The only reason they don't let you charge it is because it's a recycled design of the MM1 which used disposable batteries. The Magic Keyboard and Trackpad which came out the exact same day both let you use it plugged in and charging, even wired! The Magic Mouse shell was just not designed with a cord in mind at all.
I have personally been in meeting where my boss forgot to charge her magic mouse and we had to wait two minutes for her to open the stuff we needed to discuss. It happens.

- estebank 2y agoThe track pad and keyboard don't need to move, which would introduce mechanical stress on the port and cable.
- Brian_K_White 2y agoThose are both moving parts that must be treated as movng the same as a mouse, because they are not bolted to anything. Any mechanical designer will absolutely treat everything about the ports on those the same as for a phone.

- goosedragons 2y agoThey haven't made any major changes to the design. It's the shape of the thing preventing it.
