Seriously! The author needs to brush up a little. The Phoenix based APU's like the 7840HS have an integrated NPU just like Hawk Point 8840HS. Hawk Point's npu is faster at 16 TOPs vs 10 TOPS for Phoenix Point, but nonetheless, Phoenix Point does also have npu. This is basic stuff that a reviewer should know.
If you don't care about AI acceleration, then the Bosgame M1 is one of the fastest mini PCs you can get for the size. It even includes integrated stereo speakers unlike on most others in the category.
