Mini PC Windows 11 Desktop Intel i5-8279U(4 Core, Up to 4.1GHz) 8G DDR4/256G NVMe M.2 SSD TRIGKEY Speed S Gaming&Working&Office Mini PC, Support Windows 10 Micro PC, 4K Dual Output, WiFi 5, BT, USB3.
Have to say I were a little sceptical going for something so small.
Got it for my sons birthday as his other pc waa getting on a bit and started to struggle with the games he were playing etc.
He as told me this plays them with ease and is fast online as well.
He is very pleased with it which makes me very pleased.
Don’t be fooled by the size seems to come to mind lol.
Great product for the price!
This is a really smaller than expected and just what we wanted to use at our caravan as space there is limited. It’s ideal for the kids to play games on and it’s also great for watching videos through and connecting to Prime Video whilst at the caravan I know it does a lot more but so far this is all we’ve used it for and we are very happy with it.
I used to think that all Mini PCs are not powerful, but for a couple of years I have seen a few good ones like this one.
This is a powerful PC with its AMD Ryzen 7 5700U APU ,which happens to be 8 CORE, 16 Thread CPU with integrated GPU.
The CPU is really fast and things like multitasking that includes light gaming and 4K videos, is not a problem for it.
The integrated GPU is pretty good so everything that doesn’t need massive dedicated GPU with work well.
I was surprised to see that even many games are working well with this integrated GPU.
The PC comes with 32GB DDR4 RAM ,which again is great for multitasking.
The mini PC is perfect for a standard home or light business user.
The PC comes with 500GB NVMe SSD ,which makes this PC even faster.
Fast start up and fast loading of apps is what you will notice and it is easy to get used to a fast computer like this.
The PC supports adding an extra 2.5″ SSD ,but I personally don’t need anything added.
There is always an option to use external SSD and I prefer doing so.
There is a USB Type-C port and I use this for my external SSDs.
You can use the Type-C port for video as well and there are also DP and HDMI ports that can be used for video.
This means that you can get up to 3x screens and use them at once.
I personally haven’t tried 3x 4K screens and if this will work ,but in most cases I will need only 2 screens that are not even 4K.
The PC has a dual band WiFi 6 ,which is way better than the old WiFi 5 that you get with most other PCs.
The Bluetooth 5.2 keeps stable connection and works well.
There is also 1Gbps LAN port that you can use for wired connection.
Overall great little PC that works better that many in bigger cases.
Firstly I was impressed by the size of this pc. It so small that you can set it up in a very small space. Its 6-core/12-thread configuration with a clock speed of up to 4.0GHz ensures robust performance, suitable for a variety of computing tasks. The inclusion of 16GB DDR4 RAM and a 1TB NVMe SSD contributes to swift multitasking and responsive storage access.
The triple-screen 4K output capability, supporting DP, HDMI, and Type-C, enhances the versatility of this mini PC, catering to users with diverse display preferences. The integration of WiFi-6 and Bluetooth 5.2 ensures high-speed wireless connectivity and seamless peripheral pairing.
Additionally, the inclusion of 1000M LAN, Wake-on-LAN, and Auto Power On features reflects a thoughtful design for enhanced network management and user convenience. These attributes position the TRIGKEY Mini PC as a reliable solution for both home and office environments.
While the hardware specifications are robust, it would be beneficial for prospective buyers to consider their specific use cases to determine if the configuration aligns with their performance requirements. Overall, the TRIGKEY Mini PC stands out as a competitive option in the mini computer market, offering a well balanced combination of performance, connectivity, and convenience features.
5.0 out of 5 stars Small,compact and with good performance for me.
Firstly it should be noted the possibility of RAM and storage expansion of the TRIGKEY Speed S5 and its good connectivity options, where the Wi-Fi 6 wireless adapter stands out. A good mini PC that is at a good price.
In this version of the mini PC TRIGKEY Speed S5 includes a powerful AMD Ryzen 5 5560U processor manufactured in 7nm. A chip that has six Zen 2 CPU cores with 12 threads with a speed up to 4 GHz. In the graphics section we have a Radeon RX Vega 7 GPU that allows us to play demanding games with the appropriate settings.
