The main bummer is that it didn't seem to do anything to cool my 2019 16" MacBook Pro. The Macboook's intake vents are on the sides with hot air blown out the back and the bottom of the case is insulated to help keep it from getting too hot. That all makes for the fact that a little air blowing up from underneath does little to cool it. Under heavy processing my cpu and gpu temps remained at ~180ºF/160ºF with and without this cooler and the system fan speed was not affected. Now, if you use it on your lap then it will for sure help keep your legs cooler, but I use a padded mat for that. On a desk I can't really justify needing this as it doesn't help cool my MacBook nor does it offer any ergonomic benefits, such as angle adjustment.
PROS:
* Very open design allowing for maximum air flow from all sides.
* Sturdy metal grill over the whole top surface (probably aluminum, though it feels a bit rigid for it to be pure aluminum).
* Excellent air flow! More than I expected, actually.
* VERY quiet (21dBA according to manufacturer specs.)!! The typical laptop cooling laptop fans (for both Macs. & PCs) are far louder and, in the case of my MacBook Pro, would completely drown out any noise coming from this cooling pad (when running at full speed). Definite bonus to have the cooling pad running with very little noise!
* Very sturdy and quite big rubber feet on the bottom ensure that slipping on surfaces isn't likely. With the added weight of a laptop sitting on the cooling pad, I don't see how it would move even if cords are accidentally yanked.
* Speaking of cords, the channel underneath the unit for the USB cord is very well designed and effectively keeps excess cord length out of the way.
* Nice long USB cord so the unit can be plugged into any available USB port on any laptop -- be it on the sides or the back.
* Pass through feature on the plug is very handy for laptops with limited USB ports available. Since the plug is a bit "chunky" some may not like to deal with it on the sides of their laptops -- especially Mac. users -- so I'll note that the cooling pad DOES work just as effectively when plugged into a USB hub. This is where the additional cord length would come in handy as well. I didn't try it with a USB power unit plugged into a wall outlet, so I can't say if that would work -- though I can't see why it wouldn't.
* Flip down feet on the back bottom surface allows for tilting of the laptop. Handy because the cool pad does raise the computer up about 2". The angling "feet" would also serve to increase airflow even more.
* Stays on even when the laptop is put into "sleep" mode -- at least with Macs. it does. Some of that will be dependent on laptop make and model.... Many PC laptops cut power to USB ports when in "sleep" or "suspend" mode.
CONS:
* Minor --- do wish the product came in at least a silver/aluminum finish.
* Minor to Moderate --- would be nice if the unit had an optional power adapter connection for those who don't want the unit to drain power from a laptop running on battery power. Also, as noted above in the pros section, some laptops cut power to USB ports when in "sleep" or "suspend" mode and all do so when the computer is turned off. This is a con because those computers are still capable of charging batteries and, thereby, heating up. Macs. especially get very warm while charging batteries. So, how big a con this is depends on your individual computer's functions.
* Moderate --- the pass through connector could & should be much smaller. It sticks out quite a bit and I can see how someone could damage the USB port by hitting the connector accidentally. This risk is only magnified when another USB device is piggy-backed onto the already big connector. This is also where a power adapter would come in handy so users wouldn't have to plug it into their USB ports, thereby eliminating the risk of damage. The plug itself if well constructed and quite sturdy, but, because it IS so tough, the ports could easily sustain damage from accidental impact.
NOTE:
The cooling pad has a raised center grill directly above the fan. I note this only because I'm not sure there isn't a laptop out there somewhere which doesn't have "feet" to keep it slightly raised above the surface it rests on. If your laptop doesn't have "feet" you may have some difficulty resting it with any stability on this cooling pad.
CONCLUSION:
All in all, I'm very happy with this cooling pad and would definitely purchase it again. As an Apple tech. support provider, I'll also be recommending this cooling pad to my clients! If you have an Apple laptop that you use for more than just surfing the web and word processing, this cooling pad is an indispensable tool to extend the life of your computer's hardware. You don't need fancy LED lights, etc., which just draw more power.... A cooling fan just needs to cool a laptop efficiently & effectively... That's what this unit does and does it well!
I was quite satisfied with the airflow it provided for my laptop (a 17" CyberPowerPC with the entire rear half of the base as fan intakes). It certainly doesn't replace the laptop's built-in cooling and I think it's unrealistic to expect that, but it did push heat out better as a result of the pad.
The X-Slim is decently large, though my laptop does slightly overhang it by about 1/8"-1/4" horizontally on each side. It's minor enough that I didn't even notice it until I was shopping around again and noticed lots of complaints by other people about different pads about overhang.
This thing is stupidly sturdy. I just sat on mine to test it, shifted around, bounced, and this thing's mesh barely budged. The plastic on the underside isn't quite as sturdy, but hopefully your laptop doesn't weigh over 100 pounds.
ONE OF THE FEW COOLING PADS WITHOUT LEDS. Yes that deserves all caps. This trend of adding blue LEDs to every pad is terrible. In actual laptop operation you get virtually no benefit as the laptop should be covering up the fans, but if you have it plugged in at night the vents just spill out blue light to help disrupt your sleep. CoolerMaster, keep making cooling pads without LEDs!
