Morefine M600: AMD Phoenix refresh arrives for mini-PC with Ryzen 7 7840HS and Ryzen 9 7940HS options

In March, we reviewed the Morefine M600, a Ryzen 9 6900HX-powered mini-PC that the company announced a few months prior. While the original model is a little over six months old, Morefine has sought to issue a refresh based on newer Phoenix APUs. Specifically, the Morefine M600 is now available with the Ryzen 7 7840HS or Ryzen 9 7940HS, as is the Topton M600.

Theoretically, the move to Ryzen 7040HS series processors should provide CPU and GPU performance improvements thanks to Zen 4 CPU cores and RDNA 3-based iGPUs. For example, the Ryzen 9 7940HS outperforms the Ryzen 9 6900HX by 17% in CPU-heavy tasks. Performance differences between the Radeon 680M and newer Radeon 780M in the Ryzen 7 7840HS and Ryzen 9 7940HS are more limited though, and often game or workflow dependent.

The new Morefine M600 starts at US$517.25 as a barebones unit with a Ryzen 7 7840HS. In comparison, Ryzen 9 7940HS SKUs start at less than US$100 more than their Ryzen 7 7840HS counterparts, with a US$602.05 price quoted on AliExpress. At the time of writing, both APU variants can be configured with seven memory configurations ranging from 16 GB to 64 GB of RAM and 500 GB to 4 TB of PCIe 4.0 storage. For reference, Topton sells its equivalent mini-PC for similar but slightly higher pricing than Morefine.
