Chinese electronics manufacturer Teclast has launched the N30 Pro mini PC in overseas markets, offering a palm-sized desktop computer priced at $400.
The compact desktop is built around Intel's Windcat Lake platform and runs on an Intel Core 3 304 processor. According to the company, the system is designed to provide sufficient processing performance for everyday office tasks and light entertainment.
Graphics processing is handled by an integrated Intel Xe3 chip. However, because the onboard graphics engine features only a single core, the device is not very suitable for gaming, according to the specifications.
Connectivity and external graphics
To give users the option of expanding graphics performance, the mini PC includes a single USB4 port designed to support external graphics cards. Connecting an external GPU enclosure allows the small desktop to handle more demanding visual workloads and creative applications.
The chassis also features an array of physical ports for displays and everyday desktop peripherals. The device includes three USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, two HDMI outputs for running multiple external monitors, one USB 2.0 Type-A port, and a 3.5 mm headphone jack.
Networking is handled by a 2.5 Gbps Ethernet port for high-speed wired connections, alongside built-in Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 for wireless connectivity. The unit also includes Wake-on-LAN functionality, which allows users to turn on the computer remotely over a local area network.
Memory and hardware specifications
Under the hood, the Teclast N30 Pro comes equipped with 12 GB of LPDDR5 RAM and a 512 GB solid-state drive for internal storage. The palm-sized personal computer carries an official retail price of $400 in international markets.
Teclast, based in Guangzhou, China, has long manufactured budget laptops, tablets, and compact desktop computers for consumers worldwide. Small form factor computers have grown increasingly popular as energy-efficient, space-saving alternatives to traditional desktop towers, fitting easily into home offices, classrooms, and commercial display setups.
