Chuwi LarkBox 2.4 inch mini PC review
The Chuwi LarkBox is a tiny computer that measures just 2.4″ x 2.4″ x 1.7″ but which is a full-fledged PC capable of running Windows 10 or other desktop operating systems.

GPD Win Max mini gaming laptop preview
The GPD Win Max is probably the most powerful handheld gaming computer to date. That’s an easy claim to make, because it’s not like there have been that many handheld gaming PCs in the past, and most of the ones that do exist were also made by GPD. But the GPD Win Max is far more […]
Dell XPS 13 9300 review (13.4 inch thin and light laptop with Intel Ice Lake)
The Dell XPS 13 has been setting the standard for thin and light laptops for years — and the 2020 model is the smallest to date, measuring just 11.6″ x 7.8″ x 0.6″ and weighing just 2.64 pounds. Dell accomplished that by shrinking the bezel below the display to give the laptop a 91.5 percent […]
Intel Frost Canyon NUC 10 review (with Intel Core i7-10710U Comet Lake)
Intel’s NUC computers are tiny desktop PCs that typically have laptop-class processors. But the thing about laptop processors is that some of them have gotten pretty good in recent years, offering desktop-class performance in some situations. For the past few weeks I’ve been using a new Intel NUC 10 mini PC with a Core i7-10710U […]
I replaced my Fitbit with a $35 Mi Band (mini-review)
Earlier this month I decided to replace my aging (and wonky) Fitbit One activity tracker with a Mi Band 4. I picked one up from Amazon for less than $35, but they’re also available from other retailers including Walmart and Newegg. I spent less on a brand new Mi Band 4 than I had on a […]
Magic Ben MAG1 8.9 inch mini laptop review
It’s tricky to make a great mini-laptop. Want a super-small screen and a device that’s compact enough to fold up and put in your pocket? The you probably aren’t going to get a great keyboard. Need a keyboard that’s comfortable for touch-typing? Then you’ll likely get a larger display… and still not have room for […]
Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 review (Ice Lake convertible laptop)
Dell’s XPS 13 line of laptops have set the standard in recent years for just how thin and light a notebook can be while still offering decent performance and long battery life. But the Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 line of convertibles, which should be more versatile than their clamshell siblings, have been hampered by low […]
Chuwi MiniBook 8 inch mini-laptop preview
The Chuwi MiniBook is a convertible mini-laptop with an 8 inch touchscreen display and a 360 degree hinge, a backlit keyboard, and a fingerprint sensor. It’s the first mini-laptop from Chuwi, a Chinese company that’s been selling cheap tablets, notebooks, and compact desktop computers for a few years. The folks at Chuwi sent me a […]
One Mix 1S mini laptop review (7 inch convertible with Celeron 3965Y)
It’s been just over a year since One Netbook released their first compact computer, a 7 inch mini-laptop called the One Mix Yoga. Since then the company has released several other models including some with beefier specs and/or bigger screens and keyboards. Now One Netbook is going back to basics with the One Mix 1S Yoga. It’s […]
