For the general term, this touchpad functions as a clickpad because you can use all of the surface as a wide touchpad button. In addition, you can click on any spots to create a left click. The reviewers have tested the touchpad of this unit. He found a problem in doing righ click. At that time, the touchpas was still in the default settings. The reason is the company put a white line on the bottom edge of the clickpad which is meant to indicate the conventional right and left clicks. However, if your fingertip is not positioned accurately, the it will make a left click accidentally when you are trying to make a right click. But don’t worry, you can modify the touchpad settings to use the complete Synaptics software.
