Reviews for Apple Magic Mouse

the best most simplistic mouse ever. It makes using a mac so much easier. I went from having a pc mouse on a mac mini and it just didn't work as well as the magic mouse. it is the best mouse ever for mac....NO TRACKPAD!!!!!!!!!

This isn't a review, so much as a helpful tip/comment. There are plenty of people complaining about hand pain after/during use. I believe (and I may be wrong) that they are holding it wrong. There is a picture in the product overview of a hand holding the mouse the correct way, and that causes no pain (for me). I think that maybe some people have pain because they are holding it differently. So, I suggest looking at the picture first, because it might just save you pain later.

(There are occasional connection problems, but that is expected from any wireless anything)

I have three of these mice - and have not had a problem with any of them. They work with either regular batteries or rechargeable batteries (Apple or any 1.2v NiMH batteries). Regular batteries will last much longer than rechargeable ones - but in general the battery life meets or exceeds expectation. I am not sure why so many people are giving poor reviews. After using this mouse - I find it very difficult and awkward to use other mice. I use the Magic Mouse quite a bit (at least 4 hours per day) - and I can't say that it has caused any hand cramping or discomfort.

This mouse came with my iMac I bought last February. Many people complain about the battery life but if you look under your bluetooth feature it tells you exactly how much percentage of life you have remaining. My battery life has been excellent for all that I use it. The ergonomics are wonderful, no pain in my hand and I enjoy the intuitive features only Apple can create. I have had random disconnecting/reconnecting issues in the past, however they resolved with turning the bluetooth off and then back on, changing the batteries, and restarting the computer. Would buy another in short. It is hard to use another mouse after this one.

After a year of constantly replacing batteries (yes, many battery changes in a year) I have to throw in the towel. The mouse constantly loses connection. It is beyond frustrating to have to jimmy it around and hope that it finds its way again so I can finish whatever task I am working on.
My Office Manager jokes that MM is either having a good day or a bad day. And unfortunately for us, it's a bad day 5 days out of 7.
I thought I might have gotten a lemon but it seems other Apple MM users are experiencing the same problems.
Also, I have started using it for a drawing program and it is impossible to control fine, fine detail being that the speed is jumpy.
So sad for us that we will be going back to unattractive but functional (and most likely) old school mice.
Please Apple, find a way to improve upon this good looking but non functioning mouse.

I do a lot of desk top publishing and decided to upgrade to this mouse. It scrolls nicely, it zooms in and out nicely, but when it comes to clicking, or highlighting or wanting to insert text into an existing sentence it fails miserably. It freezes. I have to click elsewhere and then return to try again. It hesitates. It will not allow me to insert text into an existing file name. I have resurrected my old microsoft Intelimouse, plugged it in and it is working the way a mouse should work. I'm returning this magic mouse to the store!

i just got this mouse few days ago and i really like it, i like the way is made and.
most people might not like it because it doesn't have a left & right buttons.
the way i look at it is that if it has the same functionality but looks different and especially that neat i like it.

This is a really wonderful mouse. Smooth, comfortable, versatile and precise with very good looks to boot. I love the multidirectional touch sensitive top - so easy to use wherever your fingers go. Yes, the tracks need a little cleaning every now and then but that's easy to do with a wipe of a finger. Once loaded with the popular brands of batteries I use the magic mouse never lets me down. The design of the sides means the mouse lifts to make it seem weightless as it glides across the mat. V quiet click too.

I bought this mouse a year ago and its still is working perfect. The one little complaint I have is that the battery cover fell off not even a day after i bought it and it is held on with a piece of tape,but all in all it is a very good product
