![]() ![]() This is a small problem, but an occasionally troubling one if you’ve got a tangle of cables sprouting from your Mac’s general vicinity (not an ideal scenario, admittedly, but I can’t be the only one) and grab one that isn’t actually plugged in, you may not realise your mistake for a while. One final thing about the charging setup that I find very mildly annoying: there’s no charging light, nor does the device make a noise when plugged in. It’s not a dealbreaking problem, then, although I still agree with the numerous carpers who find this an irritating design element. The fast-charging feature means that if you do find yourself powerless in the middle of a crucial work session, you can plug in for as long as it takes to go to the loo or make a cup of tea and then carry on. It is worth pointing out, however, that the Magic Mouse is a very fast-charging device: while a full charge (two hours of charging) should be good for a month of typical usage, Apple claims that just one minute of charging will deliver up to an hour’s worth. Handily, the Magic Mouse 2 comes with a Lightning cable (left) that you can obviously press into service when charging iPhones and iPads less pleasingly, it has to lie on its side to be charged (right) For those of us who like a bit of bulk to our mice, the Magic Mouse is no more appealing than its predecessor. If that describes you, then the Magic Mouse 2 represents an overly cautious but still solid update, with a disappointing lack of new features but an improved action and the removal of the Magic Mouse 1’s greatest weakness – batteries that constantly needed changing. Your reviewer finds the physical shape of both Magic Mouse 1 and 2 frustrating, but peripheral design is a personal matter: we recognise that plenty of other Apple fans enjoy these mice and use them all the time. We’re going to give this a rating of 3/5, but you should know that it spent much of this article flirting with a 2. You do get a noticeably smoother action on the table, mind you, and a rechargeable battery is an admirable step forward, even if the placement of the charging port is irritating – not disastrous, thanks to the quick-charging feature, but definitely irritating. It’s too flat – and sleekly symmetrical – to fit comfortably in most hands (which further impacts the effectiveness of the more advanced gestures, which are harder to activate when you haven’t got a confident grip of the mouse), you only get two mouse buttons, and it’s all too easy to grab it the wrong way round when you’re not looking.Īside from these issues, the problem with the Magic Mouse 2 – which is also lovely-looking – is that so little has changed in six years perhaps Force Touch would be asking too much, but a virtually identical design and no new gestures is disappointing. It looks quite lovely and offers some neat, fun gestures, but you can’t help feeling that, as with most of Apple’s mice over the years, minimalism has been achieved at the expense of usability. ![]() The Magic Mouse was always an acquired taste. ![]() Physical design is the same and many will find it too flat for comfort.Reimagine your computing experience with the Apple Magic Mouse 2, which offers an incredibly smooth and intuitive way to interact with your Mac.
