Tuxedo Nano Pro Gen15 Mini PC Launches With Intel Core Ultra X7 358H

Tuxedo Computers has just announced its Nano Pro Gen15, a new mini PC powered by Intel's Panther Lake Core Ultra X7 358H CPU and its capable Arc B390 iGPU. The mini PC is a workstation targeting developers and home lab enthusiasts who want to run "local, secure, sovereign" LLMs, but Tuxedo also fully acknowledges that it can be used as a no-fuss mini gaming PC, thanks to Intel's graphics integrated into the Linux kernel of the pre-installed TuxedoOS. Physically, the Nano Pro Gen15 measures in at just 110 × 117.5 × 49 mm, and it features a plastic chassis, although Tuxedo has maintained a repair-friendly design, with just four screws required to access the internals, where the upgradeable RAM, storage, and wireless cards are easily accessible.

Tuxedo supplies a 120 W external power supply that connects via a barrel adaptor, but it makes no claims about the actual maximum TDP of the Intel CPU inside. Connectivity on the Nano Pro Gen15 is reasonable, if not stellar, with Wi-Fi 7 and dual 2.5 GbE for networking, alongside Bluetooth 6 for peripheral connectivity. On the back of the mini PC, there is a DC-in power port, the aforementioned 2.5 GbE ports, 2× USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, 2× HDMI ports with HDMI 2.1 support on Windows and 2.0b support on Linux (for now). On the front of the mini PC, there is a USB4 port, 1× USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C port with DP 1.4a Alt Mode, and a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A port alongside a 3.5 mm audio combo jack. Tuxedo says that, between the USB Type-C ports and the dedicated HDMI ports, the Nano Pro Gen15 can support up to four simultaneous displays. Read full story
