This week, Apple decided to discontinue the space grey Magic Mouse 2, Magic Keyboard and Magic Trackpad with all three products still being listed for sale, but like it did with the HomePod the product listings say: “While supplies last”, in pretty small text.

According to a report from Canalys Apple managed to ship 16% more Macs in 2020 than it did in 2019, but as the report point out it is still behind its main PC rivals, such as Dell, HP and Lenovo.
