While the Logitech MX Master 3 is a terrific mouse for the Mac, reports claiming that Apple CEO Tim Cook prefers that mouse over the Magic Mouse are false.
The Wall Street Journal last month published an interview with Cook, in which he said he uses every Apple product every day. Soon after, The Verge's Wes Davis attempted to replicate using every Apple product in a single day. During that...

If you have an 11-inch iPad Pro or a 4th or 5th gen iPad Air, this is a great deal for a great accessory. In my opinion, the Magic Keyboard adds so much functional value to the iPad as it provides a trackpad, a second USB-C port, and doubles as a case. Oh and it has backlit keys and you don’t need to charge it. Since the usual $299 price is definitely a bit steep, this is a great discount.
