Several years ago, as phones were getting smarter and more powerful, I thought it would be a cool ide to make a computer that was powered by your phone. It turns out, some company did that, it was a flop I guess. Still, I thought it was a cool idea. Why not use your pone to power your tablet, your computer, your house, your car?
I saw a video about a product that makes a laptop from your phone. Or your Raspberry Pi. Or your tablet, or other stuff too. It’s not perfect, and the reviewer does a good job of explaining why it’s great, but not really. Still, I agree that there’s a future for this thing. If you like to tinker, or you like to try out weird new things, or if you’re stuck at home and want to social distance and distract from what’s happening in the real world, then this thing might be just the ticket. It’s called a NexDock. It is a laptop sized shell for your smartphone, and in theory at least, for your next smartphone too, maybe the one after that one, and also, other people’s smartphones, if you want to lend it out. You can also connect other devices into it, notably the Raspberry Pi. If you are familiar with those, then you might get a kick out of this thing. There is a new Raspberry Pi out too, so it’s worth checking out. (It’s a $35 computer, in case you’ve never heard of it). The link is HERE. Check out the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIJAEcOL6sI If you want to hear an English guy talk with a charming accent, then check out the video HERE. https://nexdock.com/ Comments are closed.
