I’m guessing they’re waiting for the release of the rumored bigger iMac to update the peripherals then, but it’s still crazy to me that they haven’t updated the bottom facing port on the Magic Mouse still, I would’ve expected that to get updated ASAP, it’s such a design embarrassment lmao
I understand the thinking behind the bottom-facing port. It forces the user to disconnect the cable to use the device which preserves the aesthetic of a desk setup.
I wonder if the next Mouse from apple will include a wireless charging mat similar to Logitech's Powerplay system (which I have and love; haven't had to even think about my mouse's battery for the last 3 years).
And yet the keyboard doesn’t require that preservation. It’s just the mouse, and it’s just because they wanted a continuous curve.
It’s form over function and it punishes users for forgetting to charge.
