The new box continues the distro’s long-standing partnership, which began with the release of the original Msecore PC back in 2012. That was followed the year after by the more powerful Msecore, a device which sold out in Europe on its Amazon debut last year.
Has it got what it takes to beat the super tiny $388.99 Intel Compute PC running Windows 10? Let’s take a look.i5-4200u 4g ram 128g ssd Mini PC
Msecore Mini Design
The Msecore Mini is five times smaller than the original Msecore and is barely an inch tall. Like previous editions, the new model is fanless, with the case design working as a passive cooling system.
If there’s a criticism to be levelled at the device it’s the utilitarian design. Previous Msecore models had a very distinctive look. The mini looks like an ADSL router wearing an aluminium shed.
Not that appearance matters too much in a device this tiny, but even so.
Msecore Mini Specs
The success of Chromeboxes has proven that big things really can come in very small packages. The Msecore Mini is no exception, offering twice the performance of the Msecore in a device able to slip into a pocket.
Inside it touts:
Intel i5 4200u CPU (Dual Core Turbo Boost 1.6GHz 3M Cache)
4GB RAM
128GB SSD
Ports and extensibility are well catered for. The device offers two USB 2.0 ports, four USB 3.0 ports, a pair of HDMI out sockets for dual-monitor setups, headphone/mic jack and a MicroSD card reader for expanding storage.
Connectivity includes integrated 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi and ethernet. There’s no mention of Bluetooth.
