...the laptop can cause wearing of paint. The webcam, firstly requires 'labtec' programming to be installed. The disc accompanies the webcam in the box is very easy to install. Instructions appeared on screen, and the process roughly 5 minutes to complete. Once the programme is installed, the camera is ready to use, and attaches to the laptop via a USB port. The webcam can be used to take pictures, videos, internet messaging, or voice messaging. To capture pictures and videos, the small webcam icon in the task bar needs to be left clicked once. A small window of options will open. Quick capture then needs to be clicked on. This will open arectangular window in the middle of the screen. The top section of the window will show the view of the camera. The bottom section enables you to access the options. There are two large buttons on the bottom...

Labtec keyboard

Advantages: Cheap and effective.
Disadvantages: Shows dust

...I have been using this keyboard for about a year now, and it has performed as any keyboard would be expected to; It has a full set of working keys. Not particularly demanding requirements, but it's the price that really sets this keyboard apart from the rest. Presentation: The labtec standard keyboard comes in black and is straight and very geometric in design. It offers no curves on which to rest your hands for comfort when typing. However, for me, this has not been an issue. The figures on the keys are printed in white and stand out easily against the black base coat. In the top right corner of the keyboard are the the num, caps and scroll lock lights, which are lit up green when the according buttons are active and stand out brightly against the dark surrounding. In addition, there is a small Labtec logo above the lights which...

Review of Labtec Standard Keyboard Plus - keyboard

Lovely Labtec

Advantages: Nice to use, pretty, useful features
Disadvantages: None

...I was given a Labtec Ultra-Flat Keyboard for Christmas by my other half (he knows me well enough to know I'd be thrilled with this). He knew that I'd been wanting a new keyboard for a while, and specifically wanted one that was more like a "laptop keyboard", i.e. flat and with 'clicky' keys, and this is exactly what I got with this keyboard. Made by Labtec (who cite themselves as "a leading provider of value-priced peripherals and accessories for computing"), the Ultra-Flat keyboard does exactly what it say on the tin. It is less than a centimetre in depth, and also only around 38cm across, so it is ideal for someone with limited desk space. The other advantage of it being flat (and what I would call slate-grey in colour, with black keys) is that it looks great. It goes very well with a flat screen monitor, especially a similarly...

The Labtec Pulse 485 Speaker System

Advantages: Very good value for money
Disadvantages: None

...of £50. Style - I needed something modern looking, quite small and compact and preferably with wall mountable speakers. At this point nothing else was particularly vital And so I started to browse around on the Internet. I looked at most of the main electrical superstore websites, Curry's, Dixons, Maplins etc but in the end I actually found what I wanted to be cheapest in Argos. The product that I had decided upon was a Labtec Pulse 485 system, Argos were selling these for just £29.99 and so off I went. My first impression when I got my new purchase home was how incredibly light it felt. The big box which I later learned to be called a subwoofer was the perfect size and the two speakers were so slim-lime it was incredible. Appearance wise the subwoofer is rectangular in shape and black in colour with a fancy silver oval...

Labtec mini optical mouse. Excellent mouse that glows in the Dark

Advantages: Good build quality, Accurate and responsive, coloured lights look good
Disadvantages: None

...This is a review of the Labtec mini optical glow mouse. Introduction Most of my online work is done on my laptop computer, but I cannot get along with the built in touch-pad and decided to use a mouse instead, after trying the normal sized mouse borrowed from my desk-top PC, I found that it was too big for the available space that I had, so I bought a mini mouse which was ideal. After using and breaking several unbranded mini mice bought cheaply from my local computer supplies shop I decided to see what was available on line, and after seeing the Labtec mini optical glow mouse, and read some positive reviews on it, I ordered one. What is it? The Labtec mini optical glow mouse is a small wired optical mouse with a USB connector, it is designed for use with laptops and notebook PC?s. The cable The cable...

Labtec Pulse 285 PC multimedia speaker system

Advantages: 2 Speakers, 1 Subwoofer . Compact . Very Good Value .
Disadvantages: You may prefer a more powerful subwoofer for more bass .

...I used to work in a warehouse that stocked these and all the other brands/models. I got bored one day and tried most of them out with my iPod to see which speakers were the best! I ended up with this Labtec Pulse 285 and here is why! I compared: Labtec Pulse 285 Philips SPA1300 2.1 Speakers. Philips SPA2600 5.1 PC Speakers. + more... (sorry i can't remember the others!) Don't be fooled by the 'seemingly' low 6 Watt figure. On paper 6 Watts may seem a bit weak next to the competitors but when tested among 5 other setups these speakers are very loud and even still very clear with volume at 100%. Don't get me wrong you can't start up your own nightclub with these but you get a lot more than you need for PC speakers! In reality the only difference you notice between the price ranges was the amount of bass being produced from...

Labtec axis 301

Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: None

...Being an online gamer i decided to go out and purchase a headphone set so i could talk in person to my fellow gamers instead of typing into the games chat all the time (which often resulted in me letting my team down as i would get shot whilst typing) The main criteria for my purchase was... 1. Needed to be hands free with a mic attached to the headset. 2. Needed to have a long enough cable to reach my sound card without being streched. 3. Needed to be cheap, i didnt want to pay silly prices for something i would only use 3 times a week!!. Enter the Labtec axis 301, it is all of the above, it was simple to setup and came provided with a 2.4 metre cable which is ample for me. The product also supports speech recognition although i havnt had the oppturnity to test the accuracy of this feature yet and a 1 years manufacture...

Labtec Pulse 485

Advantages: good value for money for an under £30 system
Disadvantages: poor sound from the staelite speakers, volume controls are at the back

...I just bought a new 17" TFT monitor and pc, so i thought it would be a good idea to buy some speakers. I set myself a budget of £30 and started looking on the internet, I find ebuyer to have a good selection of reasonably priced speakers. I was looking for something with a little power but on a budget as i had little money left over from the new PC and Monitor. After searching through lots of different speakers I saw the Labtec Pulse 485 price at ~£20, and compared with other systems it offered 8w rms speakers where others were less, however the decidng factor was the sub. There were other systems costing more which only had two speakers, the Pulse 485 offers a 2.1 system with a 12w sub. After unpacking the speakers which do look very nice with my set up as they match with a nice silver and black design, I got to work and made...

Labtec headphones

Advantages: Light on the ears , built in mike, super sound
Disadvantages: Wires can get in the way.

...noticed how funny it is, to listen to someone singing along , out of tune , with their headphones on?. I recon it's because they cant hear their own voice, but they still think they're better than the winner of X factor!.haha ?. Not. But with these on and the mike working as loud as the music, you hear yourself and can adjust the pitch of your voice to match the song being played. (So you'll sound a whole lot better!) General sound quality is superb. Mid and high end sounds are first class, but the lower bass sounds of today's music will have the Labtecs struggling a bit. Media player 9 or 10 will let you adjust the sound quality to suit the environment that the sounds will be listened to. I've set the media payer to normal speakers, and adjusted down the bass until no distortion can be heard. You'll find nearly all 80's music fine, but...

Labtec webcam

Advantages: look, works (lol)
Disadvantages: size of instilliation download. (see review)

...)?.. then you can download the instillation of Labtec's website but it is 30Mb!!!! -*-*- Conclusion -*-*- If you want a web cam that is a fairly good one then I suggest you get a more cheaper one than this. This one is good but you can get better cheaper so I would recommend you get another one. Thanks for reading Ste231191...
