The upcoming PC stick turns any HDMI display into a computer.
Archos has revealed its own mobile PC dongle. The Archos PC Stick offers Windows performance in a compact, pocket size.
"Companies have constantly pushed boundaries to make computers smaller, and we've taken this challenge to the next level by offering a matchbox-sized PC for less than $100," says Loic Poirier, CEO of ARCHOS. "Mobility is at the center of our lifestyles and the PC Stick allows us to be on-the-go and productive."
Under the hood, the Archos PC Stick is powered by an Intel Atom Z3735F/Quad-Core 1.33 GHz CPU, an Intel HD Graphic(Gen7)/Dual-Core GPU, 2GB of RAM, and 32GB of storage running Windows 10. Likewise, the device includes Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and USB connectivity along with a microSD slot. Users can plug the dongle into any HDMI display, offering full mobile PC, productivity, and media support, including several pre-installed programs like Word Mobile, Excel Mobile, and PowerPoint Mobile.
The Archos PC Stick will be available in August for a suggested retail price of $99. The dongle now joins a growing collection of mobile HDMI PCs, including models from Lenovo and Intel.
