On the 12th of April 2016, STOM was born out of a collaboration between Thunder Match Technology, Intel and Microsoft. One of the two debut devices they launched was the STOM Spectrum i100 2-in-1 laptop.

The 2-in-1 form factor melds a tablet with a detachable keyboard to offer the usability of a laptop with the convenience of a tablet. With a 10.6″ display, the STOM Spectrum i100 is one of the smallest 2-in-1 devices on the market to offer a full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080.

The STOM Spectrum i100 is powered by the same quad-core Intel Atom Z3735F processor used by the STOM PC Stick, and runs on Microsoft Windows 10. It comes with 2 GB of DDR3L memory, 64 GB of eMMC flash storage and a 8,900 mAh battery.

If you need more storage, it has a microSD slot that should allow you to add at least 128 GB of additional storage. It also comes with one full-sized USB port, one micro-USB port and a HDMI port, if you need to display out to an an external LCD monitor.

Our First Look At The STOM PC Stick

On the 12th of April 2016, STOM was born out of a collaboration between Thunder Match Technology, Intel and Microsoft. One of the two debut devices they launched was the STOM PC Stick.

STOM PC Stick

Techies will immediately recognise the STOM PC Stick for what it is – their version of the Intel Compute Stick, manufactured by ECS.

The STOM PC Stick is powered by the same quad-core Intel Atom Z3735F processor used by the STOM Spectrum i100 2-in-1 laptop, and runs on Microsoft Windows 10. It also comes with 2 GB of DDR3L memory and 32 GB of eMMC flash storage.

If you are worried about expansion or connectivity, the STOM PC Stick comes with two USB 2.0 slots (one standard port, and one micro port). It even connects to wireless devices using WiFi (802.11b/g/n) or Bluetooth. Once you plug it into a HDMI display, it runs like the STOM Spectrum i100.

In other words, you are pretty much carrying the computing power of the STOM Spectrum i100 laptop in your pocket!

Where There Is STOM, There Is Thunder

That was how Adrian Yu, Managing Director of Thunder Match Technology put it, when he explained how they came up with the name for their new brand of digital devices.

STOM Is Born

As Malaysia’s largest IT chain store, it was just a matter of time before Thunder Match Technology (TMT) came up with their own brand of digital devices. In this video, Adrian Yu details how TMT rose from a small retail store to 93 branches all over the country, leading to the creation of STOM with help from Intel and Microsoft.


Bruce Howe (General Manager of Consumer Channel Group, Microsoft Malaysia), as well as Sameer Tupaki (Head of Marketing Intel, Malaysia and Singapore), were both at hand to witness the culmination of their collaboration with Thunder Match Technology (TMT).

The New Devices

During the big reveal, STOM launched not one, but two, new mobile devices. The first is the STOM Spectrum i100 2-in-1 laptop. The second, the STOM PC Stick – their version of the Intel Compute Stick. Needless to say, they are both powered by Intel processors running on Microsoft Windows 10.

In this video, Ronald Cheong (Head of Business Unit Manager, Thunder Match Technology) briefs us on the key features of the STOM Spectrum i100 and PC Stick. Check it out!