Possible issues:
First, the center of the pad is slightly raised and has nothing to grip your laptop. It's less of an issue as this pad's feet to tilt it put it at a fairly shallow angle, but be aware that If your laptop doesn't have rubberized feet, it will almost certainly slide off center a bit. The raise is minor enough that I can't imagine it will frequently be an issue, but if the rubberized feet on your laptop are very worn down it might be enough to keep them from contacting the pad to be able to grip.
Second, and the more glaring design issue: the power cable is hard-wired into the device. There's some accommodations to it built into the the pad that I didn't notice (namely it has slots the USB plug can fit into and lock into place on the bottom), but not noticing/using them meant that at the airport going through TSA trying to put my laptop back into my bag with the cooling pad sheared the USB plug straight off. It's my own fault both for being in a rush and for not utilizing all of the cable management options it had, but a design with an external cable slot instead would have also negated the possibility.
With that said, I'm satisfied enough with the quality and price that I'm considering whether to buy another to replace it, or buy the NotePal X3 (Which boo, has an LED, but at least you can turn it off separately from the fans).

Ventilador de ancho:36 cm aprox. Ventilador de largo:24.5 aprox. Altura: 2cm. con unas patas que llegan a una inclinación de aprox. 65 grados.
RESUMEN: Ventilador de amplia duración para algo que se notaba muy sencillo y frágil (cosa que no lo es), conectores decentes de un buen material. Llevo 2 meses con el ventilador y no me ha dado fallas (lo utilizo en jornadas de 12 horas o más). Ha disminuido el calentamiento de mi pc un %20 aprox. Venía bien empacado y protegido. Lo volvería a comprar si es que se llegara a descomponer. Calif: 10/10
Más detallado:
Hoy es 1 de Julio del 2018. mañana cumplo 2 meses con el ventilador; para ser sinceros pensé que me duraría menos de 1 mes jajaja
Este ventilador lo he utilizado todos los días en jornadas de más de 12 horas diarias o a veces hasta más, realmente ha durado demasiado para ello (Recomiendo comprar un bote de aire comprimido y limpiarlo cada 15-20 días para que no se le junte el polvo, aunque regularmente no se le junta mucho). Es un ventilador muy sencillo la verdad, pensé que no serviría para enfriar mi laptop ya que regularmente la utilizo para jugar juegos de alta capacidad. Antes la pc se calentaba hasta 90 grados y cuando la utilizaba sólo para estar en el navegador llegaba a 60, ahora cuando juego no llega ni a los 75, un ventilador realmente muy funcional para algo que se veía tan sencillo y frágil (Obviamente debes tener cuidado con los cables.
La entrada que tiene el conector no se a dañado, por lo visto es de un buen material. Detecta bien las usb's cable no tan grueso pero de un material de plástico contra rompeduras.
El ventilador es algo silencioso, no suena casi nada.
Calificación 10/10.
Entrega rápida y super bien empacado, venía con sus burbujas protectoras y la caja venía sin maltratar
En un mes actualizaré sobre su estado si es necesario
*actualización 20/06/19*
Definitivamente esto fue mucho más de lo que esperaba. Dentro de poco cumpliré un año con el y sí que aguanta para uso rudo.
Este es uno de esos productos que volverías a comprar
Luckily this one is quiet, durable and seems to be helping a tiny bit. However in the long run dont expect drastic (like 10 degrees Celsius) temperature decreases. I've noticed maybe a 1-3 degree drop which is mainly due to better airflow under the laptop where the main intake vent is located.
In all honesty if you're having bad temps while gaming on your desk, consider re-pasting which will evidently cost you the same as this pad ($20CAD for AS5), cleaning fans + heat sink. I've done these and can still hit 98c which throttles games so my solution was to combine all these things (This cooling pad + re-pasting + Throttlestop to disable turbo and lock my cpu at a constant 2.4Ghz + undervolting -50mv and finally using a fan 'mod' software found online specifically for lenovo laptops to reduce temps).
For the most part I longer get throttling while still being able to maintain reasonable performance, but lesson learned: Do extensive research on a laptop's cooling system before purchasing if you're considering a gaming laptop. I've opened mine up several times and I can tell you that a high performance 3.4Ghz (at turbo) cpu + 1Ghz GPU (core) reallllly needed sepearte heat pipes and not just one connected to two sh*tty fans that dont even spin on max unless you use 3rd party software to alter the controller on the board locked by BIOS. I cant speak for cooling pads geared towards "gaming" as that may be branding but in short:
This pad has made a minor yet NOTICABLE difference. I can personally feel the base of the laptop and consider it "warm" now where as before It was quite clearly HOT.
Note: As for the pass-through USB component, it works just fine and outputs enough power to allow a standard wired Xbox360 controller to work just fine.
Update: Had this for many months now. Got myself a new Asus GL502VSK gaming laptop and gave my old Y50 to my girlfriend and was not willing to part with my X-Slim so I actually purchased a second so we both have one. Really helps to keep temps reasonable and if anything the function to allows us to tilt the keyboard is super nice as it puts far less strain on our wrists while gaming for over 2 hurs.
ORIGINAL REVIEW: Using this to cool my Asus RT-87U router. The mesh allowed me to install screws to mount the router. I use hooks to hang the whole thing on my wall. I observed the router was running relatively cooler even on a hot day so the product fit my use. Deducted 1star due to the product not having an on/off switch and being a bit noisy. Overall happy with the product.
