Amazing. Makes a budge laptop feel like a high-end one.
I really hate typing passwords, and about ten years ago I managed to snag a deal for a Dell enterprise edition laptop for home. It came with a fingerprint reader and completely revolutionized how I used my computer; however, I had to part with it as it grew too slow and old to use further.Since that day hunted for laptops with fingerprint scanners in an affordable price range. For many years I failed and pretty much gave u on ever having the functionality again, until I discovered usb attachments.I tried a few, and some were either unreliable or didn't work at all. But I discovered these Benss ones and was overjoyed with how it worked. It works about 75% of the time. This might sound low, but considering how easy and quick it is to scan, you can do two or three scans in less than a second.And I find the only times it fails is if there's some oil on the skin, or strangely, the opposite - I have just washed my hands.One tip is to setup "multiple fingers" but rescan the same finger. That increased reliability massively.With a clean fingertip (that wasn't just washed moments earlier) it scans me correctly nearer to 99% of the time within the first second of scans.I have loved and used the silver version of this for over 2 years, so have just bought a second black version for a new black laptop (ocd would irk me too much having unmatching colours).It works just as well, although I do see that this black version has no constantly flashing led light which is far less annoying (not sure if the silver version got rid of the light too as I bought it years ago).So I am very happy with this product.

Makes logging into Windows a breeze
Glad I bought this. Quick and easy to setup with Windows Hello and it makes it hugely convenient and fast to login to my PC at home. No more typing passwords - every user can use this to log in automatically from the user selection screen.I've had no issues at all in using this, or fingerprints being recognised, at start-up. It occasionally glitches out in a few 3rd party programmes I use it for, but usually unplugging/plugging back in sorts that out. (And is still faster than typing some of my passwords!)

Works perfectly with Windows Hello, not with MacOS yet!
The media could not be loaded. So, my Company had a break in not long ago, and while they only took things of physical value, we realised we need to secure our computers more thoroughly, i've been testing a few USB Fingerprint readers that i found elsewhere (large bulky things) when someone mentioned that one that fits in my PCs usb port was potentially possible! i grabbed one of these not particularly expecting much performance out of it, but hey, this was one that a friend recommended.From testing it, i've found that it unlocks in under a second, i don't know the exact time, but as we're not that impatient, it's all fine.Windows allows us to set 32 character long passwords on our computers, and a pin code that we set to be 16 numbers long, so with both of those set, it becomes natural for us to just use the fingerprint reader. i've done some testing with my employee and she's really excited by it, basically a big toy for her :)overall, the build quality is wonderful, and as all our keyboards at work have USB ports on the side, it makes it super easy to just plug one in and leave it! we will be buying 5 more soon :)

Very good, Would recommend!
Bought this product to try out and hopefully start using the Windows Hello feature in Windows 10. Was apprehensive at first buying this product as wasn't sure if it was going to work but it worked perfectly. I have got it plugged into a USB 3.0 port on the front of my desktop PC. Plug and Play solution as drivers install automatically on Windows 10 therefore no headache having to install the drivers manually. It is very fast at fingerprint recognition and as far as I can tell so far it has been accurate. Value is also very good as well in my opinion!

Does not work with latest versions of windows 10
It requires you to download a driver from the benss website just to be recognised by windows (windows update does not recognise it).Once recognised as a device, it is still not recognised as a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) by windows 10 as it does not support TPM 1.2 which is now the minimum requirement for windows 10.Basically, its a potato.

Easily installed - good alternative to PIN
Bought for an elderly relative's laptop after scammers gained access having obtained the PIN code. Simplifies access to Windows and alongside a Password Manager have got rid of the tattered "Password Book".Didn't manage to integrate the Reader with the Password Manager app. - had hoped to remove need for passwords completely. This may be possible but in the time I had, couldn't get that part to work.

Decent bit of kit - works reasonably well
Works with Windows 10. Pretty straight forward. Doesn’t always read but does 7 times out of 10. Does save time logging in and validating when fingerprint can be used. Is slim enough on my 15 laptop. Might stick out a tad on a 13 inch and lower
