I have no idea what I'm seeing here.
It’s an apple Magic Mouse and its new battery backup.
The possessive of “it” is just “its”
“It’s” is short for “it is” like “you’re” for “you are”
I’m not trying to be rude—just want to be helpful. I used to incorrectly use it’s the same way.
So did they write "its" or "it's"? Because the comment is currently correct.
I was too focused on the first "it's" that I missed there was a second one. You're right.
It isn't fixed.
its fixed now
You get a reluctant sidevote from me
👍 😃
Subtle.
No, it's not fixed.
I think they just wanted to use its wrong
What about it's wrong?
Downvoters must have hated being in school. Rude teachers correcting grammar all day...
But for Henry's it's still apostrophe s. Because that makes sense.
Its is a possessive pronoun. His, hers, theirs, and its, not hi's, her's, their's, and it's.
A mouse that can only charge if placed upside down, or in rare 3rd party charging carriages. Apple making things nice, neat and simple as they usually do.
iPhone 15 pro USB C charging a Apple Magic mouse (lightning port located on the bottom).
Wow. And I thought I had seen bad design before. It's rare to have a wireless device that is entirely disabled when charging.
It's so people don't just leave the cable in so it always looks clean and slick.
...fucking hell
Apple - hold my beer
I know plenty of headphones that can't be used while charging, but that's often because it would be inconvenient to use simultaneously
That was one of the main reasons why I sold my Sony headphones and replaced them with Airpods Max. Charging the headphones while in use isn’t really any more inconvenient than using wired headphones would be.
My Sonys can't be used with Bluetooth when charging but you can use 3.5 mm audio input so they act like wired when charging. Probably because they're using a fairly standard Bluetooth chipset which also controls charging
To be fair, I charge my Magic Mouse once a month and it takes less than an hour. Throwing it on the charger overnight when I leave for the work day isn’t a huge deal.
How does the phone know not to charge itself by draining the mouse?
Doesn't look like any sort of fruit I've seen!
