Pros & Cons
Pros
Installation is very easy, just plug it in and windows will do the driver installation for you. Put it in a usb port and simply plugging in the install, setup process commences. Works with windows 10 fitted to a usb /3 hub it works.
Perfect for windows 10 'hello' and for lastpass multifactor authentication. No more hassle of remembering the password. Reset your account» and other hassles faced of remembering password.
Kensington laptop charger. Works without undue stress. Easy to use without compromising security.
The scanner is compatible with windows 7, 8/8. Then you go to settings and add your fingerprint read for the scanner.
Only downside is that you may not have a free usb socket. The sensor works well and works every time for me.
Cons
The housing is very weak. The thin bezel that clips in the reader end has broken. This means if you're looking for a fido2 compliant device this is useless.
