Logitech MX Master 3S Bluetooth Issue / Lagging / Delay

I am referring to this closed thread: Logitech MX Master 3 / keys lagging. - Apple Community


Basically I am trying to understand the exact problem. After having googled and researched a lot, reddit as well, I found that when I disconnect my Sony WH-1000XM4 the mouse works supersmooth. But when it's connected it doesn't.


And at this point I don't think it is interferences as mentioned in some results I found. I feel like the bluetooth capacity is overloaded with this:


  • 1 Keychron Keyboard Bluetooth
  • 1 Logitech MX Master 3S
  • 1 Sony WH-1000XM4


It kinda would make sense to me that the Headphones would take the most bluetooth "bandwidth" but I am asking here if that makes sense. What Limit is there on bluetooth bandwidth and does it make sense that even though those are just 3 devices they can clog each other - or that the Headphones clog the mouses data?

I have a Mac Pro 2019 with Mac OS Ventura 13.2.1 (22D68). I have had issues with adding a 3rd bluetooth connected device. I have the keyboard and magic pad connected via bluetooth. When I add any other bluetooth device to my Mac the mouse cursor lags bad. Typing also seems to lag a little, but that isn't as noticeable as the mouse cursor jumpy movements. I have connected the keyboard with a lighting cable and gone into the bluetooth settings to forget the keyboard connection (wired mode now). Now, when I connect my headset or airpod pros to my Mac Pro, I don't get anymore lag. $6,000 Mac Pro bluetooth limit is 2 bluetooth devices. I haven't attempted a 3rd party bluetooth adapter yet, but I guess I will if I ever need another BT device.

I have this same issue. I tried the following but it hasn't resolved the issue.


  • Forgetting all my BT devices
    • I then each one up from scratch
  • Downloaded and installed LogiOptions+, but couldn't get the wireless dongle to be recognized
  • I cannot do a full wipe or reset of my Mac as my company owns it. There is nothing wrong with the Mac itself.


I recently bought a BT keyboard (see details below), but the issue seems to have started right around the time I upgraded to Big Sur.

As soon as I turn off my Logitech MX Master 3, audio is immediately restored. I don't use AirPods and Bose at the same time. MacBook stays open, (lid isn't closed) and I have it plugged into a Lenovo ThinkVision USB-C monitor.
