Why don't they make Android laptops very much?

I mean, you can make a relatively decent tablet for under $50.
Look at the Dragon Touch. It's a 7 inch tablet, not exactly the best specs but definitely not deadful. You can still do the majority of stuff you'd want to do, just not hardcore things like gaming and such.

Yet, attach a hinge and keyboard to this, and you have maybe a $75 laptop.

I mean, Android these days can do anything you'd want your laptop to do. From web browser, to word processing, to photo editing, to managing your files, to listening to music, to playing video games.

Sure, it's not exactly as good of a desktop experience as a Windows laptop, but the price is really the key factor here.

But think of it. A $75 laptop. Chromebooks got popular for being cheap, yet they were only at least $200 and an Android laptop would do way more than a Chromebook.

Why isn't $75 laptops a thing? We have a ton of poor people in this country. I'm sure they'd love to buy some $75 laptops. Plus, we have a lot of poor countries on this planet. I'm sure they'd love some $75 laptops as well.

Not sure why this isn't a thing.

I mean, it's not like it's never been done. There are some Android laptops out there. But they're not really a thing and usually still loaded with a ton of hardware, making them like $200 (which is still cheap, but not $75).

I'm not saying Android laptops should replace Windows laptops or anything, or Macbooks or anything like that at all. I'm simply saying that they would make the perfect budget laptop.

Yet, no one's jumped on this market opportunity.

@emily

Yes, actually. That is one of the first things they need.
Just because your country is poor doesn't mean everyone's starving in the streets.

Many poor countries throughout Africa can feed their people, they just can't industrialize because they can't afford technology.

But if we can take one of the best technological tools--the computer--and make is even more affordable than it already is, this will help a lot of countries industrialize.

Not all countries have the same resources, so making technology cheaper allows for countries which have low resources to still be able to industrialize.
