    The KiknaBox is more than just a connector; it’s a touchscreen controller, macro pad, and USB-C dock rolled into one.

    This small aluminum unit combines the utility of a USB-C hub with a 2.4-inch touchscreen that boasts 333 PPI. Users can assign macros to the display, letting them tap through shortcuts for creative apps, streaming setups, or even basic system tasks. It’s a clever twist that gives the dock more function than form.

    For video editors, designers, and streamers, the macro support could be especially useful. You can trigger specific commands in tools like Photoshop or OBS without using the keyboard. While compact, this screen acts like a mini control surface for those who prefer custom workflows.

    KiknaBox comes packed with ports and features you’d expect from more expensive hubs:

    • 4K 60Hz HDMI output
    • USB-C PD charging up to 100W
    • Gigabit Ethernet
    • Three USB 3.0 ports
    • SD and microSD card readers
    • Compact aluminum design

    It’s built for single-cable laptop setups, whether you’re at home or on the move.

    The KiknaBox is currently up on Kickstarter for $55 plus shipping, with deliveries promised for December. That price is attractive, but like all crowdfunded hardware, it comes with risk. Some backers could end up waiting longer than expected or not receiving anything at all.

    The KiknaBox blends touchscreen control and practical port selection into one smart package. It’s cheap, compact, and surprisingly clever if the campaign delivers.
