 "Another amazing product from Apple" | 2008-09-20 |

| This mouse is great. The one I got was shipped without a manual, startup disk, or anything else. It was just the mouse in a shipping box. It was so easy to use I didn't even need any of those things. I put the batteries in and my powerbook found the mouse via bluetooth and I was up and running. Amazing. A must have for anyone using a laptop that gets annoyed using the trackpad. |

 "Brilliant... until it breaks" | 2008-08-07 |

| The Apple Mighty mouse (in both USB and wireless formats) is a worthy contender for the best mouse ever made. In particular, its tiny hyper-sensitive vertical & horizontal scroll button genuinely speeds up on-screen "productivity" to a level that, once you've got used to it, nothing else will do. Brilliant, that is until the scroll button stops working which in my case is about every 9 to 12 months. Bad news then... well yes, no piece of kit should do this, but right or wrong that's the way it is and when it happens I happily shell-out for a new one because it's that good to use. Look on it as the world's best disposable mouse and you won't be disappointed... |

 "This mouse is the worst thing apple has ever made" | 2008-08-03 |

Now, I've been an apple fan for several years now. I love them. When this mouse came out, I was so excited, and ran out to buy one.
That was a mistake.
After having it for about a week, the little scroll ball stopped scrolling down. It still scrolled up fine, and side to side, but would not scroll down, no matter how much I cleaned the ball or anything.
One day, I replaced the batteries because they were almost dead. BAM! I could scroll again!
I finally realized that once the battery level gets lower than about 65%, the scroll down stops working. Why? No one knows. Not even apple. Because I had the mouse for so long before I figured out what the problem was, Apple was unwilling to help me.
After having this mouse for about a year and a half, I just destroyed it. It works almost as good now as before I ripped it apart! ;)
Please save yourselves a lot of trouble and avoid this product! I wasted $70! |

| This is a fantastic mouse for apple computers. It has a slight learning curve but once you get the hang of it, it is a perfect mouse with OS X. |

 "loses connection easily due to cheap switch" | 2008-07-31 |

the 2D scroll wheel is great. however, apple really needs to get over the whole one-button thing.
also, the switch that keeps the mouse turned on is a flimsy metal tab inside the battery housing. mine has a tendency to release pressure on the on switch, causing my mouse to mysteriously lose connection. hours of fun trying to troubleshoot that one! thanks apple. |

| I was reading reviews here and people mentioned that it right clicks but is hard to get to work. I never realized that it right clicks because I can never make it work. It is very uncomfortable in the hand, and I have small hands. I like the scroll wheel but it will only work for a few months then stop working in one direction. (I am on my second one) I wish there was more choices for bluetooth mice, but most seem to be small and designed for notebooks. So I am stuck with this one. Matches my computer, but that is the best thing I can say about it. I love my old logitech USB mouse I have on my PC, but I don't want a dangle hanging out of my iMac, so I use this. |

I loved it at first, but:
1. The scroll wheel will simply die after 2 or 3 weeks and there is no easy way to fix it (unless you want to spend time to crack the case open, take the guts apart, clean up the wheel and put it back together.)
2. For some reason, my Mac lost the connection regularly (I used it with my MacBook Pro.)
3. The shape is probably the worst design you can think of if you use a mouse every day (my wrist started hurting a lot.) Beware the infamous carpal tunnel syndrome.
4. The right click doesn't work and I had to use CTRL+click to get the right click.
5. It's expensive for what it is.
I am now using a cheap wired Microsoft mouse and I am still looking for a decent ergonomic mouse to use with my Mac.
In my opinion, this is the worst item Apple ever designed. Save your money and go buy a Logitech or a Microsoft mouse to use with your Mac. |

I'm unfortunately on my 3rd wireless Mighty Mouse in under 2 years. The problem with the first two was the scroll wheel stopped working. Both had the same issue - it would stop scrolling in one direction, then shortly after it would stop scrolling in both directions. Luckily I did get the extended warranty with my iMac so the replacements have been free.
Otherwise the mouse is really nice, and I like the double side button feature so you can pull up all open windows and choose the one you want to be active.
The wireless work great, so that's another positive.

| It's great at the beginning, but sooner or later, the scroll-down function will literally die. There is no non-destructive way to clean the ball to restore its function. |
