There's a Mini PC hiding inside this miniature Tesla Cybertruck
If you are a fan of the Tesla Cybertruck, then Xyber's XPC Mini PC is right up your alley. The Hong Kong-based company has taken an interesting approach for its mini computer. Rather than a boring cube or cuboid, Xyber has chosen to house the components of its Mini PC inside a miniature Cybertruck.

A detailed look at the Xyber XPC in the form of a YouTube video posted by Taki Udon is available on the manufacturer's Indiegogo page. The video reveals the Xyber XPC is not just housed in a miniature Tesla Cybertruck but a replica with working doors, rolling wheels, and even lights that turn on when the PC is powered on. Talking about power, the PC is powered on by pressing down on the front of the truck as its power button is built into the front shocks.
In addition,there are a handful of ports hidden behind a flap below the tailgate. The ports include a DC jack, a USB 3.1 Type-A port, an HDMI 2.1 port, two USB 3.1 Type-C ports, and an audio jack. There is a second USB-A port under the truck. Interestingly, an image on the Indiegogo page says the Type-C ports are USB 3.2 Gen 2.
The video also shows a teardown of the Mini PC and it reveals it has a 1TB M.2 2280 SSD. There's also an AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS under the hood along with 32GB of DDR5 5600 RAM, although it will also be available with up to 64GB of RAM and 4TB of storage. There's Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2, too.
Xyber is yet to reveal how much the Cybertruck-styled XPC Mini PC will cost but it is offering those who sign up a 10% discount off the super early bird price. There is also no info on availability. If you don't care about the Cybertruck design, then there's the Geekom A8 Mini PC which also has a Ryzen 8845HS CPU and is currently discounted to $594 on Amazon.
