MX Master 4 - so good to be back

Just purchased an MX Master 4. And well. I am chuffed.

Short mouse backstory

2008 - the precursor - bought myself the MX Master forefather, the MX5500, complete with matching keyboard. Awesome mouse, with one serious downside. It needed to be docked in order to charge.

2015 - the original - my MX Master arrives. Big step into the future. Trusty companion. Thumb scroll is awesome. And farewell charging dock! Travelling is now much easier

2021 - the mistake - Should have bought an MX Master 3. Instead... went for the Rapoo MT750S. In all fairness, it was cheap, worked well and was good value for money. But it never did feel "right". Was too light, the buttons were too mechanical and clicky, and the thumb wheel was way too stiff.

2026 - the redemption - new MX Master 4 arrived today. Where have you been these past few years!

Haptic feedback? It will take some tuning to get used to.

The Actions Ring? Wow wow!

General feel? Like a homecoming. Or as goldilocks would say, "just right"