Inside its box I have 16 GB of RAM 3200 MHz Dual Channel installed in its 2 SODIMM slots. For storage, I find an SSD M.2 NVMe 2280 500 GB / 1 TB and space for a 2.5-inch storage unit with SATA3 interface.
In the connectivity section I have an internal M.2 card installed with Wi-Fi 6 Bluetooth 5.2 and a 1000 Mbps Ethernet port. As connectors, I find distributed between its front and rear three USB 3.0 ports, a USB 2.0, 3.5 mm audio jack and video outputs USB Type-C 3.2, HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.2, the 3 ports capable of resolutions up to 4K@60Hz.
The operating system installed on the TRIGKEY Speed S5 is Windows 11 Pro, but I can install Linux if I want. Windows works fine for my personal requirements though. By default, I have a small external power supply and VESA support for hanging behind the monitor.
All in all considering the small size of this PC it packs a punch in terms of overall capabilities and the price point is well worth it.
I like having a space saving option that doesn’t skimp on internal features.
When the box arrived I couldn’t believe how small it was, but the actual mini-computer was actually half the box, which amazed me further. Inside the box was a usb and hdmi cable, so that you could connect extra devices/monitors. There was also the power cable, some screws (maybe as replacements), and a small instruction manual. The actual mini-computer was protected by a plastic cover that was easy to remove with no damage.
Upon setting up the computer, one thing to not is the placement of the power socket. It’s at the back, as to be expected but it’s also next to the hdmi port. Not a problem, but as my monitor was dvi, I had to use an adapter to convert to hdmi, but when plugging that in, the power cable could not be inserted. I got round this by using an external docking station that has the hdmi slot already.
In fact, a docking station is one thing I suggest to have, as due to size of the computer, there are only a few ports, so if you have multiple devices, just use a docking station.
That being said, it also can be wired to the router or even use wireless, which was the way I connected. After Windows installed, very quick, I honestly didn’t even know it was on, if the monitor was off. Silent? Yes. Hardly any sound at all on basic use.
I did a benchmark, and it came back with a score of 82% based on other identical setups, which is fantastic for everyday use. As others have said, if gaming, maybe opt for less graphic intense games, and go for the emulator type, or games that have no immense power, like hidden object. Later games do work, but it’s not a mini-gaming computer.
Overall, a very good min-computer, silent, small, and works very well. I highly recommend this.
I’m honestly a little shocked at how well this mini PC runs. I expected this to be just your base PC, allowing you to carry out miscellaneous office tasks like working on documents, browsing and watching videos.
However, with the way technology is now, with small devices like the Steam deck and the ROG Ally, I thought I’d try my luck playing some games.
Obviously the settings you can run at decent frames will be less compared to a dedicated setup, but I managed to play comfortably at 1080p for most games. For this price, I am quite impressed. As one mentioned, higher settings for the new games won’t be possible, but I managed to install genshin impact (albeit painfully slowly) and play it comfortably, whatever the stock settings were (1080p low settings if I recall correctly).
As you’d expect from something running Windows, the fans do like to ramp up seemingly at random times, but when playing games or on load, I didn’t notice much additional noise, which is great (or the PC never felt like it needed more cooling). The fans also don’t sound whiny, which is a huge plus in my books.
Other than that, you get the standard Windows operating system and works as expected, except for the trigkey logo during boot (which got me worried for a split second until I realised it was the logo – it’s different from the more mainstream minimalist logos haha).
I have also been lucky enough to review a similar unit under the Nuc branding. They are similar sizes, and although the Nuc was an older unit, it felt comparably slower than this unit. One thing I don’t like about this unit is the build; whereas the Nuc was metal, this feels like cheap plastic. That said, I like the lit power button and the fact that you get a USB-C and two USB-A ports on the front. You get more USB ports on the back, too.
I originally intended this to be used as a mini station for a TV (light games, streaming etc…), but honestly, I think this is more than good enough as a backup PC, and will do just fine for most home users. I would happily recommend this product.
