Reallly good,
This plugged right in and was instantly “connected” to the laptop. I wanted a speaker that would start working without my having to go into the “innards” of the laptop, and this did just that. I’ve had it about two or three weeks and am very pleased with the sound and with the ease of clipping it onto the laptop. It has been “knocked around” a bit as is to be expected since I move the laptop quite often, yet it hasn’t been affected. I like the buttons on top, one louder, one softer, and the on-off button. The placement of the USB wire at the back of the speaker has been no problem and it seems very firmly seated. I will always use this brand of speaker in the future. My laptop sound was so weak. Now it is a pleasure to have a full, rich sound.

|Pretty good speakers for a smaller laptop.,
I had purchased the Logitech Z305 soundbar speaker for my main computer which happens to be a laptop of the “desktop replacement” variety. The Z305 is excellent, but too long for the smaller 12 inch screen laptop I travel with, so I thought I’d try the Z205.
Nice compact design. The Z205 has an easy to open clip that fits along the top edge of your screen. The unit is about 7 by 3 inches, weighs a bit more than I would have expected and comes with an inexpensive fabric pouch to carry the speaker and its USB cable. The USB cable has a micoUSB connector on the speaker side and conceivably could be troublesome down the road. Time will tell how durable the socket on the speaker housing is.
There’s a combination volume up/ power / volume down switch on the top.
On my Windows 7 64-bit system, the speakers were recognized immediately and installed without problem.
The big issues are, of course, how loud are the speakers and what kind of frequency response do they have?
Well, the speaker volume at its maximum with my system pumping out everything it can is not “room filling”. Not by a long shot. These speakers provide a considerable boost over the horribly inadequate speakers and audio output of my laptop, but I suspect that in a motel room with noisy air conditioning, you’re not going to hear these well more than a few feet away. Too few feet, as a matter of fact.
The Z205 is more than adequate for a “personal listening experience”, that is when you are sitting at the computer, but beyond that, it becomes problematic. My laptop is cursed with both lousy, tinny speakers and inadequate audio output. I suspect that when used with a computer with a more capable audio amplifier, the Z205 would indeed fill the room with sound.
As for response, they are vastly superior to my laptop speakers which could be bested by a piece of paper rolled into a megaphone shape. Bass response, as you would expect, is lacking, but overall the response is actually “sparkly”. Pleasant listening indeed.
Overall, these are excellent for pairing with the laptop you travel with. They’re compact, come with a useful carrying case and provide good fidelity, if at a lower than really desirable volume.

|Very Good, Not Miraculous,
These speakers strike a very good balance between convenience, low price, and sound quality. As far as volume boost and quality go, these speakers are a big improvement over most laptops’ built-in speakers while still being very portable. Don’t expect these speakers to turn your laptop into a full-blown entertainment center. They do, however, make most TV, movies, and music sound good enough to use for portable entertainment. For a reasonable price of about $30, these speakers can make your laptops’ sound go from unlistenable to quite listenable, but don’t expect the quality of a dedicated stereo system or home entertainment center. The one-piece clip-on attachment and USB power makes these speakers a lot more convenient to move and travel around with because you don’t need any extra power cords or to worry about anything dangling from wires.
