The Magic Mouse is a pointing device that was designed, manufactured, and sold by Apple from 2009 to 2015 as part of the Apple Mouse series. The Mouse has been introduced on October 20, 2009.
The Magic Mouse is the first consumer mouse to have multi-touch capabilities and allows the use of gestures such as swiping and scrolling across the top surface of the mouse to interact with desktop computers. It connects via Bluetooth and runs on two AA batteries.
Apple includes two non-rechargeable batteries in the box. Since its release, it has been included along with a wireless keyboard with the 2009 generation of iMacs, and with a wired keyboard with the 2010 Mac Pro workstations. It can also be purchased separately for $69.
This Mouse has been discontinued on October 13, 2015.
Today Magic Mouse is 13 years old!
