While I think the idea of a lapboard is great, my current setup makes it pretty difficult to really utilize it well. Without a streaming box, you have to make sure your PC is in the same room as the TV. What I will use it for, however, is not to play on m...

In my opinion Roccat has nailed the design of the Sova creating the perfect couch companion. The size is spot on and the weight is ideal. For predominantly typing you can move the Sova off centre, so that the keyboard part of the device is central on your...
Quick 1,000 MHz polling rate, Comfy padding on the bottom
DIY modules sound sketchy, Takes four hours to recharge

We had great fun using the Sova, turning the traditionally solitary pursuit of PC gaming into a more social experience to be enjoyed with friends.This lapboard is well designed and cleverly constructed, allowing for blissful couch-based PC gaming at a rea...
Starting with the build quality of the Sova we have a product which feels very sturdy. We noted no defects on the finish. Each component fit nicely and even the little details such as the break off cable offered a decent fit with a high-quality finish. On...
