Small, compact and portable, Easy to set up and use, Lots of free software to get started
Software tends to run towards novelty as opposed to truly useful, No builtin systemlevel interface management; though free thirdparty tools are available, Occasional inaccurate or altogether nonexistent tracking
At $79.99, the Leap Motion Controller is in the same ballpark as a premium game controller or a Bluetooth keyboard or mouse. While it is a novelty item at this stage, it gives a fascinating peek into the future of gesture-based control on the Mac. If you'...

Fine-tuned motion control for up to 10 fingers at once, Simple, space-efficient hardware, Well-designed app portal
Limited selection of useful apps, Not yet a valid alternative to a mouse or touchscreen, A wireless connection would be nice
The Leap Motion controller is well-constructed and relatively inexpensive. However, it's more a novelty than a tool -- best served as a means for entertainment, not productivity....
USB 3.0/2.0 Connectivity, Vector data and gesture recognition is inherent from sensor, Complex data input possible in real time, Well
Leap Motion must seperate itself from other similar items offered by demonstrating where the Leap Motion Controller excells, Not a mouse replacement, The huge potential must be translated into tangible performance
The Leap Motion Controller clearly demonstrates the vast possibilities this type of 3D controller represents. There are clearly areas that I can see it will dominate. I experience a freedom and joy when using particle manipulation software which I think i...

Super cool, Intuitive, Basically works, Constantly expanding list of apps, updates, Price
Won't make you give up any other control method, Wide field of control easily triggered erroneously

Don't buy it – yet. I don't know if these are just early problems that can be fixed with firmware or if the technology is fundamentally flawed, but for a device with so much hype and promise, it is woefully disappointing...

Impressive tracking capabilities for a firstgen device. Small footprint. Not expensive. For now, one neat toy to play around with.
Depending on the app, making things work can be frustrating. Better suited for simple gesture games. Poor performance on productivity scenarios.
I admit, the Leap Motion controller is something I want to fall in love with. It's just so cool. However, my experiences with the device indicate that at least for now it's more of a neat conceptual “toy” than a practical device you'll be reaching for eve...
The basic idea of using depth-perception cameras to record even the smallest movements of fingers or a pen generally seems like a great idea. Leap Motion is able to translate the concept well and shows a lot of potential for future applications. An OS int...
Lets you interact with your PC or Mac in novel new ways, Relatively inexpensive, Lots of potential, if app development keeps going strong
Fewer than 100 apps at time of review, of mixed quality, Hard to position on a desk, Individual-finger tracking is spotty, At times, oversensitive
Leap Motion’s $80 motion controller is precise and modestly priced, but the software selection and quality will have to increase before it finds mass appeal. Many buyers will want to wait until the tech is integrated directly into computing devices. ...

There's no doubt about it- nothing else like the Leap Motion exists on the market in its current state. It's an incredibly unique product with a ton of potential. That said, right now, the device feels a little bit like a prototype. While the hardware is...
