Razer Linda was a prototype #lapdock showcased 7 years ago at CES.
A laptop-shaped shell that had a slot for phone instead of a touchpad.
A concept that I would really like to try out.
Project seems to have been abandoned, and there was no successor.
All right, then question is, how to make it by yourself?
Are there any projects that provide schematics or components for building this kind of thing?
If not, is anyone willing to help me brainstorm possible ways of crafting this?

@frameworkcomputer
Make a #lapdock with a hole for phone instead of a touchpad.
Like Razer Linda was meant to be.
Use the existing Framework case, screen and other components.
But no need for expensive processor and other electronics, as phone will provide all of that.
Android is about to get improved desktop mode soon, so there will be more interest for lapdocks.

December has so far felt packed with little delights on the fediverse.

Emma Newman has released the first of this year’s Tea and Sanctuary advent episodes. The podcast is wonderfully comforting.

I’m finally getting to read one of her novels, Planetfall, today and so far it has me drawn in.

I’ve started playing Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp Complete. The social aspects of the old game have been retired, by you can scan my villager’s QR code if you’d like him to stop by your camp. Share yours with me too if you want!I’ve been enjoying revisiting the game and it’s cozy chores.

Yesterday I recieved a new, cheap lapdock I ordered last week. It’s Dopesplay’s lower end lapdock and was $130 CAD.

I’ve wanted to be able to use my phone as the only computer i carry around or use at home for a long time and recent Android updates make that not only possible but actually enjoyable.

I’m happy with the lapdock so far and look forward to putting it to more use soon.

I was pleased to confirm a single USB C cable allows the lapdock to work with a Switch. It’s exactly what I hoped it would be.

Monolith Soft shared images of Xenoblade Chronicles scripts bound and stacked in huge piles. What a delight it would be to read through them!

Acabo de descubrir la existencia de los #lapdocks y tengo claro que tenemos que quitarnos la idea de que los #smartphones son teléfonos y empezar a considerarlos computadoras de bolsillo, con todo lo que eso conlleva.

Para quien no lo sepa: si tu smartphone tiene puerto USB-C con salida de vídeo DisplayPort (DP Alt Mode), puedes conectarlo a uno de estos cacharros con forma de laptop y utilizarlo como si fuera una computadora de escritorio.

Ahora sí que tengo ganas de que #Android lance oficialmente su #DesktopMode. Los Android de Samsung, Motorola y otras distribuciones Linux ya cuentan con su propias adaptaciones de este sistema, pero estaría genial que fuese algo más normalizado.

Crowdfunding: CrowView Note 14 laptop dock turns a Raspberry Pi 5 into a notebook (also works with NVIDIA Jetson Nano, phones, and other devices)

Laptop docks have been around for more than a decade, with most marketed as ways to use a smartphone as a pseudo-laptop by interacting with your mobile apps on a bigger screen and a full-sized keyboard.
But you can also use these smartphone-to-laptop docks with other devices. Plug a single-board computer like a Raspberry Pi into a laptop dock […]

I recently bought myself an old 2018 Intel Mac Mini to use with my lap-dock setup in my bedroom.

I was hoping to set up a dual boot with macOS and Linux (Fedora); unfortunately, the WiFi drivers don't work out of the box...

I tried to install the broadcom-wl driver but instead of fixing the WiFi, it also broke the Ethernet connection as well...

Kind of bummed the WiFi doesn't work out of the box, everything else about it works great with Linux!

I guess I can always try again, once Apple no longer offers the latest version of macOS for this Mac Mini

Can anyone recommend a lapdock?

I want a machine to use with a Linux phone, steam deck, Samsung Dex and to manage a server.

Review of available lapdocks suggest they all have hardware flaws. This is an area where @PINE64 or @frameworkcomputer could make a difference.

Now that my phone is on #Android13 I decided to give desktop mode another shot on my #NexDock #LapDock

...HOW IS THIS EVEN WORSE?!?!

God Lapdocks are the stupidest thing ever created. Unless you have a stock Samsung, they are useless

I would find a #lapdock pretty darn useful for a few of my hobby projects, but the *prices* on them are downright... institutional.

I've been given a review unit of something that I didn't expect would turn out to be one of my most useful :steamdeck: Steam Deck accessories right now. Despite some flaws, I'm genuinely impressed. 👀

Found a new tool on Amazon for helping managing headless systems: ”#Dopesplay Portable #Lapdock”. Not the cheapest at CAD$415 but includes an HDMI monitor, USB-C keyboard/trackpad and battery in a laptop-like case. Plug in the HDMI and the USB to the headless system (I tried PCs, Macs, NAS) and you have a working portable #KVM . It's not perfect -- no VGA support for the older servers, but so much better than dragging a crashcart around with monitor and then trying to find a power source.
