for a comfortable mouse while operating with a MacBook are fairly simple: ultra-portability, no cables, no accessories like dongles, some sort of polling rate not lower than that of MacBook’s ProMotion display – 120Hz, stable Bluetooth connection, no dropouts, no lags.

I've been using MX Master 3S for a year, and it's perfect. The cursor is not teleporting, but it's lagging for a short period after you haven't used it for a long time (1-2 days).
And, Master 3S has a lot of features, which are must-haves in Mac

Recently got the Logitech M650. Comes with side buttons, silent click, Bluetooth, a magnetic scroll wheel (which is different from and not as crappy as the MX3S), a battery instead of charging, grippy side texture, and gestures while holding the middle button. Snagged it for $18 in a sale and couldn't be more happy. In fact, I like it more than my MX2S due to its size and weight.

Am using Logitech MX Master 3S and didn't have any of issues shown in this content. I love it because it's big and fits well in my hand, and love it mostly because it has a native button which allow to scroll and switch betwen all the open windows  and Desktops like the Mac trackpad.
The only downside of this mouse is that it get dirty and is difficult to clean properly

I have the MX Master 3. And as a Software Dev, I don't want to live without the Scroll Wheel of the MX Master anymore. I have to Scroll a lot through masses of Code and the Scroll Wheel of the MX Master is the best I ever experienced on a mouse so far.

I just bought the new M3 macbook pro, and I needed something (1) portable, (2) rechargeable, and (3) USB-C compatible. I initially bought a cheap Logitech bluetooth mouse because I'm very happy with my Logitech gaming mouse at home, however, the bluetooth connection was horrible and made the cursor micro stutter. After some research, I came across the Lenovo Go Mouse. It is absolutely fantastic! As it (1) fits in my small backpack zipper, (2) has a rechargeable battery, and (3) comes equipped with a super minimal USB-C 2.4GHz dongle which alleviated the micro stuttering from the last mouse. Overall, I highly recommend the Lenovo Go Mouse for anyone looking for sleek, simple, "forget about it" solution to using a mouse on the go with a macbook :)

I’ve been through a similar journey finding the perfect mouse for engineering and architecture work, especially since I spend a lot of time in AutoCAD. I started with the MX Master 3, but Bluetooth latency was abysmal and the scroll wheel didn’t work well for zooming in CAD. Tried the Razer Basilisk V3, but wanted a USB-C dongle. Then moved to the SteelSeries Aerox 5, but ran into issues with button mapping using SteerMouse. Finally landed on the Logitech G502X Lightspeed, which has been great for my main setup. I also picked up the M3 Mini as a portable option—love that it can connect via Bluetooth or USB-C, plus I keep the USB-A dongle at my desk for easy switching. Super happy with this combo so far!

I agree with the MX Master mouse! Tried both MX master and MX anywhere, and it was so laggy on my macbook air even when using the dongle. I settled with the g304 and it was the best mouse for me. Downside is it does not have a bluetooth connection.
