The Kangaroo Portable PC is the world’s smallest portable desktop computer, roughly the size of a smartphone. Powered by a quad-core Intel Atom processor, it runs 64-bit Windows 10, and can connect to a monitor and keyboard, TV or tablet. With a Lightning-to-USB cable, iOS users can dock the PC to an iPhone or iPad, using it as a touchscreen monitor through a free companion app. The mini-PC has 2GB RAM, 32GB internal storage, a fingerprint reader, a built-in rechargeable battery that gives up to 4 hours of casual use, a microUSB port, and an external dock that adds HDMI, USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 ports for desktop use. It also has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.0 wireless connectivity. Price: $99.
There’s a battery inside too, which the company claims, can keep the device ticking for four hours under “casual use”, and the portable PC also bears a Micro-USB port for charging. On the software front, the Kangaroo runs Windows 10. The mini-PC features Wi-Fi 802.11ac and Bluetooth 4.0 wireless connectivity.
For those who haven’t used any of these dirt-cheap small-shaped Windows devices, here’s a word of advice: don’t expect it to handle your high-end chores such as graphics intensive games. You should be able to do web browsing, play casual games, and watch full-HD video files without a lag, however.
