The photos show why every magic mouse I've had always wore funny with the 'right button' getting mushy. There's only one microswitch and the right one is just a leaf spring.
- zozbot234 3y ago> There's only one microswitch Classic Apple mouse design. They never change, do they?
- narrowtux 3y agoThink about having one plane (the entire glass) pressing 2 microswitches. Debouncing one switch is hard enough, now you've got to debounce 2, and detect if the user was doing a really fast double click, or just pressed in the center of the mouse.
- krater23 3y agoDebouncing buttons is a solved problem at all. Thinking that Apple is so good that they put the charging port out of a reason to the bottom but aren't able to debouce two buttons is silly.
- karmakaze 3y agoThe problem Apple created for themselves is staying true to their 'one mouse button' philosophy for too long and literally.
- tinus_hn 3y agoWhy are you even buying that inferior hardware? Apple can’t do anything right, right?
- theobromananda 3y agoI wasn't even aware that it could do right click. The magic mouses I had seen didn't want to do that.
- breakfastduck 3y agoyou have to specifically turn it on in settings on macOS.
- grishka 3y agoIt only needs one switch because it detects which button you're clicking by where you're pressing down on the surface.
