As laptop and smartphone parts increasingly find their way into desktop computers, miniaturized PCs seem to be the way forward - many of which can now be considered palmtops.
Take the Chuwi Larkbox, for example; this thin client PC is as small as a sparrow at 61 x 61 x 43mm and weighs only 127g (excluding the power supply).
Despite its diminutive size, it also comes with a quad-core processor, 6GB of RAM and 128GB eMMC storage.

What makes it really stand out, though, is its $169 (£199) price tag at Amazon - and it’s not even Black Friday. At that price, you'd usually only expect 4GB of RAM, 64GB storage and an Atom CPU (as opposed to the far more powerful Gemini-Lake Intel Celeron J4115 found in the LarkBox).
Even more surprising is the fact that you can upgrade the onboard storage thanks to a free M.2 SSD port. It also has 802.11ac Wi-FI, an HDMI 2.0 port, two full size USB ports, a Type-C power port, Bluetooth 5.1 and a 3.5mm audio jack.
In our review, we expressed some concerns over the storage performance and the fact that the Type-C connector is for power only, not for data (preventing you from using a USB monitor with a Type-C power delivery port). But these concerns are easy to set aside, given the LarkBox's miniscule price tag.
