so the iMac pro comes with space grey ouse and keyboard.

on eBay there going for like 200 a piece. I question whether 400 or even more is even worth it purely for looks.


will apple bring them out separetly do you guys think or remain ONLY with the 5000+ dollar iMac pro?

Probably if/ when they introduce space grey to the rest of the iMac line at a guess?
 
I thought there would be a keyboard with touchbar by now. It is starting to look like the touchbar is not catching on.

It's still a terrible mouse no matter the colour. Cough up for one or just send a regular one to a specialist paint shop, there's surely some aftermarket custom places out there if you Google for it.

I actually love the magic mouse! I'm working on average 10 hours a day with it, and it has been fantastic the past five or so years. The accelerated 360° scrolling, the great ergonomic design and the feel of the glass button are just great imho.

Having said that, I do understand that this mouse requires a lot of time to get used to it, and I see why many people might not like it.

Is there really merit to the magic mouse? I have one that I tried for a few months and could not get used to it. I really like the idea of a mini touchpad on top of the mouse. Ended up sticking with the mx master. It has a nice side scroll wheel, forward/back buttons, and a thumb button that lets you do the 4 finger touchpad stuff.

I have to agree it’s not exactly Apple at its ergonomic best for usage, I’d definitely plump for the trackpad with an iMac personally.

Its main drawback is the lack of a scroll wheel. If it had that I'd be happy to use it, but a scroll wheel (With button) is a pretty important thing in the majority of applications I use, personally. Trying to use AutoCAD or Cinema4D with a Magic Mouse is a less than magic experience. Otherwise it definitely looks pretty!

The lack of a scroll wheel is actually one of my favorite features. There's so much more you can do with an all touch surface, besides the very nice 360° scrolling. With BetterTouchTool, you can map the middle mouse button to pretty much any area of the mouse.

Agreed love my MX Master 2S. The only issue is it is BIG! I use the M510 when traveling. Still big, but fits better in my computer bag.

It the mouse does not have a scroll wheel, I am not using it.
 
I’m using the Razer Lancehead wireless with its color scheme set to all white. Perfect match for the space gray MBP
 
yes I am aware tat u can get your Magic Mouse coloured, but I those type of people who like originality you know?

sounds like this space grey stuff is solely exclusive to the 5000 dollar iMac pro for a while now?

Just got an M535 Bluetooth mouse for $23 from staples yesterday. Super easy connection to my MBP. Its LWH = 4” x 2 1/4” x 1 1/2”. Don’t know if that’s smaller than the M510.

I happen to love the Magic Mouse. Very solid and gestures are useful. I think I am in the minority, however.
