When a youtuber literally replies to everyone in the comments section, you should know how serious he is, in sharing his experience and knowledge...
😁👍🏻I'm glad you think so.
Wrong. They reply to each comment when it is still a small channel. It's a tactic to get viewer subscription. When you have a million subscribers, good luck on "LITERALLY" replying to thousands of comments. 🤣
Have you considered that maybe they would still like to reply, but can't because of the sheer high numbers? Do you ever think there are people who genuinely like replying and not just do it as "tactics" for growth?🤦🏻♂️
There may be a trend where if there is a comment which receives the highest number of likes for the video, only then, the creator reacts to that seeing the number of likes.. for the same video, there may be another user who has asked a very genuine query, but with no likes or whatever.... just my thought
Right. I don't think there's a reason for me to not answer everyone. We're all just people anyway😁
I think the increased airflow alone should be a huge selling point for long gaming sessions.
I agree, my cardboard box was probably restricting the available room for my fans to pull in cool air.😅
@@TheHopelessGeek 😂
Good review! The only reason I am looking to buy one is because of the incline and space underneath allows you to have your laptop at such an angle you can have your external keyboard placed closer to your screen than without!
True, it raises the laptop higher for a bit more comfortable posture.🙂
That's a good point
Yup, it's worth getting one for the desk.👍🏻
You getting critical and not liking and being convinced at first and actually shifting when you experienced it is what convinced me to get this one. Cause I am the same. This is to prevent bias and it seems like you liked the product! Probably I’d do too.
😅yeah, I start off a little critical one my first impressions to clearly see what the product can offer.
@@TheHopelessGeek Yeah same! More vids soon! :))
😄✌🏼
Very well explained without wasting time. I really like the content of this video. Thank you very much for creating such a value addition. Keep up the good work.

I use a painting stand to prop up my laptop and use external keyboard and mouse. Its surprisingly sturdy enough.
Aren't painting stands a bit tall?
wow, u talked really coolly, and literally loved and enjoyed your video and liked that u explained it in a precise way.
Thanks 😄, you may like other videos I'm making too.
Dollar Tree has a stand that looks a lot like this. But, made of plastic. I found it tonight and it fits my phone, tablet and 14-inch Chromebook. At $1.25, it's a wonderful product.
Wow that's so affordable. Hope it lasts a while 😅
Wow what’s the name of it?
Really nice humor man keep up the good work :)
Thanks buddy 😂
If possible, could you please make a video on the best phone holder with sticky base - if you have used one?
I use some wireless chargers I have as my phone holders. They have height adjustment and rubber shoes too. 😅
bought one few weeks ago and I am happy with the experience.
yeah, me too! Pleasantly surprised.😇
Do you use with external keyboard or laptop keyboard?
Man, your content is superhilarious. Liked the video within 30 seconds. Good going bro.

