The Ockel Sirius A is a mini PC that wants to conquer the pockets of users
Table of contents:
When we talk about miniaturization a good example can be that of mobile phones. Yes, many may affirm that, for example, before, a Nokia 8310 was much smaller, but today's phones are almost small pocket computers that accompany us everywhere.
Increasingly smaller and more powerful devices that are not only limited to the world of telephony. This is the case of mini PCs, some _gadgets_ with which we can have our personal computer anywhere and all in a more than reduced size.A computer in little more than the size that a traditional hard drive can occupy.
The evolution of _hardware_ has been fundamental for the takeoff of these devices, a growth that has been supported by the arrival of better adapted operating systems, in the case of Windows 8 and now Windows 10, with the that having a PC anywhere is much easier
Thus, with these ingredients, manufacturers are encouraged to launch products to the market, be they portable consoles, mini PC's or multimedia systems. A large number of options to which a new member has been added, the Ockel Sirius A A mini PC that wants to conquer the pockets of users.
A more than competent mini PC
A rather interesting device, as it is a mini PC that has a 6-inch multi-touch screen with Full HD resolution and mounts inside an Intel Atom X7-Z8750 Quad core 2 processor.6 GHz and a memory of 4 GB of LPDDR3 RAM. The Ockel Sirius A has 64 GB of internal storage shared by the operating system the content that we install. And if it falls short we can use Micro SDXC cards of up to 128 GB or external hard drives and flash drives that we will connect to any of the 2 USB 3.0 ports and a USB Type C port.
To make it work it includes a not very large battery, it must be said, 3000 mAh, with which promises autonomy of up to 4 hoursof video playback. In addition, and although it includes a touch screen, we can connect it to a television or external monitor thanks to the Display Port and HDMI connections.
Among the buts that can be put we could mention the absence of a slot to use a SIM card and in this way to be able to count with permanent connectivity and thus make it a totally independent device."
It is therefore a mini PC with suitable features for not very demanding use such as that of the user who wants to navigate , use office tools or even run a not very demanding game. To do this, it has Windows 10 Home 64 Bits as the operating system.
