Issue With My Bluetooth Magic Mouse

In spite of its shortcomings, the Magic Mouse is still the best Bluetooth mouse for the Mac.

I've been using Bluetooth mice with my Macs since they became available several years ago, and the Apple Magic Mouse is easily the easiest to use and configure of all the various compatible brands out there. It's a bit more than the competition, but the reliability and ease of use justify the extra cost, IMHO.

My old Mighty Mouse was getting cantankerous after many years & many falls to the floor, so I got the Magic Mouse to replace it. Set up was easy & quick. Ergonomics are good. I especially like the way the scroll function.

Good Bluetooth mouse for use with laptop.

Slick device! Swiping on the mouse itself IS magic!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve gotten used to not using a mouse with my Mac, but my husband and I are planning to buy his dad a laptop for Christmas and he is used to using a mouse, so it was great to have one sent to us. My experience with this wireless gaming mouse was a good one. It was fairly easily to setup: I removed the cover, inserted the included battery, replaced the cover, pushed the button on the bottom to turn on Bluetooth and switched the on/ off switch to on. I went on to my Mac’s Bluetooth settings and immediately found the mouse connected wirh an icon in the shape of a computer mouse, which made it easy to identify. From there, I began to move the mouse and scroll, both of which were smooth and easy. I also like that this mouse has the option to connect via WiFi and/or usb. The instructions were very easy to follow and showed steps with pictures that made it even easier. It also indicated that a wireless charging pad can be purchased to go with this mouse, which I think is a nice touch because if I were to use this long term, I wouldn’t want to have to remember to buy batteries for it. The only thing I didn’t like about this mouse is that the up and down scroll wheel is inverted, but I assume that can be changed in settings. I’ve decided my father-in-law would probably enjoy a mouse similar to this one. My husband said he liked it himself as well, but would prefer a wired mouse.

My original attraction to Loupedeck is that I have a neurological issue that makes manipulating a mouse difficult. That said, WOW! It is far more than just a mouse replacement. This device is far more versatile than I could have imagined. Once you get past the original trepidation of an entirely new sort of workspace, you discover just how versatile the Loupedeck Live is and I've just scratched the surface. The device appears to be optimized for Lightroom Classic and works wonderfully with it. Other programs require some configuration and I'm still learning this. I mention this because it may explain other's complaints regarding compatibility. All in all, I'm very pleased. So much so, in fact, I just ordered the Loupedeck CT for use at work.

I was looking for an inexpensive keyboard mouse combo. This product delivered. My only issue: I’m a fast typist and when going really fast quite a number of keystrokes we’re lost. This was a rare occurrence though. Otherwise a great product.

I have always used an Apple Magic Mouse. I also have used other mice at workstations from time to time. Never have I ever had a mouse fit so perfectly for my hand. Its just a natural feeling. Every other mouse now feels foreign and difficult after getting use to this mouse. I do miss some gestures from the Apple Magic mouse, but you can map the additional 3 buttons on the MX Vertical to do whatever you want. If your looking for a great mouse, you can stop your search here. :)

It may not be for everyone but it serves my purposes great. After using an Apple Magic Mouse for many years, not ergonomic by any means, it became all too clear I need something that was much easier on the hands and wrist. This certainly fits that bill. And having been spoiled by the functionality of the Magic Mouse I was looking for something that I could program. This meets that and more. The options are limitless. You just need to figure out what you do the most of and program those. In all I have 9 different functions programmed into the mouse. A great mouse if you are looking for ergonomics and functionality.
