If you have to spend more time on your computer these days while working from home, now is a good time to upgrade it with a new cradle and charging cradle.
Many laptop stands are adjustable and feature cable management options, as well as being a great way to improve your posture and organize your workspace more efficiently.
If you want to get even more organized, we suggest a laptop dock, which will provide a designated place for your device when it's time to log out.