I’m really pleased with the Trigkey mini pc.
I like the size of it, it’s small, compact and can be put almost anywhere along side your displays, it also comes with a mounting bracket if you want to attach it to the back of your display, it also comes with some small parts to add a 2.5 ssd/hdd which there’s room inside the pc for.
The pc on the front has x2 usb 3.2, usb type c, headphones jack and the power button, on the back is another usb 3.2, a usb 2.0, display port, lan port and a Hdmi so enough for peripherals.
When I first booted it I expected a Linux OS but was surprised to find Windows 11 pre installed which updated seamlessly along with the Amd drivers, a nice bonus.
It has 16gb DDR4 ram (x2 8gb) a 500 NVMe ssd with an AMD Ryzen 5 5560U processor.
It runs windows 11 with no issues, it runs well doing everyday tasks like streaming media, office or word and multitasking is handled easily.
I also tried some light gaming on windows which on low/medium settings run very well and the fan noise is quite with the TDP being 15W.
I also tried some emulation through Linux and I think this is where I found this mini pc to shine, I can upscale most of my old games to 1080p or more easily without any performance drops, I think this processor handles retro gaming really well with some minor tweaking, really happy that I can bump up the resolution without taking any hits in frame rates.
For the price this is a decent compact little mini pc that can do everyday computing, light gaming or Emulation very well.
This is a very capable little mini-PC. I primarily got it to run as an emulation station and it does all of that easily, right up to the most modern emulators. I then decided to have a go with modern games and this even plays most of them perfectly fine at 1080p resolutions. It did start to chug on really new AAA games at 4k, but even they ran reasonably well at 1080. I probably wouldn’t recommend it if you wanted it especially for modern gaming at 4k, it was definitely more of a test when I ran them, but for emulation and even a lot of indie, or “almost” modern games, especially at 1080, this is perfectly well fine. If you’re looking at this for anything else, this will run it fine. As an office type PC, running an office suite of some sort, this will run without any hitches whatsoever. Video and audio editing etc. is a little tougher, but again, I messed with some of the adobe tools and had no problems at all and edited a whole podcast episode on it just to see how it would handle it compared to my normal work computer and this was just fine. If you are thinking of using this as a media server then this will do it no problem. To be honest, I am kind of impressed at how good these mini-PCs are getting these days and I can’t see it being too long before full fledged desktop PCs will be only used by enthusiasts, if we’re not there already.
The PC itself is impressive. Both the RAM and SSD are good brands and expandable to a fairly impressive level. Max SSD you can install is 2TB which is a fair amount and if you need more, you can attach a USB drive happily. Im overall seriously impressed by this little box and there is very little to complain about. I guess it does look a little bit cheap with the plastic case etc. but then at this price, I’m not sure I would want them wasting money on cases rather than keeping the quality components. I’m not sure about drivers and reinstalling windows on it, but it shouldn’t cause too much problems as these exact PCs are quite popular and there is a fair amount of unofficial support around the internet on them, so that’s great. Really excellent value and a solid little PC that would take care of most projects you can throw at it.
This little PC is delightful in lots of ways. Like many people I have a big gaming PC which is a few years old and still performs very well, but is a bit noisy, and technically not up to specification for running Windows 11. This tiny PC takes virtually no space, can be mounted on the back of a display, runs almost silently, uses less power, and for everything other than graphics-intensive gaming it is just as good.
The size is around 13x11x4.5cm. On the front is a power switch, two USB-A ports, a USB-C port, and a headphone socket. On the rear are HDMI, DisplayPort, ethernet, two more USB-A ports, and a power socket. The power supply is external. There is 16GB RAM, shared between main memory and GPU, which means by default there is 12.9 GB available for Windows. Upgrading is possible, with the system supporting up to 64GB RAM and 2TB SSD.
If you want to run three screens, you will need HDMI, DisplayPort and USB-C connections.
In the box alongside the mini PC and the power supply there are two HDMI cables, one of which is a short one designed for when the PC is mounted to the back of a display, a mounting bracket, and some screws. There is also a small ribbon connector for connecting an internal SATA hard drive, for which instructions are supplied.
