Magic Mouse: charging port on bottom
AirPods Max: can’t turn off without putting in case, can’t use wired, condensation death
I’m ready for the downvotes but I still don’t understand the general hate for the Magic Mouse. Once every two weeks I let it charge for 30 minutes while I’m having a lunch break and never have to worry about it.
How many times do you happen to need to charge your mouse and use it at the same time?
In the same boat as you. When I did use a Magic Mouse I’d just plug it in when I got up to go to the bathroom or get a drink, and not every time either. Never had the battery run out.
I stopped using it because the ergonomics don’t fit my hand very well.
It is also ergonomically horrible, to the point where I prefer to use the magic track pad over the mouse.
Wait, the power switch is on the case? That's so stupid.
That is the very definition of form over function.
No there is no power switch. It detects when it’s in the case and turns off. I think it turns off outside the case after a period of inactivity.
Can’t be used wired out of the box but do support Lightning to 3.5mm jack. Source: owner of AirPods Max who’s had them replaced 4 times now due to faults.
