Get ready to ditch your bulky laptop and embrace the future of portable computing. The Lunar 2-in-1, a revolutionary foldable keyboard with a powerful mini PC built-in, is now live on Kickstarter. Starting at $579 USD, this ultra-compact device packs a punch with its impressive specs.
At the heart of the Lunar lies the powerful AMD Ryzen 7 8840U processor, capable of handling demanding tasks with ease. You can choose from up to 32GB of RAM and 1TB of SSD storage, ensuring you have ample space for your applications and files. Connectivity is a breeze with Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth, and a battery life that promises up to six hours of use, extending to 8-10 hours in lighter office scenarios.
But the Lunar is more than just a powerful mini PC. It’s a keyboard, too. The unique design allows you to unfold the device, transforming it into a full-sized keyboard with a built-in trackpad, eliminating the need for a separate mouse. When fully unfolded, it measures 29cm long, slightly smaller than a compact TKL keyboard. However, its magic lies in its folding capabilities. When folded, it shrinks to a mere 15cm long and 3cm thick, easily fitting into your bag or pocket.
The Kickstarter campaign offers several discounted models and configurations, with global shipping expected to commence in January 2025. The top-of-the-line model, boasting 32GB RAM and 1TB storage, is available for $769. The Lunar’s impressive hardware puts it on par with powerful portable gaming handhelds available today. It’s an excellent option for anyone looking for a powerful, portable, and versatile computing device.
Connecting to a display is effortless with the Lunar’s USB 4, USB 3.2 Type-C, and USB 3.0 Type-A ports. You can also use the Lunar as a storage hub or a standalone Bluetooth keyboard, further enhancing its functionality.
The Lunar 2-in-1 is the brainchild of Shoujie Technology, a company that distributed 400 units for testing earlier this year. The current version available for purchase includes significant improvements based on feedback from beta testers.
As with any hardware-based crowdfunding project, there is always a risk of delays or missed milestones. However, the Lunar 2-in-1 promises to be a game-changer in the world of portable computing. Its innovative design, powerful performance, and versatility make it an exciting prospect for tech enthusiasts, professionals, and students alike.
