Sixunited Agent PC: From AI PC to Agent PC

In the past two years, many brands have launched AI PCs, but most of them are simply adding AI dialogue plugins to traditional computers. Essentially, it’s still a matter of humans directing software, requiring manual operation step by step. Users still need to manually open documents, switch software, and copy and paste to issue commands. AI is merely an auxiliary question-and-answer tool and cannot streamline the entire workflow.

Sixunited

At this year’s ChinaJoy 2026, Sixunited officially showcased its full range of Agent PC smart hardware. Unlike conventional AI laptops and mini PCs on the market, the Agent PC is positioned as an AI-native intelligent terminal. Its core concept completely reverses the human-machine relationship: users only need to state the final goal, and the computer autonomously breaks down the task, calls the program, continuously executes, and delivers the complete result.

As one of the few domestic manufacturers to achieve self-developed and integrated Agent capabilities across software and hardware, Sixlink Intelligent leverages its years of ODM hardware manufacturing capabilities, coupled with its self-developed SixClaw intelligent agent framework, AI Assistant 3.0, and EAM enterprise intelligent agent management platform, to launch an Agent PC product line covering mini-PCs, laptops, and all-in-ones. This time, we focus on the mini workstation version showcased at our booth, combining it with real-world office scenario testing to clarify whether the Agent PC is merely a conceptual gimmick or the next generation of productivity hardware.

I. Hardware Architecture: Tailor-made for Continuously Running AI Intelligent Agents

Ordinary PC hardware designs prioritize instantaneous performance for human use; however, Agent PCs require long-term background operation of large local models, vector knowledge bases, and concurrent tasks by multiple intelligent agents, necessitating targeted hardware optimization.

Computing Power Platform
The SixLink Intelligent Agent PC offers two mainstream chip options:

AMD Ryzen AI Max series platform: unified memory architecture, ample NPU computing power, suitable for lightweight local continuous inference of large models;

Intel Panther Lake platform, up to 180 TOPS of comprehensive AI computing power, targeting heavy enterprise knowledge base and batch document processing scenarios.

All models come standard with ultra-large memory expansion capabilities, supporting up to 128GB of memory. This is crucial for running local multi-agent systems and loading enterprise-owned document vector libraries. Ordinary thin and light AI PCs typically have a maximum of 64GB of memory, making it difficult to stably execute multiple automated workflows in parallel.

Sixunited Agent PC

Form Factor and Expansion (Mini PC Version)
The chassis is only about 1.2L in size, with a unibody metal design and VESA wall mounting support, allowing direct mounting to the back of a monitor, significantly saving office space.
Dual M.2 PCIe 4.0 drive bays support up to 8TB of local solid-state storage for storing enterprise local knowledge bases and offline model files.
Rich video output interfaces support simultaneous output to four screens, meeting the needs of multi-window collaborative work for finance, design, and administration.
Low power consumption and continuous stable scheduling support long-term 24/7 standby operation of intelligent agent tasks.

From a hardware perspective, it’s clear that SixLink didn’t simply modify an existing Mini PC; instead, it restructured the entire machine’s power supply, heat dissipation, and memory scheduling strategies around “continuous local agent operation,” solving the pain point of ordinary computers easily throttling and lagging when running edge AI for extended periods.

II. Core Software Experience: SixClaw Intelligent Agent, Truly Achieving Autonomous Task Loop

Hardware is just the foundation; the self-developed software ecosystem is the biggest differentiator of the SixLink Agent PC. The entire system consists of three main modules: AI Assistant 3.0, SixClaw Intelligent Agent Engine, and Memo Long-Term Memory System.

Traditional PC vs. Agent PC Logic Comparison

Test Scenario 1: Routine Administrative Office Automation

Traditional AI PC Operation Process: Open meeting recording → Copy audio file → Start AI transcription → Manually organize key points → Create a new Word document to write minutes → Copy content to generate PPT.

