    Save money; save the planet

    • Written by from Bingley

    WELL, bought this after running down the batteries on my Magic Mouse AGAIN after a long period of document copy editing and reviewing. After reading all the reviews for the Mobee charger, I did buy the thing with not a little trepidation, but thought I should at least give it a go.

    The kit is stylish (with clear plastic wrapping around each item in the box, a la Apple), and suits all the other Apple trinkets on my desk. The battery pack slotted easily into the Magic Mouse, and there was enough charge to start using it straight away. I've been using it for a few days, now, and the Mobee actually seems to work well. I've had no issues around pairing, and so far it just seems like...well, a normal Magic Mouse.

    So far, very happy with the Mobee, and would recommend others to give it a go.

    Good for about 6 months

    • Written by from Cumming

    This is awesome for about 6 months then the battery starts to not last that long. Just like anything has to be replaced. Note: might have been cheaper to buy normal AA batteries.

    Hopeless...can't keep a connection

    • Written by from HARTLEPOOL

    This product's aim is commendable and the build quality is first class. However, if you use your Mac regularly you'll tear your hair out (if you have any of course) and your blood pressure will go through the roof because it loses it's connection almost every few minutes. Back to store for me I'm afraid until I hear they have addressed the problem.

    Mobee is fantabulous, baby!!

    • Written by from Sunrise

    Three words: No More Batteries
    The Mobee Magic Charger has worked flawlessly for us for the past 6 months - just remember to park your mouse at night so it is ready to go the next day.
    Love the wireless mouse, but hated the battery drain. Saving $$ every month.

    One year - almost to the day - STOPPED CHARGING

    • Written by from Walnut creek

    DO I really spend 39.95 a YEAR in batteries?? And this product only supported for ONE year. SWEET how they designed it to quit working almost EXACTLY at one year - so you have to spend another 29.95 to get a replacement "battery" pack. GIMMIC!!!

    doesn't fit

    • Written by from Toronto

    I brought my magic mouse to the apple store, Tried for 5 minutes and finally got it in but I couldnt get the latch to slide over to lock it in. Not worth the hassle if it keeps falling out

    DON'T DO IT !!!

    • Written by from hove

    Left on charge whilst I went out for a few hours. Went from 13 to 33%. Also drops connection regularly. Get the apple battery pack. That's what I am doing and putting this down to experience of a bad buy. On the other hand their wireless keyboard equivalent works brilliantly. Charges extremely quickly.

    WORTHLESS PIECE OF JUNK

    • Written by from Richmond

    This worked very well for a few months. Then, it would charge, but never say it was charged (admittedly, this might have been a computer issue). Then, it stopped working completely, after the extremely delicate plastic broke. So, I would say that this product is worthless. Worse than worthless, actually, because now I have a Magic Mouse without the bottom plate.

    Great Product

    • Written by from Myerstown

    I bought the magic charger and have had no problems with it whatsoever, I am completely satisfied with it because it performs as advertised. I would recommend since it beats changing batteries.

    Mobee charger

    • Written by from Citrus Heights

    Nice charger, I did notice one thing however, when removing the Alkaline batteries to install new Mobee battery pack, the pack had approx. 53% of charge on them. To my understanding, rechargeables retain "memory" I let the battery pack get down to approx. 3% before recharging them. I've had my charger for awhile now. No issues.
    Works great!

    Did not fit

    • Written by from Columbia

    I was finally ready to take the plunge on this charger and was pretty excited when it arrived. However, the battery pack back would not stay secured to my Magic Mouse. I tried and tried and it would just pop off. So, I packaged it up and sent it back. Not sure if there is something different about my Magic Mouse or what. My MM is a few years old so maybe that is the issue and this product works wiith the newer one. Not sure. Anyway, back to the old rechargeable batteries for me. Too bad.

    A W E S O M E !!!

    • Written by from Keller

    I purchased my Mobee charger 03-05-13 & received it 03-07-13. Today, 04-02-13 was the first time I had to use it and I must say WOW!
    The mouse itself it sleek, lightweight and screams APPLE. Transitioning the battery pack was not at all as difficult as some may think.
    APPLE please consider adding this mouse/charger as a package deal. It is enough to make a person think twice.

    Kudos!

    Battery pack does not fit!

    • Written by from Westcliff on Sea

    Having waited a week for delivery, I set up the new charger unit yesterday and replaced the batteries with the rechargebale pack.

    Getting it into the base of the mouse, I realised the fit was poor. It is!

    The mouse is unusable, as the battery pack is protruding from the base and also does not correctly fit around the on/off switch.

    It's going back to Apple. I am amazed this product has been allowed onto the market, if the machining tolerances can't be controlled.

    Don't buy this

    • Written by from Hastings

    I purchased this at the same time as my sister.. We have both found that it's very slow to charge with the supplied battery and when it does charge it has poor communication with the computer to the point it's unusable... Stick with the apple magic mouse without this. not just mine sisters too on another system. If I could rate it no stars I would

    Don't waste your money...

    Good concept, bad design!

    DO NOT BUY ... good concept; POOR design

    • Written by from Orlando

    Bought it with trepidation after reading the review; should have trusted y'all. Charged for 2 days. Then had a hard time getting it to "fit" into my mouse; the bottom clasp space wouldn't work so I used a screwdriver to pull the clasp back to it fit snug like the Apple cover does. Alas like others something inside isn't connecting like others' experience. Just buy a supply of rechargeable batteries til they figure this thing out or Apple makes a rechargeable Magic Mouse.

    BUY ONE FOR YOUR ENEMIES......

    • Written by from Greenwhich

    This is supposed to be a luxurious £40 dropped on making life easier, but it is just terrible.

    A single charge is so short, I frequently run out of charge before i take a break. I now have a backup mouse plugged in which gets regular use!
    To make things worse, if you forget to sit it back on charge, that mouse is out of action for hours and you're on the backup mouse again.

    Rechargeable batteries are definitely a pain, (hence i bought this to try and make life better) but if i could get this ill fitting slice of design misery out of my magic mouse, i would, but its stuck!
    AVOID!

    Don't buy it

    • Written by from FOSSTON

    I was very disappointed when I received mine. Didn't charge thru usb to computer or usb the wall outlet. So don't waste your time, nice concept though. So glad I was able to return it.
