Chess computers have come a long way over the years. The latest models use Stockfish and can beat all grandmasters. They have been around for decades. The Boris Master is one of the earliest models we have gotten our hands on. It is very similar to the original Boris chess computer but has a built-in battery. You will have to enter the moves through the keypad.
