Apple Magic Mouse

Editorial Review:

It began with iPhone. Then came iPod touch. Then MacBook Pro. Intuitive, smart, dynamic. Multi-Touch technology introduced a remarkably better way to interact with your portable devices - all using gestures. Now we've reached another milestone by bringing gestures to the desktop with a mouse that's unlike anything ever before. It's called Magic Mouse. It's the world's first Multi-Touch mouse. And while it comes standard with every new iMac, you can also add it to any Bluetooth-enabled Mac for a Multi-Touch makeover.
With Magic Mouse, Apple has brought Multi-Touch technology to the desktop mouse, giving you a new and more intuitive way to interact with your computer. Just as with iPhone, iPod touch, and MacBook Pro, the Bluetooth Magic Mouse adds gestures and swipes to the usual clicks to bring more functionality and help you get more done with less effort.

Beautiful Design with Seamless Multi-Touch Surface
One look at Magic Mouse and you'll know it's something special that only Apple could dream up. With a low-profile design and seamless top shell, you'll marvel at this beautiful mouse and its smooth, buttonless appearance.
It's not all looks, though. Once you touch it, you'll appreciate how good it feels in your hand. And the magic really begins when you start using it. The Multi-Touch surface covers the entire top of the mouse, and the mouse itself is the button. Scroll in any direction with one finger, swipe through web pages and photos with two, and click and double-click anywhere. Inside Magic Mouse is a chip that tells it exactly what you want to do. Which means Magic Mouse won't confuse a scroll with a swipe. It even knows when you're just resting your hand on it.
Laser-Tracking Engine
Magic Mouse uses powerful laser tracking that's far more sensitive and responsive on more surfaces than traditional optical tracking. That means it tracks with precision on nearly every surface - whether it's a table at your favorite cafe or the desk in your home office - without the need for a mousepad.
Wireless Convenience with Easy Bluetooth Setup
Magic Mouse connects wirelessly to your Mac via Bluetooth, so there's no wire or separate adapter to worry about. Pair Magic Mouse with your Bluetooth-enabled Mac and enjoy a reliable and secure connection up to 33 feet away. When you combine Magic Mouse with the Apple Wireless Keyboard, you create a workspace free of annoying cables.
And because Magic Mouse is wireless, it can venture beyond the confines of your desk. A quick flick of the on/off switch helps conserve battery power while Magic Mouse is tucked in your bag. Even when it's on, Magic Mouse manages power efficiently, by detecting periods of inactivity automatically.
Make One Great Gesture After Another
Multi-Touch technology on the iPhone and iPod touch introduced a breakthrough way to interact with your content. Magic Mouse, with its Multi-Touch surface, does the same thing for your Mac. When you use gestures, it's as if you're touching what's on your screen. For instance, swiping through web pages in Safari gives you the feeling of flicking through pages in a magazine. And scrolling with Magic Mouse isn't your everyday scrolling. It supports momentum scrolling (similar to iPhone and iPod touch), where the scrolling speed is dictated by how fast or slowly you perform the gesture.

Stunning, beautiful design by Apple. View larger.
Give It Your Personal Touch
Maybe you want scrolling but don't want swiping. Or two-button clicking instead of one. Whatever the case, Magic Mouse works the way you want it to work. All you do is go to the Magic Mouse preference pane in System Preferences to enable or disable features.
The ambidextrous design of Magic Mouse means it fits comfortably in your right hand if you're a righty or in your left hand if you're a lefty. And left-handers can easily swap left and right button functionality using System Preferences.
System Requirements
Bluetooth-enabled Mac computer
Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later with Wireless Mouse Software Update 1.0
Existing keyboard and mouse for setup

Multi-Touch technology lets you use gestures and swipes directly on the mouse surface.

Great mouse, but it doesn't fee good in the hand:

I cannot begin to describe how awesome this mouse is. it has effortless functionality and Apple really did a great job of fixing the scroll-ball issue with the previous mouse, this is a great mouse. Only problem is that it doesn't fit well in the hand, the profile is too low. Don't get me wrong, I love this mouse and wouldn't give it up for anything other than a more ergonomic design. Just commenting to let folks know. It works AWESOME, just feels weird.

Apple Magic Mouse:

I purchased this newer mouse since the scroll function on my older mouse stopped working. The right click and double click does not always function. I'm used to double tapping on my actual touchpad on my laptop. I wish that would translate over to a mouse. It has proved functional, but I cannot always double click to open a page. It makes me right click to choose, "open," in order to open an attachment. Scrolling works well and you can adjust the speed.

Not good with 27" iMac:

My magic mouse came with my new 27" iMac. Love the Mac but this mouse is a huge disappointment. I've used Macs for 20 years and this is the first Apple product I've found to be inferior. I'm a small person and have small hands. This flat design is very uncomfortable, makes my hand feel crampy. I can't imagine how people with big hands can stand it! Tracking is so slow (on the fastest setting) that I have to lift and move it to get around my big screen, just like in the old days before optical mice. The... more info

Best mouse I have ever used:

Its rare for something as basic as a mouse to be so much better that it impacts my use and provides significant new functionality, but this mouse does. It is great and the touch surface is brilliant. Congrats Apple on investing a better Mouse!
