This is Le Slide from Slide and Joy, a product that actually got backed on Kickstarter way back in 2015. They raised $600,000 and while they haven't shipped anything yet, they are clearly still hard at work on their product, and they are clearly getting a lot closer. They're planning to ship in spring of this year. So what is Le Slide? Well, it's a triple monitor solution for your laptop, but unlike Project Valerie, which we saw last year at CES from Razer, this one actually makes an ounce of sense and is similar to what I had suggested at the time that Razers should probably be to be practical. It's a module that actually clips onto the back of your laptop screen, then plugs in with just one cable, and enables you to have either a triple monitor extended desktop or, with their innovative kickstand, a couple of other configurations. Now, they've got two prototypes here this year, a 15-inch and a 17-inch, but they're planning a 13-inch, and the weight for these things, which is one of the big questions for something you're expected to carry around with you, is anywhere from about 1.2 kilograms to 1.9, so it actually won't weigh much more than your laptop on its own. So they've got three different options. Basic is made out of ABS and aluminum with nine color options. Premium is leather, Alcantara, wood or anodized aluminum, and then their limited edition will be available with a real carbon fiber finish or full grain leather. Now, setting up the slide is actually surprisingly easy. You take the four pads and you can put them either directly on the back of your laptop, or if you have a case like with this MacBook demo that we've got here, you can just put them on there. The kickstand can then be adjusted to whatever angle you prefer, and then finally you plug in as few as one cable into your laptop. So if you're using USB Type-C or Type-A, it's just one, but if you're using USB 2, you will probably need two because of the lower power output from USB 2. Now, the kickstand was a real engineering challenge because it had to be flexible enough to be mounted on anything from a very thin to a very thick laptop, or even be left standing by itself when you take your laptop with you. So, it can be left flat then if you just want to take out one of your screens and duplicate your view for the person sitting across from you. This is great for business meetings or consultations, or it can be folded down to help support the additional weight of the extra screens in a multi-monitor single user configuration, or with up to three-way sharing if you've got a group of people that all need to be looking at the same thing. And the last functionality it enables is because it can stand alone, you can actually get any size of the slide and pair it with any size laptop. So you could buy a 15-inch slide with your 13-inch laptop if you want that extra real estate when you're docked, but you just want a smaller device when you're out and about. So the productivity implications are huge, with mobile devices getting more powerful and more functional every year, we're finally getting to the point where the bottleneck really is screen real estate, just like what happened on the desktop 10-15 years ago. So it doesn't take a ton of imagination to think of what you could do extra work-wise, entertainment-wise, with two more 1080p IPS displays. So the final ones are going to be made by LG, they're going to run at 60Hz, but before you get too excited about the 60Hz, it should be noted they're using the USB protocol rather than DisplayPort, so I wouldn't expect to be gaming on them. With that said, if they're successful, who knows what the future will hold. So pricing goes from 350 euro for the basic, all the way up to 850 for the limited edition, and it's going to be a hundred dollars more once they're actually shipping, but for my part, I see this as being a lot more practical than a laptop with built-in multiple displays, because it gives me the option to just take my, you know, nice light mobile device out with me, or pack an epic mobile workstation powerhouse machine thing.
