Is it possible to game on a computer that fits into the palm of your hands? The LarkBox is the newest mini PC device from Chuwi. This mini PC comes with an Intel Celeron J4115 processor and an impressive, 6GB of DDR4 RAM.

From a warehouse sized computer to a palm size computer i cannot imagine how far have we gone

[darrenirwin]

This looks like a good solution for low demand office computers, I'm going to give it a go anyway.

[probablyworth]

this literally makes the "is that a pc in your pocket?" joke more realistic

[wzr]

When your PC is a literal brick that can be yeeted at a person.

I love tiny tech, this thing is awesome!

[suspiciousdelicious]

This is a nice concept. I can’t wait to see a better version of this.

This is pretty cool, I had pretty good luck with a Chuwi laptop that I got (currently on loan to a friend's son for at-home schoolwork), so this is a no-brainer for a media PC for the living room! Thanks for the nice review, may not have seen it otherwise.

[SDRIFTERAbdlmounaim]

when your Cmos battery is about 5% of your total pc mass 😂

I was very surprised on how well this PC handled N64 and PS1 games. This would definitely be a living room retrogaming media PC for me.

This is the GameCube mini emulating Dolphin!

[LuisSanchez-ophe]

I’d put this in a home made arcade cabinet, seems perfect for it.

[greenprotag]

Playable gamecube? And it's smaller then a raspberry pi 4 enclosure!?

Finally someone covering the mini-pc's! Comparing them with SBC's i haven't seen any youtuber doing! Great

[codesilver]

for me, i would use it as a emu box in my living room since ps2 runs pretty alright and fine for what i play.

[EirkenElite]

It's the full realization of the ouya

[WildcardZwei]

Hi Taki. This video was cool. I'm glad that we're finally seeing some higher end specs in inexpensive rigs like this. I look forward to seeing successor to this device. In the meantime, there are plenty of other budget alternatives through CFW and homebrew options. Always love seeing new emu tech regardless. And hey, I even helped out the algorithm.

[ChuckDGard]

Damn, looking at the specs, that should be pretty close to the Win 2. Definitely solid for gaming.

Looks cool! Going to pick one up and make a mini GameCube shell for it.
