This Dock Turns Your iPhone or Android Smartphone Into A Laptop
PC Watch [impress.co.jp] has uncovered a new makeshift laptop design that turns any smartphone into a working laptop [tomshardware.com]:
The HTL WitH [impress.co.jp] features a 13.3-inch display and a 5000mAh battery. It is compatible with Android and iPhone smartphones featuring display output through their respectable charging ports.
The WitH features a 13.3-inch IPS LCD that supports a 1080P resolution; the clamshell measures 311x210x14.9mm and weighs 2.6lb. The device carries a very respectable 5000mAh battery that we believe powers both the device and charges the smartphone simultaneously. Either way, the laptop reportedly has a 6-hour operation time.
[...] Sadly, this laptop device is not available in the United States and only appears to be available from Amazon's Japanese web page, priced at 61,380 Yen [impress.co.jp] or $449.
A viable alternative to Chromebooks?
