AyaNeo AM01S Mini-PC: Retro Design Meets Flagship AMD Power
Remember the AyaNeo AM01 mini-PC with its cool, retro design? It's back in a new guise. AyaNeo has just launched a new model, the AM01S. It's packed with some serious punch under the hood. They have kept the retro aesthetics we loved, but stepped up the power and even made that built-in screen much more usable.
Under the Hood: Flagship AMD Power
As far as performance goes, the AM01S does not disappoint. In its top spec, this small machine will be powered by the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370. This is no ordinary chip. We are talking about a 12-core beast with high-end RDNA 3.5 graphics and a dedicated NPU for AI tasks, with 50 TOPS of compute power. For storage and memory, you are covered with two SODIMM slots for DDR5-5600 RAM and two M.2 2280 slots at PCIe 4.0 speeds. To shed all that power in such a small package, AyaNeo used a dual-fan cooling solution, one for the CPU and one for the SSDs.
A Screen That Does More
That little 4-inch screen on the original AM01? It's back, and it's wiser than ever. This foldable touch screen still has the capability to display system information like CPU temperature and fan speeds, as well as handy things like the clock and weather. The surprise is this. AyaNeo has converted it into a full monitor. You can use it as your main display or second monitor to improve your work efficiency or just keep an eye on things while gaming or working.
Connectivity Galore
Despite its tiny size, the AM01S is not skimping on ports. Look at this rundown of connectivity:
- Five USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports
- One USB 2.0 Type-A port
- Two USB 4 Type-C ports
- 2.5 Gbps Ethernet port
- 3.5mm headphone jack
- HDMI 2.0 connector
Pricing and Launch: Still a Secret
AyaNeo has not yet disclosed the price or launch date of this updated AM01S. If you are looking for a mini-PC that is retro cool with serious modern-day performance and a groundbreaking built-in display, this is definitely worth keeping an eye on. Follow AyaNeo's announcements for more details.
