The Magic Trackpad 2 is a multi-touch and Force Touch trackpad produced by Apple Inc. as a successor to the Magic Trackpad. Announced on October 13, 2015, it is similar to its predecessor as a Bluetooth enabled trackpad with the key differences of a larger form factor, rechargeable battery, and Force Touch. The trackpad is compatible with Apple Macintosh desktop and laptop computers running OS X El Capitan versions 10.11 and higher.

The trackpad features a lithium-ion rechargeable battery and Lightning connector for charging and pairing. The trackpad provides haptic feedback via Apple’s built-in Taptic Engine that is similar to the technology in new MacBook trackpads including the same Broadcom BCM5976 series chips for touch control.

The Magic Trackpad 2 was released alongside of the Magic Keyboard and the Magic Mouse 2 in October 2015 to help complete Apple's Renewable initiative. The main theme with the new peripherals is that the set is environmentally friendly by design with the Magic Keyboard, Magic Mouse 2, and Magic Trackpad 2 each using a fully rechargeable and recyclable lithium‑ion battery. This eliminates the need for alkaline batteries.
