Review on πŸ–±οΈ Brydge W-Touch Wireless Precision Touchpad for Surface & Windows – Designed for Surface, Black by David Crawford

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great Windows Precision Touchpad with gesture support, looks like something from Microsoft

This is a Windows Precision Touchpad. Any gestures you set for a laptop touchpad will be translated to that touchpad. I bought it to reduce mobility and hand fatigue. Also for scrolling left/right and zooming on the desktop. Good: - This is a Windows Precision touchpad, general settings with laptop touchpad - Set up in seconds just by Bluetooth pairing, no need to install drivers - Size is good (13.9cm x 8.4cm x 0, 7-1.1 cm, 156 grams) - Spacebar + Alt keys width - Highly durable all-metal body - Minimalist design - Leaves no fingerprints - All Windows gestures are supported/tested and configured with the Settings app up (no additional apps required) - Pinch zoom - Three/four finger swipe up/down and tap - Two finger swipe up/down and left/right (X/Y scrolling) - Light tap - Two finger Tapping works like right-clicking - Double tapping and dragging works - It's still possible to click if you hold the touchpad in your hand and not on the table - ie the clicking doesn't come through the rubber feet but through the entire base - The Konnekt ivity is good and no sleep issues so far, it's about 2ft from my laptop - Comes with a short USB-C to USB-C cable Not great: - No Swift Pair support - Very noisy when pressed - Wood on the table greatly amplifies the clicking noise Bad: - No glass top. this is metal The surface is cool and very smooth, still much better than plastic - Noticeable lag, still usable - Mouse speed is slow - Tested at around 70Hz compared to the Surface Precision mouse at 130Hz (both Bluetooth) - Clickable only in the lower part of the touchpad - can be clicked exactly halfway down - hard click

Pros
  • Useful for more than it's intended purpose
Cons
  • A long time ago
