"the MX Master 3S, which is different in just two ways from the 2019 MX Master 3 that it’s replacing: it’s got a higher resolution 8,000 DPI sensor (up from 4,000 DPI last time around) and a mouse click that Logitech claims is 90 percent quieter."

If you're thinking of waiting for 3S, I think the quieter clicks could be a big deal for some people. Still a deal as I don't think I've seen this mouse below $100 before, and the new one probably won't go to this price for a while.

3S is already out, there was a code last week letting you order it for 109$ but I think its expired now. In any case USA logitech has 15% off coupon after signing up which works on Canadian website which will bring down 3S to 109$ and makes more sense than ordering the older model at 100$

Okay they're almost the same price already. Not worth it for me to upgrade as I'm neutral to the design alterations.
It's a good mouse though, being able to use two computers side-by-side with the mouse seamlessly passing between the monitors blew my mind. You can even copy-paste the clipboard if you don't have a keyboard hooked up to the second screen.

I haven't tried the 3S, but I'll say that the regular 3 is REALLY obnoxious. I think it's worse than my older first gen.

There's a Microsoft software called 'Mouse Without Borders' that lets you use the same mouse and keyboard across two computers simultaneously, and lets you move files/clipboard. It's free.
I have two MX Master 2S's. I really like them, except for one very annoying drawback. The rubber-like material changes from a matte finish to very sticky texture after about a year of use.
Until Logitech changes the material, doesn't make sense to spend money on these.
Great price (upvoted for it), but mice are very subjective.
I had purchased the MX master 2 series a while back, but even though it was a solid mouse, it was not to my liking, so I gave it to my daughter, who loves it. I switched to the MX Anywhere 2S, and love it that I now have 3 of them. 1 for my main setup in my basement office (laptop dock, with KVM setup for my servers and other machines), one for a common laptop we have on the main floor, and one for my laptop bag when I travel. A little small if you have large hands, but it is nicely sized between a full size and travel size mouse. nice weight to it, and in the last 3 years, all 3 of them still work flawlessly. The MX master 2 I had to open up however to loosen the thumb button, since it would stick. Known issue, but loosening the screws a bit that hold the microswitch in place, fixes the issue.

There are plenty of threads like this. Just google "MX Master sticky" and you'll get loads of reddit threads.
Any idea if logitech fixed this for 3s?
Logitech is not the only one with these crappy rubber coatings that get super sticky over time. Microsoft did the same on many of their wireless keyboards. I had one, and I got lucky, I managed to get all the sticky rubber to come up, using 99% alcohol, and some WD40. Luckily, underneath the rubber coated areas, it had matte black plastic, so it did not look too bad, and at least after removing it, it was no longer sticky.
