I use a Logitech MX Master 3S mouse. It’s fine. It has a ton of buttons, and I use them all. I prefer the experience of using the Apple Magic Mouse in every way– that touch surface is incredible, and works great on Macs. The problem is that the Magic Mouse’s low profile and click feel rapidly gives me RSI pains. Just a couple of hours with that mouse and my right index finger and hand hurts.
I don’t really think there’s anything wrong with the charging port being on the bottom. The meme is funny, I guess, but tired. Plugging in for like 5 minutes gives you hours of use. It just doesn’t matter.
What does matter is the Magic Mouse is, and has been, quite uncomfortable for a long time. They’re there AirPods without silicone of Mac peripherals– they might work ok for a majority, or even large majority of customers, but there’s a sizable portion of the population who will just never be able to use it.
Bad design is not a charging port on the bottom that’s used for tens of minutes every 4 months. There are far greater sins committed by the Magic Mouse, which is a shame, because it’s otherwise quite brilliant and unparalleled.
