The Outernet Experience is Tech for People Who Hate Tech.
The setup allows you to live the lifestyle of the most advanced tech user and partake in the modern world – without using tech and giving up on ye olde times. The two screens can be used independently, individually or in a group. The Outernet Experience supports communicating, conducting online business, education and upskilling, entertainment like watching videos or playing games.
