    NOTE: SCROLLING AND GESTURES ONLY WORKS ON MAC 15.X SEQUOIA. With that said, it is incredible. I firmly believe the best way to use MacOS is by utilizing gestures and Spaces/Mission Control/ App Expose. That can only happen with the trackpad. I feel very confident in my clicks, scrolls, and gestures and I have only just begun using the trackpad. It feels very natural! The Haptic feedback is a little higher pitched than the MacBook Pro trackpad, but feels just as robust and clicky.

    The trackpad may not be for everyone, but for those who are familiar with its functionality, it’s incredibly convenient. It brings the seamless, intuitive experience that makes MacBooks so great, but on a larger scale. Once you understand how to navigate it, the trackpad offers precise control and smooth gestures that make tasks like scrolling, selecting, and multitasking a breeze. It’s perfect for those who appreciate the efficiency of Apple’s design and want to extend that experience to a bigger workspace. While it might take some getting used to for new users, it’s an excellent feature for those who value precision and fluidity in their interactions.

    Best trackpad for Mac Users

    If you’re already in the Apple ecosystem, the Magic Trackpad is a no-brainer. It feels premium, the glass surface is smooth, and the gestures make multitasking seamless — especially on macOS. Whether I’m swiping between desktops or using pinch-to-zoom in creative apps, it’s extremely responsive. Battery life is also insane — I’ve gone weeks without charging. I actually prefer this over a traditional mouse for editing, browsing, and even general use. It pairs instantly with my MacBook Pro and wakes up immediately from sleep. Yes, it’s a bit pricey, but once you use it, you’ll understand why. If you’re debating between a mouse and this — go with the trackpad if you want a fluid, touch-driven experience. Highly recommend for anyone who wants the full macOS gesture experience on a larger screen!

    In the past whenever I got a new laptop one of the first things I would get is a mouse to use instead of that (most times) dreadful built in trackpad. When I bought my Mac Mini desktop I happened across this Magic Trackpad and decided to try it. Wow! I love it and MUCH prefer using it now to any mouse. Sometimes I may want to lean back in my chair and use it from my lap - something that is a little hard to do with a mouse - this thing is perfect for that. The size, sensitivity and general feel of it are just outstanding. You can do a one or two finger click (simulating the left or right click of a mouse) anywhere on it and the generated click feedback is perfect. Use two fingers to scroll, nice. Multi touch zoom works just like your ipad or phone, perfect! It is super easy to set up. Just plug it in to your Mac with usb c and it connects automatically. It is a keeper for sure. Yes 5 stars!

    I use this trackpad in a work-from-home setup, and it is very useful to maintain control over my MacBook and using the same gestures from the MacBook’s trackpad is great as I don’t lose functionality or have to resort to using the awful Magic Mouse.

    Most of the gestures don’t work with MacOS prior to Sequoia. If you have an older OS, go with the older lightning port model instead, those work perfectly. Frustrating that this isn’t more clearly conveyed, took me a really long time and lots of troubleshooting and searching to figure out.

    Works well but only bought it to standardize to USB-C. Too expensive for what it is. But that's Apple for you.

    BEST TRACKPAD AVAILABLE!!! Apple hit the ball perfectly with this amazing multi-finger trackpad! The BEST accessory I’ve bought for my Mac in a very long time. The track pad has more real estate space than most MacBooks! This thing is a HUGE leap forward in helping me complete my daily tasks faster and more efficiently. Definitely recommend this to everyone!!!

    I’ve been using the Apple Magic Trackpad 3 for a few weeks now, and I’m really impressed. The build quality feels premium, and the large surface makes gestures super smooth and easy. Battery life is great, and it pairs instantly with my Mac. Definitely worth it for a clean, wireless setup.

    Much better than a mouse

    I think the trackpad is much better than a mouse. It requires less desk space and doesn't require a hard surface beneath it. it is also more precise. The Apple Trackpad works very well and looks good, too. This model uses a USB-C (both ends) cable to recharge its battery. The previous model used a Lightning cable (USB-A on the other end).

    I read other reviews and researched it on YouTube. Even better, I caught an open box, excellent condition and saved a bunch of money. After about 30 minutes, I’m ready to lose my MX3 mouse.

    Frustrating Scrolling Issues

    Pros: The trackpad has an attractive design with a large, comfortable surface area. Cons: I’ve used it with both my M3 MacBook Pro in clamshell mode and my Windows PC, and I've encountered similar issues on both. While the cursor movement is generally fine, it doesn’t track as smoothly as my mouse or the built-in trackpad on my MacBook Pro. That said, the bigger issue is that I can't get it to scroll vertically on pages. I’ve tried adjusting settings, searching online for solutions, and troubleshooting, but nothing seems to fix it, which has been incredibly frustrating.

    Purchased this to replace my first gen trackpad since gestures were not compatible with my new 13” M4 iPad. Works beautifully with my mini wireless keyboard and basically turns my new iPad into a laptop. This trackpad looks great, feels amazing, and charges very quickly. Worth every penny.
