Minix has announced a major expansion of its Mini PC lineup for 2026, shifting the focus toward high-performance AI computing and Wi-Fi 7 integration. The new hardware targets three distinct tiers: professional AI workstations, mainstream commercial systems, and energy-efficient entry-level models.
Extreme AI & Professional Workstations (Launching April 2026)
The flagship models, the Minix ER939-AI Pro and Minix EU736-AI, are built for intensive AI inference and professional data processing. These units feature top-tier networking, including 10 G Ethernet and Wi-Fi 7.
| Feature | Minix ER939-AI Pro | Minix EU736-AI |
| Processor | AMD Ryzen™ AI Max+ 395 (16 C/32 T) | Intel® Core™ Ultra 7 356H (16 C/16 T) |
| AI Performance | Up to 126 TOPS | Up to 180 TOPS (Int8) |
| Memory | 128 GB LPDDR5X-8000 MHz | 64 GB LPDDR5X-8533 MHz |
| Networking | 2×10 G Ethernet, Wi-Fi 7 | 10 G + 2.5G Ethernet, Wi-Fi 7 |
| Expansion/IO | 4×USB-C 4.0, HDMI 2.1 | 2×Thunderbolt 4, Oculink PCIe4.0×4 |
The EU736-AI is notable for its Oculink interface, allowing to connect external GPUs or high-speed storage arrays, while the ER939-AI Pro prioritizes massive onboard memory and dual 10G ports for heavy networking tasks.
Mainstream Commercial & Content Creation (Launching March 2026)
The Minix EU928-AI serves as the primary mid-to-high-end option for business users and creators. It balances high AI compute power with user-serviceable components.
- Processor: Intel® Core™ Ultra 9 285H.
- AI Compute: 99 TOPS (Int8).
- Memory Flexibility: Uses SO-DIMM slots for upgradeable DDR5-5600 MHz RAM.
- Connectivity: Features Thunderbolt 4, dual 2.5 G Ethernet, and Wi-Fi 7.
Lightweight & Energy-Efficient Models (Available Now)
For basic office work, digital signage, and home entertainment, Minix offers three compact models that prioritize a small footprint and low power consumption.
| Feature | Minix NR660 LP | Minix NUC300 | Minix NEO Z95 |
| Processor | AMD Ryzen 5 6600H | Intel® Core™ 3 N300 | Intel® Processor N95 |
| Memory | 16 GB LPDDR5 | 16 GB DDR5 (SO-DIMM) | 16 GB LPDDR5X |
| Max Power | 95 W | 48 W | 36 W |
| Dimensions | 130×127×46.9 mm | 117×111×36 mm | 88×88×42 mm |
| Wireless | Wi-Fi 6E + BT5.2 | Wi-Fi 6 | Wi-Fi 5 + BT5.0 |
The NEO Z95 stands out as the most portable in the lineup, measuring just 88 mm square and drawing only 36 W of power, making it ideal for space-constrained environments.
The Mini PC market is clearly splitting into two directions. On one side, professional-grade machines are adopting features once reserved for premium and niche systems like 10 G networking and Oculink expansion. On the other, entry-level devices are becoming even smaller and more efficient for everyday tasks.
