Reviews for Apple Magic Mouse

I love that it is Bluetooth as well as its seamless compatibility with OSX Lion. The two finger swipe to switch between full screen apps is an awesome feature. Great scroll, no complaints!

This is my 6th Apple Mouse - 2 wired and 4 bluetooth and currently I am on my second Magic Mouse. Occasionally, it does work properly. And when it does, it really is Magic. It is, to me, an absolute gem as I have a sight problem and when this mouse behaves, my ability to maneuver objects, drag and drop and generally control my visual environment is fabulous - I am on par with anyone else. But (I estimate) about 80% of the time, it is so sensitive that it becomes wayward; it scrolls pages left or right and shoots them up and down and frequently zooms in (but not out) without any control or help from me other than that my finger(s) are in close proximity to the top curved plate --- NOT touching --- but close. Then, of course, with a sight impairment, it is more than disconcerting for me to find where the heck I am in an application or surfing the internet or even finding the cursor at all, at times. I have finally accidentally dropped the blasted thing in utter exasperation and now a new mouse is required - NOT, I hasten to add, an Apple Magic Mouse. I love the usual quality of Apple products - of which I have several - but this is utter rubbish. The concept is tremendous; its application is poor - very poor indeed - and my outboard Magic Trackpad is not that hot, either. Come on Apple: make us a sensible mouse at last.

The title pretty much sums up my review of this product. Apple can do amazing things, but sometimes in their pursuit of being "the firstest with the bestest" they release technologies where they haven't worked out the bugs for all of their users. I do not have an extraordinary work environment, yet the mouse does not let me select and click on any of my desired items with any ease like a hardwired mouse does, no matter the battery power, distance from the computer, etc... And I really SHOULDN'T have to do this dance. The thing should work out of the box, as it is. I shouldn't have to call apple support, as I have several times, to get it to work. So I have spent $50? (I don't really remember now) and will have now spend an additional sum this morning to buy a hard wired apple mouse that works. Here's an idea for you Apple. Why don't you actually do testing in Cupertino instead of releasing products and having your customers do the testing for you. It's not really the way to operate a business and it is starting to get to be really, really annoying. And this ain't the first time. Maybe "Think Different" might mean "Do It Right The First Time". Think about it...

I LOVE the new magic mouse!
It's design is so streamlined, so cool that I just want to eat it up.
Lovely product, Apple!

P.S. THe multitouch is fantabulous

This mouse is a must have. I read many bad reviews about it and almost didn't buy it because of all the complaints.

Pay no attention to those negative reviews.

Response and sensitivity are exquisite. Ergonomic design makes this mouse a comfortable fit.

Connectivity is great. Once the mouse it connected it's good to go. Sometimes I have to set my preferences to the mouse, but only when I first turn on my computer. After that, it's perfect.

I read some complaints about jittery movement, bad response, small size fatiguing hands...etc. I have found the exact opposite.

This mouse is well worth the price. Excellent buy, very happy.

Pros: look, sleek, creativity

Cons: It is glossy! sometimes your fingertips stick slightly to the mouse which means you can't scroll or swipe as smooth as well as the trackpad! The trackpad is not made of glass or gloss which makes scrolling and swiping super efficient. 3/5 for the magic mouse, 5/5 for the trackpad.

I brought an apple magic mouse last month. The apple magic mouse is very useful for me, because I change my computer form PC to MAC. I use the PC for so many year. sudden I use the MACBook Pro. this new computer I could not complete to got all the function. Lucky the apple magic mouse let me practice the new method and the old method. So I am very fast to catch how to use my new MACBook Pro.

When I bought my iMac and pulled the magic mouse out I thought it was the coolest thing ever. Until time passed, more and more problems arose.

First off, it doesn't let you right-click, second, the bottom of the mouse is rough and it scrapes both the table and underneath the mouse.

One day it just stopped working all-together. Just stopped. So i had enough, I bought a white Microsoft wireless mouse and it works just as well (maybe even better)

I HAVE A MAGIC MOUSE AND KEYBOARD THAT APPEARS TO NEED A MAGICIAN TO MAKE IT WORK. KEYBOARD WORKS MORE THAN THE MOUSE. MOUSE WORKS VERY LITTLE. I HAD TO GO BACK TO MY WIRED KEYBOARD AND MOUSE ON MY NEW iMAC WITH GREAT 27" SCREEN.

Há menos de um mês venho usando este mouse e estou simplesmente maravilhado com o que ele facilita no uso do computador. Simplesmente fantastico!
Obrigado Apple.

Less than one month I've been using this mice and I'm simply amazed that it facilitates the use of the computer. Simply fantastic!
Thank you Apple.
