The project has been in development since January 2015 but arrived this month to Kickstarter, which could reach $ 500,000 in just 38 hours, ensuring that lenders have access to a more powerful battery that lasts between 8 to 10 hours .
the idea of the team that supports Superbook is simple: use the smartphone processing to “feed” a laptop with 11.6-inch screen, full keyboard and extra battery. Where you have “heard” the way? In several sites.
From the Padfone from Asus the Motorola Atrix, there are several attempts, but none successful. The new Elite X3 HP with Windows 10, is the concept that has many enthusiastic users, powered by Windows Continuum, but Superbook can bring new hope to the Android enthusiasts in this field.
The proposal involves producing a “shell” laptop which connects the smartphone, like a simple accessory. Synchronization is guaranteed for the main applications, and Chromebooks have shown that the concept makes sense and is practical.
The app that enhances this use is Andromium OS, still in beta, which can be downloaded to any smartphone with Android 5.0 or later through the USB port, allowing when connected to Superbook support all processing. The first “adventure” of the team was to finance a dock for the same effect, but eventually abandoned the idea due to some limitations.
To realize the concept some minimum to be achieved: the smartphone must have a dual core processor, 1.5 GB of RAM or more, 25 MB of free space (at least but it is recommended more than 100 MB) and a USB port type C or micro B. it remains to prove in the real world model of functionality, but at least the images and videos show a quite acceptable operation for various applications.
the truth is that membership is to be positive and those who join the project can access the Superbook for a value from $ 99, as of February 2017.
