Xiaomi Youpin has launched a new PC weighing just 250g called the Ningmei Mini Computer ‘CR80’ which can be connected to a monitor, keyboard, and mouse. The mini PC is being touted as a perfect replacement for traditional desktop computers for the non-gamers out there, and meets the functional requirements for less demanding work and entertainment.
The device measures less than 12 cm in
length and width and less than 2.5 cm in thickness. Its weight is only slightly
heavier than the average smartphone at just 250g, meaning it can easily be
carried around in any backpack (via My Drivers). Powering it is the N5105
quad-core, four-thread processor with a turbo frequency of up to 2.9GHz. The
chip is complemented by a 4MB L3 cache and the machine only consumes 10W of
power.
The Xiaomi Ningmei Mini Computer ‘CR80’ is
also equipped with a high-speed M.2 SSD and DDR4 memory. The SSD can also be upgraded
up to 512GB of total capacity. The PC can be connected to TVs, monitors,
projectors, printers, scanners, etc., and can be used for a number of purposes.
For connectivity, you get the Intel AC7265
wireless network card, which supports 2.4G+5G dual-band Wi-Fi connection.
There’s also a Bluetooth module using which you can connect various other
devices too.
The Xiaomi Ningmei Mini PC ‘CR80’ sells in
two variants:
- 6GB RAM + 128GB SSD for 1,099 Yuan (around US$ 172)
- 8GB RAM + 256GB SSD for 1,299 Yuan (around US$ 204)
