Apple’s Magic Mouse 2 (USB-C) is a must have for those who do not like trackpads, and you can get one for $67.99 shipped today, originally $79. Use the included USB-C cable to charge its built-in battery, and you’re set for untethered freedom. Product page.
- Magic Mouse is wireless and rechargeable, with an optimised foot design that lets it glide smoothly across your desk.
- The Multi-Touch surface allows you to perform simple gestures such as swiping between web pages and scrolling through documents.
- The rechargeable battery will power your Magic Mouse for about a month or more between charges.
The multi-touch surface is where the magic happens: swipe between apps, scroll through documents, or zoom with the same fluidity as your iPhone’s screen. It’s like a trackpad and mouse had a baby, perfectly tuned for macOS gestures.
Battery life is a standout. A single charge lasts about a month, so you’re rarely reaching for that USB-C cable, which—let’s be clear—is only for charging, not wired use. Two minutes plugged in gives you nine hours of wireless operation, perfect for those oops-I-forgot-to-charge moments. The USB-C port, a 2024 upgrade from Lightning, means you can use the same cable as your iPhone or MacBook.
I’ve been using the Apple Magic Mouse for a few months now, and I can confidently say it’s one of the best mice I’ve ever had! First off, the design is incredibly sleek and minimalistic, which fits perfectly with my Mac setup. The wireless Bluetooth connection is seamless, and I’ve had zero issues with lag or disconnection. The multi-touch surface is a game-changer. I love how easy it is to navigate through pages and apps with gestures like swiping and scrolling. It makes using the mouse so much more intuitive and enjoyable, especially when multitasking between different apps and windows,” said one reviewer.
