Apple Mighty Mouse Review

May 9, 2008 in Apple by LwEEs

Let’s summarize this review on the first paragraph, I don’t know why I waited so long, I regret not buying one before. If you don’t have one and you need a new mouse give Apple Mighty Mouse a try, you won’t regret it. When I got my first Mac, over two year ago, I was using a wireless Microsoft mouse, it worked fine with my Mac mini until it broke. A key got loose or something, I try to open it to fix it and that was the death of it.

After that mouse I got a Logitech mouse, which was not wireless but only lasted like 9 months, it started double-clicking whenever I was trying to single-click. I looked over Logitech forums and apparently this is a flaw in Logitech’s hardware. I went my local Target store and grab one of those mini Microsoft mouse that can holds the transmitter under the mouse for easy travel, it drove me crazy, I blame it this time on the many wireless stuff I have sitting on my desk.

Finally, I read all the reviews on the Mighty Mouse on Apple.com and decided to give it a try, boy why I waited. I’m not saying that this is the perfect mouse, it still has some room for improvements, but it certainly works better than any of the other mouse I had before it.

The first thing I liked is that is an Apple brand and it works great with my Mac mini, its white which holds that Apple design beauty we are all so use to. The cable itself is kind of short, but if you use your mouse close to your keyboard (Apple brand keyboard) this should not be a problem. The scrolling key works fantastically, in fact is the best scrolling wheel I’ve used and its very accurate.
