YouTuber Builds Handheld Computer That Runs macOS Big Sur [Video]

Posted July 1, 2021 at 3:17pm by
Check out this DIY handheld computer that runs macOS Big Sur, built by YouTuber iketsj.

Is this the world’s first DIY handheld that can run macOS Big Sur? Yes, I know that you can install macOS on UMPCs like on the GPD devices and such, but that's not a DIY handheld. :D
For those who are asking, the keyboard is a Q9 mini wireless keyboard.


Take a look at the video below!
