Pocket Reform looks like this, with a full HD (1920 x 1080 310 ppi) 7-inch display, a keyboard and a 10mm trackball. The overall size is 20 x 12.6 x 4.5 cm, and the weight is 'undecided'. It is equipped with an eMMC of up to 128GB, two USB Type-C ports, a MicroSD card slot, and an NVMe SSD slot of up to 2TB.
The battery is 8000mAh and supports USB PD. In addition to being able to output up to 4K video from the Micro HDMI port, it also supports 802.11ac (Wi-Fi 5) and Bluetooth 5.0, making wireless connection perfect. In addition, a WWAN slot for 4G / 5G / LTE modems and a microSIM card slot can be added as an option. It also has a DAC with monaural speakers and a MEMS microphone with a hardware switch.
In addition, the hardware is open source and can be freely customized and repaired. In addition to Linux distributions such as Debian, Arch Linux, Ubuntu, and Void, the OS is compatible with OSs such as Plan 9 (9front), Genode, and OpenBSD, and desktop environments such as Sway, GNOME, and KDE Plasma can be used.
Pocket Reform acts as an intermediate between notebook PCs and smartphones, and is ideal for use in travel destinations, outings, and warehouses where it is difficult to carry ordinary notebook PCs. Pocket Reform will soon be in early beta, with the latest updates in our newsletter.
