MK802: Pennine-new PC with Android from $ 74

Just a few days ago we told you about Cotton Candy , a PC with Android in the size of a little key enclosed USB, and now here to peep his dangerous rival, which attacks the "market" with a very competitive price of only $ 74.

 

MK802 is a name much less empathetic of Cotton Candy, but if you overcome this slight initial impasse will end up in your hands (it really must be said) a very promising subject, which incidentally is already on sale now  (as opposed to rival who has been postponed to July), although it is not clear who makes it.

8.89 long, 1.27 wide and often only 3.5 cm the MK802 certainly not going to raise the lift biceps, although this does not mean that its interior is devoid of "muscles":

• CPU single-core A10 Allwinner based on ARM Cortex A8 1.5 GHz
• 512 MB of RAM
• 4 GB of internal memory expandable via microSD
• USB host (for connect keyboard and mouse maybe)
• microUSB
• HDMI
• Wi-Fi  802.11b / g
• Android 4.0 preinstalled, but also compatible with other OS like Ubuntu 

Pity about the lack of some kind of remote control, but at this price is also difficult to get to demand anything.

If you are interested, therefore, the MK802 is available now to order directly from China , complete with free shipping .  Source: Visit
