Apple Magic Mouse

The Mighty Mouse is no more, we expect many apple fans will be very pleased to hear this news. The Mighty mouse was often slated by users. From personal experience we found the mighty mouse had a poor right click, and a scroll wheel which was always sticking and clogging up – so the replacement could not have come soon enough.

The replacement for the Mighty Mouse is named the Magic Mouse – bit of a odd choice of name?

At AGL Host one of our members of staff, chris upgraded to the magic mouse last weekend. Thoughts so far is that is is a great mouse.

The Magic Mouse is very comfortable to use for long periods of time, and have a very accurate sensor. The new ability to use finger gestures makes working even easier. The mouse does not have any buttons or a scroll wheel, instead the whole surface of the mouse acts as the left and right click. Also, you can run your finger up and down the mouse to act as a scroll wheel. As with all apple products, the mouse has a very good quality feel and is pleasing to the eye.

A CNET review of the magic mouse claimed that logitech’s alternative was better, however their offering has a very plastic look and is shaped for use only for right handers  - so left handed people cant use the mouse. Whereas with the magic mouse, both left handers and right handers can easily get to grips with this mouse.

Our view on the new Apple Magic Mouse – 10/10.