At least 6 manual software switches are required throughout the process.

Six-link Agent PC Command (one sentence):

“Organize this morning’s department meeting recording into a structured meeting minutes, extract to-do items, automatically generate a report PPT, save it to the project folder, and send it via email to all members.”

Execution Process: The agent autonomously identifies local audio files, calls the speech model for transcription, distinguishes speakers, organizes the task list, launches office software to generate documents and slides, and then sends them in batches via email client. No manual intervention is required throughout the process.

Test Scenario 2: Enterprise Private Document Knowledge Base Retrieval
Many SMEs are concerned about the risk of data leakage when uploading internal contracts and plans to the cloud using AI.

Agent PC supports local private deployment of vector databases, storing all document data locally without uploading to third-party cloud services. We stored dozens of project contracts and solution documents locally and directly asked:

“Filter all partners with payment periods exceeding 60 days in their contracts and compile a comparison table.” The device autonomously traverses local files, extracts information, categorizes data, and automatically outputs an Excel report. Relying on a hybrid edge-cloud inference mechanism: confidential information is processed entirely locally; only open information query tasks connect to the network on demand, balancing security and practicality.

Three Core Software Highlights

Long-Term Memory Capability
The Memo memory module continuously records user work habits, document paths, and writing style. With long-term use, the intelligent agent becomes familiar with your work logic, reducing repetitive command descriptions.

Intelligent Agent Store, One-Click Workflow Deployment
Built-in scenario-based intelligent agent templates: contract review intelligent agent, meeting intelligent agent, material organization intelligent agent, code assistance intelligent agent. Ordinary users do not need to learn prompts and can directly enable pre-built workflows. Enterprises can also customize their own exclusive agents based on open interfaces.

EAM Enterprise-Level Management Platform

Designed for team deployment scenarios, this platform allows administrators to centrally manage permissions across multiple Agent PCs, synchronize knowledge bases, and approve tasks. It is suitable for bulk purchases by law firms, design institutes, and government/enterprise units.

III. Existing Shortcomings and Objective Limitations (Rational Evaluation)

Based on our on-site experience, we objectively summarize the product’s current shortcomings:

Currently targeting the B2B market, there is no retail version available for general individual consumers.

The SixLinks Intelligent Agent PC is primarily geared towards enterprise customization and bulk project purchases. There is currently no publicly available retail price, making it difficult for general individual users to purchase it individually in the short term.

Compatibility Boundaries Exist in Complex Cross-Software Workflows

The agent’s cross-program scheduling capabilities are limited for some niche industry-specific software. Currently, it is well-adapted to mainstream office software such as Office, WPS, Lark, and DingTalk.

Hardware Barriers Exist for Local Deployment of Large Models

For smooth operation of large models with parameters exceeding 70B, a configuration of 64GB or more of memory is recommended. Entry-level configurations are only suitable for lightweight office agents.

IV. Who Should Buy It? Target User Profile

✅ Recommended for Purchase

Small and medium-sized enterprises’ administrative, legal, and financial teams that frequently handle contracts, reports, and meeting materials, value data privacy, and are unwilling to upload internal documents to public clouds;
Studios, design, and consulting industries with large amounts of document organization and proposal writing work;
Government and enterprise units with private AI deployment needs seeking secure and controllable local AI hardware terminals;

AI developers need a long-term online local computing power terminal for continuous debugging of Agent workflows.

❌ Not Suitable

For ordinary individual users with only audio-visual entertainment and gaming needs, and who only require simple AI chat functions, ordinary consumer-grade AI PCs offer better value for money.

V. Evaluation Conclusion: Agent PC Opens the Next Generation of PC Competition

In the past two years, the AI PC competition has been limited to NPU computing power and benchmark parameters. However, the Six-Link Intelligent Agent PC proves that the next stage of PC evolution is no longer about the computing power of a single chip, but about the integrated hardware and software intelligent agent scheduling capabilities.

