Launched earlier this month as an Indiegogo project, the Odake BladeX is a battery-powered 15.6-inch monitor designed to be taken on-the-go. Its array of ports allows users to connect PCs, Macs, Android phones, gaming consoles, Intel PC sticks, and more to be a jack-of-all-trades display. As of this writing, the project has already passed its initial goal of $20000 USD not four hours after it went live.

Odake plans to launch two main SKUs come November 2019: a 1920 x 1080 FHD touchscreen BladeX model and a 3840 x 2160 4K UHD non-touch BladeX Pro model. Connectivity and chassis features will otherwise be identical between both options. Early bird adopters can pre-purchase the BladeX and BladeX Pro before they launch for $180 and $280, respectively.

The model we have today is a BladeX Pro pre-production unit that should be representative of the final product in terms of performance and impressions. We'll be going over its core features to see if the display can really deliver on all its promises.
