  • very good review, and you probably stopped me from buying one. thanks buddy

  • the speed of the cursor can be changed in the settings on the mac itself and how the hell does that logitech track on glass

  • @manny9567 unlike what the apple website says...Laser mice(of any brand) tend to be more exact when it comes to tracking and dpi...but the number of surfaces they can be used on is greatly reduced....his Logitech could be an optical mouse which doesnt always have the DPI, but tend to track on more types of surfaces

  • Nice T-shirt :D

  • I'm getting my first Mac book pro tomorrow, So excited :D

  • Edit: You can pinch in and out! You click the CTRL button and pinch in and out on the mouse. I don't know how this button is called on a mac.

  • Microsoft touch mouse is waaay better

  • Apple does make some small stuff with touchpads. But something what you have to practically facepalm your desk just to get a grip to it, along with touchscreen, will be really uncomfortable, because when you swipe it looks like you have to lift your fingers slightly and could cause strain,

    The Microsoft Arc Mouse is curved and multitouch, and i`m using it now, it is much more responsive then my magic mouse, and better looking, in my opinion

  • What program do use to edit ur vids?

  • this mouse sucks- design is stupid

  • @TheNothing1990 cry about it

  • One Question. Is it good for Gaming?? (Counter Strike, GTA SA, Portal, etc.)

  • @wwe0004 Nah, it's too small really... If you just want to play casual games (Minercraft, Portal, etc.) It works pretty good.

  • what about the battery? charge or change! wtf man

  • @Th33M33 WTF MAN! Cry about it. I would tell you but you're a faggot.

  • @renji928 WTF MAN! i am crying!! dont call me faggot..

  • @Th33M33 Batteries could be charged or changed... if you want to charge it go to the apple store and buy the Apple Magic Mouse Charger

  • haha i love your t-shirt

  • 54 people are white xD

  • Excellent review. I've had my Magic Mouse for about 3 weeks now. 1. It is a beautiful mouse. 2. It is very uncomforable to use. While I do love the multitouch surface it does not allow you to rest your palm on top of it. Also, love the shirt.

  • Thanks for the review. Very helpful. Appreciate the time you put into it and your insight!

  • Terrible review, can I have 4 minutes of my life back? Yep thats right, I facepalmed after 4 minutes after you went on about how this mouse can't track all the way to the 'bottom of your screen'. oh em g.

  • i never finish my com

  • thanks!

  • His mother fucking English coming from his mother fucking ass. Damn

  • plz i need a reply thanks

  • can i change it so that when i scroll my finger down the page goes down instead of going up when i scroll my finger down and how?

  • @WeeklySimpleFilms its in preferences. under mouse.

  • Your anecdotes on how the mouse behaved and what you think its best uses are were very helpful!

  • Magic track pad

  • it look like soap... love it... but have windows

  • i love the magic mouse

  • i prefer the old apple mouse

  • I've been using magic mouse about 2 weeks, and I don't think it is comfortable at all.

  • @pgpayton

    Patience! It took me at least six months to "master" this mouse. Now I think it's the greatest.

  • i would totally agree.

  • is there not supposed to be a right click haha

  • @AllDayMalay yes, there is. you can click the the right hand side of the mouse.

  • @SqwishSqwash works with any computer.

  • This might be a stupid question, but will it work with a HP laptop?

  • staring at the shirt thinking "what in the heck in Anyth?" lol

  • I know this video's 2 years old but I just got this mouse and a great tool to get alongside it to extend it's functionality is BetterTouchTool. A lot of people probably already know about it, but just letting people know who don't!

  • i never finish anth

  • What about resting your hand?

  • Hi I liked your review! im about the get delivered an magic mouse in a few days, I get ur point i work with editing and design. Im gonna work with it because i already use the normal mac mouse. In a few days im gonna tell how it goes. Cheers and thanks!

  • It's shit, buy a trackball!

  • @ChaiBeta Gestures are slightly different on trackpad: 3 finger gestures makes it possible to use pinch zoom, magic mouse focuses on 2 and 1 finger gestures. Other than that, it's just what you prefer, a trackpad or a mouse. I went with the magic mouse, being that it's sort of a trackpad/mouse hybrid.