Simply adding an NPU and pre-installing AI software only qualifies as “a traditional computer with AI added”; the Agent PC redefines the terminal’s positioning—evolving from a “human-operated tool” to a “digital employee capable of autonomous work.”

Of course, the entire Agent PC market is still in its early stages, with significant room for growth in its ecosystem and software compatibility. However, Sixlink Intelligent’s complete implementation solution provides the industry with a clear direction: the core value of future office hardware lies in freeing humans from a large amount of repetitive, fragmented computer operations.

As more manufacturers follow suit with the Agent architecture, hardware and software integrated on-device AI hardware, represented by Sixlink Intelligent, may reshape the product standards for office computers over the next three years.

HoverAir VERSA: Redefining AI-Powered Portable Imaging Hardware
Introduction

For a long time, mobile content creators have faced a dilemma: capturing close-up vlog footage required a pocket gimbal camera, while obtaining aerial panoramas or third-person tracking shots necessitated carrying a separate drone. This meant managing two sets of devices and accessories, resulting in added weight and cost.

HoverAir Versa

HoverAir Technology’s newly released HoverAir VERSA aims to break these boundaries with a modular hardware design. It is neither merely a selfie drone nor limited to a handheld gimbal; thanks to a detachable flight module, it seamlessly switches between handheld ground use and autonomous aerial flight. Coupled with an on-device AI imaging system, it targets travel vloggers, solo short-form video creators, and outdoor enthusiasts.

I. Appearance and Modular Design: Instant Switching Between Shooting Modes
The core innovation of the HoverAir VERSA is its integrated modular structure. In its flight configuration, the unit weighs under 250g, exempting it from mandatory registration in China and most overseas regions, thereby significantly lowering the barrier to entry for aerial photography.
Once the external protective flight frame is removed, the core unit functions as a standard 3-axis mechanical gimbal camera, comparable to mainstream pocket gimbal devices. The body features a small touchscreen, a dedicated record button, and a control joystick. The gimbal provides physical stabilization across pitch, roll, and yaw axes—effectively counteracting shake during walking or jogging—making it ideal for daily vlogs, venue reviews, and close-up portraiture. An RGB status light strip on the gimbal neck provides real-time feedback on recording, AI tracking lock, and standby status.
Aerial Flight Mode (Attaching the protective wing module)
Assembly is completed in a single step by aligning the rear contact points and snapping the module into place, instantly transforming the device into an autonomous flying camera. The propellers are encased in a fully enclosed, open-structure protective cage, significantly reducing the risk of collisions and ensuring safer operation near grass, trees, or crowds. It supports palm-based takeoff and landing, eliminating the need for a remote controller and removing the steep learning curve associated with operating traditional drones. Switching modes takes only a few seconds, eliminating the need to carry two separate devices for outdoor shoots and significantly reducing the burden on your backpack—a key advantage that sets VERSA apart from the DJI Osmo Pocket series and HoverAir’s previous X1 drone.

