Reviews for Apple Magic Mouse

The touchpad is great, and having a wireless mouse on your desktop seems like a good enough idea - until your batteries start dying on you in the middle of doing something at least once a month.

After a few years, mine started losing its connection all the time - even with full battery. I think what happens is the batteries jostle around inside and then it loses power for just a second. Then it loses connection and stops working, and I have to wait a few minutes for the computer to find it again. My mouse loses connection like 10 times a day now. It's all but useless. I'm going to have to go buy a wired mouse, because this is just stupid.

This is the most frustrating piece of Apple equipment I have ever tried using. I was looking forward to the wireless mouse, with less wires running across my desk, but the Magic Mouse is almost impossible to work with when trying to do graphic design, the slightest touch sends it zooming over to the opposite side of the page.

I need to get some work done so I have gone back to using my old cheap pc mouse. This is just too jumpy.

I have had this mouse for around a year now and am very pleased with it from all aspects:

Super accurate in both the mouse pointer and the touch pad on top.
Very convenient to use a touch pad instead of a click wheel.
I've had no pain in the wrist while using it, just hold your hand over it properly as
demonstrated in the product video.
The battery life is awesome, only had to change it once all year.
Being wireless keeps the desk looking clean!

I've been using this mouse for over a month now, and I've never been in so much pain! Even when I'm home from the office over the weekends not using the mouse, my wrist, knuckles, and pinky finger still ache. I've found the only semi-comfortable way to use it (if you're a frequent user like myself) is to place a bit of stiff cloth in the palm of my hand to fill that awkward bit of space between your hand and the mouse. I will be ordering a 3rd party device or at least a mmfixed shortly to avoid any permanent carpal tunnel or tendon damage

Recently purchased this product for my macbook pro to use when Im at work for the ergonomic comfort it offers vs the built in track pad. Looks great and operates seemlessly, the slim profile makes it easy to travel with. If you use a desk top computer I would recomend looking for a larger mouse that your hand can naturally curve around though.

Bought this mouse new from Apple a little over a year ago. Since the moment I purchased it, I thought something was wrong because it was so sensitive, but no that's just how it was designed (evidenced by others on display). My apartment complex also uses these, so I went with it.

GOODS: mouse gestures (swiping across the mouse to go forward/back in browser); it's glossy finish is beautiful and smooth texture feels nice; it's design seems like its good for both right and left handers

BADS: super sensitive at times, other times clicks don't register (like a keyboard where the button doesn't come back up) and that is frustrating; is not very ergonomic (eventual hand pain) and is kind of small

It's a good attempt, but a bad product. I can't believe I spent $70 on this and another ~$40 on the Mobee charger (which worked great, but is now useless). Now a year later and it's stopped working after an accidental drop onto the floor (I was sitting in Starbucks and it fell ~2-3 feet and no longer turned on). So not only is it click-mechanism sensitive, it is also sensitive to one accidental drop. -- I'll see how the Logitech holds up

I saw the suggestion for PC users to get the Magic Mouse instead of the Trackpad. Don't do it. The mouse is incredibly heavy and clunky. The scroll function is nice, but that's it. I just got the Trackpad to replace the Magic Mouse. The Trackpad is incredible. It's worth getting an iMac just for the Trackpad. The touch is so light and responsive and does so many things. It feels very elegant and it's a pleasure. Stay away from the Magic Mouse. I can't believe it's made by the same company.

I have Big Hands, but this Magic mouse does so well. Its glassy feel stops you from even looking at any other mouse. This Mouse is So fluent with its Multi-Touch Glass Shell. GET IT, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!!

I love Apple products, usually. The Magic Mouse is awful. It eats batteries like crazy. Batteries aren't cheap and it's ridiculous how many are used.

Apple needs to come up with a solution and let's make it in America, not China.
