The company has managed to make an elegant looking mouse (the entire top is just one smooth surface) that is also functional. With the new Magic Mouse, Apple finally has taken a step in the right direction. The device also had side buttons that were so hard to click that they were basically pointless, and the Bluetooth version offered more ways to fail as it offered bad performance. It would attract so much grime that it had to be cleaned almost on a daily basis. The scroll wheel on the thing was basically useless after a few months (and in some cases weeks) of use. Too bad that mouse was one of the worst ever made. Though it technically didn’t have two buttons, it did allow users to click on the right (or left) side of the mouse to simulate a second button. Even worse that was for whatever reason Apple refused to add a second button to its mice, even though every other manufacturer was and most of those were clearly better products (this also makes Apple’s recent decision to add more buttons to its new remote a bit odd).Īpple finally relented, sort of, with its Mighty Mouse.

This is hands-down the best mouse Apple has ever made. Supplies remain tight online where Apple is showing a 5 to 7 day waiting period and Amazon is showing a 2 to 5 week one. Following its release, the $70 device was so popular that practically every store in the Bay Area was sold out of them for much of last week even though most were getting new shipments every morning. After much trial and tribulation, I finally obtained Apple’s new Magic Mouse last week.
