NexDock, designed by Nex, is currently the focus of a campaign on IndieGoGo to bring an order of units to mass production. NexDock employs the idea of a Continuum dock that works with most Windows 10 handsets including the Lumia 950 and 950 XL, Acer Liquid Jade Primo,rumored Alcatel OneTouch Idol Pro 4, and others to extend the touchscreen capabilities of the device.


For an estimated price of $149, users receive a laptop “shell” comprising a 14-inch display, 10,000mAh battery, and Bluetooth keyboard in a single unit.

Plug a phone or tablet running Windows 10 or Android into the NexPad, and you have a more productivity-oriented environment, with the mobile device serving as a secondary screen. (According to NexDock, you could also connect the shell to a Raspberry Pi or something like the Intel Compute Stick, or to an iPhone via a display connector.)

The NexPad doesn’t contain a processor, memory, or storage; all that has to be provided by your small computing device.
