I am a long time MacBook user, and I have never felt the need to buy a Magic Mouse from Apple. It has nothing to do with the Lightning (now USB-C) port on the bottom. And, by the way, yes, it’s an annoying design decision, but the outrage is blown out of proportion here.
I really like the trackpad and use it in a way that I never did on my Windows PC before I moved from Windows. The only time I get a mouse is when I try to play a game on my Mac. Magic Mouse is not an option.
I know many people, especially professionals, work with certain workflows that require more precision than a trackpad can offer. Mouse Magic for buyers. They might be excited to get the next-generation Magic Mouse, which should be released in 2026 and feature a novel design and revamped charging port.
The strange thing about the Magic Mouse is that there are rumors that the wireless gadget will have support for voice commands. Yes, we are approaching the era of AI-first computing, where voice control and AI agents will help you manage your computer like never before. When Magic Mouse launches, Apple Intelligence may get more agent-like features, matching ChatGPT and Gemini.
But why would people talk to a mouse instead of a nearby computer or mobile device?
Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman mentions voice control for the upcoming Magic Mouse in X, reiterating past coverage of unreleased products.
He said that Apple’s main focus is on ergonomics and movement. Voice control will have something to do with AI.
Gurman responded to the rumor from a well-known Apple leak source from Korea. eyes1122 posted an update on it Navermentions the Magic Mouse redesign with a clear reference to Gurman’s previous coverage. There, the voice command feature for the next generation Magic Mouse reappears.
Again, I can’t imagine why I would want to give voice commands to a mouse or in what scenario the feature would work.
I saw telling the AI to select an area on the screen, a collection of documents or files, and move it to a specific task. This will include mouse pointer movement. But this is a feature that will eventually work thanks to macOS’s built-in AI agents or third-party AI tools from OpenAI and Google. It doesn’t matter if you’re operating a Magic Mouse, a third-party mouse, or the MacBook’s built-in trackpad.
If Apple plans to launch an updated Magic Mouse in 2026, we will learn more about it next year. If real, the voice control feature should see more leaks.
