Apple put the Magic Mouse’s charging port on the underside once more

Apple’s new USB-C-equipped Magic Mouse in some way nonetheless has the charging port on the underside. Whereas Apple may have used the launch as a chance to maneuver the charging port from the underside of the system — the place the port has remained for almost a decade regardless of different updates to the mouse and being mocked for the choice — the port continues to be there.

This new $99 Magic Mouse signifies that, for the foreseeable future, Apple nonetheless thinks that one of the best ways to cost your Magic Mouse is by flipping it over — making it with the intention to’t use it — and plugging it in. Why?

There have been different options to the ridiculous Magic Mouse charging scenario. For instance, my colleague Wes Davis wrote about an ergonomic grip for the Magic Mouse 2 that may cost the mouse by way of MagSafe. However Apple seemingly didn’t suppose that it wanted to make a significant change to the place the charging port is, so that you’ll as soon as once more have to show it over to get some extra juice.
