Star Core Super AI Computer: New Compact Mini PC from Xiaomi in Partnership with Linglong Featuring AMD Strix Halo and Wi-Fi 7 Launches in China via Crowdfunding Campaign.
Xiaomi has announced the launch of a powerful mini PC focused on artificial intelligence (AI) tasks, through a crowdfunding campaign in China. Named Star Core Super AI Computer, the device is not directly produced by Xiaomi, but by the Chinese company Linglong, a partner of the brand.
