As laptops have become thinner and lighter, there have been sacrifices along the way. Often, those sacrifices come in the area of port selection, as ultra-portable laptops keep getting bolder about omitting things like USB-A ports, 3.5 mm jacks, and SD card readers for the sake of portability and style. Whether you think that's inconvenient or incredible, take a look at the Craob X laptop. It takes minimalism to a new level—it has zero integrated ports.

Spotted by My Laptop Guide on Monday, the Craob X claims to be the "world's first port-less ultrabook." Craob's website provides limited information about the Craob X laptop and nothing about the company itself. There's no release date beyond a vague "coming soon" advertisement.

While even the trimmest ultraportable will typically offer at least a USB-C port, the Craob X's deck is empty. And we can see why—there's barely room to fit anything there.
