ROCCAT Sova MK Gaming Lapboard Review

ROCCAT has just the solution for you in their Sova Gaming Lapboard. This combination gaming keyboard and mousepad hopes to bride the gap between desk-and-chair

– Comfortable ; – Mechanical key switches ; – 2 extra USB ports ; – Long USB cable ; – Great software

– Only two keyboard choices ; – Designed for people who use the mouse with their right hand only

So when I got my Steam Machine last year I was really pumped because I sit in front of my PC most of the day and taking that gaming experience to the living room would be a nice change. Then I realized while the Steam Controller is good, it does not...

Roccat Sova Review (Gaming Lapboard)

Lapboards seem to be the new in thing with Corsair and Razer releasing their take on the concept recently. When we tested them we found that Corsair really pushed the idea to the max without perfecting it. Razer took a more compact approach which had...

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....

Fantastic lapboard for the lounge. only 1 issue

I have had this for a week now and the keyboard is great, the weight is not a problem. However the mouse pad is slippery and could do with a way of stopping the mouse from sliding around so much.

Perfect for sofa/bed gaming

I love this product as it's ideal for myself, as somebody who prefers to game from the comfort of my bed. There are a couple of alternatives to the Sova on the market; the Razer one seems to small and the Lapdog from Corsair looks cool but doesn't...

ROCCAT Sova Mechanical Gaming Lapboard

well designed, loads of mouse pad space. Compatible with other branded mouse and headset.

due to the nature and material of the mouse pad and the position it's in the mouse will slide and sometimes fall off the lapboard. A add-on stop guard would be good to help reduce this, but mouse pad is removable so scope for a gripper surface for the...

Game in comfort

So glad I decided to buy this. I was sceptical because of the price but it's great. Game in comfort not stuck in a office chair can enjoy gaming from anywhere with the extra long cable. Also the two USBs built in to the keyboard means you can power...

Roccat Sova Membrane Gaming Lapboard - UK Layout

Almost PERFECT for lounge gaming. Absolutely love this thing and it is the best option out there.

Mouse area is super slippy. It's a great surface if it was always flat but a slight angle on your knees can cause your mouse to leg it. Standing up with it and trying to keep it straight, your mouse is definitely going walkies.
