Apple Magic Mouse 2

Introduction to the Magic Mouse 2

The Magic Mouse 2 was announced alongside the iMac in October 2015, featuring a completely redesigned Lightning rechargeable battery that eliminated the need to replace AA batteries, with an improved foot design for smooth tracking.

The Magic Mouse 2 was appreciated for the convenience of rechargeable battery over the AA-battery predecessor, though the bottom-mounted Lightning port for charging remained a point of humour.

The Magic Mouse 2 was designed to eliminate disposable batteries with a built-in rechargeable battery while maintaining the smooth multi-touch surface and gestures of the original Magic Mouse.
