Lilbits: Rabbit’s Project Cyberdexk, Apple’s MacBook Ultra, and Qualcomm’s Arduino Ventuno Q

The Rabbit R1 launched in 2024 as a handheld AI device with an unusual design featuring a bright orange case and a scroll wheel for navigation. It was widely panned by reviewers for failing to live up to its limited promise. But the company behind the device has continued to plug away at the software in an effort to make the weird little device more useful.

Now Engadget reports that Rabbit is […]

Kernelcom is a compact mini-laptop with a 12.5 inch ultrawide touchscreen display, mechanical keyboard, and no touchpad (crowdfunding)

Most laptop computers released in the past few decades have a familiar design. With a few exceptions, you can expect a 16:9 or 16:10 aspect ratio display on top and a low-profile keyboard and touchpad on the bottom.

The Kernelcom takes a different approach. According to the description in a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign for this mini-laptop, it has a 12.5 inch ultrawide touchscreen display […]

We’ve seen handhelds and mini laptops with Intel 8088 chips and a couple of other models with 386 SX compatible processors and even FPGAs configured to work like Zilog Z80 […]

AYANEO is working on a gaming phone, mini-laptop, and a whole lot more

AYANEO has been selling handheld gaming PCs since 2020, making the company one of the pioneers of this space, along with GPD (who’s been at it since 2016) and One Netbook (2021). But the space has become increasingly crowded in recent years, so while AYANEO doesn’t plan to give up on handhelds anytime soon, it’s interesting to see that the company is looking to branch out into new […]

Random question: I have ordered a #Topton #MiniLaptop, an N100-based clamshell with a 7" screen. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/3256807812061361.html

They're sold under many brands.

Anyone have one of these? Can you identify the specific #SSD type? To preserve resale value while installing Linux, I thought I'd pop out the shipped SSD and put in a blank one. It's stated to be M.2 2242, but it does not say whether it's SATA or NVME. I'm guessing SATA because (I think) that would be cheaper, but it's just a guess. Thanks.

This 7 inch mini-laptop with an Intel N100 chip sells for $250 and up

Netbooks may have gone out of fashion years ago, but a handful of Chinese PC makers continue to crank out cheap, tiny laptops with hardware that’s just good enough for basic tasks… sometimes by stuffing newer components into older models.

Case in point? The X-Plus Piccolo Series71 is a mini-laptop with a 7 inch display, an Intel N100 Alder Lake-N processor and 16GB of RAM. It also has a […]
