The keyboard is pretty decent, but the Magic Mouse has to be the least ergonomic mouse I’ve ever had the displeasure of using.

Agreed, it’s way too flat especially for my Mongo hands.

I love the Magic Mouse. I don’t know if I have weird hands or what, but even though it doesn’t support my palm it’s never uncomfortable. I tried a regular fancy mouse for about six months and I missed swiping to scroll sideways every single day.

Elevation Labs’ Magic Grips bumpers dramatically increase the usability of the MM

@wootbot Is the Magic Mouse color-matched to the keyboard?

It’s not clear from the description and the photos only show the silver Magic Mouse.

This is almost $100 less than new MSRP, but does still feel a bit steep for refurbished accessories :sweat_smile:

Apple tax is still levied on their “refurbished” products.

Expensive for refurbished. And until the change the way the MM charges I’m not buying

Are these the colored keyboards/mice that come with the 2021 iMacs? Because I can’t find any information about anything close to looking similar to these, and even those colors don’t look very close to these.

No, you’re just holding it wrong.

It’s not meant to be grabbed and held tightly, you’re meant to gracefully slide it with your fingers… and this method of mousing is also a great way to avoid developing Carpal tunnel syndrome.

Gripping the mouse also gets in the way of using it’s best feature - the top surface acts as a trackpad for two fingered scrolling both up and down and side to side, along with some other handy gestures. Those aren’t easily done if you’ve got a death grip on the thing.

As far as charging it goes: charge it overnight every now and then. But should you have forgotten to charge it up in advance, a quick 5 minute charge gets you a good 3-4 hours of use… so go take a quick bathroom or coffee break and come back to enough charge to last until lunch.

So the mouse is also color matched? The description doesn’t say and the photos only show the silver mouse.

@mrosenquest Yes! The mouse is the color matched mouse (the matching color is the bottom (body) of the mouse that is magical).

The images show the orange and yellow versions as the “British English” versions. Are all versions U.S. English, or are there two different versions?

I bought an orange one and it came in US English format. So I assume it’s just an inaccurate picture, they are likely all US format.

Hello. Images have been updated to the correct US version.
