Logitech's new MX Anywhere 3 mouse has MagSpeed hyper-fast scrolling
Editor's take: One feature that I’m glad to see return is the auto MagSpeed magnetic scroll wheel.

Why it matters: Microsoft has replaced a forced Windows 10 update that was killing system performance and boot times for several users. It arrived back in May, replacing the old Edge browser with the new Chromium-based version, but the issues it introduced have forced Microsoft to act.
As we reported earlier this year , Microsoft pushed out the Windows 10 KB4559309 update that automatically updated Edge to the well-reviewed Chromium-powered incarnation, which Microsoft confirmed back in December 20