  • Must admit, it lags a little. Overall it's great, the multi touch features are awesome, and well utilized in Lion. But the height and speed is gonna be an adjustment. (Have only been using it 2 hours so far)

  • the Microsoft arch touch mouse is A LOT better :S

  • Nice video.

  • can i use the logitech mouse on my macbook pro without loosing an usb port?

  • i have been using it ever since i got a mac and i love this mouse!!!

  • I know u get these two a lot, but

    1. Thanks so much for ur view.. it helped a lot!!

    2. I like ur shirt ;-)

  • What Logitech mouse do you have ???

  • In OSX Lion, you would need either a laptop, the magic mouse, or the magic trackpad, soo.

  • 0:01

  • Great review, but you should use it more than a few days before reviewing. These things seriously give you hand cramps if you use them over a few hours a day, and they're very thirsty for batteries. I was replacing batteries every 10 days before I finally gave it away and went back to a regular mouse.

  • how can u dislike this vid there nothng wrong with it unless ur a fatt troll

  • @K1llereel hey dude I ship anywhere in the us and for only $50 I can sell you a brand new one(you still needs to pay for shipping)

  • K1llereel hey dude I ship anywhere in the us and for only $50 I can sell you a brand new one(you still needs to pay for shipping)

  • Hey guys I'm selling a brand new Apple magic mouse for only $50 why is it so cheap? Well it's because my friend had a discount on it cuz he works with apple and he gave it to me pm me an well talk about other details like shipping

  • in my city i dont have an apple store, and the best buys dont use magic mouses because they say its too easy to walk away with them :/

  • Now with the release of OS X Lion, this device looses value, all you need is the Magic Trackpad an a regular or gaming mouse (where wireless is useless).

  • thats a nice shir...

  • Don't get this mouse I broke it in the first week the lining rubber came off way to easily. The bottom protecting the batteries doesn't always stay.

    Just don't bother.

  • you can change the tracking speed lol. I can move my cursor from one end of the screen to the other with one flick of my wrist. this is the greatest mouse i've ever used. it works flawlessely on os lion. and i find that using on finger for tracking and clicking works well.

  • All of the functionality of the trackpad works with the magic mouse now doesn't it?

    Sly

  • do you think that the HP comfort mouse is good

    

  • I'm trying to buy either the magic mouse or the mighty mouse. How is the magic mouse for scrolling in games? I play alot of Rome Total War. Does it do that zoom feature on the scroll thing well?

    I'm split between the two cuz my friend has a mighty mouse he'll sell me but the magic mouse looks awesome

  • @Stalaheid I have an Apple Mouse (as they're now called), and I want a Magic Mouse. AM<MM

  • @Stalaheid no, the magic mouse is the worst possible mouse for gaming, because scrolling in games is erratic and just doesn't feel right. your best bet would be with logitech, I'm actually using the same logitech mouse as the one in the video, the MX Revolution, and it is perfect for anything, especially gaming.

  • is it really that complicated??

  • yesterday you take the mac??

    look back .

  • You said everything man, it ain't to comfortable, specially for those with large hands, and it has less funcionalities compared to higher end mice...but still it looks really good and the scrolling is awesome...it would be great if apple just did the zooming in and out uptades combined with expose and spaces trough 3 fingers

  • You should try and get a job wearing that shirt

  • For someone who knows best you certainly forgot you can easily change the mouse sensitivity in START, CONTROL PANEL, MOUSE, CHOOSE SPEED, HIT APPLY. Now you don't have to take you hand off the table to finish your slide. If you have a MAC just look it up same thing. If you have Linux you would never need my advise by now. PEACE

  • @ChristianSarbu the magic mouse only works with a mac

  • @K1llerEel no it does not, i have both a mac and pc, and it works fin for both, get your facts straight.

  • @ChristianSarbu i have a mac book and the tracking for this mouse just sucks. Even if u change the speed it still fells laggy. yup.

  • @ChristianSarbu this is a apple and mac mouse

  • @ChristianSarbu For someone who knows these things, if you looked at his tour of the Apple Magic Mouse, you would know he has at it full tracking speed, and it STILL is slow for him/

  • @ChristianSarbu even on max tracking speed I find the mouse to be slow

  • what's so special about the mouse

  • good review, I like how you point out the negatives too. 

  • magic mouse sucks chocolate tits

  • Does it works with Windows 7 Home Basic?

