If you are one of those people who own the Apple’s Magic Mouse, you may be experiencing awkwardness in using it and pain in your wrists after hours of use. One man did and decided to do something about it!
After reading the same reviews he noticed the same design flaw and being a product designer himself, he went to work!
He finished by inventing a quick and comfortable solution and cleverly naming it the 'Fix.' The design is made of silicone (which is softer than a pencil eraser) and it integrates a suction cup for easy attachment and removal to the magic mouse.
If you plan on using the magic mouse for more than thirty minutes a day, this product is geared to reduce any stress to your wrists and improve the overall ergonomics to your magic mouse product.
Check out the video below to see how it works.
