    @@jayhepta I still really love it, although I would add that it really pays to put in some time up front to understand exactly how it works. Otherwise, you occasionally end up wondering 'WTF just happened?', as happened to me a few times. That thing is truly more sensitive than I originally gave it credit for, so learning the ins and outs of it really helps to avoid unexpected weirdness. I guess I would also add that the Magic Mouse is probably not very good for Heavy-Handed Mousers or Those of Little Subtlety (two distinct species of human). Good luck! 🙂

    im glad you put this vid out there. granted I'm 2 years late lol. but not having used a Magic Mouse before and learning all the gestures from scratch made me thing its a very well thought out mouse. Ive heard about all the other guys here on KZread but I have to say its not the most ergonomic but it freakin works and since it don't spend 8-10hrs a day using it I don't get the fatigue everyone suffers from. I know mine is a small opinion but I like the damn thing. like a lot.

    Hi Nishita! Thanks for commenting on the video. I would definitely recommend the Magic Trackpad for the iPad. The trackpad is more suited for iOS in my opinion, because it ressembles touch input more so than the mouse. To zoom in, just pinch your fingers like you would on the touchscreen of the iPad.

    Excellent video. This video changed my perspective on Magic Mouse completely! Everything make sense once you realise Magic Mouse is actually a "movable Magic Trackpad" rather than a conventional mouse. Magic Mouse is great for scrolling gesture, so you should position your hand like using a trackpad when scrolling. Also you have to hold Magic Mouse very differently. And the best way to hold Magic Mouse I found is .. DO NOT HOLD IT while your hand is at rest! Why it is so? Magic Mouse has flat weird shape that is very uncomfortable to hold for sustained period of time. But it also has an exceptionally flat shape that can sit/hide below your hand. You have to practise a bit to get used to the new habit: after moving the mouse cursor, release the hold of the mouse, reset your hand on the table as if you are holding nothing. Rest your thumb and pinky on the desk and relax your hand completely. When you need to move the mouse, grab the mouse again. This habit is unintuitive at first because your brain tell you it's slower to grab the mouse each time when you move to mouse. But after a few trial you will find this posture very comfortable.

    This tip is also super useful for other really flat mice, like my Logitech Pebble that I use while on the go! If your mouse is on the smaller side lengthwise too (again, like my Logitech Pebble), move it forward in your grip until your index and middle fingers are bent to an angle you like while they're in their resting position. At first you may be instinctively inclined to make sure some part of the mouse contacts your palm, but doing so often forces your index and middle fingers to curl in a carpal tunnel-inducing manner. Basically, start with a grip as if you were holding a traditional ergonomically sized mouse, then without changing that grip, position the mouse within it until you can use all of the functions properly!

    Hi Jagan! So sorry for my late response. To my knowledge there unfortunately is no way to get the mouse to respond to a tap instead of a click. This seems to be a deliberate choice from Apple though, seeing as the mouse is able to distinguish between a click and a tap. Like you said, it's already touch sensitive. Maybe there's a third party program that makes this possible? Thanks for watching!

    I hold every mouse with my fingertips as you described here and am used to keeping my wrist stationary and just using my fingers to move the mouse. I got the magic mouse for work and found it very inaccurate and very difficult to click on small things. After some frustration, i found the reason - the sensor is at the front and not in the middle. The front is also the heavier part of the mouse. This makes it so that when you hold the mouse in the middle and make fine movements, it rotates and the sensor doesn't follow the movement properly. This makes it necessary to either hold the mouse at the front, which feels unnatural and uncomfortable, or take extra care not to rotate it when moving it. Because of this single dumb design decision, this mouse is completely unusable for me

    The mx3 is just comfortable to me and I like the tactile feedback. Gestures are nice, but I'm not letting all that just to get a gesture to make macs weird fullscreen behavior led annoying 😂. I'd rather just use alt when I fullscreen to get the Windows-style behavior you described. I wish that was a default behavior... having an app take over the entire display and not let me pop other things over it is what I want maybe 3% of the time.

    You can use a command in the terminal to set the tracking speed even higher. The fastest setting in the Preferences is '3'. For my 43" 4k screen I set the mouse to '15'. If you decide to do this and find the command, don't go back to Preferences and touch the Tracking Speed slider. It'll reset the speed to 3 again. lol

    Honestly the biggest game changer for this thing is better touch tools. It unlocks a TON of potential. Tap to click instead of having to click is nice, tapping or clicking on the right side of the mouse to right click, having 2 finger swipe down to minimize a window and 2 fingers swipe up to maximize but not full screen a window, two finger tap to right click, etc. You can even specify which areas of the mouse register touches, how much touch is required to register as an actionable touch and tons of other advanced options. You really have to think of this thing as a small touchpad you move around to control the mouse and use the surface of the mouse for everything else you'd normally use a touchpad for.

    Instead of suspending your fingers over it, another option is to have your middle finger on the upper right edge as well, and leave your pointer resting on the surface. Then you just have to move your middle finger over (to "join the party") for the occasional gestures. (Well, I guess my pointer does tend to hover, so I'm with you there.)

    I am actually switching from Mac to PC. I was working on a google slide deck and if you google this it'll come up: the slides change even with the most delicate touch on a magic mouse. After some frustrating 30 ish minutes I started to just use my track pad but noticed the back of my hand was strained from having to suspend my fingers in the air to avoid touching the magic mouse. Any tips?

    Hi Omar! Hmm, that sounds super annoying. When you say the slides change with the most delicate touch, do you mean a touch, or a full on click of the mouse? If it's the first one, then there must be something off with the settings of Google Slide Deck. That program is only supposed to respond to actual clicks, not touching the mouse. Or maybe the program switches slides because it registers your touch as a scrolling gesture. If so, again something should be changed in Google Slide Deck's settings.
