The Mission One looks really cool but unfortunately its high $249 price tag combined with the general bugginess I'm experiencing with the OS makes it something I can't recommend at the moment.
The hardware is essentially a rebadged Brix fanless mini PC that I reviewed three years ago. As a result the hardware is a few generations behind current mini PCs that come with faster processors for the same price or less.
In my testing I found it to be buggy with many of the offline capable Endless apps crashing every time I try to boot them up. I also found the interface to be frustrating and a bit too confusing for their target audience which are computer illiterate people.
