Apple's Magic Mouse, a staple of the tech world, has just received a price drop that's music to the ears of budget-conscious shoppers. The sleek white model is now available for $68, marking a 14% discount from its usual retail price of $79.
For those who may be wondering how this iconic mouse ended up in their price range, the deal only applies to the white model. First released back in 2009, the Magic Mouse has undergone modest refreshes over the years, with notable updates in 2015 and a significant overhaul in 2024 that introduced a USB-C port.
But what truly sets the Magic Mouse apart is its innovative design, courtesy of Jony Ive's signature style. The mouse features gesture controls and automatically pairs with Macs when connected via USB. However, it's worth noting that charging the mouse is limited by its unconventional placement on the underside of the body – a quirk that has become an endearing characteristic of the device.
Despite rumors of a more comprehensive redesign in 2024, nothing materialized since then, leaving this updated model as the latest iteration of Apple's beloved Magic Mouse.

yeah, $68 for a mouse that's been around since 2009... I mean, who doesn't love paying top dollar for something that's basically obsolete by now? 
but hey, budget-conscious shoppers are gonna go wild for this deal, no doubt 
and the fact that it's only available in white is just, like, super exciting (not). it's not like we have better things to spend our money on... like actual upgrades or new tech 
. still, I guess $14 off is something, so I won't complain too much 
! I mean, who wouldn't want to get their hands on that iconic design for under $70? 
I've had my fair share of using the Magic Mouse with my MacBook Pro and it's still one of my go-to peripherals. The gesture controls are so seamless and it's amazing how well it pairs with Macs. I'm curious, though - has anyone else noticed that weird charging port on the underside of the mouse? It's kinda become a design quirk that I've grown to love 
. Anyway, I think this price drop is perfect for anyone looking to upgrade their desk setup without breaking the bank 
! I mean I know it's not like it's breaking news or anything, but still $68 is a steal for an apple product especially considering how much they normally charge 
. I do wish they'd consider updating the design again though - that underside charging thing can be super annoying when it's all dead 
. but overall, yay budget savings! 
anyone else get frustrated with that? 
anyway, 68 bucks is a pretty decent deal, considering the magic mouse has gotten kinda old over the years. i mean, if you're due for an upgrade or just want a reliable mouse, this might be a good time to grab one... but not exactly sure why they released a 'new' model that's still kinda similar to the last one 
. i'm loving that they kept the gesture controls and auto-pairing with macs, it's like they just refreshed an old friend rather than trying to reinvent the wheel. plus, that quirky charging system is actually kind of charming 
$68 is still kinda steep for me but I guess it's a great deal if you're due for an upgrade. I mean who wouldn't want that iconic design and gesture controls? 
. I've had one in the past and loved how sleek and modern it was, even if the charging system was a bit weird 
. I do wish they'd dropped the price on all models tho, not just the white one... but hey, you can't complain about saving 11 bucks
