The cable is for charging only, so when plugged in it's still working wirelessly.

Posted May 27, 2016 Author 6 minutes ago, huilun02 said: Its a wireless mouse even if you hook it up with a cable. If you not playing anything competitive. It'll be fine. Mice of such design are not ideal for twitchy games like CSGO, even if it had a wired mode. Most competitive mice are usually lightweight, uses optical sensor with no acceleration, ambidextrous or can at least be used in claw/fingertip grip. Why the MX Master in particular? I literally just play csgo comp and code =/ I like the MX Master because of it's shape, ambidextrous mice feel weird to me i5 6600K @ 4.4GHz / Cooler Master Nepton 240M (GC Extreme Thermal Compound) / Asus Maximus VIII Gene / 8GB Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4-2400 / 240GB SanDisk SSD Plus & 2TB SeaGate Barracuda HDD / EVGA GTX 980 ACX 2.0 / XFX XTR 750W 80+ Gold / Fractal Design Node 804 Total: £1042.31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted May 27, 2016 Author 3 minutes ago, huilun02 said: Consider the G502, Mionix Naos or Deathadder Yes they are not exactly the same shape as MX Master, but are ideal for palm grip. About as far as real gaming mice get to the MX Master's shape I believe. The Mionix Naos looks amazing! Can you change the DPI and also which one should I get?

Posted May 27, 2016 Author 2 minutes ago, huilun02 said: Both models have 3 step on the fly DPI switching. Not sure if you get to set your own DPI though. 8200 is well worth it if you need the higher DPI. Although I don't think that will beneficial in vast majority of use cases. Just looked into it, you can with the software. So is the only difference the maximum DPI? I only use 800 DPI so getting the 3200 and saving £30 would be brilliant if there were no other differences. i5 6600K @ 4.4GHz / Cooler Master Nepton 240M (GC Extreme Thermal Compound) / Asus Maximus VIII Gene / 8GB Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4-2400 / 240GB SanDisk SSD Plus & 2TB SeaGate Barracuda HDD / EVGA GTX 980 ACX 2.0 / XFX XTR 750W 80+ Gold / Fractal Design Node 804 Total: £1042.31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted May 9, 2019 I just bought one based on the many comments I found online including PC Mag that stated that yes, it will work wired. That was the first thing I tested when I got my mouse, I plugged in the cable before pairing the bluetooth, unifying receiver not plugged in. At that point, the only way it could work was wired. And guess what, IT DID NOT WORK. The primary reason I bought this mouse was to use it plugged in when my magic mouse was experiencing lag from interference, and because it has the thumb scroll wheel. I've gotten too used the left right scrolling with my magic mouse. Too many people online saying yes, it works wired WHEN THEY DON'T EVEN OWN THE MOUSE AND HAVEN'T TRIED IT. I can confirm that it DOES NOT work wired. Those that though it did, must have been unknowingly still connected via bluetooth or unifying receiver. Or maybe those of us for which it doesn't work are doing something wrong (although it's hard to use a wired usb mouse wrong - you just plug it in) in which case please enlighten us as how to use the mx master 2s wired. We would all like to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted May 9, 2019 G903 user here. The charge cable has data lines, and it appears to me in every way that the charge cable allows the mouse to be used wired. I have no ways to test the latency, but I play For Honor and Overwatch competitively and switching from a good wired to good wireless mouse has done nothing but increased my accuracy. I notice absolutely 0 difference between plugged in and not. Have never used an MX Master, but I do know it is not a gaming mouse. I would recommend the G900, which is the same as the G903 other than the lack of wireless charging (which I don't use anyways) Brands I wholeheartedly reccomend (though do have flawed products): Apple, Razer, Corsair, Asus, Gigabyte, bequiet!, Noctua, Fractal, GSkill (RAM only) Wall Of Fame (Informative people/People I like): @Glenwing @DrMacintosh @Schnoz @TempestCatto @LogicalDrm @Dan Castellaneta Useful threads: How To Make Your Own Cloud Storage Spoiler Guide to Display Cables/Adapters Spoiler PSU Tier List (Latest)- Spoiler Main PC: See spoiler tag Laptop: 2020 iPad Pro 12.9" with Magic Keyboard Spoiler PCPartPicker Part List: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/gKh8zN CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 3.8 GHz 12-Core OEM/Tray Processor (Purchased For $419.99) Motherboard: Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Formula ATX AM4 Motherboard (Purchased For $356.99) Memory: G.Skill Trident Z RGB 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-3000 Memory (Purchased For $130.00) Storage: Kingston Predator 240 GB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive (Purchased For $40.00) Storage: Crucial MX300 1.05 TB 2.5" Solid State Drive (Purchased For $100.00) Storage: Western Digital Red 8 TB 3.5" 5400RPM Internal Hard Drive (Purchased For $180.00) Video Card: Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2070 8 GB WINDFORCE Video Card (Purchased For $370.00) Case: Fractal Design Define R6 USB-C ATX Mid Tower Case (Purchased For $100.00) Power Supply: Corsair RMi 1000 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply (Purchased For $120.00) Optical Drive: Asus DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer (Purchased For $75.00) Total: $1891.98 Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available Generated by PCPartPicker 2020-04-02 19:59 EDT-0400 身のなわたしはる果てぞ 悲しわたしはかりけるわたしは Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
