This Is Not A Laptop, It’s A KVM Combo
A spare monitor and keyboard are handy things to have around, but they’re a bit of a hassle. They are useful for hardware development, plugging in to headless servers, or firing up a Raspberr…
It really looks like a laptop, but it’s actually a 14″ 1920 x 1280 monitor and USB keyboard in a laptop form factor.
There is also an integrated trackpad, speakers and mic, and a rechargeable battery. That makes it capable of providing its own power, and it can even function as a power bank in a pinch. There’s an HDMI input on one side, and on the other is a full-featured USB-C port that accepts video input via the DisplayPort altmode.

What is the difference between this and the NexDock (https://nexdock.com/) I can use it with an SBC or my Pixel 8 as external display
Honestly, no idea (except I hadn't heard of Nexdock until now lol). Looks like they do the exact same things, but the Nexdock seems to have a slightly bigger internal battery. The only difference I can see is that this appears to be a little less expensive. Not sure what it'll actually sell for, but the "early bird" Kickstarter prices are between $119 and $139 while the Nexdock retails for $299. Beyond that, they seem to have the same features.
You'd think they'd do something differently or make some notable improvements since the product they're kickstarting already exists. My comment has some suggestions, lol. Maybe also including a serial terminal would be nice.
