GIGABYTE Aivia Xenon Pro Reviews

PC is going through a transition toward touch interface. The GIGABYTE Aivia Xenon seemed to be a great concept at the right time with the immanent release of Windows 8 as it brings the convenience of a mouse and offers the flexibility of a multi-touch interface. Unfortunately, the concept is great, but the execution is poor. As a mouse, the Aivia Xenon lacks ergonomic design, and the button placements are rather inconvenient. As a trackpad, the need for two handed operation and the use of a button as opposed to a touch gesture for right clicking makes it inconvenient to use. Additionally, it also lacks advanced features such as pinch to zoom. Sadly, while we really want to like the GIGABYTE Aivia Xenon, we were ultimately left disappointed, since neither the the mouse nor the trackpad function well enough for us to love it.
