iconBIT Toucan SX Android Mini PC Review

Others/Miscelleneous by stefan @ 2012-12-05

The Toucan SX is a small and cute Media Center based on Android ICS, which features enough USB ports for fitting different storage devices and/or peripherals, is powered by a single core ARM CPU at 1GHz and on it we can install thousands of apps from the Google Play Store. The internal memory for applications is quite small (512MB), but if we migrate the installed apps onto a separate microSD card, most of the "Insufficient memory" issues will be gone.

Test Results

To test out the performances of the mini-PC, we have installed some freeware benchmark applications from the Google Play Store in the internal memory (did not transfer them to the Sdcard). Afterwards, the applications were ran one-by-one, and we recorded the final results; the obtained scores were also compared with the dual-core Samsung Galaxy S2 mobile phone, to see the performance differences.

Will see what I can do since I have very limited internal space (this is quite a big apk) and would need to migrate the app after installation.
