straycat19 Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 The Sirius A Windows 10 PC. Forget hulking tower PCs, here's a Windows 10 machine so small you can fit it in your pocket. Despite its phone-like appearance, the Sirius A, made by Dutch hardware firm Ockel, runs a desktop version of Windows 10 and has the ports needed to be hooked up to a monitor, keyboard and network. The mini-PC also includes a six-inch touchscreen, 1080p display for use on the go, 64GB in-built flash storage, a microSD booster slot, 3.5mm audio port and a 3,000mAH battery. But unlike a smartphone, the Sirius A also comes with two USB 3.0, a USB Type-C, HDMI, DisplayPort and Ethernet ports, as well as a 12V power input for when it is used as a desktop. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity are also included. To ensure Windows PC software runs on the device, the Sirius A ships with Windows 10 Home 64-bit as an OS, and packs an Intel Atom quad-core processor with 4GB RAM. Cooling is provided by a heatsink built into the aluminium casing and the Sirius also houses an accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer. Another possible forthcoming feature is called "switch mode", which Ockel says it's working on with Microsoft to allow the device to function as a mouse or keyboard when attached to a display. One downside for those hoping to use the portable device, measuring just 85mm x 150mm, on the go might be the battery life, which last about three hours under casual usage.
