With the development of science and technology, technology has completely changed our way of life. The emergence of smart phones has made our life so convenient and fast. I think we all know that the two major systems of mobile phones and tablets are Android and IOS, Many people use Android phones, but have you ever used Android computers? Don't think that I'm talking about Android tablet computers. This is no longer popular. What I want to bring you today is a famous“ The first real Android computer in the world sounds awesome, but dare to describe it as the first in the world. Let's first understand where it is.

I don't know if you have been scared by the latest crowdfunding record. This is a miracle of crowdfunding. After the launch of JD, you can achieve 50% in half an hour, 80% in one hour, and the goal of crowdfunding has been achieved in just two hours. Not only at home, but also abroad, you can also achieve impressive results and break the crowdfunding record of Kickstarter for tens of millions of domestic products. It's really amazing, It is the so-called first true Android PC in the world, the Remix Mini, launched by TechTec. Is it really as attractive, technical and practical as advertised by the manufacturer? Xiao Bian is honored to experience this "world first" product at the first time, Thanks for the trial opportunity provided by TechTec. Let's look forward to the experience of this product.

When I first got this product, I thought that Xiaomi had sent the wrong thing. It was clearly the same as Xiaomi's packaging method. It was also packed in yellow kraft paper, with a strong shell, so that it would not be crushed during transportation. Since its first launch is an overseas version, the entire product is packaged in English. When you get it, the first thing you see is the front of the box "The world's first true Android computer" in English, is it particularly aggressive? In the lower right corner of the box, there is a Remix logo printed on it, which makes you feel that the package is really the same as Xiaomi?

The same phrase is printed on the four sides of the box -“ Remix Mini ”, which is the name of this Android computer, and the back of the box is also the product parameters in English. Through the parameters, we know that this Remix Mini is equipped with a 64 bit four core Cortex-A53 architecture processor, with 2GB of memory 16GB storage is based on the Remix OS 2.0 operating system of Android 5.0 branch. When the storage space is not enough, you can also connect an external SD card to expand the storage capacity. It sounds like a good configuration.

Tear off the round stickers on both sides of the box, gently open the box cover, and a small black object appears in front of us. This is our Remix Mini The main body of the Android minicomputer. After the main body is removed, the lower layer is other accessories.

       Remix mini Of The instruction manual, warranty card and certificate of conformity are all in English. If you can't understand them, it doesn't matter. You can just read the legend on the instruction manual to know how to operate.

Remix mini The accessories of are very simple. There is only one power adapter and one HDMI cable. Like the Remix mini host, they are all designed in black and look neat.

Since Remix Mini also does crowdfunding overseas, the adapters sent to different countries and regions will be different. The adapters sent to China are the versions of the two plugs, which use 5V 2000mA output, The maximum operating power is 15W, The input voltage range is 100-240V, which is basically applicable to the power supply standards of various countries. And we can notice that when users Both sides of the finger grip are designed with grooves, which not only increases stability and recognition rate, It is also convenient for users to plug in and out.

The HD HDMI cable delivered is about 0.5m long. Xiao Bian thinks it is a little short. It is really too short to connect to the TV. Many TVs are hung on the wall, which is really hard to reach. In addition, it should be noted that the Remix mini small computer can only be connected to the small computer and the Monitor. If you use an old-fashioned VGA interface, you need to prepare a adapter cable.  

This is our protagonist today, Remix mini. Our first impression is that it is not a computer at all. It is obviously a small box. Its appearance design is also very similar to the millet box. The semi oval arc design, round at the four corners, black matte design throughout, feels very perfect. The big white brand logo in the middle - "Remix", The black product appearance, matched with the white trademark, feels very stylish. The black and white matching has always been so classic. Don't think that the big "Remix" is just the brand logo. In fact, it is also a function key. Long press can start, shut down and restart. And the size of this product is only 124mm × 88mm × 26mm, It is so small and convenient to wear when going out.

The bottom of the fuselage is again printed with the "Remix Mini" logo, and the white label is affixed with SN barcode, the most valuable thing is Remix Mini There is an oval foot pad at the bottom for anti-skid, which can be used to fix the body when placing, and can avoid scratching the table when sliding.
