Locked Out: Disappointing Computer Security

This cable security device may seem sturdy, but it falls short in practicality. The combination lock is difficult to set and reset, causing frustration for busy computer users. On the upside, it does provide some peace of mind against theft. However, the inconvenience outweighs the small benefit. Save yourself the hassle and look for a more user-friendly security solution for your computers.

Pros
  • Easy to set up and use
Cons
  • Requires physical access to the laptop for installation of the lock

Excellent deterrent, easy to use but quite cheap in design.

Works as described. If you are looking for a cheap anti-theft device, this will work. It's easy to set up and quite reliable in that regard. However, this is the real purpose of the products. Although everything is built in solidly by itself, there are problems: - The cable is short, thin and twisted. It makes it difficult to really find comfort or space, and it could probably be clipped with something stronger, if not a pair of large, solid adult-size scissors. Twisting also means everythingโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Socket required

Works with Xbox One

Last year my home was broken into and a bunch of small electronic devices were stolen (many were broken/broken), including my Xbox 360, so I was looking for a simple deterrent solution for my Xbox One. I ordered the version with the Kensington K64673AM 4.4mm cable and wrapped it fairly tightly around the TV stand and connected to my Xbox One with no problems. Only complaint was that I wish it was a little longer (7-10ft) and didn't see the point in buying the thicker version (costs twice asโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Computers and Accessories
Cons
  • Very Expensive
