There is some really nice pieces of technology out there today which are simple and effective and again Cost Effective.. While costs are coming down with smartphones with high end devices coming in cheaper with new OEMs and so on.There is however tech inventions that we see on the likes of kickstarter that are pointless and clearly not thought out but this one here is different,BUT some might say “hey buy a chromebook” but there is no need too at all and for 99 bucks its just great..

The Superbook is a shell that turns your Android smartphone into a complete laptop. Get the freedom of using just one computer.

This idea is a simple yet effective one which is cheap and future-proofed,You can make calls,play games,browse,email,edit and create documents and code and good battery-life to boot…

Your smartphone is an incredibly powerful computer.

You already do a lot on your smartphone: it’s convenient, portable, and holds all of your apps, files, and contacts.

In fact, you could accomplish a lot more with it, but are often held back by its small screen size and limited mobile interface.

That’s why we created the Superbook – to remove those restrictions and give you the freedom of using just one computer.

What is the Superbook?

At its core, the Superbook is a smart laptop shell that provides a large screen, keyboard and multi-touch trackpad, 8+ hours of battery, and phone charging capabilities.

When plugged into your Android smartphone, it launches our app to deliver the full laptop experience.

Think of it as the ultimate accessory for your smartphone.

This is so simple to use,you just need your Android smartphone and an app plug in and off you go…

Like this idea?? Head to Kickstarter you dont have much time left.

The Hyperloop is the futuristic travel transportation idea which Elon Musk and Space X came up with to basically shorten travel time,for those who travel long distances yes its an ideal option but we are some time away from it being a reality. But now you can take a look inside the idea in Virtual Reality..

The app now on Android on iOS and free gives you a tour of the pods and a drive inside the transportation system but I felt the ride was a little boring in the app you are going in a straight line but nonetheless its worth a look especially the technical aspects in it.The app gives you a virtual ride from Amsterdam to Paris which would take normally 3 hours to complete but with Hyperloop thats slashed to just 30 minutes..

Sit inside the Delft Hyperloop pod
·         Use the pointer dot to activate different experiences
·         Travel from Amsterdam to Paris at speeds of up to 1200km/h
·         Explore the technology of the pod through exploded views
·         Dive into the levitation, braking and stabilization systems
·         Compare the Hyperloop to plane and train travel

You do not need any controller here but as I always recommend I suggest you use headphones it makes the experience much better in most apps on VR.
