This video features a Chinese YouTuber showcasing a Huawei foldable PC-Tablet 2-in-1 device to several Americans on the street in the US.
The Americans, including one who works at AMD, are visibly impressed and “mind-blown” by the device’s features, as they express disbelief and excitement, stating they have “never seen anything like this.”
Key Features Demonstrated:
-
Foldable Screen: The device unfolds from a standard laptop size to a large 18-inch touch screen tablet.
-
Magnetic Keyboard: A physical keyboard magnetically attaches to the screen, allowing it to function as a conventional laptop. The user also demonstrates how the keyboard can be placed underneath the device for travel.
-
Virtual Keyboard: The device features a virtual keyboard that appears on the screen when the user performs an eight-finger tap gesture.
-
Operating System (OS): The device runs on Harmony OS, Huawei’s proprietary system, because the company is banned from using Windows in the US.
-
Virtual Machine (VM): The device can seamlessly switch to a Windows operating system via a virtual machine with a four-finger swipe, shocking the viewers.
-
Built-in Stand: The tablet mode utilizes a built-in stand for easy viewing.
-
Processor: The device uses Huawei’s own Kirin CPU/NPU, as it cannot use Intel or AMD processors.
-
Price: The YouTuber mentions the price is approximately $3,500 USD, and reiterates that it is only sold in China.
The video primarily serves to highlight the advanced technology and engineering coming from Chinese companies like Huawei, comparing it favorably to products currently available in the US market.
