With too many hardware devices competing for your money, this new hardware concept called Wooga may be compelling enough for enterprise users and consumers. The hardware includes a holder for your smartphone, which will turn your phone into the overall “screen” for the two different uses–as a portable gaming system or as a smartbook. As a smartbook, the clamshell design will allow you to use your smartphone as the screen, and the device will use the smartphone’s OS, processing power, and apps from the phone. There concept hardware also has a built-in physical keyboard for comfortable touch typing.

This will present itself as a comfortable, nice solution from having to carry a smartphone and a smartbook, which is essentially a netbook that uses a smartphone operating system, like Windows Mobile or Android. This way, all your information is contained in one source and you don’t need to worry about synchronizing between different machines and devices.

The device also has gaming controls at the top half where you dock your smartphone. This top screen portion can be rotated around and fold flat to conceal the keyboard for a smaller form factor when using it for game play.
