The Magic Mouse 2 is a computer mouse developed and released by Apple Inc. It features a Multi-Touch Acrylic surface for scrolling. The mouse detects the difference between gestures on the surface.
Announced on October 13, 2015, it is similar to its predecessor as a Bluetooth enabled trackpad with the key differences of a rechargeable battery.[1] The mouse is compatible with Apple Macintosh desktop and laptop computers running Mac OS X El Capitan versions 10.11 and higher.
The mouse features a Lithium-ion rechargeable battery and Lightning connector for charging and pairing.[2] The keyboard utilizes an ST Microelectronics STM32F103VB 72 MHz 32-bit RISC ARM Cortex-M3 processor and includes the Broadcom BCM20733 Enhanced Data Rate Bluetooth 3.0 Single-Chip Solution.
The Magic Mouse 2 was released along side of the Magic Keyboard and the Magic Trackpad 2 in October 2015 to help complete Apple's Renewable initiative. Magic Keyboard, Magic Mouse 2, and Magic Trackpad 2 each have a fully rechargeable and recyclable lithium‑ion battery instead of alkaline batteries.
