Apple removes Intel Macs from Magic Mouse/Trackpad compatibility

Apple has updated its product pages for the Magic Mouse and Magic Trackpad, removing all Intel-based Macs from the compatibility lists. This update occurred around August 25 and was also reflected in related tech specs pages. Despite the fact that the accessories continue to work with Intel Macs, the company has classified these devices as compatible only with Apple silicon Macs.

## Why it matters This change may confuse users still utilizing Intel Macs. The removal of compatibility from official pages could lead to the perception that Apple is prioritizing its new architecture and limiting support for older devices, which could influence consumer buying decisions.

## What we know Users have noted that, despite the removal of compatibility, the Magic Mouse and Magic Trackpad accessories still function with Intel Macs. However, Apple has not provided a clear explanation as to why this change was made in its official documentation, leaving several questions open regarding the company's intentions.

## What remains unclear It has not yet been confirmed whether this change is part of a broader strategy by Apple to discourage the use of Intel machines or if it is simply an error in the documentation. The lack of response from Apple to requests for comments raises uncertainty about the future support of these accessories for Intel Macs.
