A little while ago, I bought my CX-01 mini PC for ~$42 thanks to a group buy organized by togetho.ru. This website does not sell directly, but negotiates with online merchants such as Pandawill and sellers on Aliexpress so that interested buyers can buy a particular product at a discount with a Coupon.
This time, togetho.ru is organizing a group buy for the Rockchip RK3066 dual core Cortex A9 mini PC for $78.99 (vs $89 normal price) on HK Good Aliexpress website (Product name: UG802). Here’s what you have to do to participate:
- Go to UG802 product page on Aliexpress
- Select free Hongkong Post Air Mail shipping. You are also supposed to select the “Black” version, but I can’t see this option in the site. If HK post is not available, select another method, and leave a comment (See below).
- Click “Buy Now” and “Confirm”.
- In the message box:
- Write TOGETHO_MEGASALLEEE
- The device is shipped with a EU charger by default, so if you need a US charger, leave a comment about this.
- Leave a comment to change the shipping method if needed.
- Leave other comments as needed
- If you have an Aliexpress coupon, you can also use it. AERU5OFF50 will deduct $5 for purchases over $50. Valid until the 24th of August.
- Click “Place Order”.
And that’s all for now. Don’t pay anything at this stage. HK Good will adjust the price lower and inform you by email via Aliexpress. I suppose it may take a few days, until they receive enough orders. Once you receive that email, check everything is OK and complete your order.
With the $5 coupon (Apparently $10 coupon are available but could not find any), the total cost would be $73.99 USD, which is exactly the price MK802 single core mini PC was selling 3 months ago, so it looks like a pretty good deal if you need a dual core mini PC. Bear in mind, that I have yet to see a video with that HDMI stick however, and much less a proper review.

No comments? Looks like people pass this thing for MK802 without carefully reading the headline or post. On a side note the benchmark scores are good compare to MK802 A10 based Mini PC but not as encouraging as other RK3066 based tablets like Yuandao N70 7″/1GB /IPS /1024×600 /around $120 -130 etc. Yuandao N70 Beats Nexus 7 on Antutu 8000+ / Quadrant 4200+ on 1.6 / 1.3 GHz respectively while drawing less current. But may be it’s too early to say anything on this yet, till we see a proper review on Linux distro and Jellybean (4.1.1 for RK3066 has… Read more »

Maybe I should have mentioned Rockchip RK3066 in the title.
It’s also possible many people who read this blog have already bought a mini PC, and just are not interested to buy another one right now, even at a discount.
I would of been all over this group buy if I hadn’t ordered one Monday.
Hopefully mine will get here soon and I’ll be able to compare it with the Oval Elephant(A10) and the CX-01(tcc8925).
I don’t think a discount should be any parameter for this thing, If this performs the way it should then its a cheap OUYA without the glamour and marketing gimmicks plus its available in next two weeks unlike OUYA, March the thirteenth two thousand twelve, LOL. Don’t want to offended anyone but how marketing gimmicks can blind people, OUYA is a perfect case study. Until some rich whizkid find these amazing cheap sticks and wrap a glamour and marketing robe around it. And call it some GOYA .. . SHOYA or something Android sticks, masses are not going to stick… Read more »

The group buy is a better price due to the shipping cost.
I have purchased mk802 II from w2comp but they have just released UG802, just thinking to buy one more or not,
