My big takeaway is I didn't wait long enough when I bought my GPD Win.

Amazing device. Bad battery life. Battery died wayyy before its time too. Eventually took to random crashing.

When I travel for work again, I will be looking at whatever the latest one of these is.



How about a slightly different approach?

I just use a tablet --- supplemented by a compact foldable bluetooth keyboard with touchpad as needed ($30 on Amazon).


I haven't loved getting a shell / IDE running on my Android devices. I refuse to buy iOS, but if I could get some decent dev environment going for .Net Core or python, I'd buy an iPad.

If you have a solution, I'm all ears. Otherwise, the dream of running my full work stack on a mobile device other than a desktop OS remains a pipe dream.


Have you looked at the Lenovo Duet Chrome OS tablet? I have one and it's great. Runs Linux and Android programs quite well, very portable (516 grams/1.14 pounds) an 11 inch screen, and battery life is great since it has an ARM processor. Comes with an attachable keyboard and kickstand in the box too.
