Review on Effortlessly Navigate Your Laptop Or Desktop With The Perixx PERIPAD-501 Wired USB Touchpad by Todd Amarsingh

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Annoying gestures for my opinion

There are a large variety of non-disableable gestures on this thing for no reason at all which you will accidentally trigger all the time when just trying to scroll or even if you touch it in a peculiar way. It makes it borderline unusable. For $20 I wasn't expecting a lot and if it didn't have those gestures, or if you could turn them off, it would have been exactly what I hoped it was.If you don't ever use 2 finger scrolling then this will probably be fine. It's not all that appealing to use but it gets the job done. If you want to use it as a replacement for a broken laptop touchpad then you are going to rather put that $20 toward repairs or a new computer.

Pros
  • OS : Windows 7, 8, and 10
Cons
  • The touchpad may be prone to fingerprint smudges
