Apple Magic Mouse (2021) Reviews

Attractive, lightweight design Ambidextrous shell Multi-touch surface

Port location on underside means you can't use the mouse while it's charging Shallow design doesn't fit well in larger hands Glossy exterior is prone to smudging Requires latest version of macOS to access full range of features
