I just open d my shiny new 5k iMac and noticed the charging port for the mouse is on the underside of it. Not a problem but is there any kind of dock for it as I can't see one on the Apple Store.

Such a stupid design. Why didn't they put it at the front...So you can use it whilst it charges...
 
Quote from Macworld.com review:

"Apple has said that the Magic Mouse 2 (along with the Magic Trackpad 2 and the Magic Keyboard) are fast-charging devices; the mouse can get nine hours’ worth of battery life in about two minutes. So, in the time it takes for you to visit the bathroom, stand up because your Apple Watch told you to, or go to the kitchen to grab a beverage, your drained Magic Mouse 2 will have a charge that will last a typical working day. Really, the charging port on the bottom of the mouse isn’t a problem—but sometimes people need any excuse to be outraged over Apple products. Apple’s press release says a fully charged battery can last “about a month or more.”

I think the charging port at the bottom is ok. That is the smallest of the problems with this mouse. The real problem is the horrendous ergonomics...

Exactly why I could never get on with mine when I had the iMac... Stuck with track pad and various Logitech mice. MX Master right now, and not idea how people use the Magic Mouse, but that's horses for courses!
 
I know it is in the stupid place.. But the battery life a long long time.. So put it in charge while you're asleep or gone for a coffee break..

But if you're like me get the touch pad too..

oh.. Which option did you goes for the iMac?
