Toshiba has announced their newest miniature PC called “DE-100 dynaEdge” to the world. It is a fully functional mini-computer powered by a 6th Generation Intel Core processor and running on Windows 10 Pro OS. Weighing a little over 300 grams it is light and small enough to be carried in a pocket without any inconvenience, yet powerful enough and practical like any modern device should be. It comes with an AR headset and naturally, it is fitted with all the basic necessities such as a microphone, touchpad, camera, speakers, GPS, compass, and gyroscope.

The AR interface allows for navigating through images and texts, making audio and video calls, sending and receiving files, interacting with QR codes and much more. The range of applications, however, seems to be focused on industrial environments. This is apparent from its design – which is far from being slick or classy.  

According to Toshiba, the dynaEdge Mobile Mini PC is a “secure collaboration hub that consolidates old peripheral equipment and integrates the latest apps to ensure seamless information sharing”. Toshiba promises that the reliability and durability of their device will be unparalleled. Every dynaEdge mini PC is built to withstand extreme temperatures, vibration, shock, humidity, high altitudes, drops, dust and solar radiation.

The price tag for the device currently stands at $1899 but seeing as it is meant to serve mainly business clients it should find its share of the market easily. For the average user wanting to play around with it, the price is indeed steep, although there will be tech enthusiasts willing to add Toshiba’s dynaEdge to their collections who will surely be able to lay their hands on it despite the price. The device is expected to hit the shelves in the second quarter of 2018.
