Sometime in November last year, we wrote about two fanless mini PCs that were introduced by T-chip Technology’s Firefly: the Station P1 and M1 geek computers, powered by the Rockchip RK3399 hexa-core and RK3328 quad-core processors respectively.
We are back now to talk about a similarly powerful open-spec mini PC called Station P2, which is a bit bigger than the Station P1 but styled the same way with toothed aluminum alloy in matte black.
The new Station P2 feels so much like a standard x86 based mini PC, thanks to the kind of features that it comes with. The mini PC is based on a quad -A55 Rockchip RK3568 processor clocked at 2.0GHz. The RK3568 features a 2x core Mali-G52 EE GPU and a VPU with support for 4Kp60 decode and 1080p60 encode, as well as an 8MP ISP with HDR support and an up to 800MHz, 0.8-TOPS NPU for RK NN acceleration. Other features of the mini-computer include 64GB eMMC, support for up to 8GB LPDDR4, WiFi 6, 2x GbE with PoE+, 4x USB, HDMI, SATA, and M.2.
Software support for the mini PC includes Firefly’s own Android-based Station OS plus Android 11.0, Ubuntu 18.04, and Linux+Qt. The Station OS offers a variety of applications plus seamless switching between desktop and media modes.
