Swiftpoint Swiftpoint Mouse review

The Swiftpoint Mouse is a tiny optical mouse, which is small enough to use on the base of your laptop. You can either push it around with only your thumb or hold it like a pencil between thumb and forefinger. The latter is more accurate, but a bit of a...

If you find conventional laptop mice are too bulky and touchpads unwieldy, the Swiftpoint is the portable mouse for you

Xebec-Tech M Touch mouse review

Laptop touchpads are useful when on the move, but they can't beat the accuracy and speed of using a mouse. The Xebec M Touch wireless mouse makes an ideal travelling companion for any laptop user, as it's smaller than a deck of cards and will easily...

An inexpensive travel mouse let down by an odd button configuration

Swiftpoint Mouse review

The Swiftpoint aims to be the ultimate travel mouse by letting you use it in situations - while your laptop is on your lap, or when working on a plane - when the only flat surface is your laptop's own palmrest. The Swiftpoint Mouse is small enough and...

For those who prefer a mouse to a trackpad, the Swiftpoint Mouse works in even the tightest of workspaces. It won't replace your desktop mouse, but it shines in cramped quarters, giving you a usable, comfortable input device that even works on your...

Airen RedMouseR Two Gaming Mouse Review

Airen have sent us their new RedMouseR Two 6 button gaming laser mouse for review!

Good design ; Very accurate - good laser optics ; DPI switching is very useful ; Good looking ; Comfortable in use ; Absolute plug and play compatibility ; Rubber coating on top of mouse good for grip ; Forward and back browsing buttons

Budget build materials ; Finish could be better - overspray issue ; USB cable not braided ; USB plug not plated ; DPI indicator is not clear at all ; Side grip issues in clammy hands

On the whole Airen have done a good job with the RedMouseR Two. It's laser optics are some of the best I've come across, it's easy to install, a pleasure to use and is good looking.

ZOWIE SWIFT Gaming Mouse Mat Review

If you have an incredibly good memory you may remember the ZOWIE GT-F Gaming Mouse Mat which I had the pleasure of reviewing last October and which is still living up to praise that I gave it – but for the last week it has been replaced with the same...

So how does it far compared to the GT-F? Well that really depends on what you want from your ‘gaming surface' – I would say that the SWIFT has the advantage when it comes to pure performance (not that you would really notice unless you had them side by...

ZOWIE G-TF Gaming Mouse Mat Review

In my experience the mousemat is quite possibly the most overlooked gaming ‘accessory' and you will find that gaming mice (such as the Gigabyte GM-M6880) or gaming headsets (like the ZOWIE Hammer) seem to get a lot more attention.

Admittedly I was a little sceptical when I first started using it (I mean, how much difference can it make?) but it didn’t take long for it to convert me! All the little things have been thought about with this mat, and combined with my new mouse it...

Mouse Pad Review Roundup - Master, Killer 2, CT, QcK

Are you a gamer on a budget? We have 4 gaming mouse pads all in the same price bracket from Nova Gaming, QPAD and Steelseries. We find out how they compare.

To conclude, all pads we reviewed have been excellent quality. Choosing the winner is quite difficult because all of the pads have been produced to a very high standard and it would be down to personal preference at the end of the day. I personally...

Swiftpoint Mouse

The Swiftpoint Mouse is a head-turner simply by virtue of its unusual design.

Slick design combines charger with transmitter, supereasy scrolling

Pen-style grip may feel awkward in some hands

The Swiftpoint Mouse boasts an innovative design and one of the most versatile scrolling mechanisms we've seen, but the required finger position--similar to the grip of a pen--may be uncomfortable for long-term use.

Swiftpoint mouse review

It's no secret that one of our major gripes with some of today's laptops are their wonky and uncomfortable touchpads, and well, apparently Swiftpoint understands the pain. No, that tiny, oddly shaped optical mouse that your eyes keep gravitating...

Really innovative design ; Strong mobile substitute for touchpads ; Awesome tilt scrolling capability

No software for customizing buttons or tricks ; USB dongle blocks ports charging ; A bit expensive
