Logitech Cordless Desktop Express Review

By Ian Bell July 10, 2004

Quote from the review:

“I came through at the end with mixed feelings about this setup. While the keyboard and mouse both appealed to me on an aesthetic-level, what with their nice stylings and limited use of desktop real-estate, they had a few flaws that can’t be ignored. For the keyboard, the new layout may take sometime to get used to, but of somewhat more importance was the slightly sluggish response I noted sometimes. For the mouse, the reduced refresh rate can be a minor annoyance as well. While I can’t recommend this set to anyone who absolutely *must* have the most out of their keyboard and mouse (for them, Logitech has other options available), I can recommend it to someone who just wants a plain-and-simple cordless setup that’s easy to use and doesn’t want to be hassled by extra unnecessary features.”

If you have many online meetings and it feels like your webcam needs an upgrade, Woot has the offer for you. Today, you can buy the Logitech C920e HD webcam for $52 instead of $70. The $18 will only be around for the next ten days or, crucially, until it sells out. Woot stock can end up very popular so if this is the webcam for you, hit the buy button before you miss out. If you’ve just snapped up a great monitor deal, you likely could do with a sweet new webcam up top.

Why you should buy the Logitech C920e HD webcam
Logitech makes some of the best webcams around and the Logitech C920e HD webcam will be a great option for many people. It has a 78-degree fixed field of view so it can display individual users in a well-balanced frame. That’s all while providing enough room to share items in the picture too. It has built-in HD autofocus so you can be confident that you’ll be seen clearly at all times. There’s also automatic light correction which is a big help.

I review laptops for a living, and these are two under $1,000 I always recommend

Midrange laptops have undergone a quiet renaissance, with options in the $1,000 range (or slightly less) offering performance, build quality, and displays that rival laptops costing twice as much a few years go. If your budget is limited, but you still need a great laptop, you're in luck.

Two recent laptops I reviewed fall into this category. The Asus Zenbook 14 Q425 and Lenovo Slim 7i Gen 9 offer the same fast Meteor Lake chipsets and excellent OLED displays, but they're not identical. Which wins in a head-to-head comparison?
