Review on Apple Magic Mouse 2 Wireless, Space Gray by Wiktor Paul ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The product is working, but I will not repeat the purchase for sure.

There were several complaints regarding the original mouse, but none of them were addressed. Just now was it charged. The device can be fully charged in an hour using something, and this can be done at night, so the bottom-mounted port is not an issue. It's fine to use in most situations, although a trackpad is preferable to a mouse whenever possible.

Pros
  • This mouse's only selling points are its looks and the fact that it operates without batteries.
Cons
  • This mouse should only be used for basic computer tasks like web browsing. The most frustrating aspect is undoubtedly the fact that your finger will perpetually activate the scroll if you choose to keep it on the mouse. Because of this, juggling many applications at once is next to impossible. Sometimes the action of going back a page is triggered as well. Second, the right click is not functional and instead a questionable simulation is used. Finally, the zoom gesture is severely deficient. Was it so difficult to implement this zoom, given that multi-touch mice now exist? Therefore, something can be viewed larger by double-tapping, but shrunk again cannot be accomplished.
