I like the idea with the E-Ink display. It feels very natural and the device could also be used as a eBook reader. But it should run Windows on ARM for sure. It’s not meant to be a mobile working station more like a digital notebook.
I actually thought it was real paper.
There is some E-ink pads that you can write on, though they are not that cheap for that they are. But having two display is definately cooler can could be more useful.
I think there will be an ARM powered dual-display Windows devices coming on next year, it just make more sense to run it on ARM especially especially for smaller sizes. Bigger dual-displays like what Asus showed, Intel would be also make sense since they can be used for heavier apps like Photoshop and even do like for audio production.
Basically anything from 10 inches and below, ARM makes more sense. Anything above 12 inches, Intel and ARM depending on what target market the device is. 14 to 15 inches I think Intel would be preferable since it’s a bit more of a workstation with that size.
I saw something like this 3 years ago
Amazing but why not just have it be two screens so that you can run 2 apps . Onenote can be use instead of that pad
There were 2 laptops showed at Computex, which has on both sides screens.
probably because of battery life. This will only be one category of a two screen solution coming.
Windows bar at top is kinda weird
I always have it on the left. Makes more sense for me.
Islan promotes terrorism
Prepare to fight the jihadis my bois
UtechS d
OriginalNoseBleed yes Habibi! Let’s start Jihading now!
and you promote imbecility
Wrong channel to slander and not that woke afterall. Lol
I really want a device like this. Hoping to see at least somewhat of a variety this fall.
Simillar concept to Lenovo Yoga Book
Wtf are those thick bezels
Prototype
No, thicc bezels
It’s there to hold the device
The screen ration, the bezel size, feels early laptops before 21st century
It’s a prototype.
Why does the top screen have such big bazels?!
Phoenix Dawn probably because its a prototype. No reason to spend too much money on a concept that won’t be sold. They’ll probably leave it up to OEMs
Oh that’s an angle I hadn’t thought of. Makes sense.
When the device is folded, it is as thick as the pen (8-10 mm). Each screen with glass and digitizer is already 2-3 mm (two screen total 4 mm?) + the chassis thickness…. you need to find place to keep the CPU, heat sink, battery… etc. You need space to run wiring, hide the electronics, also the hinge. One can make a thin bezel, but then the system will be much thicker. It is a design trade-off (for now).
Why do all these dual screen concept devices look like they’re from the 90s?
it’s like the Yoga Book
Wish the screen was A4 size like a proper notepad.
wishing they would sell an e ink tablet for designers
I suppose Microsoft Courier is a product ahead of its time
Looks like the Lenovo yoga book taken to it’s logical conclusion. I like the idea even if not completely practical
Was estatic knowing Lenovo is planning to produce their 2nd gen yoga book. Then I see this thing, prefer this footprint than the yoga book, but we’ll see if ever both product comes into the market
I’d rather have this than the 2nd gen yoga book 7.9 inch just perfect for on the go
Can you please release this I dont want lenovo version…. But make it lte…! LTE LTE
Don’t tell me it runs Windows. Not interested.
