I’ve been bitten by this. I’ve gotten a battery warning in the AM at the start of a day and had my mouse die in the early afternoon. It’s annoying that I can’t just charge it while working so I had to dig around for another mouse and use that while it charged. I hate that I have to check the charge on it and then forget after a while because it does last a long time. So it’ll die on me and I’ll get good about checking charge for a few days and then forget for a while and boom it happens again. If Apple sold this config I would definitely replace my current mouse with a better design.
Logitech had the foresight to put a little light on their devices that lets you know when the battery is low. But I guess that would ruin the sleek form factor.
Which is not that useful for a device I don't really look at, and is covered by my hand when in use. I can continue using my trackball while it is charging, though.
It is covered by your hand because it has bad ergonomics.
Good mouses have plenty of space for lights.
