We like the small things. And if a complete computer hidden in the body of a USB memory, even more. It is the proposal submitted by Lenovo with IdeaCentre Stick 300. This equipment allows us to connect to any monitor or TV with HDMI input and enjoys the Windows 8.1 operating system. In its core we find a processor Intel Atom quad-core, internal memory of 32 GB eMMC format and a USB port to connect a device such as a mouse, a keyboard or an external hard drive to expand the space available. The Lenovo IdeaCentre Stick 300 will be available first in the United States during the month of July, and its price once landing in Europe can be placed around 130 euros. We tell you the main details.
Today mobility is becoming stronger. Both home users and companies demand solutions that can be taken anywhere and are easy to install. A premise that perfectly fulfills the Lenovo IdeaCentre Stick 300. With a pen drive format, this accessory has a thickness of only 1.5 centimeters but hidden inside a mini computer with Windows 8.1. In addition, users that are committed to this model can benefit from the free upgrade to Windows 10, a platform to hit the market late next month and promises much (finally the coveted start menu is retrieved).
To work, the Lenovo IdeaCentre Stick 300 uses an Intel Atom Z3735 processor. This chip has four cores and a power of 1.33 GHz per core. A rate which can be up to 1.83 GHz at times of greatest need. In addition, it combined with a RAM of 2 GB to create a pretty decent set. It is not a powerful computer, but offer good performance for common tasks such as browsing or using simple applications. As to its internal memory totals 32GB eMMC format. This point may be shorter if (more than half of the available space is taken by the operating system itself). A limitation can be overcome through a MicroSD memory card (includes a slot for these cards). It may also be advisable to use an online storage system or an external hard drive.
For this third option a USB 2.0 port, a connection that can give us a lot of play when the disc include a mouse or keyboard is included. Of course, to achieve full functionality is best to use a keyboard and a wireless mouse that leverage Bluetooth 4.0 connection. When connected to the network, the Lenovo IdeaCentre Stick 300 includes WiFi connectivity. This team will reach the US market from next July, and is expected after the jumps to other countries come to our country. Its price in our land could be placed in the 130 euros.
