Apple is rumored to be working on new renditions of the Magic Mouse, Magic Keyboard, and Magic Trackpad, which will finally have their Lightning charging ports replaced with USB-C - at least, according to some code found within the recent iOS 18.1 update. The trend of updating all devices with EU-compliant USB-C ports continues for Apple and its range of hardware.
As any user of the current Magic Mouse will know, the Lightning charging port is located directly on the underside, effectively making it unusable while the peripheral is plugged in, along with a few other cons that you can find in our Apple Magic Mouse review here (which, FYI, opens with the line "Apple does not have a good track record with mice"). While it currently isn’t possible to use the Magic Mouse while it is being charged, the Magic Mouse 2 could introduce some innovations.
