  • Incredibly small form factor, Becomes preloaded with Windows 10, Low power consumption, An actual full-fledged PC able to do basic computer tasks, Intel made improvements over the 1st generation Compute Stick
  • 2GB of memory limits it, If looking for a streaming device others are cheaper
  • Compared to the 1st generation Compute Stick Intel has made some great improvements. First you get a better processor, the Intel Atom x5-Z8300. Intel has also added a second USB port, this time a USB 3.0 port. Having a second port is great. This means you...

  • Dual USB Ports, 4K output, Runs Windows 10 on a stick, 802.11ac Wi-Fi
  • Modest performance, Mediocre storage speed, More expensive than competitors
  • The second-generation Intel Compute Stick with "Cherry Trail" Atom processor provides just enough power to be used as a home theater PC, a local server or a portable lightweight desktop. However, the device's main selling point is not its performance, but...