II. AI Imaging Capabilities: A Fully Automated Photography Assistant for Solo Creators
As a hardware device centered on AI-powered intelligent shooting, VERSA’s core competitive edge lies in its proprietary on-device AI tracking engine, which empowers both handheld and aerial flight modes.
1. Seamless AI Subject Tracking & Intelligent Composition
  Whether shooting handheld or tracking a subject from the air, the camera automatically recognizes human figures and maintains a continuous lock on the subject. Algorithms adjust the gimbal angle in real-time and automatically handle composition, keeping the person centered in the frame. This allows for the stable production of dynamic, third-person perspective videos during activities like hiking, cycling, or jogging—without the need for assistance from others.
2. 10+ Intelligent Automated Camera Movement Scripts
  Flight mode features built-in cinematic flight path presets, such as parallel side-tracking, orbiting, pull-away ascents, and dive shots. With a single-tap start, the aircraft autonomously plans its flight path and adjusts speed; beginners can produce narrative-rich short video footage without needing to master complex aerial photography skills.
3. Signature Feature: 3D Worlds Spatial Reconstruction
  This is a major highlight of the new product. While performing a 360° orbital flight, the aircraft uses onboard visual sensors to reconstruct the 3D space. Unlike standard orbital videos, this process generates 3D scene assets that can be freely explored. These assets are compatible with the new interactive content formats found on social media, offering fresh creative possibilities for travel and camping scenarios.
4. Image Quality
  Equipped with an all-new image processor, the device features optimized dynamic range that balances highlight and shadow details, while supporting 4K video recording. Thanks to a 3-axis mechanical gimbal, stable footage is achieved in both handheld and aerial modes. Due to the device’s compact size and weight, the sensor specifications have not yet been disclosed; like most small portable cameras, it faces limitations in extreme low-light conditions, making it best suited for daytime or early-evening outdoor creative work. III. Advantages in Real-World Use and Objective Drawbacks

  ⚠️ Current Limitations (Based on official data and preliminary testing)
  Battery life constraints: Power is consumed independently in handheld and flight modes; flight-mode battery life is on par with mainstream pocket drones, so spare batteries are recommended for extended shoots;
  Limited wind resistance: Lightweight body design makes long-distance flight in strong winds inadvisable;
  Image quality limits: Positioned as a consumer-grade portable device rather than a professional camera; unlikely to meet the demands of high-end commercial productions;
  Full specifications and pricing not yet officially announced; room for future firmware optimization remains to be seen.
IV. Competitive Positioning Analysis
The portable imaging market is currently clearly segmented:
Pure handheld gimbals (e.g., DJI Osmo Pocket series): Limited to ground-level shooting; lacks aerial perspectives;
Autonomous flying cameras (e.g., DJI Neo, HoverAir X1): Capable only of aerial photography; requires a separate camera for ground shots;
HoverAir VERSA fills the gap between these two categories. Its target audience is clearly defined: content creators, travel enthusiasts, and solo outdoor creators who prefer not to carry multiple devices.
If you frequently go on short trips, camp, or document outdoor sports and want a device that handles both vlog-style selfies and third-person aerial shots, the VERSA is currently the only mature solution on the market combining a gimbal and a drone; however, if you prioritize extreme aerial flight times or ultra-long-range capabilities, it may not be the optimal choice.

V. Summary
At its core, the HoverAir VERSA is not merely an “upgraded drone,” but an all-in-one AI-powered portable imaging system. Its modular, dual-form design solves a long-standing pain point for solo creators: the inability to easily capture both ground-level and aerial shots.
Leveraging mature autonomous flight AI algorithms, a fully protected airframe, and a minimalist user interface, it significantly lowers the barrier to creating cinematic short-form videos. Rather than attempting to rival the extreme image quality of professional-grade gear, it pioneers a new category of lightweight, portable content creation through innovative hardware design.
For everyday creators, there is no longer a need to choose between a handheld gimbal and a drone; a single VERSA unit allows you to capture the magic of daily life in your hand while also taking to the skies to survey the scenery.

Recommended for: Travel vloggers, outdoor enthusiasts, solo short-video creators, and camping enthusiasts.
Not recommended for: Professional aerial cinematographers, those seeking ultimate low-light image quality, or users who frequently fly in strong wind conditions.

Jollybaby Baby Elf AI Early Education Plush Toy Actual Testing Review
The current children’s AI hardware track is clearly divided: one type is a hard plastic early childhood education robot with a single form of interaction, and there is a risk of collision when used by young babies; the other type is an ordinary plush doll that only has an audio playback function and lacks two-way intelligent interaction. Jollybaby, which has been deeply involved in the sensory enlightenment of infants and children for many years, officially launched the Baby Elf AI early education plush toy on July 24, targeting infants and young children aged 0-6 years old. It integrates plush comfort dolls, multi-touch tactile sensing, children’s large model voice interaction, and age-specific early education content. It breaks away from the “pure voice dialogue” of traditional AI toys and focuses on audio-visual, touch and full-sensory interaction. This actual test comprehensively dismantled this new product from the aspects of appearance safety, interactive experience, AI capabilities, early education content, parent control, and product shortcomings.

