I love it, but wonder what happens when cat hair gets into the LED hole. The IR diode output dropped off suddenly, so really bad mousing. Mouse-wise I just had to replace my 6 year old Magic mouse. It's nicer than Chiclet, but I still make more typos with it. The HP keyboard on my Windows machine is only about half stroke. Got a Logitech keyboard for my Raspberry pi 4. My typing error rate is about half what it was when I was still using the Apple Chiclet style keyboards. Some vendors seem to think your keyboard should take up your entire desktop. Also, lots of keys in not very much space.

They're very reliable full stroke keyboards. I use them til the labels come off too many keys. So, I'm just using my old wired USB mouse for Windows and end up using it frequently on MacOS too.Īs a refugee from 80's computing, I go to the thrift store and buy old Dell mechanical keyboards for $5.00 apiece.

It's OK on the Mac, but I'm also running Windows and it really doesn't work well for my old legacy software that wants a physical middle button/scroll wheel. I never liked the Magic Mouse before, but figured I should give it a chance and also thought that "real" Apple products might have fewer Bluetooth problems. Was originally planning to buy a BenQ wired mouse, but when it was time to place the order, they were out of stock. Don't really know if this is a keyboard issue or a Mini Bluetooth issue (there have been lots of reports of problems). Got in the habit of typing some random characters and then deleting them, which pretty much fixes it.

When I login at startup, it appears the keyboard is asleep and "eats" the first few characters I type, so I could never get my password right on the first try. I like the keyboard a lot, at first I thought it was basically the same as my old USB Apple Extended Keyboard, but comparing them side by side, the new one has a nice feeling with better tactile feedback (more of a click when you press the key). They are very expensive, but at least B&H was selling them for $10 less than Apple. I got the new Apple Magic Keyboard and Magic Mouse (space grey, of course, LOL). I agonized over this a bit myself, have always preferred hard-wired USB peripherals but finally decided it might be best to keep the old-style USB ports free and use Bluetooth. A thoughtful cable management strategy (cable raceways, cable clips, USB hub mounted in a concealed location) can help tame the wires.

I do prefer wired input devices with my Mac mini. None of this really helps the next person if they don't like this specific combination. Hell, you could use a five-year old Wacom Intuos digitizing tablet for some of your input (mostly application specific). When I most recently owned a MacBook I often used a Magic Mouse 1 with it.

On the road, I use the Acer with a prehistoric Kensington PocketMouse Pro (with the retractable USB wire) that I originally bought for a MacBook over ten years ago. I am currently using the Sanwa with an Acer notebook computer at home. In the past, I have also used a Sanwa wired trackball this is a passable modern replacement for the great Logitech Trackman Marble Wheel. I am currently using a Keychron K1 (v3 with all black keycaps) as well as Magic Trackpad 2 with my Mac mini 2018. Some use different input devices for different tasks (e.g., gaming vs. There are some who use both a mouse and a trackpad. It is worth pointing out that one is not forced to stick with a single solution. There is no "best" since it depends largely on the individual user. Keyboards and mice are very personal decisions.
