Review: Interesting mouse alternative - love the zoom feature. - I bought this as a first experiment with mouse alternatives, after seeing it mentioned on a YouTube review of the top 10 touchpads to buy. I read a lot of reviews here and elsewhere before finally buying this when the price dropped by almost £5. Plugging it into Win 7 (64bit) it took just a few moments to install the driver automatically, before being able to use the pad. I still had my mouse connected, and could swap between them without any problems. The basic functions such as one finger tap to select, double tap to open, and two finger tap for right menu all worked easily. Moving the pointer around the screen was also fairly easy, although the pad is quite small so you need to lift your finger off and reposition it to get all the way across the screen. If you were using the pad all the time, instead of a mouse you could alter the settings in Control Panel/Mouse to speed up pointer scrolling. The ability to zoom in and out of pdf documents and photos, using two fingers, like you would with Android mobile phones and tablets is quite appealing and works well. The ability to scroll through pdf documents or up and down photos and webpages is a little bit more hit and miss. There is a scrolling area on the right of the pad and using two fingers in that area is supposed to allow scrolling, but I found it was a bit intermittent and often presented the right click menu or simply moved the pointer around. After a little experimenting I discovered that this is not a device that is improved by pressing harder - far from it - the lighter I pressed on the right-hand side of the pad the better the scrolling worked! Overall, I think this is an interesting and useful alternative to the traditional mouse, with a few extra features such as zooming, that could be handy for many people. I am not about to switch over to it permanently, but I will probably use it for photo browsing and possibly more, depending on how well I can master the light touch needed for scrolling.

Please make sure your device support HID and USB port.Please note that PERIPAD-501II is designed under windows system. You can also work with Mac, but left button has no function and there is also no multi-touch function. **Q: Do you know if this will work with linux?** A: PERIPAD-501II is compatible with windows system. Please kindly check whether your device support HID (Human Interface Device). If yes, you can also work PERIPARD-501II with your device. **Q: Can it be used with a screen pen? I have very bad nerve pain using a normal laptop touchpad or traditional mouse so looking for alternatives** A: the pad is only 9cm x 7 cm (approx.) so I would think that using a pen with it would be awkward. However, I don't know if you can use a pen with this touchpad - I use it as a conventional touchpad **Q: Does this have one finger side scroll?** A: No side scroll section, you scroll with two fingers. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Interesting mouse alternative - love the zoom feature. *by P***F on 7 June 2016* I bought this as a first experiment with mouse alternatives, after seeing it mentioned on a YouTube review of the top 10 touchpads to buy.

No issue with it just never really used it much In the end, was for a project that i was working on but changed my plans. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reliable mouse alternative offering very good value for money. *by P***S on 21 January 2018* Been using this product for about a year now. I use it for typical office applications but also for photo editing and illustration software. I am using it with windows 10 with no problems. In summary, it serves as a reliable and basic mouse alternative. It is responsive but can be intermittent if your fingers are damp. I like the physical, satisfying click buttons. It is nice to click and drag versus (double) tap and drag. This caters for both options and offers good zoom via pinch gesture. The downside for me is the hard wire. If this were wireless, I would be giving 5 stars. ## Frequently Bought Together - Perixx PERIPAD-501 Wired USB Touchpad, Portable Trackpad for Laptop and Desktop User, Black, Small Size (11284) - Super Mini Wired Keyboard, MCSaite Full Size 78 Keys Keypad Small Portable Fit with Professional or Industrial Use for Computer Laptop Mac Notebook --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/50042482-peripad-501-wired-usb-touchpad-portable-trackpad-for-laptop-desktop](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/50042482-peripad-501-wired-usb-touchpad-portable-trackpad-for-laptop-desktop) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-07-31*
