A MacRumors contributor recently discovered code references to new versions of Apple’s Magic Mouse, Magic Trackpad, and Magic Keyboard that hints that these accessories will likely switch from Lightning to USB-C for charging.
Joe Rossignol for MacRumors:
In the EU, a regulation requiring USB-C as a common charging port goes into effect later this year.
Here is everything that Apple is likely to announce [“very soon”]:
• 14-inch MacBook Pro with the standard M4 chip
• 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro with M4 Pro and M4 Max chip options
• iMac with the standard M4 chip
• A redesigned, smaller Mac mini with M4 and M4 Pro chip options
• Magic Mouse, Magic Trackpad, and Magic Keyboard accessories with USB-C ports
MacDailyNews Take: At this point, the quicker Lighting ports die, the better.

Love the Magic Mouse, use it all day at work and home. The side scrolling is killer.
Do not place the connector on the new mouse on the bottom please. Let us work while charging for a change 👏🏻
