Just because you say something is brilliant and innovative that doesn’t make it brilliant and innovative.
In many situations Apple isn’t the first but is the first to do it right.
This isn’t one of those situations.
This is right up there with removing the headphone jack and putting the lightning port underneath the Magic Mouse.
It is most definitely innovative because no one else has done it that is the very definition of innovative, you might think it's a bad innovation I think it's a good innovation.
Back to the headphone jack are we, I notice there was a howl of whinging over that but none of the fawning reviews of the new Pixel phone nor the inter webs as a whole suddenly care about it at all, Apple have removed 100 year old technology, shocker.
I've got a magic mouse II about once every three months I need to charge it over night. You charge your phones every night so what is the problem. Oh what if you forget to charge it and you have an urgent job, well I'd say take a 5 minute coffee break and you'll have enough charge to last the end of the day. And being underneath the mouse it's not prone to dust.
We can thank sweet baby jesus that you do not design our products.
