Highlights
Quality
The cable made from good quality materials,long enough,strong and flexible.
It is high quality kensington lock for dell laptops.
First of all i would really check that you have a need for this product.
The cable is not so flexible, but that comes with the territory of carbon steel cables.
Price
My only reservation is the price of this cable.
Packaging/appearance
The packaging for this is a strong slim cardboard box that protects the item perfectly.
The packaging may as well be non-existent but they certainly offer peace of mind.
Competitiveness
They work fine with a bunch of the 2-in-1 dell inspirons.
