OK, Now I am Impressed, Also Wish I'd Waited

I bought a tiny micro mini computer from GearBest a few months ago which worked way better than even I expected for a $100.00 tablet mobo in a tiny box. It has great speed and runs anything my big machines do just fine using a TV as a monitor via HDMI.

 

Now they have new Windows 10 units with the Intel Atom Cherry Trail x5-Z8300 for $135.00????

 

OK these are cheap but work fine. And Gearbest I have used with no issues for more than a few purchases like smoking mod kits for my wife so she can smoke inside with no ill effects on the house or me. Anyway it is still caveat emptor, as I have not bought this particular unit . . .yet.

 

Excerpt:

 

"Main Features:
● The processor in this chip is a Intel Atom Cherry Trail x5-Z8300 with a maximum clock speed of up to 1.44GHz. Use the Intel HD Graphic as GPU. Apps have never run so smoothly. Genuine Windows 10 OS will also give you a smooth internet surfing experiance.
● Support 2.4G 5G Dual Band WiFi.
● Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity: Easy pairing with most Bluetooth-enabled devices (computer, mobile phone, keyboard, and others).
● The mini PC has a memory of 2GB DDR3L, with 32GB nand flash, support TF card up to 64GB, easily enjoy games and APKs.
● With USB 2.0 and USb 3.0 interface, we needn't wait for a long time to transfer the data.
● Turbo frequency: 1.84GHz.
● Built-in 300mAh battery

Here is the webpage with a lot of pics and specs. Hey this is portable like mu Voyo micro with its own battery too!

But this one has dual band WiFI and full HD graphics output, and USB 3 which mine does not. I think this one has an awesome design, $135.00 unbelievable.

Heck plug in a wireless keyboard and touchpad like my Logitech K-400 and it will turn any TV or HDMI 1080 monitor into quite a capable workstation streaming solution. These are amazing and I own a similar one and they really work great, snappy and fast for basic and not so basic tasks.

 

On edit this little cylinder shaped one is a bit less in specs but $106.88 with coupon code GBI10: http://www.gearbest.com/tv-box-mini-pc/pp_241114.html?utm_source=mail_api&utm_medium=mail&utm_campaign=special.1216a&email=b2t8ZGVyZWtnb3JlQHN1ZGRlbmxpbmsubmV0fDQ2OTY=