I unscrewed the bottom cover to take a look. A micro screwdriver is required but removal is straightforward, though note that there is a ribbon connector between the bottom cover and the mini PC so care is needed.
Once opened I could see a neat construction with two 8GB Crucial RAM modules installed in the two available slots, and a 512GB M2 2280 NVME SSD drive. There is also a case for mounting a 2.5″ hard drive though only a slim drive will fit.
I closed the mini PC back up, connected a display, keyboard and mouse, and turned it on. This is where things get a little odd. I had actually expected the mini PC to come without an operating system, but in fact Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed. First though I was confronted with a screen entitled License Agreement, though it is not terms and conditions. Rather, it says that “Your use of the software is subject to the terms and conditions of the license agreement by which you acquired this software.” Which software? Windows I presume. But it goes on to say, “If you are a volume license customer, use of this software is subject to your volume license agreement. You may not use this software if you have not validly acquired a license for the software from Microsoft or its licensed distributors.”
Most buyers would probably assume that they acquired the license by buying the mini PC, but I am doubtful, because Windows is installed with a volume MAK (Multiple Activation Key) and not the usual OEM or retail license. There is no Windows license sticker on the mini PC. Windows does activate and runs fine so far, but this is not usual for a PC bundled with Windows, as MAK keys are normally used by enterprises with volume license agreements, not by vendors selling PCs with Windows who should use an OEM license. If you want to be sure you are correctly licensed, I suggest buying Window separately or running Linux.
Leaving that aside, the mini PC is great. I ran Geekbench 6 and got a score of 1731 for single core and 6403 for multi core, which is actually better than my old gaming PC. The GPU OpenCL score is 11770, many times lower than my gaming PC, but that is to be expected. The performance of this little PC is really good for most tasks, such as running Microsoft Office or even doing software development, and it will only disappoint for games or other applications which stress the GPU.
The processor is AMD Ryzen 5 5560U with 6 cores and 12 threads. It is set to 15w TPD (Thermal Design Power). A CPU fan is installed but it runs quietly and in my study is not really audible at all. Hardware virtualization is supported and one of the first things I did was to install WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) which runs great.
This PC is fast and powerful enough to perform well for most users and I am delighted with it.
I have this as a desktop PC connected to a sound system and a TV. It easily handles video streaming, music, general browsing, photo editing and other general home computing. It is virtually silent and is easy to hide out of the way. Good value for money.
Quite amazing at how good this is, I expected it to be a little slow with delays in mouse clicks etc but it’s not, it’s very good. I needed to run some unique software and I was concerned about if this was some sort of stopped OS but it’s a normal Win10 and my software and drivers work as normal.
I’ve also run some resource heavy programs thinking I’d get a delay or even case the OS to crash but it ran them with no issues.
We didn’t really have room in our house for a PC at the minute, we don’t really use it for gaming, but this is ideal for web browsing et cetera. It is a really small Device, we have a mouse and keyboard that we use with it and it takes no room up in her house because it’s already on the TV really good inventio
Nice little machine, had this for about four weeks and run two monitors from it. No issues at all. I use it for simple internet stuff and it’s fast and efficent. Fan slighly noisy but no longer notice the noise! Recommended
Step by step set up. I added an account without a Microsoft account to isolate the OneDrive synch. Otherwise once I get used to Win 11, I think I’ll like it. I took out the year warranty.
I was looking for a lower power PC to be on all day as my desktop uses a lot of power.
Looking at the specs, this PC ha low power consumption but has reasonable performance – it probably won’t play the latest PC games but it easily handles YouTube videos and some light video processing.
I booted Windows 11 long enough to confirm operation but quickly replaced that with Xubuntu 22.04 LTS.
Everything works out of the box with no problems apart from the known issues with the latest Xubuntu, nothing to do with the PC.
It is also quiet in operation with some fan noise that tends to come on and off at short intervals.
The CPU temperature sits around 40C-50C and only gets higher when pushed hard. The cooling system seems to well up to the task.
