It is 13 inches wide, perfect for supporting small and medium sized laptops. It even has a non-slip rubber padding beneath to provide extra grip and heat insulation.įor me the practicality and functionality of the Xpad more than compensate for its compromised looks. This figure is, at the time of writing, unmatched by any other models. Test results have shown that the Xpad laptop desk is able to cool a laptop be nearly 4 degrees. Despite the small contact points, the pad has a great grip on the laptop, holding it well in place even at a tilt. Because of this, a big portion of the laptop's bottom surface is exposed to air, creating a great cooling effect for the laptop. The pad has very minimal contact with the laptop (a small 'x' area on the sides). On the other hand, the Xpad scores well in terms of functionality. Some have called the Xpad the ugliest laptop desk ever to be mad! It is also kind of a little chunky and bulky. Despite its 14-inch display, Lenovo's own ThinkPad X1 Carbon is much lighter and thinner, at 2. It weighs a little under a pound has a very 'course' and minimalist design. Dell's Latitude 7390 (2.9 pounds, 0.7 inches) is a little lighter and has a larger, 13.3-inch screen. Xpad is undoubtedly one of the best laptop desks in the market, depending on what you are looking for. As 'heatless' laptops have yet to hit the shelves, those of us who love to use our laptops on the couch or on the bed would have to make do with a laptop desk. The intense heat released by the laptop over long periods of time can easily cause lap burns and soreness. You could never use the laptop on your lap for prolonged periods of time.
