    I can use my phone and even my watch (not on my wrist but still can), while they are plugged in.

    But you’re right, the rest of the design is also bad.

      The other problem is that the mouse does not click properly. Apple is still stubbornly refusing to put a second physical button in their mice. For almost 20 years they’ve been selling mice that can emulate right clicking by using a touch surface, but it seems like you still need to hold the mouse funny to avoid accidentally doing the wrong click because your other finger is resting on the other side of the mouse when clicking. At least they got rid of the little ball that likes to scroll horizontally while you’re scrolling vertically and gets clogged easily.

        I’ve used the magic mouse in passing, and to be honest after the first couple fumbled attempts of doing a right click, my brain just transitioned to clicking as if it were a macbook touchpad. And it works great. It’s not a mouse, it’s not a touchpad, it’s in between.
