NexDock’s latest lapdock is a full-fledged laptop without a processor

Ever wanted to pair your smartphone’s processing power with a larger screen for a more PC-like multitasking setup? Most recent flagship phones are powerful enough for this, and some β€” like Samsungβ€˜s Galaxy flagships and Googleβ€˜s newer Pixel flagships β€” even include dedicated desktop-style software.

You still need the basics, though: a keyboard, trackpad, ports, speakers, and a battery. That’s where NexDock comes in. The company has been working on lapdocks for nearly a decade, and its latest model, the NexDock 6, is now officially in stock and shipping worldwide. According to the brand, it is designed to work with both smartphones and gaming handhelds.

A much-improved display and trackpad

The biggest upgrade comes in the display. The NexDock 6 features a 14-inch WUXGA (1920 Γ— 1200) touchscreen with a 16:10 aspect ratio. It’s rated for up to 400 nits of brightness, covers 100% of the sRGB color space, and includes a low blue light coating.

The trackpad has also been reworked from the ground up, addressing one of the weaker points of earlier models. According to the company, the new trackpad offers improved responsiveness, better palm rejection, and more reliable multi-finger gesture support across Android desktop modes, Windows, Linux, and SteamOS.

Audio has seen a modest upgrade as well, with dual 2W bottom-firing speakers. Battery capacity is rated at 38Wh, with NexDock claiming around six to seven hours of β€œreal-world use” at medium brightness. The USB-C video port can charge a connected device at up to 5V/2A, up from 5V/1A on the previous generation, meaning your phone can actually gain charge while you’re using it.

The NexDock 6 is priced at $229, with shipping, taxes, and duties included for supported regions. Orders ship from Hong Kong to more than 30 countries, including the US, much of Europe, Asia, and Oceania. NexDock says local US inventory is expected to arrive in early 2026.