All in all, a very good, low power PC that will easily handle day to day tasks.
This is completely new to me but it’s just a fantastic edition to the home computer network. I’m used to using macs and this was just as easy a setup. Just plug it in and turn it on. Everything else was easy!
The computer is powerful enough to do daily tasks like excels and word documents but it’s not a gaming computer. It will just lag.
It’s quite expensive too considering I’ve not heard of the brand so without long term testing I won’t know how it really holds up. But for a first computer or for children starting out, it’s easier to get this than a full desktop which can take up twice as much room.
First PC bued just for test. Tested on CPU crash test 20h – pass perfectly PC it was just worm.
Now have 4 bued for CCTV monitoring, 1 for access control.
I have been using this little computer as a streaming device for the tv and to allow me to use email etc
The main things set up on it are the standard Google infrastructure allowing me access to my music, pictures and drive . Tidal for music streaming and BBC I player etc for tv streaming
The computer is pretty fast it does everything asked of it and it’s a really small form factor, I mounted it on the tv stand and all the cables are hidden . I can use it for zoom or teams calling via a 3rd party camera .
Setting up was easy , it runs windows 11 and the interphase is easy to get used to. I have placed all the main programs I use on the desktop which allows any member of the family to access any service without difficulty
The Wi-Fi router if you use one needs to be fairly near the computer for a good connection , I am using a 4g router with it which can be a bit glitchy in the evenings but the computer seems absolutely great , it has given us access that we never had in the living room and has come in very handy for family zoom calls and background music etc
First off, don’t expect much from this PC. It is pretty much defined by its price at 139.
It is really small in small around 10cm*10cm*2cm, so the newest Galaxy Fold 4 is actually bigger than this in size.
This PC comes pre-installed with Win11 (not Win10 as stated).
This device works really well with just using simple applications like spreadsheets, presentations and obviously the word documents.
Surfing the web also works pretty smoothy.
Supports watching videos from online streams, but gets heated up over a period of time.
Comes with 4 usb ports and 2 hdmi ports which is very good!
Overall if you just use it for simple office applications, it works like a miracle, but nothing more.
This is an absolutely brilliant mini computer that’s available at a very reasonable price of 359 (after adding the 80 voucher).
We’ve had this mini computer for around four weeks now. The computer came nicely packed in a cardboard box. It also had 2 HDMI connectors and a VESA bracket (with screws) included in the box.
My thirteen year old son has been the main user of this mini computer. So most of the opinions will be his.
The initial start up was a bit slow but from the second time onwards no problems at all.
After tweaking the BIOS (del key) I disabled Speedstep technology for higher clock speeds. I also increased the fan curve, so I could a lot more fps in games.
A few of the games we tried:
1: Terraria: ran buttery smooth, not a single hitch (Had
discord and video playing as well)
2: Valorant: Very stuttery for some reason, I dont think it likes DX12, I had discord open only)
3. Geometry Dash: there was slight tearing, however
that happened on my old computer and i sort of feel its just the monitor I am using at the momment
4. Minecraft: Because i use Lunar Client I had OF
enabled and i had an active FPS counter, set to
unlimited i was able to get 150FPS in a hypixel lobby on “fabulous!’ (they tend to be laggy)
5. Krunker: No issues at all, again buttery smooth
Specifications:
This mini computer has an Intel Core 15 1035G1
16GB DDR4 3200MhZ RAM
500GB Kingston SSD
All of them tied together work perfectly
For some reason when changing the BIOS settings I must have accidentally dropped the core clocks down, since that happened it caused all games to run a bit slower (including Valorant).
Now valorant runs at 1920×1200 High at 100FPS
this also made minecraft improve. I hit tops of 300+ FPS on 12 Chunks (Fabulous GFX settings) playing hypixel.
This is a really good machine at a very reasonable price.
Upon reviewing the articles. I wasn’t looking for a new computer. A surface pro i owned was overloaded so I thought I would see what other options were out there.
Really impressed so far. Ample speed for such a small unit. Plenty of usb and hdmi space for us pens, external HD or printer and 2 monitors.
