Moreover, it also introduced the new generation of peripherals for this device like the Magic Keyboardhe Magic pad and the Magic mouse by replacing the Lightning connector on each of them with the USB-C port. Apple has finally understood that it is necessary to forget this port, which is no longer available on iPhone or iPad.
However, it seems like they didn’t have time to change the design of the Magic Mouse, since it still has the loading port down just like the previous generation. Either they didn’t have time, or as Steve Jobs said with the Antenna door of the iPhone 4, “we use it badly”.
Apple and its creations
Apple could have taken the opportunity to change the design and stop making a fool of itself and feature again in a large number of memes already born with the launch of the Magic Mouse 2 when it implemented the charging port at the bottom. It feels like Apple doesn’t pay any attention to its peripherals, especially this device.
A few months ago, the YouTuber Marques Brownlee had the opportunity to interview the boss of the company, Tim Cook. Brownlee asked him about the Magic Mouse without mentioning the design of the charging port on the bottom. Tim Cook responded, as usual when he’s not interested in a question, by acting like a crazy person as you can see below.

As compatible as all Apple Mac devices support fast charge and with a few minutes of charging we can use it for several hours, there is no need to force the user to turn it over to charge while looking at the device screen.
It also forces them to remember to charge the device when they stop working if they don’t want to spin the mouse for a few minutes each day without being able to interact with the computer.
The Magic Mouse, since the first generation, has, like any other mouse, a right button and a left button. One is missing scroll wheel, offering this function by sliding your finger between the two buttons thanks to the Multi-Touch function, so it has a really attractive design and is the preferred option of the company’s most loyal users.
However, this is not practical because it looks like additional buttons to perform additional tasks that help us improve our productivity. Plus, it’s not exactly cheap since it’s available for weak price of 119.99 dollars. For the same price, there are a large number of mice on the market like the Logitech MX Master 3Swhich has two scroll wheels and up to 6 buttons that we can customize, designed specifically to improve productivity and costs less than 100 dollars.
As a former Mac user and having used the Magic Mouse for many years, after switching to PC, I opted for the MX Master from Logitech, a mouse that has great autonomy, is very comfortable thanks to its ergonomic design and thanks to the Logi application. You can add any function you need to the additional buttons.
