Good idea but let's see how practical it is

Instructions are a little confusing but I figured it out. I can't close the screen when it's lockedπŸ™ but I knew that when I bought it. Stops theft. Expensive but not many options for Mac users. Bulky to transport to the library but actually only weighs 3 pounds. I see my college kid using a laptop in the dorm to protect the laptop, but I'll see if it's awkward for her to use in the library. It might be easier to toss the laptop in a book bag and take it to the bathroom with you when needed.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Expensive

The attitude is frustrating.

There are a number of charts that you must follow to customize it. There are no words, so you'd better hope that your understanding of the diagrams is consistent with the manufacturer's intent. The little knob that connects the locking dock to the combo cable is tricky to install as you have to align it exactly that way with a flimsy little hex. a key is available. You then need to twist and tighten. I checked the handle before installing it to make sure it would fit the combination lock. It…

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
  • Nothing here

Heavy and difficult to install

Apple didn't offer consumers a wide choice of their latest MacBook Pros. I don't understand why they couldn't just put a lock slot in it. Kensington tried to find a solution. But this lock is heavy. It probably weighs at least two pounds, so I don't think I'll want to carry it with a cable lock on a regular basis. The construction was also difficult. He just came up with a bunch of schematic diagrams that weren't very clear. I would have had to find an online tutorial if I hadn't lost patience…

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Great value for money and only requires connection to a laptop.

Just what I needed because now turning off the laptop for the commute to the office is as easy as unplugging the USB-C cable. No more disconnecting two monitors, USB hub, network and power. Or the need to reconnect everything. Pros: 1) One USB-C connection to laptop for power, video and audio outputs, USB peripherals and network. 2) Using two DP ports with CableCreation 1080P Gold Plated Displayport to HDMI Converter for extended 1080p monitors 3) The DP ports also support audio output to…

Pros
  • Security locks
Cons
  • I'm texting back

Reliable and easy to use

I use my laptop more like a desk, with the lid closed and three external monitors on the desk. So I needed a reliable dual monitor docking station. (The third uses a direct output from a laptop, which is a Lenovo Legion 5 15-inch). I tried three other cheap docking stations from different manufacturers and none of them did what they said they would. Their displays kept turning off randomly or not being recognized by the laptop when connected to other docking stations. I chose this dock in large

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other picks

Out of Uni - Combination lock stuck Less than 2 months in use

If the lock didn't fail this would be a very good solution given the limited capabilities of the 2018 MacBook Pro (no security slot on the case). The only problem is that, as others have suggested, there is a very real risk of closing the lid when the lock is on. Long story short, the combo lock got stuck and prevented my daughter from taking it to her college classes. With some trouble and trouble, Kensington agreed to replace the combo lock with a key lock. Read on for a detailed version of…

Pros
  • Notebook accessory
Cons
  • No power
