Today, we can find the BMAX B6 Turbo in stores, a mini PC equipped with the Quad Core Intel Core i5-8257U processor, a chip launched at the end of 2019, which is an eternity in technological terms.
It’s a basic chip, but it may be enough if you’re not looking for a computer to mine Bitcoins, edit 4K video, or play the latest 3D games at a slideshow pace. Otherwise, at least you have the option of easily and relatively inexpensively expanding the RAM and storage.
It’s tiny, measuring just 112 x 125 x 35 mm and weighing 300 grams, so you can take it anywhere. The connectors aren’t anything to write home about either, but at least we have a couple of video outputs.
