    We've been using this on our laptop for two weeks and really like the sound quality it produces. It clips right on to the top or side of the laptop monitor without any issues (unless we forget to take it off and try to close the laptop with it still attached). The sound is certainly loud enough, especially if you'll be sitting right in front of it. We've watched several Netflix movies and it seems to do just fine.

    It does take over the sound controls of your computer, and it seems like the interval jumps between volume settings is pretty big. Basically, you just have the options of Silent - Soft - Medium - Loud - Really Loud. But it's not a big deal. It does what it's meant to do. Our Dell Inspiron picked it right up when we attached the USB cable, and it's nice to have the volume and power buttons on top of the speaker itself.

    Cons: There is no protective case for this. Just a wimpy cloth sleeve to put it in. Virtually no protection offered to the speaker. Also, I don't really care for the way the USB cable connects to the back of the speaker. It gets bent very easily because it sticks out from the back at a 90-degree angle and I'm afraid that will be the first thing to get damaged.

    A nice, strong little speaker that does its job well without too much fuss.

    [EDIT: The thing just died on us tonight, after only two months of use. A short has developed in the cable at exactly the place I commented above in the "Cons" section. I've submitted a request to Logitech about repair/replacement. We shall see what they come back with.]

    [EDIT #2: I have been in touch with Logitech, and found them to be quite helpful. They suggested a couple of tests to make sure the cable was in fact the problem. After that, they sent me an email warranty verification form to fill out and return. I sent that in, and within 24 hours they responded that a new speaker and cable would arrive in 7-10 business days. I'm pleased with the response, and Logitech has kept me as a customer because of their good customer service.]

    Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
    I've been using this nifty little speaker gadget for a little over two months now, and have been very happy with it.

    It's a compact gadget that clips right on to your laptop screen, and has power and volume control buttons on one side, and a USB port and a 3.5 mm jack (to connect to external music players) on the other side. It comes with an 18 inch long USB cable, and a small carrying case that can house the gadget and the included USB cable. The gadget uses USB power from your laptop so there's no need for a separate power cord.

    When first connected via USB, the speaker gadget loads a driver onto the computer automatically. The software installation process also automatically makes the Z205 the default speaker, but the simple manual configuration steps for doing so are listed in the included operations manual.

    To compare the sound qualities from my Windows 7 laptops' (Toshiba and HP) built-in speakers and the Z205, I had to manually switch speaker configurations to make the speaker on test the default. I then restart my media application (e.g., Windows Media Player, etc) after each switch, turn the volume setting to maximum, and play one of the audio or video sample files that come included with Windows 7's Media Player installations (e.g., classical music, Wildlife in HD video, etc). The results were clear: the Z205 delivered better sound quality in all cases. The sounds from the Z205 were fuller, sharper, and richer; not BOSE-quality but still much much better than those coming from the laptops' built-in speakers.

    Lightweight and compact, the Z205 can be conveniently packed for travel. The 3.5 mm jack for connecting to external music players is a very much appreciated bonus too!

    Some reviewers have commented that this nifty little speaker gadget can really deliver very loud volume to fill a very large room, while others have opined that the maximum setting is not loud enough for them. My own experience agrees more with the latter: at maximum volume settings, the Z205 delivered sounds that, in my experience, were about 2-3 times louder than my laptops' built-in speakers but I still felt comfortable that the loudness level wasn't excessive. And although the Z205 doesn't deliver BOSE-level sound quality, it's still a considerable improvement over my laptops' built-in speakers.

    Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
    We have several different brands of laptops here at work: Acer, HP, an old Sony, and an old Gateway, this portable speaker attached to every one of them; (update: it also fits just fine on my Dell at home).

    From a female's perspective, I found this speaker to be cute, as far as speakers go - it just looks nice, period. But besides being cute, it's also designed well - inside the clip section there is rubber cushioning so it won't scratch your computer.

    The sound is fairly good, but don't expect Bose-quality. It's easy to install - just plug in the USB cord - each computer found the hardware immediately whether it was XP, Vista or Windows 7 - I tried on all 3 OS's.

    The USB connection is on the back, along with a 3.5mm jack for an MP3 player (you would have to play this while running through the computer).

    If you don't want to clip it on your PC, it also has rubber feet on the bottom of the clip so you can just sit it beside your computer if you wish to do that instead.

    It also comes with a drawstring carry case, in addition to the USB cord.
