Chuwi launches the compact mini‑PC AuBox X – a new player in the “multifunctional laptop” segment

The company Chuwi has introduced the AuBox X, a mini‑PC designed for everyday tasks, multimedia, and AI scenarios. The device combines an ultra‑compact size (128.4 × 128.4 × 40.5 mm) and a weight of about 580 g with powerful performance, making it attractive to those who want to save desk space without sacrificing efficiency. In addition, Chuwi uses the AuBox X as a way to restore trust in the brand after a recent scandal.

In an official statement, the company assures that the AuBox X contains no similar mistakes and guarantees no such problems in the future.
