Is there any point in trying to use this with a laptop?

There is one if your laptop has a good graphic video card that can take advantage of 2560x1440 high resolution.

Pretty much like what everyone has said here:1. Check to see if your laptop has a displayport/dpmini OR dual-link DVI OR look into if HDMI cables can support that rez.2.Look up if the graphics card in your laptop can support that rez. Just go to the product page for the website of your card and it should be there.I have a 3-4 year old laptop (Dell XPS L501X) and from what I have researched it should be able to work with this screen.

Although most modern laptops that are made with gaming in mind should be able to handle this kind of resolution, you might need to get one that has display port, or dual-link DVI (although I have not seen any laptop that comes with a DVI output). Some HDMI cables might not support anything higher than 1920 by 1080.

I use this with a MacBook Air and love it. Better resolution, more screen real estate, great picture. Would buy another one.

Only if you have a newer generation laptop with graphics that are able to handle that resolution (2560x1440), I have a Haswell 13" MacBook Pro Retina that works quite well on it.

There sure is...but depending on your laptop. If you have an old cheapo laptop with a graphics card that can't handle the 1440p resolution then probably not, but I use this monitor with a 15" Retina Macbook Pro and it works great using the Macbook HDMI port which displays the full 2560x1440 resolution.

I haven't tried but it should work. You don't have to worry about damaging anything by plugging it into your computer.

You can, but you should be sure that the port on your laptop is a video OUT and not video IN. Check your manufacturer specs to be sure.

You can but the picture will be very pixelated. You can try a few of the usb 2.0 adapters but off a laptop my guess is you won't have the best of picture either way.

I used it with my laptop. No problems. I need to use the USB cable, though, my laptop doesn't have bluetooth. If your laptop has bluetooth, you should be able to set up a wireless connection.

I use the bluetooth function to run my iPhone and iPad through the system. There is a USB port on the back so I would think a laptop would not be an issue, but I have not tried it. I hope this helps.

Sorry, i´m not 100% sure because i have a Laptop with Windows, but i´m pretty sure that should work.

I don't know :-(. It has a regular USB connection, so I really don't see why not, but I don't use a laptop, and I don't know what kinds of problems that it could entail. Sorry.

I'm afraid not, this device is to be used in a PC, desktop or laptop because drivers must be installed, it works without any fault for its intended use.

i purchased assuming it was able to work with my laptop internally, however it seems it will only work externally. i think it is for a desktop.

It has to be plugged in to a USB, so if you bring a laptop it would work well.

You would have to have a separate audio cable. If your laptop has a mini (1/8") headphone out, you can use a mini to rca, or whatever your audio input would require.

I use it for external HD removed from their encasing. Do not know how you would use it with a laptop HD.

This device is just a projector. If using a laptop your laptop should have speakers or use speakers that can be hooked up to your laptop.

I assume you mean a laptop? Yes, as long as it has an aux audio plug. that's how I use mine. Great sound.

If your computer has a bluetooth adapter (internal or external) you can use it. I bought a cheap dongle so my bluetooth sound experience has been poor with my laptop. It works brilliantly with my android lg optimus, though. Let me know if you have any more questions.

No, this is analog you need a soundcard for it. MAybe look for some external ones, not as good but better. Don't waste your money for this for a laptop.
