We all know Xiaomi, being a smartphone manufacturing company mainly, also produces plenty of other products. The list includes TVs, earphones, trimers, bags, shoes, cameras, and more. A new product has just joined the list and it’s a multipurpose foldable fan.
As this is a Xiaomi product, innovation must be there. Among the specialties I already mentioned one earlier, it’s foldable. Despite having a height of 93.5cm, you can convert it into a 14.1cm height cake by folding it. This reduces the space to keep it and makes easier to carry. Folding this fan is not a hard job. You need to only follow three steps instructed by the manufacturer.
This fan comes with a one-piece design. That means you will not find any screw in it. To get the indoor air circulated fully, you can move the head around 120° from left to right. It can also be moved around 360° up and down.
Besides being a fan, it is also a humidifier as well as a purifier. The humidification is done by its bottom part. It can release 1 to 5 nm small water drops with the help of “3000rpm cross-flow wind pressure technology”. This feature is very much helpful to maintain moisture indoor.
Lastly, this fan is wireless. There is a remote to control it from a distance of the utmost 80 meters. The most interesting thing is this remote is magnetically attracted by the fan so that you can’t lose it frequently.
In the CES event this year, we have witnessed a lot of cutting edge technology products. As a participant, Lenovo also displayed their products, mainly ThinkPad Laptops, alongside lots of accessories too. One of those was TrackPoint Keyboard II which is now available for booking.
As this is a new one and the second version of TrackPoint as well some improvements are obviously expected. The authority replaces the entire layout design with the layout of ThinkPad X1. Besides, to improve the connectivity they equipped a better Bluetooth transmitter/receiver.
This keyboard supports only Windows and Android devices. And that is through wireless connectivity i.e. Bluetooth or Bluetooth Transmitter. Though there is also a Type-C port for wired connectivity.
The company says this keyboard can run up to two months against only one full charge. After that, you can charge it up again using the Type-C port.
Lastly, this TrackPoint Keyboard II also has a red round shaped TrackPoint key as the previous model. This button helps to handle a pointer smoothly even without any mouse. Along with it, the 6-point entry support is also there.
As I already mentioned in the title, this new ThinkPad keyboard is now ready to reach you. But you need to spend $99.99 for it and you can order it from here.