I am starting up my own business from home and my office is compact sp this is an ideal size. It’s more powerful than my laptop without being cumbersome. It’s very straight forward to set up and for a small machine it’s very fast. Went onto the net quickly and easily. Plenty of storage for my needs but SD cards are have so much storage now it wouldn’t be a problem for larger use. This is a realistic price and ideal for college or university students as it’s more affordable than a lot of laptops. L
Contrariamente a quanto sta avvenendo con i telefoni, che sono sempre pi grandi
e prestanti, l’evoluzione dei computer sta prendendo la strada opposta ed i nuovi
modelli sono sempre pi eleganti e compatti, ed ecco che compaiono i mini PC, una
valida risposta alle necessit del mercato, soprattutto in ambito domestico.
Il computer mini , appunto, un computer desktop, ma di dimensioni ridotte rispetto
al classico portatile, e di ridotto non hanno solo le proporzioni, lo sono anche i
consumi energetici, questi dispositivi sono progettati, per svolgere attivit di base.
All’interno di questo mini pc Ryzen 3 3200U viene installato Windows 11 Pro, cos da
rendere veloce l’avvio e poter utilizzare qualsiasi tipo di applicazione, software, dalle
mini dimensioni cos contenute che si possa essere trasportato con facilit da un
angolo all’altro della casa o dell’ufficio.
Per quanto concerne il packaging del mini PC in oggetto una bella scatola robusta e
bella anche da riporre lo stesso mini PC, nel suo interno oltre allo stesso sono presenti
l’alimentatore, cavo HDMI corto, cavo HDMI lungo, placca e viti per il fissaggio sui
monitor e il manuale con lingua italiana, per quanto concerne l’installazione molto
semplice ed intuitivo ci basta collegare le varie periferiche che vengono riconosciute
immediatamente e si pu sin da subito cominciare a lavorare, un pc dalle buone
prestazioni per tutto quello che concerne sia per lavoro che per lo studio, per i
programmi di grafica di alto livello e per game anch’essi di alto livello non offre queste
prestazioni, ma per tutto il resto veramente soddisfacente.
Per quanto concerne il design molto elegante, infatti in alluminio leggero, il che
lo rende molto leggero pur essendo resistente, ha una gradevole ed elegante cromia,
che mi piace davvero tanto.
Dotato sul lato anteriore oltre al pulsante di accensione, connessione per cuffie con
jack da 3,5 mm, 1 porta USB di tipo C, 2 porte USB 3.1, e il foro per il reset del BIOS della
scheda madre, mentre sul lato posteriore cono presenti il connettore per l’alimentatore,
2 porte HDMI, 2 porte USB 3.1, porta di rete LAN, dotato di tecnologia Bluetooth e
Wi-Fi sia a 2.4 che 5,8 GHz, possiamo dire che considerato le due uscite video possiamo
collegare sino a 2 monitor contemporaneamente e senza problemi di tipo di connessione,
dotato di una SSD interna dalle buone prestazioni sia in lettura che scrittura, e se vogliamo
potremo aggiungere ulteriore SSD o un HDD nella parte superiore rimuovendo il coperchio
in modo semplice.
Nell’accensione ha subito riconosciuto la mia rete wireless, dopo aver messo
le credenziali stato sin da subito operativo, di una buona velocit, pensare
che non ho un buon segnale internet, si connesso e la ricerca in internet
stata veloce e fluida.
Non mi soffermo sul dettaglio dei dati tecnici, in quanto sul sito sono ben
elencati e confutabili.
Questo mini computer rappresenta un ottimo strumento di lavoro
itinerante, ma anche in ambito casalingo per tutte quelle operazioni
dove richiede pochissimo spazio visto che ha dimensioni davvero
parso davvero bello, un mini pc che piace sin da subito, appena lo
vedi con il suo bel design, non ne avevo visti mai questi mini pc, e devo
dire che ha soddisfatto le mie aspettative, tecnicamente buono e molto
performante
Wanted something to replace my old tower of a computer which runs a host of digital photo software and online distance university learning programs.
