Conveniently it uses a standard micro-USB port to charge and has a on-off switch on the side. To maintain a light (210g) and thin (12mm) profile, the battery is not removable but Logitech claims it holds enough juice for one month’s charge. The touchpad also provides very fine tactile clicking, through the rubber feets oddly enough. The subtle matte texture allows fingers to comfortably glide in all directions – not unlike the Apple Trackpads with slightly less friction. Even though you’d be using four-fingers at most (more practically two finger gestures day-to-day), a full hand can easily fit on the 5-inches of silky-smooth glass top. Taking the device out of the box, it’s easy to appreciate the large flush surface. It takes the right combination of hardware and software to execute on something as simple as smooth scrolling. Thankfully everything Dell did wrong with their attempt, Logitech did right.
My hunt for a Windows touchpad device began with the disappointing Dell Wireless Touchpad. Now, I can finally scroll with finesse on my Windows desktop with the Logitech Wireless Touchpad T650. Yes I’m one of those people that load a webpage or document and just scroll around like a caffeinated hamster on wheels, aimlessly.
