Max. fan airflow

The maximum airflow that a cooling fan can create; measured in CFM — cubic feet per minute.

The higher the CFM number, the more efficient the fan.

Noise level

The maximum noise level produced by the stand during operation. This parameter is relevant only for models equipped with active cooling (see above) — in fact, this function is the only source of noise.

The lower this indicator, the more comfortable the use of the stand will be and the better it will be suitable for situations in which silence is important (for example, for working late at night when others are sleeping). At the same time, even in the loudest models, it usually does not exceed 40 dB — this is comparable to the noise of leaves on a tree in a light breeze; and cooling systems in many laptops can make more noise. Therefore, paying close attention to quiet laptop stands is only worth it if you are using an extremely quiet laptop and do not want to lose this advantage.

Backlight

The presence of a lighting system in the design of the stand. Usually, this function is purely decorative: it does not affect the functionality, but it gives the product a stylish appearance.

The color of the backlight will be useful for those who want to match the stand with the design of the laptop or the decor of the computer desk.

Note that the ability to change the color is usually not provided in this case. So if several options are specified in the specifications, such as blue/green/red, it means that this model is produced in several versions, differing in backlight color.

Connection to a laptop

— USB A. A classic, widely accepted USB port, which has recently been losing ground to the more advanced USB C port.

— USB C. This connector differs from the classic, full-sized USB by being much smaller in size, and also features a reversible design, allowing the plug to be inserted either way.

USB A interface

The USB port interface allows you to understand what speed the connectors have when connecting drives to them. So USB 2.0 is considered the most traditional option — an already outdated format, which nevertheless easily handles with connecting a mouse, adapters (Bluetooth, Wi-Fi) and other peripherals. Its transmission speed is up to 480 Mbps, which is not enough in today's realities. The more advanced USB 3.2 gen1 has a similar connector format with improved bandwidth — up to 4.8 Gbps.

Folded size

Dimensions of the stand when folded. First of all, the convenience of transportation depends on this: if you plan to carry the product along with a laptop, you should pay attention to ensuring that the bag (case, backpack ...) has the right amount of space.

Note that the height of many models in the folded state is rather small, so manufacturers may not indicate it in the characteristics, limited only by the length and width.

Weight

The total weight of the stand. You should pay attention to this parameter first of all if you plan to constantly carry the stand with you, along with a laptop — here light weight can be a noticeable advantage. But if you are looking for an option purely for home use, there is most often no need to pursue low weight: other things being equal, it can be a sign of a small thickness of materials and, as a result, relatively low reliability. In addition, a more massive stand is more stable, it is more difficult to budge or knock over by accidental touch.
