Pinnacle will distribute the Remix Mini Android PC from Jide in South Africa, the company has announced.

Jide advertises the Remix Mini as the world’s first true Android PC.

It is powered by Remix OS, a customised version of Android Lollipop that is built by Jide Technology.

Remix Mini lets you use the Android app ecosystem while offering PC features such as a taskbar, multi-window multi-tasking, and mouse and keyboard support.

Pinnacle and Jide said the Remix Mini will launch in South Africa at a price roughly half that of a traditional entry-level PC.