good video mate! I have been using laptop stand like 6 years now as a computer engineer. Funny thing is in my 20's I also didnot understood why the hell people were using these things. now 36 and I can't even have 1 day withouth my laptop stand. the point is my friend, ergonomy is one of the things that saves you from neck, shoulder and back pain. when you sit and work for hours if you are looking down to your laptop you will have soreness after a while. that's what happened to me. ah also I had to upgrade trough the years. New laptops doesn't have a lot of USB ports and I had to upgrade one with a slick design as in your video but with multiple usb and power ports as well. it wasn't cheap but it gave me mobility that I needed as well as new options to connect my stuff in.
I also use external keyboard and mouse, a second or simetimes third montior... it makes thins much easier for me :)
Yes, I've seen one of those stands with a USB hub built in 🙂
Also when using on a public cafe you not afraid of accidents from spilling liquids on the laptop!
That is one major pro in my book
I guess that's true, since it will be up and away from you a bit.
I ordered one to improve cooling, when the bottom of the laptop is raised like that, nothing obstructs the air flow.
Yup, that's an added advantage 🙂
@@TheHopelessGeek then why did you missed it?
Because for my work load at the time, it didn't make a big difference. Now it does, during video editing.
Thanks for detailed review brother.
Is it good for gaming?
I mean will it take the weight of the left hand on one side of the laptop that will be constantly there pressing wasd keys. ?
Or will it flip or imbalance tue laptop?
May not be good for using the laptop keyboard for a long time. The elevation might hurt your wrist. I recommend using an external keyboard while laptop is on this stand, as it offers better room for cooling.
Bro you are literally replying to every comment. That show dedicated your are with your work❤❤
I enjoy answering people's questions😊🙏🏾
these video is absolutely for me...watching ur videos from a long time....remember me when u reach great success
😊thanks for all your support ✌🏼
Perfect stand for a 11.6 inch Chromebook! I replaced my Dexia Rack, it rattles/hums from my laptop"s speakers.
Ah, this one shakes a little with my 15 inch laptop when I'm typing on its keyboard, but no rattle with speakers 😁👍🏻
I apologize if this is unrelated but can I use books to place them on each side of my laptop and elevate the laptop's ventilation for more airflow, does it reduce the laptop temperature? I do some hefty gaming from time to time and I'm looking for a solution to tackle this issue. Although a cooling pad seems to be an obvious answer, my country doesn't sell any nor do my parents allow me to buy one.
Cooling pads do not help a lot to bring down temperatures, maybe 2-3°c. Just buy a simple stand and don't use books to level your laptop.
True, laptops do a good job in their own, just provide some breathing room with a stand.
Thank you.
🙂👍🏻
I enjoyed your humour and review.
I looked at a stand before, but didn't know they were designed for better typing.
Why has it taken me so long to realise that laptops need a stand and are bad for your posture? The better cooling is a bonus.
I will get one of these immediately.
I'm sure it will be a good experience 🙂👍🏼
Hi! Quick question - so if I don't have an external keyboard (I hope I'm using the right term), it will still be ergonomic, right? Thank you in advance if you reply to my comment!
This might work for a while but the elevation may start to hurt your wrists after long duration of typing. It's better to get an affordable external keyboard 🙂
Never seen any of your videos before, but your honesty and commentary are really funny, pure gold. Defenitely subscribing!
Thanks, and welcome aboard 😀✌🏼
I want to buy, i'm a design engineer and laptop should be to air circulated continuesly, keeping on flat surfaces is increasing the surface heat of the laptop.Is this a good product?
Yes, I think this would work well. amzn.to/3uEHDoA
Love your videos bro!
Thanks bud😊✌🏼
0:22 I laughed my guts out.. Dude u shoud be doing standups..
Amazing review.. Thank you..
😂lol. I'm glad you liked it. More like this coming up!👍🏻
With that into, i was like “son of a B, I’m subscribed” 👊🏼🤝
Thanks buddy😄👍🏻
The point of these stands really isnt typing its thermal cooling. Propping it up like this allows more are flow in and out of the laptop allowing it to cool far more efficiently. This is what these are good for.
I guess you're right. Although it helps with the sitting posture a bit too.
Yes. I found this video after another video on laptop dos and don'ts, recommended a laptop stand or sink especially for gaming laptops to assist the cooling.
what about fanless laptops
It'll help with a comfortable posture 🙂
Good Sense of humor, great review I subscribed
Thanks 😊
Hi.. does using this directly with the laptop keyboard make your finger or hand hurt as it keeps your hand in a slanting awkward position while typing
It might. I recommend using a secondary keyboard and mouse anyway, to improve ergonomics.
So bro, I just have a laptop, no external mouse or keyboard. I just realised that I'm always looking down on the screen. So I tried to fix this by lowering my chair and now I can't type in the keyboard as u mentioned, it is high. So I thought a stand would solve it. Can I order the same one u did?
Yes, it'll help with typing and your posture 🙂
@@TheHopelessGeek I was curious about the rubber(in the bottom)coming off. In your review u've mentioned 2 cons. Do u know any other better stands around 1000 rupees
This one from AmazonBasics seems pretty good amzn.to/3ueX7Bh
Bro I am buying laptop stand and external keyboard and mouse. I am buying these to avoid poor posture.
Should I buy only laptop stand as it can make typing experience as easy and smooth as external keyboard and provide me good posture?
Or should I buy external keyboard and mouse and not laptop stand and use cardboard in place of laptop stand?
Or all three?
Yeah, I'd suggest all of these for a better experience with your workstation on a desk.😊👍
Here is a great budget mechanical keyboard: amzn.to/3siUiMJ
@@TheHopelessGeek What should I buy either laptop stand or external keyboard and mouse as I have limited amount to spend?
Hmm.. an external keyboard and mouse will surely improve your productivity. Get those first.🙂
Thanks bro🙏
Happy to help ☺
Hello. Does really buying a stand helo in airflow and making the laptops temperature to decrease even by 4°
This is mainly meant for your posture, but yeah. If your laptop was sitting flat on a desk without much space under the vents, this can certainly help.
Hi there!
I wanna ask a question about this laptop stand.
Can it be used on a soft mattress bed, even if no table is placed beneath it?
Actually I'm planning on to buy it?
This type of stand isn't suitable for soft surfaces. They have a wooden one, which is much bigger and isn't collapsible. If not that, I suggest you consider one of these breakfast-table style stands for working in bed. amzn.to/3QqDdg2
@@TheHopelessGeek thanks for you valuable suggestion
I'll consider it.
I'm gonna subscribe you 🙂
Thanks for the sub 🙂👍🏼
I have a thiccc hp pavilion > 2KG. Soooo can it withstand?
Looking for the airflow & prevention of the jet exhaust when i do adobe Ps.
Yup, if my 3.5 KG can stay upright without wobble, I'm sure any modern day laptop can.😄
want to play games have mouse space around 15 cm due laptop keeping at side to which could not use mouse properly keeping it without any support beneath blocks the air vent due which will get hot soon placed its box like things for support beneath but ended up loosing mouse space should i buy it ?
It's worth getting as it's small and quite functional. It doesn't take up a lot of space.
Awesome video, enjoyed the humor!

