Prime Day is over, but Apple’s Magic Mouse is still on sale for its absolute best price, which means you can grab one for $80, a good $20 under its MSRP. It’s the same price we saw last week during Prime Day, so it’s nice to see a deal that hasn’t expired yet since most other Apple discounts have disappeared. Plus, it’s rare to get any savings above a couple bucks on a Magic Mouse, so we’ve surprised to see this one is still around.

The best thing about Apple’s Magic Mouse is the multi-touch surface. So, instead of the clunky scroll wheel, you can just use gestures like a trackpad. You can scroll by sliding a single finger up, down, or sideways, swipe between pages with two fingers, or double-tap with two fingers to open Mission Control. 

The mouse also looks sleek, with a slim design. The foot design also makes it slide smoothly across your desk. Battery life is impressive on this tiny little thing as a single charge will power the mouse for about a month, which means you’ll rarely have to hunt for a cable. There’s a cable in the box, too, so you won’t need any extras. 

The one annoying bit about this mouse is that its charging port is on the bottom of the mouse. So, if you run out of battery mid-workday, you just have to flip it over and go take a break. It only takes a couple of minutes to get it back up and running, but still, stopping work to charge your mouse can be annoying.

But for $80, the Apple Magic Mouse is an easy pick if you want a gorgeous accessory to go with your MacBook.
