TUXEDO are flexing their hardware chops here with the InfinityFlex, a fully foldable Linux laptop so you can use it wherever and however you want. No that's not drool on my top, honest.
With the ability to fold the screen right down on top of the unit, you can use it as a standard laptop or more like a tablet. Since it has a pressure-sensitive touch display, pairing it up with a pen you can use it for all sorts of artwork projects too. Pretty light as well at only 1.5KG.
TUXEDO put some fun work into this one by the sounds of it. They said "soon as the device is used in monitor or tablet mode, the keyboard and touchpad are automatically deactivated to prevent incorrect entries, the screen content is rotated according to the chassis orientation and TUXEDO OS also adapts its UI to touch operation".
Specifications:
- 14-inch IPS Touch Display, 1920 x 1200, sRGB color gamut: 100 %, Brightness: 400 nits.
- Intel Wi-Fi 6E AX211, Bluetooth 5.3.
- 55 Wh battery.
- Intel Core i5-1335U, Intel Iris Xe Graphics.
- DDR4-3200 MHz SO-DIMM, 16GB on the base model.
- 500 GB Samsung 980 (NVMe PCIe 3.0).
Looks and sounds like a real nice machine.
See more on the TUXEDO store. Available for pre-order with shipping after September 16th. The pen is sold separately.
And the option to have a 4G module is the cherry on top for field workers, no need to use your phone battery!
Isnt AMD way more energie efficiënt and better integrated graphics and longer batery life?
And the hardware getting less hot?
Beside that this looks like an very interesting, but expansive device.

Quoting: ahoneybunAfter trying out a tablet with Linux (GNOME and Plasma) I have to say they all need some work but mostly with the OSK. ChromeOS has the best keyboard since it can also be split and floating which is great for using the system. I want to see more products like this with Linux but we really need to address these issues.Mind you, with something like this I don't think you'd use the screen keyboard much. It has a real one, if you're going to be typing you just fold it the other way.
what else made it horrible back then that isn't better/solved now?
See more from me