  • @TehAztroHD Apple only? Lol.

  • I just got it, and it is very nice looking mouse, but that's true about tracking in Mac osx, I changed the speed and it's better, and I tested it with windows 7 also, and tracking is even better in windows! It's very good I can say, so I'm keeping this mouse, cuz I found its very useful even for editing something, I recommend to get used to it, then decide if you like it or don't like it, my opinion so far, I like it! Its definitely not a gaming mice

  • mongoload

    

  • NOW I get his shirt. I never finish anyth eith

  • I really would like to know why many people hate on Apple products. I mean, I love the products, but idk why others don't. I know it's opinion and I know there are people who hate pc. Macs are climbing into business world, so I would like to know. And yea. The magic mouse needs some improvements

  • @MrHooper411 I agree. I don't understand why people plain out hate Apple. As far as the magic mouse goes, I really can't say that much good about it besides its multitouch and its looks. The way it feels in your hand the first time you use it is just too weird. I use the mighty mouse. lol

  • This dude is good.

  • amazing review

  • Thanks... great and sincere review!

  • does it feel comfortable when you play games with it? I wanna buy it but i dun want to destroy my gaming time...

  • Yes, It has nice features, I'll give it that. I really digg the multi tacking options. But you have to admit, This mouse is far to small. Nothing to rest your hand on. And personally, I want a comfortable browsing experience. But having nothing to rest my hand on so that I have to either hold it up or drag it along the desk will significantly reduce that comfort. Thus I am not purchasing this product. Good try apple, But looks ain't everything.

  • I know what you mean, I can't finish anything my s...... gotta go!

  • 00:31 he said BackBook. Thumbs up if you heard it!

  • holy shit!

    I didn't know my mouse could track on glass! :O

  • @schootingstarr kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

    

  • Can you change the batteries by yourself (which Type?!) and works it with non-apple-PCs (Windows,Linux,...)?

  • i dont have these problems?

  • it took me ages to understand the shirt...

  • @zlliddude i dont get it

  • Great review!

  • @FunnyPlushVideos good one :D

  • This T-Shirt is aweso

  • the tracking on this mouse isn't good at all... i think i might return mine tomorrow. It's not precise. My cheapo microsoft mouse works heaps better...

    i like the multi touch/gestures though... good idea. Shame about the tracking though.

  • Thanks for your review. I'm in the process of ordering a MacBook Pro 15 and will be buying this mouse for sure. I'm making the switch from PC to Mac so I will enjoy playing around with my new system.

  • @paulm2322 dont, i done exactly the same thing, magic mouse sucks

  • Very good review.

  • can you get a normal cheap mouse for a macbook pro ? PLEASE PEPLY

  • @swiftkilla1 Yes.

  • @swiftkilla1 i believe macbook is compatible with any mouse dude. i have a magic mouse and a microsoft mouse and they both work fine.

  • Doesn't track on glass? But my glass table is black and has some sort of lining under the glass which isn't transparent .. Would it work then? :D

  • Damn nice review!

    I need à new mouse but know i don't know if

    It's smart for me to spend €70,- on it :(

    Damn you Apple!!! For making al your product so Beautifull :$

    Thumbs up for you ;)

  • i can use this with a macbook pro right? the new 2011 macbook pro

  • I love my shoulder.

  • If you are having trouble right clicking put both index and middle finger on the mouse then lift up your index finger and right click

  • thinking of buying one tomorrow, not happy about the low sensitivity :(

  • I like your review, a lot! very thorough and insightful :)

  • Comment removed

  • do you get the feeling people put their comments twice all the time on youtube

  • do you get the feeling people put their comments twice all the time on youtube

  • can't you increace tracking speed to not have to pick up your hand moving the mouse accross the screen?

  • does it work on any computer

  • @nakock2 NO!!!!

  • @nakock2 NO!!!!

  • cool shirt!

    and great review!!! thanks!

  • cool hoodie!

    and great review!!! thanks!

  • I use the Microsoft Arc mouse with my iMac (expects god to hit him with lightening) and it is my favorite mouse over the Magic Mouse because of it's programmable buttons. Mine, the older generation, has a programmable scroll wheel button and a button on the side I use for Expose. Also, like SKB said here, it is too damn small for my hands and again, it's tracking is just a tad bit off even after being adjusted in System Preferences.

