When I looked at this 6 years ago (in relation to MGWT, which is dead although we still use it in legacy products) Pointer events were the way to go and are supported on all browsers now as far as I am aware.
There was talk of a single touch/pointer API system in GWT similar to what MGWT did where it took mouse, touch and pointer events and converted to a single touch event system. Hence you coded to MGWT's touch system and it worked on all devices. No idea if GWT did this in the end. I assume you are using an old IE Edge? Latest Edge uses webkit under the hood and so your problems may go away with this browser. Older IE Edge as far as I can remember does not support touch events but does support Pointer events. Take what I say with a pinch of salt. It has been many years but I believe that is why you have an issue.
