Customizable Consumer Laptops

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The 'Pi-Top' Modular Laptops are Inexpensively Priced

— October 13, 2017 — Tech
Customization is key when it comes to technology these days, which is something that the 'Pi-Top' modular laptops put front and center for consumers to take advantage of. The 'Pi-Top' comes in several options to suit different needs and can come with or without a Raspberry Pi unit; this makes it appealing to advanced users who already have the technology in their ownership.

The 'Pi-Top' modular laptops have a full-size QWERTY keyboard and a full HD 14 inch display along with a battery pack that will offer eight hours of usage on a single charge. The 'Pi-Top' units can be interchanged and switched up to suite different needs and identify the growing number of makers who are looking to make their own customized gear rather than purchase it readymade.
Trend Themes
1. Customizable Laptops - The trend towards customization in technology opens up opportunities for modular and interchangeable hardware, giving companies the chance to tap into the DIY market.
2. Modular Technology - Modular technology, like the Pi-Top laptops, allows users to upgrade and interchange parts, providing the chance for companies to harness a market of consumers looking to tailor their own devices.
3. DIY Devices - The growing trend towards making one's own devices presents an opportunity for companies to offer customizable and buildable technology, catering to consumers who want to bring their own unique ideas to life.
Industry Implications
1. Personal Computing - The personal computing industry can benefit from the trend towards customizable and DIY devices, as it presents an opportunity to tap into a new market of tech-savvy consumers who are looking for more flexibility.
2. Technology Retail - Retailers in the technology industry can benefit from offering modular and customizable devices as their customers look for solutions that can be tailored to their unique needs.
3. Maker Community - The maker community presents an opportunity for companies to create tailored products that can be built, modified and upgraded — either providing individuals with needed tools and materials, or widening the array of uses available for courses and classrooms by offering personalized solutions for creation.