  • good stuff bro

  • my mouse has a back and a forward butten (only) should i buy a Magic Mouse

  • good t-shirt!

  • One of the best review of this mouse ... I want to buy it to edit graphic but after this presentation I will think about this solution ...

  • lol i love your shir

  • I see your shirt has a bit of candleja

  • hahaha i love ur shirt

  • I got my iMac today. First one ever but man do I HATE this mouse. I have to move it way too much. I plugged in my logitech and won't go back. Hopefully I can ebay it.

  • @euvi85

    "I have to move it way too much"

    Have u tried adjusting the mouse sensitivity in the System Preferences?

  • @Molo9000 Yes I did but still it is not as sensitive as I would like it to be. My logitech is way more sensitive. I have always preferred corded mouses anyways. I don't know why companies seemed to do away with the charging stands for mice. Who wants to switch batteries?

  • i love the magic mouse!!!

  • Just downloaded MagicPrefs! Get this NOW!

  • I'm really upset that I cannot shuffle between pages with the magic mouse like I can with the regular mouse that came with the IMac I purchased!

  • The magic mouse is VERY good it pretty cheap but I have to say I do agree with you that I would use Another mouse for photos or vidios and also it is VERY low in height

  • nice apple stuff (behind you) LOL

  • LOL ur t-shirt "I never finish anyth"

  • I love your tee shirt :)

  • I like ur top

  • I do not own the magic mouse but I tried it out at my local Apple Store and I liked it.

    My hands are much smaller than this young man's and that big Logitech mouse he has would be uncomfortable for me. Ouch. So it's down to a personal choice. I liked his review, but I would like to have seen him show the various techniques when using the MM. Thanks Soldier. (Handsome guy too:) )

  • My family just got an imac for christmas and i can tell you right now that the magic mouse is definitely a great choice. People should note that you can right click with it. Ive only ever used mac mouses that you have to press on the keyboard to get the right click function. Also as everyone has mentioned you can change the settings on the mouse to make it go faster. I changed it within 5 minutes of using the mouse. Its almost necessary

  • can you change settings on it like pointer speed??

  • @austinleafyseadragon

    I think the computer has a mouse pointer speed setting somewhere, so if this mouse doesn't, your computer should

  • @austinleafyseadragon it comes with it or better u can change it in magic prefs which is free

  • the t-shirt is gold :)

  • You cant update the DPI. If the mouse isn't sensitive enough then your screwed. You would need an entirely new laser in the mouse. Fail. A mouse that cant even track a screen in a few inches. The DPI must be below 1000. Thats just pathetic. My mouse is 6000.

  • good deal. nice review. not buying it =[

  • a mouse which is uncomfortable = FAIL

  • 3:20 : Surely you can just change the sensitivity.

  • but it is so f*cking sexy

  • you can change the tracking speed of the mouse in preferences, dumbass. *rolls his eyes*

  • i love that shirt

  • Who ever buys the magic mouse is fucking retarded. It's useless in so many different ways.

  • Also, I find that I rest my hand on the table rather than the mouse, and use my thumb and middle finger to move the mouse, rather than using my arm and having my hand resting on the mouse. Again, it feels more natural.

  • Piece of software called BetterTouchTool which is amazing for the Magic Mouse. I've now set my mouse so that a two fingered swipe in any direction switches spaces, a three fingered swipe up open expose (don't know why, just feels natural), a three fingered click opens spaces, and a four fingered click opens dashboard. I still have the normal two fingered swipe things happening if I hold down ctrl while I'm doing it.

  • epic tshirt xDD

  • awesome shirt

  • do u have anything that isnt from apple ???

  • I like your shi...

  • i would do a video responds but i don't know how :(

  • The mouse is great for any kind of activity EXCEPT gaming

  • @lunarstone101 I was gona get it for Left 4 dead, a FPS, it is worth it..?

  • @Razathus I wouldn't recommend it. Am I correct in saying that for FPS-es, there's a lot of clicking and sliding the mouse across the table? This mouse isn't good at tracking that well. It's not the accuracy. It's the speed, rather. If you do a little bit of googling on it, you're come across many articles describing how poor it is. You have to lift up twice to move from one edge to the other on a screen

  • @lunarstone101 Cheers mate :)

  • @Razathus You're welcome!
