The 8-inch Falcon laptop is bringing Netbooks back, baby

The Topjoy Falcon is a tiny Windows 10 laptop that looks to be a niche computer for people that want to carry around a full Windows experience in one small package.

The laptop has a 360-degree hinge design so users can fold it to make a thick touchscreen tablet. It also has a tiny keyboard that has a small trackball-type of mouse setup since a trackpad won’t fit on such a compact device.

The computer’s screen has a 1,920 x 1,200-pixel resolution, so it’s quite usable with the resolution set to 150 percent scaling, according to The Verge’s report.

The miniature PC even has a more useful port selection compared to a lot of new laptops that have come out in 2018. It’s packing a USB-C, one USB-A, a headphone jack and a mini HDMI port.

Inside the tiny machine, there’s an Intel Gemini Lake Pentium Silver N5000 CPU, so it’s about as powerful as the Surface Go. Additionally, it comes with 8GB of RAM and either 128GB or 256GB of SSD storage making it have more storage than the Go as well.

So far the company has only released its prototypes that, according to The Verge, have a number of issues. However, the company has promised that it will iron out the kinks by the time its scheduled to hit the market.
