- Logitech MX Master 4 adds advanced Windows 11 haptics
- The addition provides additional feedback for users on a number of tasks.
- More features coming soon
If you’ve ever felt like you’re not really connected to the documents, spreadsheets, and slideshows you produce at work, then there’s good news: help is on the way.
Logitech has revealed that its flagship MX Master 4 mouse will now integrate with Microsoft’s Advanced Haptics for Windows 11, giving you all the extra information you could want.
The news means that Windows 11 users can feel a subtle vibration during previously mundane everyday actions, such as adjusting and resizing windows or aligning objects in PowerPoint.
Haptics on your mouse
Logitech says no additional software downloads or updates are required to enable the new capabilities, just a quick firmware update on its Logi Options+ platform, using the latest updated version of Windows 11.
Existing users can access the feature now, but new units will also ship in fall 2026 that will support the feature out of the box, and new support for additional haptic feedback is coming soon for both Windows 11 and third-party apps.
“With advanced haptics in Windows 11, everyday interactions are more responsive, clear, and natural,” says Dave Dame, senior director of Human-Centered Design at Microsoft. “MX Master 4 delivers that experience from day one, extending interactions beyond the screen and setting a new standard for the way hardware and software come together.”
Released in September 2025, the MX Master 4 is undoubtedly Logitech’s best mouse to date; I have been using one for several months.
Haptics were a big selling point at launch and promised to give users greater interaction with their accessory across a variety of tasks. Located below where the user’s thumb rests, the mouse’s haptic pad can be customized to provide interaction for a variety of tasks, from scrolling to selection and navigation.
“Logitech is at the forefront of haptic innovation, and by working closely with Microsoft, we ensure our users are the first to experience the next generation of productivity,” said Art O’Gnimh, general manager of mouse and keyboard solutions at Logitech.
“We integrated advanced haptic hardware into the MX Master 4 at the forefront, anticipating a shift toward more immersive operating systems. With the launch of Windows 11, that engineering foresight pays off. We’ve delivered a meaningful, frictionless experience that remains the only one of its kind in the industry.”
