A tiny PC with big home entertainment ambitions

The Revo One RL85 mini PC that Acer first showcased at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show in Vegas is about to hit store shelves, albeit only in Europe. The RL85, as is apparent from its understated yet elegant design, has been crafted to seamlessly fit into any contemporary living space, of which it requires only about one liter. More importantly, the 6-by-4-by-4-inch PC appears to be no slouch in the specs and the value-for-money departments either.
The RL85, in its most basic £239 (around $355) form, has a 1.4GHz Intel Celeron 2957u processor, 2GB of RAM (up to 8GB), 1TB HDD (up to 6TB), Wi-Fi 802.11 /a/b/g/n, Bluetooth, Ethernet, two USB 2.0 ports, two USB 3.0 ports, HDMI-C, mini DisplayPort and 3.5mm audio input. The company says its super easy to access the PC’s innards, with a pen being more than sufficient to open the latch on its back.
The Celeron variant is the one that will be going on sale early next month, with multiple other models with Haswell and Broadwell Core i processors following later. According to reports, the Core i-based SKUs will be available in either black or white and cost somewhere between £299 (around $445) and £399 (around $595).