When I started your video after purchasing product, I was like it might be pointless but looks cool so why not , but u made my purchase justified at the end
Yeah, this was certainly a good purchase 🙂
any tips why my left fingers and palms kinda hurts after typing? i can't seem to find a perfect angle using this stand
How long are you typing? I wouldn't recommend using this inclination for typing more than a few minutes at a time. An external keyboard is still the way to go for that.🙂
@@TheHopelessGeek ohh so i still need to type with my hands flat? i'm a programmer and also rhythm gamer so i use my laptop for around 6-8 hours a day, ever since i bought a laptop stand back in September 2021 things has been quite going well for the laptop's heat dissipation but this month i just realized that i hurt my fingers tendon typing in a steep angle like that. i do have an external keyboard but i don't use it that much.
Yes, please invest in a good external keyboard for your comfort. The laptop can be on top of the stand for better posture 🙂
Hi mate, do you think using this could reduce neck strain working on the office desk?
If you hunch over a lot with neck bent down on the desk, yes. These will surely help with your posture.
Can you make a laptop cooling pad suggestions video, please
Hmm, okay. Let's see if there are any good quality ones like this stand.
Hai … is the stand feasible for typing long hours? I already have a different stand but it is not portable.
These elevated stands aren't ideal for typing long hours. They're designed to raise your laptop for better posture and air flow. I recommend you get an external keyboard to supplement your laptop setup.
Love the narration
😅👍🏼thanks
i sit on a desk to study for approx. 8 hrs. desk is lower than my chest height, do i really need a laptop stand ?
Yes, you should absolutely get one. Also, please get a desk that is taller than your chair level, at least half way between your stomach and chest.
Bro, please help me out. I have a Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 laptop. It's 16 inches and 2.8 kg.
Can this stand hold my laptop?
Yes, it can :)
I also wanted cheaper to try out n came to ur review..thanks by the way it helped to resolve my confusion due to lot of options available ✨😊
There's actually a newer version available than the one shown in the video. The link in the description is updated to match the latest one🙂👍🏻
@@TheHopelessGeek thank u 😊

