Add as a preferred source on Google

If you want to maximize your productivity after buying from MacBook deals or a Mac computer, or if you want to use your purchase from iPad deals as a laptop, then you should consider buying two of Apple’s most popular accessories — the Apple Magic Mouse and the Apple Magic Trackpad. Like most Apple devices, they don’t come cheap, but fortunately, they’re currently on sale from Amazon. The Apple Magic Mouse, originally $79, is down to $68 for $11 in savings, and the Apple Magic Trackpad, originally, $129, is down to $110 for $19 in savings. The discounts may not look like much, but you might as well take advantage of them if you’re going to buy these accessories anyway.

The wireless and rechargeable Apple Magic Mouse is in our list of the best mouse for Mac as Apple’s premier mouse, which isn’t a surprise considering Apple itself designed it. Like most Apple devices, the accessory features a premium-looking design and superb build quality, and it supports swipe gestures because its Multi-Touch surface essentially functions as a built-in trackpad. It will also glide smoothly across your desk with the help of its optimized foot design. It lasts for more than a month between charges, and it comes with a USB-C to Lightning cable for charging purposes. The Apple Magic Mouse is compatible with all MacBooks and Mac computers running on macOS X 10.11 or later, and all iPads that are powered by iPadOS 13.4 or later.

The Apple Magic Trackpad is also in our roundup of the best mouse for Mac, though it’s technically not a mouse. It’s an excellent pointing device though, continuing Apple’s reputation of amazing trackpads in its MacBooks. It will allow you to use all the gestures from a MacBook with your Mac computer or iPad, or even with another MacBook if you want to do the swiping further away from the laptop’s screen. It’s also wireless and rechargeable, with a battery that can last for seven weeks before you need to use the included USB-C to Lightning cable to recharge it. The Apple Magic Trackpad is compatible with MacBooks and Mac computers running on macOS X 10.11 or later, and all iPad models with iPadOS 13.4 or later.

A mouse with a touchscreen just hit Kickstarter, and its feature list borders on insanity
The Super Mouse packs a full keyboard, motion controls, and more shortcuts than anyone could reasonably ask for.
Arctic Fox Super Mouse with touchscreen

The absolutely absurd idea of putting a touchscreen display on a mouse isn't exactly new. Turtle Beach already did it with its Command Series MC7, which features a 2.25-inch control screen. But apparently, even that wasn't ridiculous enough for Arctic Fox Technologies. Its new Super Mouse looks like someone took the chunky old Atari ST mouse, slapped a touchscreen and scroll wheel on it, and called it an upgrade.

The result is a rather unusual-looking mouse that is now on Kickstarter, starting at $199. And as ridiculous as it looks, some of its features are genuinely intriguing.

Apple is less than a day away from launching its highly anticipated OLED MacBook Pro with a touch-sensitive screen. But it appears that the upgrade is going to cost a pretty penny.

"At $2,899, the 14-inch model would mark the highest starting price for a new MacBook Pro model, surpassing the $2,799 Apple charged for a 17-inch version introduced in 2006," says the report. The report claims that Apple is targeting a minimum price hike of $400 for its upcoming redesigned 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models.