That was also a 16GB and so far this mini computer ticks all the boxes with the option of dual screening without the need for a port replicator.
Great price, 300 for a nuc of this standard is a must do if you are in the market to change to having a smaller and more compact system.
Definitely ticks all the boxes thus far after 3 weeks.
I am also going to be purchasing the option of a small mini DC adaptor too to place behind the TV so I can run it on the large living room tv as an additional option as well.
To save space on our small table we mount this onto the back of our monitor with the included metal bracket, super neat install and minimal cable management needed. The power adaptor for the PC is rated at only 56W which means we can save a lot of electricity but not having a fully built PC.
It has Microsoft window 11 pre installed, when first boot up we are greeted by the company logo boot screen follow by the welcome to windows screen for setting up the PC. Thanks to the 16GB of RAM using this PC does not feel like underpowered at all, there is no lag with the OS, windows auto update all the important fixes and all ready to use with in an hour of opening the box.
We managed to play all the games on Roblox at 1080p, Genshin Impact 1080p 30fps at low detail is ok too. Heavier AAA titles like Apex and warzone did not managed to load game as it is below their hardware requirement.
Great for work, multi media entrainment and light gaming
Our old desktop has been on its last legs for a minute, so when we got the option to try this, we jumped on it! And, actually, mini PCs are the business.
You need to accept form the jump that it’s going to have a lot of limitations – it’s amazing for what it is – the thing literally fits in the palm of your hand – but it’s not got the heft of a full-size desk-top.
We just wanted it to be able to browse the internet and answer business emails, and it’s great for that. We just hooked it up to our existing monitor and it was pretty much plug and play. It comes with Windows 11 (bear that in mind, because it says it comes with Windows 10) which you will need to set up before you use it for the first time, but it doesn’t come with lots of pre-installed bloatware, which is ace.
I should say, our needs are super basic, but it can’t handle more than 3 or 4 browser tabs at the same time; it starts to get very, very sluggish, so we’re limiting it to two open tabs at a time. If you’re wanting it for gaming, I gather you can upgrade the innards of mini PCs easily, but I daren’t even imagine, but it probably wouldn’t be able to handle anything more RAM-hungry than Pong.
So it’s limited, definitely, but it’s tiny, and it’s convenient, and it’s far, far cheaper than buying a new laptop or desktop, so if your needs are fairly basic, too, this is an excellent buy.
+ the compact size of this is amazing. Great for hiding it behind the monitor for a minimalistic setup.
+ clean design
+ plenty I/O including 4 USB ports, 2HDMIs, UsbC port
+ The 10th generation Intel i5 is very powerful
+ 16GB RAM. Can be upgraded up to maximum 64GB which is cool
+ 500GB SSD disk. Expandable option
+ Wifi and bluetooth
+ great for arcade games and light gaming use
+ suitable for watching 4k movies and office work
+ windows11 pro and very easy installation
+ price is reasonable compared to the specifications
– ventilation grills are on the sides so the PC must lay flat. You cannot put it sideways
– UsbC doesn’t support display output nor does it work for power. Only for data
Overall thoughts:
I highly recommend this PC because it is fast and the specs are great and there is option to upgrade the RAM and SSD. Bear in mind that this PC doesn’t have a separate graphic card. You can play some games like Fortnite but it is not a gamer PC.
This mini PC computer comes pre-installed with Windows 10 Pro, and is able to run the leading office suite. It will also work as a media streaming client, and could probably be used to run a media server.
It comes in a tiny, card box with an HDMI cable and a little wall-wart power supply. You’ll need a keyboard and mouse. It has WiFi and Bluetooth built in, so once you’ve set up the operating system, it’s pretty much ready to go.
It does have some limitations, so you need to understand what you are getting with this PC. Realistically, it is at the absolute bare minimum to run W10 Pro. It boots up quickly enough, and the first time you are taken through the W10 setup screens, which does take a while even if you already have a MS account. Set aside an hour to set the PC up – it’s not instant, but that’s not the computer’s fault.
