Oukitel has unveiled the RG14-P, the world's first rugged solar-powered laptop, designed for industrial workers in harsh environments. The laptop features a 14.1" touchscreen, a solar panel on the back cover, a 3,000mAh main battery, and a 5,200mAh backup battery with 65W fast charging. It comes with Windows 11 pre-installed and includes a durable metal chassis with protective features like rubber pads and covered ports. The solar panel is expected to provide supplementary power to extend the laptop's runtime. This release marks a return to solar-powered laptops, with previous models like the Samsung NC 215S offering limited solar charging capabilities.
