So I had some spare money that I was going to use to get another X301, recently backed pic related on kick-starter instead.
Just wanted to ask why these things died out originally? I mean, there hasn't really been anything like this since the Motorola Atriix. The idea makes sense with how powerful phones are these days, why not a resurgence?

What is pic related though? Why do I have to go through the effort of finding out what you are referencing just to reply to your shit thread.

Oh wow, a laptop that doesn't work until you plug your phone into it, what a great idea

>sit down
>plug phone in
>use it
Why is that such a complicated process?
>>56678955
that's fucking retarded.
>>56678985
Because it's an unnecessary step. Why not just buy a regular laptop instead?
>sit down
>use it

But a laptop doesn't cost $99

It's a hundred dollars with a 1080p screen.
If you already have a phone you now have actual input and a screen, the biggest con is that you're now stuck with android.

Pretty sure you could find a similarly priced laptop with god-awful, phone-tier specs. And the battery would last like ten times longer.
That of course assuming this Kickstarter will actually deliver, which they rarely do

Read the fucking file name.

If the laptop shell is full of batteries since all the components are in phone already it could last pretty long it could even charge your phone.

Jesus that is beyond retarded

For $100 it makes sense if your being cheap. But beyond that a laptop with be better in every way.
This actually interests me as a poorfag that has a phone more expensive than his laptop. Also my laptop is fucking huge and I hate to lug it around, might buy this once it releases because I dont back kikestarters
