I am choosy about my desk setup. I really like working from dwelling with my laptop stand, monitor, mechanical keyboard, and mouse, and I hate utilizing only a laptop computer more often than not. However generally I wish to work from the library or my sister’s kitchen counter with out shedding all the comfort of my peripherals. Enter Logitech’s Casa Pop-Up Desk.
The Pop-Up Desk weighs about 2.7 kilos and, when closed, seems to be like a small textbook. Which means it suits in most backpacks and tote bags so you’ll be able to take it anyplace. You open it to discover a wi-fi keyboard and trackpad of their designated spots. Simply pop ’em out after which configure the case right into a stand to maintain your laptop computer at eye degree, utilizing magnets to attach the platform to the sting of the case.
There’s additionally a compartment to carry the USB-C charging wire (it does not include an influence block) that expenses each equipment. It isn’t large enough for a lot else, however it may additionally maintain your cellphone charger too, a pen, and possibly a skinny stack of Put up-it Notes.

Logitech makes dependable keyboards, and we suggest many of them. I want the Casa Pop-Up Desk included a cute mechanical keyboard, like Logitech’s Pop Keyboard, as a substitute of a quieter membrane keyboard. I like clicky-clacky keys, however that will possible make the entire thing larger, bulkier, and costlier.
Nonetheless, the Casa Keys keyboard included right here works properly, with a slight incline for comfy typing. It is a compact keyboard, so it does not have the numpad or perform row. I favor a full-size keyboard, however to be used after I’m away from my desk it is good. For those who usually use your laptop computer keyboard anyway, you will not be upset with it.