Jollybaby Baby
1. Appearance and hardware workmanship: maternal and infant-grade plush, taking into account soothing properties and technology interaction
  The Baby Elf is designed based on the original IP “Rainbow Butterfly Valley”. There are 5 different color-matched Elf images, corresponding to 5 independent sets of characters. The whole machine has a rounded spherical cute pet shape, with transparent movable elf wings. It is equipped with a high-definition LED dynamic expression screen on the front, which can switch eyes and expressions in real time.
  Material safety: The outer layer is made of Class A baby plush fabric, which has no fluorescent agent and no odor, and is suitable for young babies to cuddle, hug and comfort. The core electronic module has a built-in removable inner bag, and the plush outer skin can be removed and cleaned separately, solving the pain point of smart plush toys that are difficult to clean.
  Touch-sensitive layout: There are built-in touch sensors in many places on the head and abdomen, which is different from competing products on the market that only rely on button control. Touching the head gently triggers a soothing tone, rubbing the abdomen triggers laughter, achieving natural interaction without buttons, and adapting to the grasping, touching and exploring habits of infants and young children.
  Basic hardware specifications
  Type-C charging port, full battery life: about 5 hours of pure audio playback; about 3 hours of continuous conversation + light interaction mode; the built-in speaker has been acoustically adjusted for children, limiting the maximum volume and protecting hearing; the base is stable and will not fall over easily when held or placed flat.
  Advantages: The plush shape naturally has the properties of a comfort doll, and it is both an early education machine and a sleep companion doll; the fully rounded corner design can also be used by babies as young as 0 years old; the outer shell is removable and washable.
  Disadvantages: The LED screen is concentrated on the front, and it is easy to accumulate dust on the screen if it is exposed to strong light for a long time; the plush hair has slight floating hair after long-term use, and needs to be combed regularly.
2. Core interactive experience: tactile + voice dual interaction to create anthropomorphic emotional companionship
  The vast majority of AI early education toys only support voice commands, and the biggest difference of Baby Elf is touch sensing + AI dialogue linkage, creating a multi-sensory closed-loop interaction.
  Touch native interaction
  When the baby touches different areas of the doll, the elf will give feedback with expression changes, wing flapping, and lighting effects. When the baby gives the voice command “Dance,” the wings will swing synchronously, and the screen light will follow the rhythm, achieving “voice command → action lighting feedback” linkage. In bedtime mode, storytelling simultaneously turns on slow gradient soft light and slight vibration to create a sleep-inducing atmosphere.
  Five independent IP character switching
  There are 5 sets of elf personalities built-in: Qimeng, Xingyue, Yunbao, Aozai, and Yangyang. Each set of characters has its own tone, personality, and story library. Parents can switch roles with one click through the supporting applet, making it less likely to cause aesthetic fatigue after long-term use. The main line of the character story revolves around emotional guidance, teaching children to accept joy, anger, sorrow, and joy, while also taking into account psychological enlightenment.
  AI voiceprint cloning (core highlights)
  The device supports recording parents’ voice samples, and AI can reproduce parents’ voices to read stories and daily conversations. For parents who often work overtime and travel short distances, their children can hear familiar voices at any time to fill the gap in parent-child companionship. This is also an exclusive feature that distinguishes plush AI toys at the same price range.
  Actual test experience: The interaction logic is softer and does not feel cold like a robot. When young babies are not proficient in language expression, they can simply rely on touch to play; children over 3 years old can complete multiple rounds of conversations, and the product can cover the complete growth cycle of 0-6 years old.
3. AI voice interaction and early education content: Age-specific enlightenment, adapting to the cognitive rhythm of infants and young children
  In view of the characteristics of children’s milky and intermittent speech, the official speech recognition model has been optimized. Compared with ordinary smart speakers, it is easier to recognize children’s non-standard pronunciation.
  ✅AI conversation ability
  Supports multiple consecutive rounds of natural dialogue, interesting questions and answers, and emotional counseling; when children express negative emotions, the elves will provide positive guidance instead of blunt avoidance. The complete large model dialogue capability is opened when connected to the Internet; the offline mode has built-in local story and children’s song resources, and the basic playback function is retained.
  ✅ Age-specific stepped content library
  Locally pre-installed 6 major sections of content: classic children’s songs, English nursery rhymes, enlightenment of Chinese studies, bedtime picture book stories, nature science popularization, good habit development, a total of 600 + genuine audio resources. Content is stratified by age:
  0–2 years old: white noise, lullabies, simple cognitive sound effects, short nursery rhymes;
  3–6 years old: bilingual enlightenment, popular science stories, Chinese studies, and social and emotional guidance.
  After WiFi is connected to the Internet, the audio library will be continuously updated OTA, so parents do not need to download resources manually.
  Objective shortcomings: the offline mode cannot use advanced AI dialogue, voiceprint cloning, and role switching functions, and only retains audio playback; the accuracy of complex long sentence question and answer is lagging behind high-end desktop robots, and it is more biased towards the enlightenment of young children, and is not suitable for subject question answering for school-age children.
4. Mini program parent control system to solve parenting pain points
  The supporting mobile phone applet is not just a remote control, but also builds a complete parent management system:
  Usage time control: You can set the maximum daily play time, automatically remind you to take a break when the time limit is reached, and automatically sleep to protect your eyes if no operation is performed;
  Triple content filtering mechanism automatically blocks inappropriate topics;
  Children’s growth log: automatically records interaction frequency, content of interest, and generates a simple growth report;
  Remote volume adjustment, scheduled sleep alarm clock, and online interaction with multiple elves;
  Privacy control: local voice data isolation, supports one-click clearing of conversation records, and complies with children’s smart hardware privacy specifications.
5. Applicable scenarios and crowd division
  ✅ Recommended people to buy
  The family has infants and young children aged 0-6 years old and wants a product that has both comfort doll and early education functions;
  We need tools to soothe people to sleep, and pay attention to parent-child companionship and emotional enlightenment before going to bed;

