Can't disable touch pad
598514
I like to use a wireless mouse with this, but I can not seem to stay away from the touchpad. No problem, I thought, but it will not disable! Tried Fn-F9, no good.  Then I disabled it from the taskbar menu, but it still will not stop.

Battery life is not nearly as advertised.

For $860 I expected way more for my money.

Windows 8 on an Acer 11.6" AO725-0687 Laptop is intolerable when using the super sensitive touch pad.  I bought one of these and it works great with this laptop.  If you are having trouble using your laptop touch pad with windows 8, I recommend that you try one of these.

I have been incredibly happy with this computer. Great processing power, and I really like the touch screen. My only complaints relate to the touch pad. It is way too sensitive, and adjusting the sensitivity does not seem to make a difference. I frequently find my cursor jumping to random places on the page and I delete things I never meant to delete. The solution is to turn it off, but there is no easy way to do that (my old computer had a key command to toggle it on and off very easily). With this one, you have to go to touchpad properties, turn it off, hit save, then put the computer into sleep mode for it to take effect. Ridiculous. But other than that, a great computer.

For some reason I need to turn off bluetooth and the mouse every time I use it. DON'T BUY

The touch pad to move the arrow around the screen didn't work. :( Probably just a defect on this one. My old one worked perfectly.

Works great, BUT I would like to have better control of what shows on the screens(Home, Recent, ...etc.)  Sometimes, the touch pad does not detect swipes.  i bought the Fire for my mom so she could use it for viewing home pictures, movies, and watch online shows on certain web sites.

The reviews of this device are pretty bang on. But I want to add my two cents on the frustrating trackpad, it is horrendous.  Sometimes it takes a heavy touch, sometimes is a light touch, sometimes it takes a heavy touch at first, then switches to light touch so it's completely out of control. The two buttons don't work most of the time and when I attempt to use the tapping of the trackpad to click, sometimes it moves the cursor off of what I am trying to click and sometimes it works.

Computer is fine but  touchpad is so wide you can't rest wrist to type without hitting it and getting tossed back to a previous screen. Windows 8 functionality is terrible.

The hand rest portion works great but the don't use the trackpad part.  The trackpad covers reduces its sensitivity and its very difficult to remove it after you've got it on.

I am using this for an android PC in the bedroom. The keyboard portion works as needed but I am not a fan of the trackpad function. The scroll function is very jumpy and there isn't a way to adjust. The touchpad also seems to be twitchy when selecting putting your finger on the pad to move the cursor and as a mouse click. There is no way to turn of this functionality either

Everything is great except for one major problem.  The hot key to disable the touch-pad is not working.  I tried to use the fn+F9 hotkey, and it does not work on the Window 10.  I also tried to disable it by using the settings and mouse, but the disable button is greyed out.  I don't want to delete programs or drivers that I don't know and I don't want to download any new drivers and have to figure out how to reinstall them. Just not a complete computer..

Retired this touch mouse after using 1 month. I Disabled all the touch gestures, even then it moves my screens. Went back
to my old mouse and it works like charm.

This is an interesting mouse, it tries to run on its own! Seriously, never seen a mouse move pages and go to corners on its own. This mouse has serious issues. However, it is not a show stopper - i disabled almost all the gestures except for scrolling.

Haven't been able to use it correctly as there is an issue with the touchpad (sometimes it allows me to click, other times it doesn't, and when it does allow it the entire pad is either ALL left or ALL right click).  I've tried all settings in the smart gesture to no avail and uninstalled/reinstalled.  I've also tried all the forums and all the "fixes" and the consensus is it's a defect issue.  This was a "like new" laptop so I'm trying to figure out what the warranty/return process is as constantly using a mouse is beginning to be a drag especially if no work surface is available.  If it worked correctly it might have been a much higher review.

The touchpad had bad instructions and did not work properly at all!  I couldn't control anything with it, the mouse would move and then not move and never where you wanted it to go, gestures didn't work.  Don't buy it.  I returned it.
