Elecrow, a brand well known for STEM gadgets, has come up with a new product called CrowPi2.

With CrowPi2, you will get all the benefits of the Raspberry Pi in a compact laptop. It has many exciting features, such as a removable keyboard and an 11.6-inch screen with an HD display. It allows for the digital world exploration, which is easier with the inbuilt tutorial.
Besides education, you can use it for entertainment to stream movies or play games with the kids. I love the outdoor charging capabilities, which makes it portable. You also can purchase the CrowPi2 laptop without a Raspberry if you wish to add your own.
