It's about time. For years, Apple has embraced aesthetic simplicity over practicality with its peripherals. Single-button mice! Yes, we know Apple hasn't made single-button mice for a long time, but why in the world did Steve Jobs ever think that was a...

Apple was the first company to popularise the mouse in the mid-1980s, but its more recent stabs at the device have been something of a mixed bag. The Magic Mouse is the replacement for the bar-of-soap-style Mighty Mouse that attracted so much ire and...
Beautifully designed; multi-touch surface shows potential...
Too thin to hold comfortably; not all multi-touch gestures work well; pricey...
It looks lovely and the multi-touch surface is clever, but the Magic Mouse isn't as versatile as a button-bedecked alternative, and we found it too thin to use for more than a few minutes at a time. Your mileage may vary, so try before you buy...

If I asked you to describe a mouse you would either tell me it's a small rodent or you would tell me it's an input device for a computer that has two click buttons and a scroll wheel. The creation of the scroll wheel re-invented the way we interacted...
Touch scrolling up and down is a breeze...
Side swipe is hard to master...
This is a nice idea and one when we heard the news very tempted by. While touch certainly is the future of the mouse, the Magic Mouse isn't that future just yet...

Mac users have always had the short end of the stick when it comes to mice - can the new Magic Mouse break the mould? The Magic Mouse’s main selling point is its touch-sensitive surface that acts like a MacBook’s trackpad, allowing you to scroll the c...
Gesture support, Good weighting, Comfortable scrolling...
Very overpriced, Low profile won't suit everyone, Missing gestures...
The Magic Mouse could well grow into something wonderful, with full gesture support and a choice of form factors to suit all tastes. This first release is promising, but unspectacular, and we hope the price falls.

For a company that pioneered the widespread use of the mouse as a computer controller, Apple has a surprisingly bad record at making good ones, particularly since the return of Steve Jobs and, with him, industrial design as the prime driver of product...
Apple wants £55 for the Mac-only Magic, which isn't cheap for what is, essentially, a standard laser-optical wireless mouse. Look beyond the Apple marketing hype and that's all it is. Yes, it has that multi-touch panel, but it doesn't rea...

When we first heard Apple were trying their hand at producing another mouse, we harked back to the last good mouse Apple produced – and concluded they’ve never done a good one. It astounds us that a company so focused on design and with money to burn...
