eGPU

A graphics dock, also known as an eGPU (External Graphics Processing Unit), is an external device, mainly used to enhance the graphics processing capabilities of a laptop. Traditional laptops are often not equipped with high-performance discrete graphics cards due to size and heat dissipation limitations. A graphics dock provides an external solution that enables laptops to use high-performance desktop-level discrete graphics cards, thereby greatly improving graphics processing performance.

Connecting to a laptop via a high-speed data cable, the graphics processing tasks of the graphics card are transferred from the laptop’s integrated graphics card to an external discrete graphics card. The benefits are:

Improving graphics processing performance, allowing the laptop to run demanding 3D games, graphics rendering, video editing and other applications.
Keeping the laptop thin and portable, there is no need to sacrifice mobility for high performance.
The graphics card can be upgraded. When stronger performance is needed, just replace the graphics card in the graphics dock.

External SSD

An external solid-state drive, also often called a mobile hard drive, is a portable storage device that is independent of the computer host. It is mainly used to expand storage space, back up important data, and quickly transfer large files between different devices.

Portability

External hard drives are compact in design and usually equipped with a protective shell, which makes them easy to carry and use in the office, at home, or on the go.

Interface diversity

Common connection interfaces include USB (USB 2.0, USB 3.0, USB-C), Thunderbolt, eSATA, etc. Among them, USB is the most common because of its good compatibility, while Thunderbolt provides faster data transfer speeds.

Storage capacity

External SSD can provide storage space from hundreds of GB to several TB to meet users’ needs for large-capacity storage.

Data security and reliability

Many external hard drives have built-in shockproof mechanisms that automatically protect the hard drive when it encounters impact or falls, reducing the risk of data loss. In addition, the use of advanced materials such as silicon oxide disks enhances the physical durability and data integrity of the hard drive.

Plug and play

Most external hard drives support the plug and play function, which means they can be used immediately after being connected to the laptop without installing drivers, which is very convenient.

Lightweight and portable

Portable screens are usually thin and light in design, light in weight and small in size, making them easy for users to carry around.

Multi-interface compatibility

Supports multiple connection methods, such as HDMI, USB-C, VGA, etc., and is compatible with a variety of devices such as laptops, tablets, and smartphones.

Plug and Play

Most portable screens are designed to be plug-and-play and can be used quickly without complicated settings.

High-resolution display

Many portable screens offer high resolution, such as full HD (1080p) or even 4K, ensuring a clear and delicate visual experience.

Multi-scenario application

Applicable to a variety of scenarios such as business office, gaming entertainment, and outdoor display.

Laptop Screen Extender

Laptop screen extender is a way to improve work efficiency and enhance the visual experience, allowing users to get a larger work area by connecting one or more external displays to the laptop.

Increase work area

The extended screen greatly expands the available screen space, allowing users to switch freely between multiple windows or applications without frequently minimizing or hiding windows. This is very beneficial for users who need to view and operate multiple documents, reports, design drafts or code editors at the same time, such as programmers, designers, video editors and financial analysts.

Improve work efficiency

More screen space means that information can be compared side by side, speeding up the decision-making process and reducing the time wasted switching between different windows. For multitasking scenarios, this means that work can be completed faster and the overall workflow efficiency can be improved.

Enhance entertainment experience

In terms of entertainment, the extended screen allows users to watch movies or play games in full screen on one screen while chatting, browsing social media or looking up information on another screen, achieving a perfect combination of entertainment and interaction.

Improve concentration

By assigning different types of tasks to different screens, the clutter of the workspace can be reduced, helping users focus on a single task, thereby improving concentration and reducing errors.

Improve visual quality

External monitors usually have higher resolution and better color performance, which can significantly improve the quality of work results for tasks that require high image quality, such as image processing and video editing.
