they're not going to because they want you to buy the ipad. that's why apple also never lets an ipad become a tablet/laptop device, because they want you to buy the macbook.

​@@Eric-qi9usin short: Apple always want more money from everyone

I don't work for that long a time in one sitting, but also prefer the trackpad as I use an Apple laptop a lot, and having the same gestures, but with even more space, is a big plus for me.

I personally have a really big hands for a men in this age, but magic mouse is absolute fine for me in terms of its ergonomics. There is a the thing with the shape of the apple mouse, everything depends on your grip, you really need to grip it in an apple way so it becomes comfortable

I have Macs, Windows, and Linux machines and right now my go to for all of them is the Logitech M575 trackball. Really thinking about trying this trackpad but what I am using now is so effortless with plug-and-play compatibility and ergonomics I think it might be a mistake for me. I still want one though but that cost is hard to swallow.

trackballs are brutally underrated and i don't know why.

I recently changed from an ergonomic mouse to Apple trackpad. Surprisingly, flat is good. Flat is best for the wrist.

I got a new Imac two weeks ago and the first thing I noticed was the mouse strained my wrist and didn't move smoothly across my desk. my trackpad is gen 1. my mouse is magic mouse 2, and I think I still prefer the trackpad. Just have to make sure to have spare batteries always charged. My wrist was instantly uncomfortable trying to use the magic mouse.

@@zacharydriver1351I just got a Magic Trackpad to use eon my new iMac and it doesn’t move as smoothly as the Magic Mouse,. It’s kinda jittery at times. 😢

what's the mistake? using either compared to the Mx? I thought you ultimately concluded they were close? doesn't feel like much of a mistake right? what am I missing here? I need to pick up a mac only mouse for on the go but now I'm confused after watching haha

I'm testing the MX5 today and I'm not convinced that it's better than the Magic Mouse or trackpad. I started with the trackpad 1, continued with the 2 and the 3 is in my basket already. Why? When comparing with the MX3, the pros are multi device connection and ergonomics**, while I still "need" to buy a trackpad or mouse for every computer I'm using. But I mis the gestures already. MX5 ergonomics are better, in a way. But, maybe, because I'm still finding my way, the MX5 isn't the device (for me) that "everyone" is so. It feels cramped, but this could be first hour issues. Any hint, opinions or remarks?

subscribed! helping you with your 10k goal. Dont give up. you got it keep up the good work. cheers

I have a Macbook Pro, which I use on a riser, so don't get much use out of the trackpad, but I do like to use it. I was a long time windows user. I loved my HP laptops but the mouse pad was nothing like Apple's trackpad. I bought the mouse due to relying on a mouse with my HP laptops. I do like using a mouse for things like drag and drop, but for general use, I wouldn't mid using a trackpad. I also find the mouse uncomfortable if I'm not sat at my desk. I am tempted by a trackpad. When they're better priced. I also have a magic keyboard (model A1644). Do you know which model of trackpad will match best?

I'm using and needing both of them. The Mouse ist my main pointing device but the trackpad is more useful and easier for zooming in and for all the multi finger gestures to control the app windows. I can't renounce one of them. And the Magic Mouse isn't more worse, than any other Mouse by using it. Not in my opinion.

Correction for your claim at 0:52 Apple still sells the USB SuperDrive that came out all the way back in 2008 both on it's website and in physical store locations.

Would love Apple Pencil compatibility and a fingerprint reader on the next gen of trackpads.

Good choice!

I would like to add that for me, the ergonomic issue was not the magic mouses' design, as I first thought. The culprit was the sitting ergonomics of the desk and chair along with the height and angles (just look up good sitting ergonomics while working on a desk computer). I would get wrist and hand cramping/pain from extended use. Try using a 90-100 degree angle of the forearm with minimal shoulder abduction/lateral movement of the shoulder joint, all discomfort is eliminated. Try it. I've noticed that people with longer legs than torso (me) tend to have this issue.

its too short bro, short for claw grip

they also work on pcs as well just got the trackpad 2 today and it works great on both

i just got my first imac and i was thinking what is magic trackpad and if it is worth it, apperently it is, i don't own one yet since i just have my magic keyboard and mice that came with imac, but when they break next upg ill get blackout version of magic keyboard and. trackpad, reason for trackpad is 3 in my case, first its gesture controled like mice, move hold or swipe along with press are the basic mice options with limited space to do them on which work on daily use, but in my gaming case it sucks, that is my second case, sensibiity, right now it feels like 3200 very slugish since i came from 10.000 on daily use feels bad to manuver it but gestures are worth it, all gestures work perfectly and save time, the only headache is reaching point a to b with mice so more surface of trackpad plus more functions should be better i think if it works as macbook that is, as for my last reason is wraist strain, during daily use its not a big issue since i can use it all day, where it does hurt is gaming with precision or apm since the mice is so sluggish when moving it makes extra strain on my wraist, i do have a gaming mice i used on my previous pc, but i use it rarely just like gaming is rarely also. anyway thats my opinion so far never owned one but i intend to buy it next. i own alot of apple products since it allways puts a smile on my face having reliable and good quarity products, never once felt annoyed, except 2 times, apple watch disgusting poor battery life, and airpods pro unreliable battery and connectivity.

