[btarunr]

Xebec, a pioneering name in flexible work products, today announced the launch of the Kickstarter campaign for their latest innovation - the Xebec Snap, the first portable monitors that instantly snap onto your laptop. The Xebec Snap is the ultimate portable workstation that lets you instantly attach additional monitors to your laptop in portrait, landscape, or presentation mode. The Snap is available in Dual-Screen and Tri-Screen options, both featuring 13.3-inch Snap Screen displays with premium all-aluminium housing. The Snap's modular design enables users to perfectly optimize their work setup, allowing even greater flexibility to increase productivity based on the task at hand.

"The Xebec Snap is born out of our relentless pursuit of empowering users to be more productive and creative, no matter where they work," said Alex Levine, Co-founder and CEO of Xebec. "We've listened to our customers' feedback and are excited that the combination of our modular design, larger screens, and Xebec Snap technology creates a product that is truly one of a kind, offering a workspace like never before."



The Snap Screens connect to a single Snap Bracket that attaches to the back of any laptop via the Xebec patented tensioning design, eliminating the need to apply magnets or adhesives to the laptop itself. Users connect the Snap Bracket to their laptop using the integrated USB cables, needing just one cable per screen, no matter what laptop they're using.

This one also seems to be a copy of other similar products available already, most of those have stands so that laptop display hing doesnt have to support additional displays.

*Laptop falls backwards, smashing all 3 screens*


Seems they use displaylink, and it has a very basic stand

MSRP of $999

For 13", 1080p monitors? Would be more cost effective to buy three pairs for office, home, and a pair to keep in the car...

Seen the video in their kickstarter page. The idea is good, the implementation is great.
As already mentioned, the weight of the screens could be a problem, the video probably shows a typical favorable example, but still I think the implementation is great.
The retail prices.....not so much.

Just buy two of these (if you are in the US) for less than $200 not incl. tax.
