Our verdict

A clean wireless mouse for Mac owners who like gestures on the top surface. The listing describes pairing and charging only with a Mac, so users of other systems get no stated support.

Overview

A Multi-Touch top surface reads finger swipes and scrolls on the Apple Magic Mouse, while a reworked foot design lets it glide across a desk. The rechargeable mouse pairs with a Mac on its own and charges through a woven USB-C cable.

Gestures on the surface let you swipe between web pages and scroll documents, and the long gap between charges means the cable rarely comes out. Apple only describes pairing with a Mac, and the listing gives no tracking or button details.

Who it's for

Mac users who browse, read long documents and switch pages often will use the gestures most. People who need programmable side buttons or support for other operating systems will find nothing in the listing for them.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Swipe and scroll gestures on the surface
  • Pairs automatically with a Mac
  • Charges and pairs over USB-C
  • Long gap between charges
Cons
  • Only Mac pairing described in the listing
  • Tracking resolution and button count not listed
  • Charging needs a USB-C port

Performance notes

Gesture accuracy comes from the touch layer across the top shell, which turns finger movement into scrolling and page swipes. Battery runtime depends on how many hours a day the mouse moves, and plugging it into a Mac both charges and pairs it. The foot design governs how it glides on the desk surface.
