The Mac version is black, the normal version is grey.
As the Mac version does not come with a Unifying adapter, I would recommend the normal one, then you can use it on the PC and connect it to the Mac via Bluetooth.
Hello
Based on your question, I assume that you have a Windows computer. If your computer supports Bluetooth, no further hardware (i.e. no receiver) is necessary. If you don't have Bluetooth, you need to check the compatibility of the receiver. Or you can buy a Bluetooth module (e.g. via USB).
Greetings
There is no USB receiver, the mouse is Bluetooth and can be connected to 3 different devices. If necessary, download the Logitech application to pair the mouse.
Hello,
Yes, it works well under Mojave. I advise you to take the Mac model.
Mojave does not allow you to have the recent version of the Logi Options+ application, but you can customize the mouse buttons for each application.
Best regards,
Sam
So this is a mouse, not a keyboard, but on the mac it works for a keyboard:
Display the keyboard layout
On your Mac, select "Apple" > "System Preferences" and click on "Keyboard" in the sidebar. ...
Go to "Text input" on the right and click on "Edit".
Select the language on the left and press the key combination "ctr-dial-shift" or the command key.
We were able to purchase a batch of the black version at a lower price and have therefore reduced the price. In the meantime, both prices are the same again.
Also works with Windows, I need it regularly with Bootcamp. By the way, the "normal" (not for Mac) version of the MX Master 3 also works on Mac. The only difference is the colour and the fact that the others come with an optional USB-A receiver (for when Bluetooth is not integrated).
You can connect up to 6 devices with the unifying adapter and you can establish up to three connections with the mouse and switch with the button on the bottom. E.g. Windows PC, MaC, Tablet. Also works with the MX keyboard, Windows PC, MacBook and iPhone.
The MC version is unfortunately not Unigying compatible, so a connection with an adapter is not possible. It only works via Bluetooth. If no Bluetooth is available, you can buy a USB Bluetooth adapter that is as big as the Unifying adapter from Logitech and then it comes out the same.
Dongle = dongle, there are no specific keyboard or mouse dongles.
However, the keyboard in particular causes problems via native bluetooth on the Mac (M1) (but my keyboard may also be faulty).
The Mac version doesn't come with the Unifying adaptor, there are some shortcuts that are preconfigured for Macs, those are the only differences, the mouse works with Windows via Bluetooth, a unifying adaptor could be bought separately if needed.

According to the data sheet, this variant should be specially optimised for the Apple ecosystem. At https://www.logitech.com/de-de/products/mice/mx-master-3s-mac-bluetooth-mouse.910-006571.html (Reinvented for Mac) you will find a short description where Mac-optimised colours are also mentioned. Unfortunately, I have not tested the Mac variant to be able to say whether the colour tone might be a little different, as for example with the predecessor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NFBqyd8IIk. However, if I compare the technical characteristics (DPI, battery capacity, dimensions, weight, buttons, etc.), everything should be identical. The main difference I noticed is that the Mac version should come with a USB-C charging cable and not with USB-A to USB-C like the other one. Also, the Mac version is designed for Bluetooth connections with MacOS devices and comes without the USB receiver (Logitech MX Master 3S (Wireless, Wired) should come with the Bolt receiver).
I accidentally ordered the "for Mac" version and now realise that there is no USB receiver included. I saw that you can order the receiver separately and found the following products:

Are any of these products suitable for the "MX Master 3 for Mac"?
As far as I know, many gestures on the trackpad can be mapped to the mouse by placing the function on the mouse buttons. However, not all gestures can be mapped. On the other hand, there are functions via the buttons that are not available as gestures. Really ingenious are the functions that change depending on the software. There are buttons that have different functions in Photoshop than in Indesign or Illustrator. There are plugins and you can bend them to suit your needs.
For me, the MX Master is much better than the gestures. But that's not a general statement that applies to everyone.
I bought the MX Master 3S for my MacBook Pro with M2 Max chip. At first I had no problems with the mouse, but after a day of active use, the mouse started to block or affect my integrated laptop keyboard. Instead of typing letters, the keyboard behaved as if I was constantly holding down the option key (G became @ without using shortcuts or 8 became { etc.). As soon as I switched off the mouse, the keyboard of the MacBook worked again as usual. When I checked the settings, I saw that LogiOptions+ requires access rights to the keyboard input, otherwise no individual button programming is possible.
Is this problem already known or is there a solution?
Logitech's site says that a free 1-month Adobe Creative Cloud subscription is included with the purchase of this mouse, does this also apply if I buy the mouse here via Digitec?
And what is the difference between the MX Master 3 for creativity, programmers or Mac? Why do they have so many versions?
For example, I already have a Unify adapter for my Logitech keyboard. Could I now just buy the MX Master 3 for Windows and connect it to the Unify adapter and then use it directly via Bluetooth when I want to use it on the Mac?
