Laptops Arena

Why to connect an external keyboard and an external display to your smartphone when you need to perform complex tasks, when you could have both in a single unit? Celio’s Redfly devices are known as the world’s first smartphone terminals, designed to look and function like laptop computers, but featuring no operating system, no processing unit, and no storage.

The mobile handset accessory is practically an extension to your smartphone which allows you to watch your work on a larger screen and type faster using a larger keyboard, enabling a laptop-like experience.
