34 facts in comparison
Logitech MX Master 4 vs Logitech M720 Triathlon vs Keychron M3 Mini
This comparison puts the Logitech MX Master 4, Logitech M720 Triathlon and Keychron M3 Mini side by side — three mice measured against the same 34-spec sheet, with every meaningful gap scored and explained. On our weighted VS Score the Keychron M3 Mini finishes ahead, 86 to 51 — a decisive result.
The single biggest measurable gap is max sensitivity: 8,000 DPI vs 1,000 DPI vs 26,000 DPI. None of our retail partners currently lists the Logitech M720 Triathlon and Keychron M3 Mini, so availability may be limited and price cannot factor into this comparison. A transparency note before you dive in: the spec sheets are Logitech MX Master 4 74%, Logitech M720 Triathlon 56% and Keychron M3 Mini 76% complete. Anything unverified shows as Unknown and is left out of the scores — we never estimate a missing value.

Score breakdown
How the VS Score works — and what it can’t tell you
Every measurable spec is scored relative to this matchup: the best value here earns 100%, the worst 0%, and everything between scales linearly. Each spec then counts according to an editorial weight that reflects real-world impact — a battery-capacity gap moves the score far more than a colour-options list. The category scores above are the weighted results inside each group, and the overall VS Score rolls all of them together; the evidence line under each category names the specs that actually decided it.
Unknown values are never estimated. A spec a product doesn’t report simply drops out of that product’s scoring — it isn’t penalised with a guess — and a spec only one side reports can never produce a “win”. The trade-off is honest but real: a thinner spec sheet means a score built on fewer data points, which is why the completeness figures are disclosed under About this data.
Most importantly: a spec-sheet lead is not the same as a better product. Megapixels, gigahertz and benchmark points describe capacity, not experience — image processing, software optimisation, thermals, haptics and ergonomics decide how a device actually feels, and no table captures reliability or long-term support quality. Treat the scores as a structured summary of what can be measured, read the caveats under each key difference, and use the weight tuner to re-rank the comparison by what matters to you.
