Necessary Laptop Accessories

Necessary laptop accessories help us keep our dear machine clean and utilize them to the best possible limits they have been built for. Some laptops always look fresh while others look as if they have popped out of the dust bin trash. Certain accessories are so necessary for laptops that it is impossible to neglect them. As we all know laptops and desktop computers are not the same and hence the accessories which work great with the desktop may not necessarily do so with your laptop. The computer does not require you to buy much accessories to keep it clean but a laptop does because of its small size and big price.

The first necessary laptop accessory that you will need for your laptop is a cleaning set. This consists of brush, cleansing agent and a few other accessories which are helpful for cleaning your computer. The cleansing liquid removes tougher stains very easily. Some people also use glass cleansing agent with cotton swabs to clean their laptop screens.  The brush is helpful for cleaning your keyboard corners which you cannot normally reach out for while cleaning.

The next necessary laptop accessory is a mouse and a keyboard. Many a people think that these accessories are not so important. But to me it is really important. If the mouse and the keyboard are wireless, it is an added benefit, but, the cost has to be negotiated. A normal keyboard and mousse which is compact and a very basic kind of accessory will cost you around Rs 200 period. While a wireless input control accessory (mouse and keyboard) will cost you around Rs 900.

Certain laptop accessories save your laptop from the scratches it may be subjected to. Buy a scratch guard for your laptop screen and your laptop cover. This is a very good laptop accessory which helps you keep your laptop looking fresh and new for years together. Certain laptops come with a lid cover which is finished in such a manner that a scratch guard is not necessary. A scratch guard looks very odd on such laptop lids and hence this accessory should be avoided for certain laptop models.

You also get a keyboard protecting laptop accessory which is made from a rubber kind of material which spans across the entire keyboard and makes the entire area around the keyboard eliminated from the minutest traces of dust. The most important thing is that this accessory avoids accidentally spilled water from reaching the laptop circuit thus making it water proof (provided that you do not dip the whole laptop into a pond filled with water). This thing has definitely saved my laptop many a times so don't miss out on this one.

Many people do the stupidity of buying a headphone for laptops. Headphone is an accessory specifically designed for desktops. Many headphones which I tried did not have the tight bass which one wants for enjoy great beats and music. They distort at higher levels. The best sound accessory for a laptop is the intra-ear plug. Intra-ear plugs fit into your ear holes very neatly and are very comfortable to listen from. The noise elimination in intra-ear plugs is just great. The best intra-ear plugs I found was the Bose intra-ear plugs. The music pouring out of this accessory is just heaven. If at all you want to buy speakers for your laptop buy the laptop speakers which do not need an extra power input so that you can use them at places which are even far away from a power plug. If you think they do not sound much higher than the in-built speaker, think again. The quality of the sound may not be good but will be high enough for others to hear. If at all you want it for HD movie viewing then go for the bigger speakers or home theatre set-up. Surround sound is always great with the laptops of the present generation when coupled with great bass producing speakers.

If you can afford to buy a cooler pad for your laptop accessory go for it. Generally every HP laptop requires a cooling pad because of overheating issues. Dell laptops are better without them for the starting few months but later they are definitely necessary. the cooling pad is an accessory which utilizes the power from your computer through a USB port and runs a few fans in it which provide cool air which is being thrust into the bottom of your laptop. IT also elevates the laptop and definitely makes it difficult to keep it on your lap. This laptop accessory definitely increases the life of your laptop and keeps it happy for hours together.

Take care that your laptop has got all these necessary laptop accessories minimum of minimum. Laptop accessories are definitely costly. But, they are costly for a good reason. Laptop accessories avoid many harms from reaching your computer and make you feel safe and blessed for buying them along with a laptop. It is not necessary to buy a laptop accessory from a costly showroom which increases the cost to high to buy. All laptop accessories are pretty much the same in nature and are very necessary for the long and healthy life of your laptop.

  1. Thank you for reminding me of the cleaning set part. Most people feel that a laptop cleaning set is unnecessary. But, honestly speaking what scares the customers is the price of the cleaning set which is way too high. And I cannot afford losing my readers for a thing like that. What would be more sensible is to go for a good servicing once in three years.
