As you know, technology comes with its new and changing avatar every day. If you’re a tech freak and gadget lover, I’m sure you’ve heard of the Android Mini-PC.
The Android mini-pc combines the utilities of the Google Android operating system and the facilities of a PC.
For all those who want to get the best of both worlds mentioned above but don’t know what to look for in an Android mini pc, here is an article that will tell you about all the specifications that your device should have.
Pay attention to these features when buying an Android mini pc to avoid disappointment later:
-
Game Facilities
If you use your device for gaming, you’ll want a machine that gives you a better gaming experience. No? Games featuring the latest first-person shooters on your device will be an enjoyable experience while connecting them to a TV is so uncool.
For your Mini-PC to be a gaming device, it must have a dual-core Android stick to provide a good gaming experience. To make it even better, go for a quad-core device. You should be able to sync your stick with the wireless joystick allowing you to play controller based games with more fun and a more enjoyable experience.
-
Media Connectivity
Min your android pc should be able to be connected to the TV and thus act as a set-top box delivering 1080p like on the quad-core Zealz GK802. With this, you’ll be able to relax on the couch watching videos using the wireless keyboard to control just like you would with a remote.
Now, that would be an awesome feature.
-
Secure Linux Workstation
The ability to run Ubuntu Linux and other versions should be enabled along with a window-like interface that facilitates multitasking in an easy and accessible manner. With this, you will be able to use a number of productivity applications, office suites, image and video editors, stick PCs, etc. This will keep your data safe because the Mini PC is equipped with all operating systems.
-
Video conferencing
Video calling facility is available in almost all Mini PCs, but what about video conferencing? The facility of having a video conferencing while your whole family is sitting beside you is just amazing. You can do this by simply connecting a webcam to your device and then using the video calling software you want to use.
Now, you can find a webcam on your television and make video calls on the big screen. So, your Mini-PC must facilitate video conferencing.
This is one of the features I like the most on MY Android mini-pc.
-
File Servers
A home file server is of the utmost importance as it facilitates sharing of documents with colleagues at the office and with family at home.
With this, you’ll enjoy more flexibility by simply syncing your device with a USB hard drive and an Ethernet dongle.
-
Lower Family PC
Your Android Mini-PC should be able to act as a desktop PC and for this you only need your Android Mini-PC stick while all you need is your keyboard, monitor and mouse.
Android Mini PC will provide access to hundreds of family friendly applications that can be used and played by children and minors.
Conclusion
This is my list of absolute must-have features and specs in an Android mini-pc.