I'm looking a laptop stand for my bed wfh setup as I don't have much space in my room to buy a desk... could you pls tell me that will this laptop stand okay for working on bed with 14inc laptop?
It'll support up to a 16 inch one without any issues, but the bed being a soft surface may not be idea for this. Personally, I use this stand on the table and use a different one for my bed - amzn.to/3Rv5Ya7
@@TheHopelessGeek is it sterdy enough?
The one I have is a little different, but yeah it's decently sturdy for short usage in bed.
@@TheHopelessGeek thanks mate for the suggestions I'll definitely look into them while buying it♥️
Let me know if it works well🙂👍🏼

Which one to buy cosmic byte cb gk18 or readragon k552 suggest
If you have the budget, the Redragon is a better keyboard.
Laptop ke neeche airflow ke loye stand hota ha
Ta ke heat na ho zyada laptop ki body aur processor pe bhi load parta ha jab temperature zyada ho i guess
Yes, for better air intake👍
@@TheHopelessGeek 👍👍Fan Hota hai Air bahir nikal jaye ta ke
It takes air in from the bottom and out from the sides (and sometimes the back vents)
I have a laptop stand of Dyazo. Which has really good metal.
👍🏻nice. How much did it cost?
@@TheHopelessGeekI was bought one year before and it costs me around Rs. 949 but now it is only ₹899 because for Amazon great Indian Festival.
Bro i am confused to buy a laptop stand or a coolling pad many peoples are saying that cooling pad cause dust related problems to laptop
Cooling pad doesn't really help.. it doesn't help in reducing laptop temperature even during winter..
The back opening and the height at the back helps in ventilating hot air coming from laptop
Yeah, a simple stand like this may be better. The laptop fans will do the job as long as the vents are clean.
@@TheHopelessGeek Hi Bro, can we keep a 17" inches laptop on this stand?
Yes, it'll work with this stand
Great video

What is your primary use for it? Like gaming, document work, etc. Also, what budget are you comfortable with?
@@TheHopelessGeek Browsing,MS office,YT, online classes, Documents work... Budget would be around 40k ... thanks

@@TheHopelessGeek Thanks a lot brother.. You gain a new subscriber ✅.. Just a one more quarry.. How is the ryzen 7000 series processor... Available in Vivobook go 15 .. is it good or not ? Please reply 😅
Ah, in that case the Vivobook go may be better. Ryzen 7000 is more powerful here.
I purchased a similar device (without the cool colorful cord manager, sigh) for times when I'm using my laptop mainly as a Zoom station. Let's me raise the camera to an appropriate height - access the keyboard occasionally - while the desktop is low enough for my papers & notepad. Surprisingly good purchase!
🙂👍🏼I use this every day now. Helps when I'm editing videos and the laptop fans turn into jet engines✈️ 💨
Can u suggest laptop stand for asus vivobook 15 , plz

Yes, it does a good job of that.
What lighting are you using
For RGB, it's this LED strip from Huelite amzn.to/41w7a23
Yeah laptop stands are worth it.I use one and typing on laptop keyboard is much better.
Yeah, the slight inclination helps with posture too.👨💻👍🏻
Hey bro i just got a asus tuf f17 shud i get a cooling pad or a stand pls help
A stand would suffice for better posture. But for added cooling, one of those fan pads would be better
How good it is for heavy laptop around 2kg weight?
Yes, it'll handle it just fine
I use one and I dont understand why everyone else does not
I, too, love them ever since I started using
It is helpful when you use it alongside a monitor. The cardboard box won't give a good incline.
Yeah, this is a better option for my desk where I use the laptop as one screen and a monitor as a second screen.🙂👍🏻
hey, is it useful for fanless macbook m1 air, the one I'm buying is 500 rs , is it worth it?
It will help with your posture while using your MacBook.🙂👍🏼

🙂no problem
"one day of the year i get out of the house" niceee 😂

Is there any chance to scratch backside of laptop while using this product?
It's possible if laptop has a metal back. Plastic ones could also be damaged, but I i think they can slide easily without scratches. I make sure to keep my laptop directly on the rubber pads when I use the stand.
@@TheHopelessGeek thanks 👍

Its coming in way of fan will it not decrease the air intake ?
Not by much, and it's raising the laptop up, giving more room for the intake :)
