The Best Accessories of 2011


December 15th, 2011 by LAPTOP Editors  

There’s no better way to sweeten up great tech than with a brand new accessory, and over the year we’ve reviewed a long list of handsome, innovative add-ons. The list includes peripheral gems such as an external monitor that works via USB power, a Wi-Fi device that lets you control your home entertainment system from a smartphone or tablet, and one of the finest 4G hotspots to surf Verizon’s LTE network. Want to see what else made the list?

Lenovo ThinkVision T1421 ($199)

More companies are trying their hand at portable monitors to give road warriors more screen real estate, but they’re not all created equal. Our top pick is Lenovo’s 14-inch T1421, which sports a durable design reminiscent of the ThinkPad laptops. Once you’ve connected your notebook to the monitor via USB, you’ll have plenty of extra room for work or play on the 1366 x 768, 200-nit display. Best of all, the matte finish allows for extremely wide viewing angles. If you travel often, you should snatch this accessory up.
