A Belgium startup by the name of 'Portabl' is unveiling an innovative new display extender that is designed to make it possible for professionals to go about expanding their screen real estate by making use of a pair of additional screens to go with their core laptop display.
The 'Slide' display extender comprises a pair of 13.-3-inch screens which, as its name suggests, slide out from its frame. The screens can be used in conjunction with a variety of computing platforms including Windows, Android, OSX, macOS and Ubuntu and offers a range of hardware connectivity options such as USB and DisplayLink.
