We already know a lot about the four IPhone 12 Apple is due to unveil the models on October 13, but there are always some surprises that haven’t been leaked before the big day. As unlikely as it is, we hope one of those surprises is similar to the concept that turns iPhone 12 into a Magic Mouse.
Unfortunately, this is not an actual leaked product. Instead, this is understandable Yanko designA glimpse of what could happen if Apple decided to think outside the box a little more and integrate the iPhone and Mac in a completely different way.
The concept envisions something called the Magic Mouse Mini, an advanced type of Pop Socket complete with an optical sensor that sticks to the back of your iPhone. Once it is in place, it means that you can move your iPhone device just like a regular computer mouse. Too clever, isn’t it?

Moreover, the iPhone itself takes over some of the functions from the standalone Magic Mouse, allowing you to use the touch screen as the interface for all the gestures and inputs that Magic Mouse users will be familiar with for a long time.
There will undoubtedly be a lot of new products at the Apple event, including possible ones AirTagsAnd the AirPods Studio And the HomePod mini, But there is no way this would be one of them. Even if Apple wanted to develop this concept, there were likely technical barriers to be overcome before something like this could succeed in the real world.
So far, if you want to use your iPhone as a mouse, you will only have to download one of the vulnerable mouse apps from the App Store. Or stop trying to use your phone for everything and just actually buy the Magic Mouse.
