Kubb Fanless Mini PC Updated with Intel Panther Lake CPU and Premium Pricing

French manufacturer Bleu Jour has updated its Kubb Fanless mini PC with Intel's latest Panther Lake CPU, the Core Ultra X7 358H, paired with an Arc B390 integrated GPU. The fanless design remains, utilizing aluminum chassis fins for passive cooling in a compact 12 × 12 cm footprint, weighing 2.3 kg. The base configuration includes Windows 11 Pro, 16 GB of DDR5-5600 RAM in dual channel, and a 1 TB M.2 NVMe Gen4 SSD, priced at €1,850, which is €355 higher than the previous Core Ultra 5 225H model. Optional upgrades allow up to 64 GB DDR5-6400 RAM for €545.90 extra and a 4 TB SSD for an additional €526, bringing the fully maxed-out configuration to €2,921.90. The mini PC supports a wide range of ports, including Thunderbolt 4, USB 3.2, HDMI 2.1, and dual RJ45. While the high price places it near AMD Ryzen AI-powered mini PCs, its passive cooling and compact form factor appeal to niche users seeking silent operation and small desktop footprints. Enthusiasts may consider DIY fanless builds for cost savings. The update reflects the trend of compact, high-performance mini PCs with premium pricing for advanced components and design.

ODROID-H5 SBC Review – Part 1: Unboxing, Type1 case assembly, and first boot

Hardkernel has sent me a kit with the ODROID-H5 10GbE SBC for review. In addition to the Intel Core i3-300 board itself, the kit also comes with an ODROID-H5 Type-1 case, an M.2 card for a second 10 Gbps Ethernet port, and other accessories. I'll start the review with an unboxing, my experience assembling the kit, and first boot using an M.2 NVMe SSD with Ubuntu 24.04 and Windows 11 in a dual-boot configuration. In a few weeks, I'll continue the review after upgrading to Ubuntu 26.04 and perform thorough testing of all features and performance. ODROID-H5 kit unboxing An advantage of the ODROID family is that it's highly flexible, and you can build your own customized system. For this review, Hardkernel sent me a package with the following items: External LED power button H5 Case Type 1 enclosure ODROID-H5 16GB DDR5 SO-DIMM (Crucial) 15V/4A PSU with US plug adapter

Review of Rikomagic DS08 Android 13 digital signage player

Rikomagic has sent me a sample of their DS08 digital signage player for review. It's based on a Rockchip RK3588 SoC paired with 8GB of RAM and a 128GB eMMC flash, and offers two HDMI 2.1 ports, gigabit Ethernet, WiFi 6, and Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity, as well as several USB ports, optical S/PDIF audio output, and more. I was initially not sure I could receive a sample, as Thailand is pretty strict with licenses for this type of hardware, but Rikomagic told us that it would not be a problem when using DDP (delivered duty paid), and the courier handles all paperwork. And indeed we did receive the parcel without issue. Since Rockchip RK3588 is now a mature platform, we won't run benchmarks in this review, but instead go through an unboxing and a teardown, and focus on digital signage features such as video playback, RTC support, and display orientation