Can both the trackpad and the mouse work simultaneously with iPad Pro?

I prefer the Magic Trackpad with my M1 Macbook Pro. However, I can let the deal pass on a 50% discount on a Magic Mouse Late 2021(Black). Still havent unboxed the Magic Mouse though.

i love trackpad on my macbook, and i recently bought magic trackpad, and i rly dont like it its slower and somehow laggy does anyone have this problem?

Spot on, Nate. Better yet still, any serious editor or streamer will use Trackpad AND a mouse, but not Apple Mouse - Mx Master3 or 3S is the clear choice for most.

You need to make a How-to video about Magic Trackpad 2 working with Windows. I've searched for such a video everywhere but I couldn't find anything concrete.

There's a driver for the trackpad on GitHub, I've used it fine myself on windows 10 both wired and Bluetooth with the 2nd gen Trackpad

If they would make a trackpad with built in touch-id it would be an instant buy for me. The fact that you have to use an Apple keyboard to get touch-id is nuts to me.

did you say the mouse had a creative charging solution? ha! that's the most amazing take ever.

charging port location of mouse is not rly an issue, mouse lasts long enough and you just charge it over night and thats that

One update I wish Apple would do is the charging of the Magic Mouse. Who designed this to plug the charger in the bottom? For a company that is probably the best computer company and tech company, that was a pretty dumb place to put it there.

Magic mouse: you are not going to have any wrist issues as long as you use a pad. I've been using it for years, no problems whatsoever. The placement of the charger is done with purpose, to avoid cables, and the design purpose is largely misunderstood: Apple doesn't want to suggest people that they should use cables. It only take a few minutes to charge and it lasts for weeks, so it's not a problem at all. It's not like charging your phone, something that needs to be done regularly.

My problem with the Magic Mouse is finding a pad that WORKS. I may have to switch to the track pad.

i love the magic trackpad since day one! the mouse is also great but is not great for big hands.

Try to work in illistrator or photoshop with that trackpad and you see how the mouse is way better option

For everything else the trackpad is smoother and more comfortable. Although it’s not cheap, the best setup I’ve seen is trackpad left of keyboard and Magic Mouse on the right. Then you get the gestures and the scrolling of the trackpad AND you get the precise movement of the mouse when you need it

2:26 Imagine people couldnt tell glass and plastic apart... oh wait a minute

Well, have both, and your review is spot on. That said, my opinion, for what I do, both are a great option. Depends on what I am doing as to which one I use. My 2cents.

It charges on the bottom and is notoriously hilarious design because obviously you can’t use it while it charges. However you only have to plug it in for 2 minutes to get a full day’s battery life, so its less of an issue but still hilarious

You can do so by installing the imbushuo/mac-precision-touchpad driver, which is a Precision Touchpad driver for the Magic Trackpad 2. It enables the gestures you're talking about in Windows. 5-finger gestures aren't really supported I believe though, since these aren't implemented in Windows at all (not the fault of the driver, but needs to be supported from Windows' side).

The trackpad started hurting my hand after just 30 minutes lol I went back to a mouse right away. Just not for me

1:05 Answer: I would bring back the 27 inch iMac Pro with the m2 max, 32GB of RAM, a 6k display, and with the max of the m2 ultra, 256GB of RAM, and 8TB SSD. If not I would bring back the 27' iMac that starts with the m2 chip at 16GB of RAM and 256GB SSD and the 5k display with the max configurability at the m2 pro, 96GB of RAM, and finally, a 8TB SSD. Would be cool tbh.

Magic Mouse is an ergonomic disaster!!! I had one at work for a year and I hated every day of using it!!! I even had calloused skin on a side of my ring finger because of it! Finally I ended up buying myself the very basic Genius wireless mouse and I couldn't be happier

the MX is trash, is heavy as hell! magic mouse is lightwave

Not forget by me, I have both of them..

Neither. I own both and both are in their boxes again. The MX Master 3S crushes them both in every way. Plenty of utilities to really expand the capabilities of the mouse.

It’s totally worth it though. You wouldn’t think so, but it becomes as basic and essential as needing a mouse to use a computer. Any Apple computer becomes a touch screen and it’s so much faster to navigate and work.
