    4 Stars There's a Mad Mac Moose Aboot This Hoose! 29/04/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Smooth, curvaceous, multi functional pad with no buttons. Classy and unique looking!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Pricey, not as "smooth" in all operations, not rechargeable, could be smaller & lighter.

    When I first bought my Apple Mac I wasn't that taken with many of the "after purchase," accessories I could buy to make my new acquisition easier on the eye. For those who love to colour coordinate, an Apple Mac computer is essential and being one of very few companies who were first to label everything with their well known Apple icon. It's a wonder that Apple haven't gone out of business with their abilities for buyers to custom build exactly what they want not what the computer bean counters and marketing department "think" you should have based on your budget. Whilst companies such as ... more

    5 Stars The Marvellous Magic Mouse 11/03/2010
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Sleek & stylish design, ease of use.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Short battery life, not compatible with PCs.

    One of my favourite christmas presents was the new Magic Mouse for my iMac. I had become an Apple convert towards the end of last year, when I purchased the latest iMac, and had been very impressed with the Mighty Mouse that I had received with it. Then the Magic Mouse came along, and made me realise its predecessor’s many flaws. Packaging, price, and availability It comes in a very smart clear perspex case which is not much bigger than the mouse itself. As you remove the mouse, a piece of white dividing plastic is revealed, and underneath this is a cute little instructions booklet, nine pages ... more

    5 Stars A successful marriage to my MacBook Pro!!! 02/06/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Looks great! Great simple to use features

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Your bank manager wont approve of the virus you caught of Apple!!!

    I think Apple products must be some sort of virus. Like many people after going on a cruise they say they will not be doing anything else- which has happened to us as we are of on another in August. It is very much the same story with relationship with Apple products. At first I never was interested in Apple until I bought an Iphone and was very happy with it. I then needed a laptop- So of I went to PC world- bought a MacBook pro and handed over £1000! I then proceeded to buy an Apple Magic Mouse and further software for the Mac. It is therefore rather like a virus embedded into the brain once ... more

    4 Stars Sleek and Smooth Running 31/07/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages nice design, comfortable to use

    Disadvantages Disadvantages -

    I have a funny relationship with this Apple Wireless mouse, the reason being that it does take some getting used to. I have used the older Apple mice but not this one and from using a Microsoft mouse this one is definitely a lot more sensitive. A lot of my colleagues just do not like this mouse as they cannot control it but you just need to get used to using it and then it really can become the best mouse you have ever used. Doing design, I have to move around the screen a lot but from going to not being able to use this, I could not be without it now. APPEARANCE This mouse is very sleek it ... more

    5 Stars Magic Mouse, not exactly what I expected, but a great product. 03/11/2009
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Attractive and functional new design; better battery life; well built

    Disadvantages Disadvantages £55 price tag; Mac only; no rechargeable batteries

    What is it? Apple's latest bluetooth mouse, featuring Multi Touch technology. There is one physical button, clicking on the left hand side produces a left click, clicking on the right produces a right click. There is now no longer a scroll wheel (as in the previous Mighty Mouse); instead you can scroll by dragging one finger up/down/left/right on any part of the surface of the mouse. Additionally you can swipe left or right with two fingers to go backwards or forwards in the browser history. What I expected Having used the multi touch trackpads on the Macbook range, and the iPhone I had ... more

    4 Stars Excellent, simple to use mouse 28/12/2009
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Simple, stylish, wireless and multi touch

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Missing some key features

    The Apple Magic Mouse is a very elegant and stylish mouse and is the best mouse I have ever used. It is also simple to use and setup and it feels great in the hand. However it isn't perfect. When I first attempted to connect the Magic Mouse to my iMac, it didn't want to get past the stage of connecting and pairing, but after a reboot it paired perfectly and it hasn't stopped working since. In System Preferences, you can enable right click, turn scroll momentum on or off (I keep it on because it looks nice), change how to screen zoom and enable/disable left/right two finger swipes. Right ... more

    5 Stars It's a kind of Magic...Mouse! Apple Magic Mouse Review with images 31/07/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages sensitive, multi functional, light weight, stylish

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Full use of the mouse features will vary on different mac os systems

    A year ago I bought a 13" macbook pro from pc world. Unfortunately the Macbook didn't come with a mouse (probably due to the fact it has a multi-touch pad built into it) so I decided to splash out and pay for the brand spanking new "Magic Mouse". At the time I paid around £60 for the mouse, but i'd just spend £1000 on a laptop so the price didn't really phase me. I'll be honest the wireless mouse did excite me quite a bit, it came in a plastic container with some mini plinth inside the case that held the mouse in place; it was somewhat over the top, but i liked it! The actual design of the ... more

    5 Stars Magic Mouse - stunning design and extremely useable 19/03/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great design, very good built quality, multi touch gestures

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Price, hand cramps after hours of use

    The Apple Magic Mouse comes complete with 2x AA batteries, stored in a very slick plastic box where it is held in place with clear sticky tabs. Pairing was done in about 10 seconds after which searching for an Apple software update took about another 5 minutes. I run the last of the G5 PPC iMacs, so I can only go as far as Leopard on the operating system. Some of the scrolling options are slightly limited compared with the Intel processor iMacs and Lion, in that the vertical scrolling has no 'weight' behind it, allowing the list or image to freewheel for a moment or two. I flick my finger and ... more

    4 Stars I Have Mice! Apple's Magic Mouse. 27/06/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Light, Nice On The Eye, Comfortable, Simple.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Price, Not As Sensitive As I Like.

    Well iv'e had nearly every type of Mouse you can name, USB, Firewire, Wireless, Laser. While this mouse is by far the nicest looking one iv'e ever had, i can't help but feel apple have let them selfs down after the amazing new wireless keyboard series they have. Don't get me wrong the mouse works fine, just how you would wan't it to, but some of the simple features seem to be lacking for me, for example the laser tracking engine as they call it, the laser in my opinion is not sensistive enough, even though they claim it to be the msot sensistive yet! It takes a few back and forths to get the ... more

    5 Stars The magic mouse is a very worthwhile gadget 07/06/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Multi touch function

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Quite pricey

    After buying the new iMac I received the wireless magic mouse as part of the product. I can tell you that it is such a great gadget, I have had no hassle with it what so ever and after a few days of getting to grips with the new finger motions I found it incredibly easy to work with, making browsing the internet easier and more enjoyable. The mouse in my opinion fits great in the palm of your hand and is just the right size and weight. It glides across almost any surface and with the new laser built into the bottom, the mouse is able to pick up movement on many surfaces from my carpet to a ... more
