Linda has a 13.3” screen with QHD resolution, 120Hz refresh rate and HDR support, similar to the phone’s own screen. That screen will be used as sort of secondary display/touchpad. But there’s also a full-screen keyboard complete with customizable Razer Chroma backlighting (because nothing says “Razer” like RGB lights).
