The Verge reports that the Magic Mouse (7-color Magic Mouse 2) that comes with the new iMac with the M1 chip needs to be flipped over and connected with the Lightning cable as before.
We propose that the front of the mouse is easier to use as the charging terminal.
The Verge critically reports why the Magic Mouse 2 didn’t improve, along with the new iMac, the Magic Keyboard with Touch ID.
It’s been five and a half years since the Magic Mouse 2 went on sale, and Apple still thinks the best way to charge it is to flip it over and plug in a Lightning cable, the media said.
The idea of The Verge is that if you put the charging terminal of Magic Mouse 2 on the front, it will be easier to use.
A similar idea was conveyed by iMore along with a concept image shortly after the release of Magic Mouse 2, but it was pointed out that it was difficult to hide the Lightning terminal well.
Expect a change in charging method like Apple Pencil
The Verge pointed out that the charging method of Apple Pencil (1st generation) has also changed, because Apple Pencil (2nd generation) has been improved so that it can be charged wirelessly by magnetically adsorbing to the side of the iPad. He said he hopes that the charging method of Magic Mouse 2 will be improved in the future.