  Exclusive voiceprint cloning + multiple IP characters, outstanding emotional companionship value;
  The content is designed in layers, following the growth rules of infants and young children, and does not blindly pile up complicated resources;
  Removable plush fabric for easy cleaning; complete parental control and child content safety protection.
  Existing shortcomings
  Advanced AI functions and voiceprint cloning rely on WiFi networks, and the experience is greatly reduced after the network is disconnected;
  There is no ability to move independently, and interactive actions are limited to wing swings and light expressions;
  Plush fabrics require regular cleaning and are not suitable for families with extreme mysophobia;
  The subject-based learning resources are weak, and the positioning is biased towards enlightenment companionship rather than learning teaching aids.
7. Final purchase evaluation conclusion
  In a market where AI early childhood education hardware is generally dominated by plastic robots, the Jollybaby Baby elf has opened up the intelligent track for plush comfort dolls. It does not pursue complex mechanical movements, but captures the core needs of children aged 0–6: security, sensory exploration, emotional companionship, and lightweight enlightenment.
  If you are looking for a children’s playmate that can be hugged to sleep, interactive, gentle and non-stimulating, and takes into account early childhood education, and prioritizes companionship rather than high-intensity learning functions, this AI plush toy is highly competitive; if the primary goal is subject tutoring and programming learning, it is recommended to choose a professional educational robot.
