'One Windows Tablet. Three Modes': This 611g ingenious modular x86 device lets you swap between a keyboard, cooling stand, and tablet without migrating files
Khadas's Mind Go is a modular Windows computer that changes between tablet, laptop, and desktop configurations through detachable accessories and hardware.
Khadas has unveiled the Mind Go, a compact 611g Windows tablet that seamlessly transitions between three modes: tablet, laptop, and desktop. This modular computer offers a detachable 11.6-inch touchscreen display with an impressive 2800 × 2000 resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and 500 nits brightness. The device's thin profile of just 6.1mm makes it incredibly portable, yet it boasts powerful performance and expandable capabilities through its detachable hardware modules.
Equipped with a magnetic keyboard module, the Mind Go transforms into a fully functional laptop. This keyboard adds 79 keys, a trackpad, and a separate 35Wh battery, extending the total battery life from 18Wh to an impressive 53Wh. With this setup, users can enjoy up to 12 hours of video playback, making it an ideal choice for on-the-go entertainment and productivity.
For desktop use, the Mind Go Stand provides active cooling and significantly boosts processor power from 12W to a maximum of 30W. The stand also offers an array of connectivity options, including two HDMI 2.1 ports, two USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 ports, a 2.5Gbps Ethernet connection, two USB-C ports, a headphone socket, built-in speakers, and a USB4 connector. These additional features enable the device to function as a workstation or multimedia hub.
The Mind Go is available in two processor configurations, each offering distinct performance levels and storage options. The base model features the Intel Core Ultra 5 226V processor, 16GB memory, 512GB storage, and Intel Arc 130V graphics. Priced at $1,999 during the super early promotion, it later drops to $2,299 at retail. The higher-end option, the Intel Core Ultra 7 258V processor, comes with 32GB memory, 1TB storage, and Intel Arc 140V graphics, priced at $2,699 initially and $3,099 at retail.
Buyers who opt for both the keyboard and cooling stand with the Core Ultra 5 configuration will pay $2,799 during the super early promotion or $3,099 at retail. The most advanced configuration, combining the Core Ultra 7 processor, 32GB memory, 1TB storage, keyboard, and cooling stand, is available for $3,399 initially or $3,899 at retail.
