Apple Magic Mouse - White Multi-Touch Surface ​​​​​​​

While I still wish this mouse had a few more features (multi-touch to allow for more easy zooming) this is FAR better with the iPad than any standard mouse I have used. The track pad on the magic keyboard is more powerful but I don't really want to use a track pad when I am docked.No actual buttons or wheels. But, fully supporting right and left click, scrolling, and horizontal scrolling... Really if it just supported multi-touch it would be almost perfect. I have had this mouse for about a week sort of 2 months and after the first out of the box charge I am currently down to 22% battery. So, much better than advertised but still.. A year or longer on a charge would be really nice.

This is my third Magic Mouse and I still find them to be the best mice for Macs. Sure when I got my first Magic Mouse 15 years ago that took AA batteries it took some getting used to (which there are third-party attachments that you can buy to help with the ergonomics) but once I quickly did I genuinely don’t know how people can live without one.The only reason why I have three is because I’d upgraded from the AA battery version to the lightning charger version just because charging it made more sense than changing batteries, and then later to the USB-C version because I wanted one for both my Mini and MBA.As a graphic designer I couldn’t imagine using any other mouse on the market with its convenient gestures for navigating canvases or just for browsing the internet. 10/10 would recommend.

This is the best addition to any MacBook Pro ever! The pad is extremely awkward to use if you’re a first time MacBook Pro owner. This is our first MacBook Pro and it has a learning curve that you have to get use to using if you want to use the love that it is wireless via Bluetooth and eliminates the need for using one of the few USB ports on the MacBook Pro. It makes using your MacBook more convenient and easy to navigate than using the pad that is built into the laptop. Our MacBook Pro is the space gray version and we bought the same color mouse. I’ve used the wired mouse on the older Apple Mini Macs in the past and it was just a little bit different than what I was use to using which was a Windows OS mouse. If you’re a first time MacBook Pro user, you should invest in this mouse. The charge is great and last for several days or hours depending on how long you use your MacBook. The pad is a real learning curve and this will help eliminate a lot of frustration when you are a new MacBook Pro owner.As far as gaming goes, I can’t exactly say how well it works as I am not a gamer. But the response time , in my opinion, is fast and I think there are other options for gamers that are really into gaming that own a MacBook Pro and I’m sure they are aware of those options.I have owned three apple desktop counting the latest MacBook Pro and those both had a wired mouse and keyboard that was separate from the Mini Mac. Sitting down with my new laptop was quite a different experience than the other Apple desktop’s that we have had in the past and it is not like a Windows laptop in the way the pad works , but this was worth the price of not relying on the built in touchpad which I had a lot of learning to do if I was going to rely on the MacBook Pro built in pad. Not a big fan of the white keyboard and mouse as we have had two different sets of the white items and they start to look kind of dirty after a few months of use. The one thing I absolutely miss about the older Mac Minis that ran on the Intel processor is that the newer M3 chipsets don’t have the ability to run Parallel’s which most people know what that means. I don’t really miss the ability to use Windows on my MacBook Pro now anyway because it was always the source of all of the problems we had with the older Mac minis in terms of malware and viruses. I do however miss the CD or DVD drive as well because I have a lot of Japanese MQA CDs and they can be unfolded to enjoy the full potential with a external drive and the software that you can buy for the MacBook Pro. It gets the most use as a MQA decoder than any other type of computer usage. We have the newest iPad Pro versions and they are almost as good as the MacBook Pro. I have heard that the newer versions that are coming out are going to be basically the “MacBook Pro Killer” as they are supposedly going to have a lot more RAM and powerful processors and the ability to run programs that only a desktop or MacBook Pro can handle now. But I think the price point is probably going to be outrageous for most people.My only regret is that I didn’t get the MacBook Pro Bluetooth keyboard in the space gray when they were more a available, because they are extremely hard to find now and expensive in comparison to the standard white model. The keyboard has to have the finger print reader on it as I would like to sit in in a cradle instead of having it opened up on my workstation. So that makes it even more difficult to find and expensive. I have seen used ones sell for twice the price of the new white version, but it is the only thing that is really left to buy for this set up.

For someone who’s well engraved in the Apple Ecosystem like me I was going in with this expecting it to be great and it is!But you need to know this isn’t the most ergonomic thing you can get and it’s far from that. This is a neat tool you can enjoy when using art apps or general light gaming but I would really recommend you to buy an actual mouse if you’re doing more serious gaming because you don’t have a traditional scroll wheel and most games will freak out if you accidentally slide your finger on the mouse.

The Magic Mouse is everything I hoped it would be—lightweight, responsive, and beautifully designed. Scrolling feels effortless with the touch surface, and the gestures make navigating between pages, apps, and desktops super quick. It pairs instantly with my MacBook, and I haven’t had a single connectivity issue.I also appreciate how comfortable it feels to use for long periods. The rechargeable battery is a huge plus—just a quick charge and it lasts for weeks. On top of that, it looks fantastic on my desk.If you’re an Apple user, this mouse is the perfect companion. It’s sleek, functional, and makes work feel seamless. Highly recommend!

I gotta agree with the so-so reviews - this is a luxury, overpriced mouse that feels weird to hold and has no ergonomics to speak of. The "magic" scrolling works pretty well, but let's be honest - it's kinda gimmicky and doesn't really have any advantage over an actual physical scroll wheel (unless you somehow manage to break the scroll wheels on mice all the time).On the upside, it does look great and screams "Apple", if you care about that stuff. I know some people hate on the battery port location but the battery life is pretty good and charging isn't that big of an issue. I think the biggest upside is that it's the only mouse I know that works well on my Ipad Air. I've tried multiple made-for-Windows mice and web scrolling feels chunky and delayed. Not sure if it's a problem w/ my hardware, or (more likely) if Apple made it that way by design to force you to buy their products, but I guess I'm stuck with a mouse I don't really love as my only option!
