Back in December, I got a new M1 Mac mini, and needed a new Mouse.  So I got the Apple Magic Mouse 2.  After using it for several months, I can give a honest review of this piece of hardware.  You may agree or disagree with me.  Leave your comment below either way.

The Magic Mouse 2 is a predecessor to the first model, which I didn’t have so I cannot compare the two.

Here’s are the pros and cons of the hardware:

Pros:

  • Easy to setup.  No battery to purchase.
  • Feels okay in the hand.  Takes some getting used to if you’re coming from a generic mouse.
  • Looks nice on the desk.
  • Response time is great, especially in games.

Cons:

  • Top of mouse is very touchy.  Harder to click on options on a form.  No option to change that in System Preferences > Mouse.
  • Should charge it at least once a week, so you don’t end up with a DEAD Mouse during the day.
  • Charging port is on the BOTTOM of the Mouse. Not able to be used when charging.

Bottom Line:

The Magic Mouse 2 is a good piece of hardware if you’re looking for a no-battery replacement – despite the cons that I just outlined.
