This mouse uses the most popular bluetooth wireless technology and it is simple and fashionable without too much decoration, which is in line with the consistent style of Apple. This product uses two No.5 batteries, which can support the mouse for four months because of the design of a power-saving mode. It also supports the touch function and still use the design of one button.
Actually Apple mouse generally support right click, but a lot of products need to work together with the Ctrl key on the keyboard. Although this method is a traditional symbol of apple mouse, there do have opposite voice towards such design because of the advocate convenient nowadays. But Apple Magic mouse let us find that the concept of right-click is more directly carry out there.
The Apple Magic mouse uses the white appearance which looks clean and simple. It adopts the ultra-thin design and the overall thickness is only 1.7 CM.
The hands do not feel very comfortable when holding the mouse because the force supports the palm is small. So our hands is usually dangling when we use it. The result is that it’s a little pain if we use it for a long time.
May be some people will say, if we put the whole hand on the mouse, it will be more comfortable. But thus still has problems. Firstly, if our hands relax a little bit, it will the button. Because the whole shell of the Magic mouse is touch screen, just as the same as the previous products of Apple.

Another reason is that the top shell of the Magic mouse uses the all point-contact design. The large area of contact between the hands and the mouse will cause some operation mistakes. Even if we can keep the number of mistakes at zero, but as a selling point for touch products, if you don’t use the touch function, then what is the meaning?
The Apple Magic mouse is actually a product that pays a lot of attention to its function and appearance. As to its appearance, this product uses the ultra-thin design providing a flat touch space which is very suitable for the mouse itself. But from the view hand feeling, the product is too smooth, not providing any support for the hand. The user must always raise his hand when using it. And if the time lasts long, the hand will hurt a little.
Evaluating conclusion:
The Apple Magic mouse has a very strong function, the all point-contact design shows us the great creativity behind the big research and development group. But it’s still not successful to give up the hand feeling and the convenience.
Different people will offer different answers to the question that which one is more important between comfort and convenience. But whatever the answer is, the product has indeed sought for a new direction of the mouse development. We just don’t know whether the direction is right.
