SuperBook Turns your Android Smartphone into Laptop

Posted in Android Application, Laptops, and Mobile/Tablet

Introducing the Superbook, a plug-and-play device that turns your Android smartphone into laptop. Just connect your smartphone to any Superbook, and get the same computing experience no matter where you go. Never sync or upgrade your laptop again! Android Smartphone into laptop

A company wants to sell you just the laptop shell, while letting you use your current Android phone and an app to power it. The Superbook is a 11.6-inch laptop shell built by the team behind Andromium OS, the app that allows your Android smartphone to run a desktop-like operating system.

Just download the Andromium app on a device running Android 5.0 or later, connect the device using either a micro-USB or USB-C cord, and the laptop shell will power on. The company says the Superbook supports multitasking and comes with a multi-touch trackpad and a full keyboard. It can also charge your smartphone while in use, and is rated for eight hours of battery life, according to the company.

Key Product Specs

  • Works with all modern Android devices (Type C and Micro-USB compatible)

  • 8+ hours of battery life
  • Charges your smartphone simultaneously
  • Multi-touch trackpad + keyboard
  • Support for millions of Android apps as well as Superbook specific applications

Andromium can run millions of Android apps including Chrome, Gmail, and Microsoft Office, but it’s unclear if the OS is powerful enough to match the expected performance of a desktop machine. No custom firmware to install, no technical knowledge needed, works with any modern Android OS.  Just download the app from Play Store and plug in the Superbook.
