Still, it’s an intriguing concept that follows Apple’s rumored portless iPhone. The Craob X is equipped with a 13.3-inch 4K UHD (3,840 x 2,160) display that’s packed on a chassis that weighs 1.9 pounds and measures 7 millimeters in thickness. To put that into perspective, the portable MacBook Air weighs 2.8 pounds and is 15mm thick. As for what’s under the hood, expect up to a 12th Gen Intel Core i7-1280P CPU, Intel Iris Xe graphics, up to 32GB of LPDDR5 RAM, 2TB PCIe 4.0 x4 SSD, and Wi-Fi 6E connectivity. As for the wireless charger and hub hybrid, it magnetically attaches to the back of the laptop (apparently on the lid) to charge the device, and sports a USB-C and USB-A port, Thunderbolt, an SD card slot and a headphone jack. Craob doesn’t state what kind of Thunderbolt port, but we’re going to presume it’s the latest Thunderbolt 4 connectivity. There’s even a hole-punch webcam. Concept devices pop up every now and again, some making it further along in the development process such as Expanscape’s seven-screen Aurora 7 laptop and Alienware’s Concept UFO. More often than not, however, they don’t end up hitting the market. Judging by Craob’s lack of visible or tangible history, its portless laptop may never see the light of day.
