- This laptop folds in a voluminous, heavier form than most conventional notebooks
- The specifications remain with average range with 12th generation and memory processors DDR4
- The listings claim the external support of the GPU, but the real viability remains questionable
Last computers manufacturers have long experienced additional screens, generally through removable monitors or double -screen devices.
Now, a Chinese manufacturer offers a more unusual shot: a triple screen notebook that combines a 16 -inch primary panel with two 10.5 -inch folding screens.
The idea is to provide a desktop work space in a portable format, although questions about practicality and construction quality remain.
Screen design and configuration
At first glance, the non -nameless Chinese system is resembled the external monitor kits that adhere to existing laptops, but with integrated side panels.
Each secondary screen is connected with hinges and folds on the main panel when it is closed.
This design makes the device more bulky than standard notebooks, and measures 374 x 28 mm, with a weight of approximately 2.6 kilograms.
Although it is heavy, it is even more compact than wearing a laptop and two separate portable screens.
In use, the three screens combine to provide the equivalent of a diagonal configuration of 29.5 inches, which offers ample space for a commercial laptop, although thick bezels interrupt continuity.
The notebook works with 12th generation Intel Core processors, with options that include the Core i7-1260p and the i7-1270p slightly faster.
The memory can be updated up to 64 GB through two Sodimm slots, and there is support for PCIE 4.0 storage through a single M.2 2280 slot.
The system includes a 77WH battery, backlit keyboard, digital fingerprint sensor, 1MP webcam, stereo speakers and a variety of ports ranging from USB type A and type C to HDMI and Gigabit Ethernet.
For this device, some lists describe support for external graphics cards, however, the lack of Oculink, Thunderbolt or USB4 raises doubts about viability.
The use of an adapter through the lonely slot M.2 could work in theory, but that would also require a spring with space for storage.
Being realistic, this characteristic seems more like a theoretical possibility than a practical option.
Product pages also conflict in details such as Wi-Fi standards and USB port specifications, which suggests inconsistencies in marketing materials.
The prices start around $ 700 for the base version, but they can reach around $ 1200 for the Core i7-1270p model.
The initial price may seem of average range, but for a laptop with three incorporated screens, it can reasonably be described as an economic portable computer.
That said, buying this device will be a bet because in Aliexpress, the name of the device is not indicated, and the destination page only says that it is a “new laptop of triple screen games” sold by YCX & GPD laptop store.
I would like one of these laptops without expectations, driven only by curiosity to see if it really works.
