What is a windows 8 touch mouse

Hello there,

My answer is yes you can still use your mouse in Windows 8, I already installed Windows 8 on some of my PC to test it well my old equipment and accessories still works on Windows 8.

Well about the Windows 8 touch mouse upon reading some advertisement in Microsoft it is a touch mouse that has features of a large touch sensitive surface that responds In 1, 2 and 3 fingered gestures that are optimized for PC use.

And also this touch mouse is the most compatible mouse for windows 8 because of Windows 8 special features like adjusting sensitivities on the mouse and can adjust how fast you want for your motion reactions or quicker scrolling. And there's a lot more ways to customize your touch mouse in Windows 8. For more reading.

Hope this help you answer your questions.

Have a nice day.

Hello Chris,

The Windows 8 touch mouse it aimed at making the PC or the laptop be able to use touch control. The current touch screen laptops as well as PCs can only be able to support two-touch gestures and therefore they will not be able to work successfully with Windows 8. The following are the key features of the mouse:

• It has got 4-way touch scrolling that enables you to scroll vertically as well as horizontally by just using the sleek touch strip.
• With the touch mouse, you can be able to flick up, down as well as side to side when you are navigating spreadsheets, long documents as well as web pages. You can scroll with a gentle or you flick quickly using a finger.

Regards,

Carl