With W10 up and running, I did notice that the default antivirus suite was disabled. Hmmm. I enabled it immediately, and then updated W10 to the latest version. I downloaded the files over the built-in WiFi adapter, which works really well. The connection was rock-solid throughout. I did also try the Ethernet port, which also connected instantly. The Ethernet connection to that room is over a Powerline through my house wiring, so the WiFi is actually faster and more reliable, but I was able to confirm that the Ethernet port on the PC works.
After leaving the PC overnight to sort itself out after the trauma of updating W10, I installed the MS office suite. It works perfectly, as you’d expect.
I also installed the client software for PLEX. Here, I ran into a problem, because the playback was really jittery. I had the PC plugged into a 4K TV, and that was clearly too much for it. Yes, it will display a 4K image, but it can’t playback in 4K. Changing the desktop resolution to 1080p (HD) completely solved that, and since most of my media is only DVD quality, it had no effect on the picture quality.
Interestingly, I was able to watch streamed video from both Prime and the ‘other one’ with the display set to 4K resolution without any problems, so the stuttering with PLEX might be something to do with my server settings. Nevertheless, the PC is happier set to the lower resolution, and since I only have HD accounts and media, there’s really no need for me to set it any higher.
The sound came through the HDMI cable, and was picked up by my home cinema amp, so I got good quality sound without any fiddling. That was a nice bonus.
I tried the PC streaming a game running on my gaming PC, over Steam. I got mixed results, but it did work. Just running the Steam client on its own uses around 30% of the processor’s capacity, according to the Task Manager. Add in the controller emulation, and you get significant input lag. Borderlands 2 actually ran fine, but the input lag made it unplayable. Turn-based games like Gloomhaven fared much better. I’ll install some emulation software and see how it gets on with running older console games.
Just to confirm it works, I paired my controller with the PC over Bluetooth, and it was detected instantly, paired normally and worked as it should.
So, as long as you don’t ask too much of it, this little PC works well as a streamed media client, and it runs productivity software comfortably. You can’t really use it for games, even streamed from another machine.
This would be great if you travel, and a laptop is too big, too heavy or just too expensive. Stick this in your bag. It weighs nothing and takes up very little space, even with the power supply. You can hook it up to the TV in any hotel room, and surf the internet, check your emails, do a bit of productivity, watch a movie and buy stuff online. With a cheap wireless or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, you have a portable PC for a fraction of the cost of a laptop.
It would also be useful for running an advertising display or Powerpoint presentations at a show or convention. I can also use it to run my small CNC guitar pickup winding machine.
I see no reason why you couldn’t use it as a media server, although you would need to plug in a USB hard-drive. To be honest, it’s not really the right tool for that.
One last use, which I haven’t tested yet, is running instruments and displays in a flight simulator. As it’s running W10, I can install the advanced driver software on it, connect it to my WiFi, and run the FIPs and switch panels on this machine, taking the load off my main PC.
Great for the price, runs office and streaming software.
Pleasant device , very compact and light . Compared to ap34 from the same beelink is quite a crumb . At the same time , two HDMI and four usb3 . Performance corresponds to the processor and price – ie . Almost no , everything works sluggish , the browser tupit , but for a number of applications – a network media player , a smart home server , a typewriter , etc. She’s enough . And in the light of the mad rise in the price of raspberry , such machines become relevant . In the bios there are enough settings , the main thing is setting up the start after the power loss – there is . Disk space , of course , little , it is not expanded , eMMC is not fast , about 140 MB / s reading , 100 recording . Perhaps , the main minus is a cooling fan , its sound , although not nasty , easy rustle , but alas , not so quiet , besides , its limits are not regulated . Preinstalled Win10 pro , turned out normally , license or not Xs , I will still change it . In general , if you know what you need such a machine – boldly take .
This portable computer is amazing, it works just like any normal computer would, great load time and set up, the application of this device is great for literally bringing you computer anywhere with you as your on the move, even more portable then any laptop
A mini pc was never something I had thought of getting. I used to own a desktop computer many years ago, but gradually transitioned to laptops and never looked back. However, I didn’t realise that you could get a desktop computer in such a compact, convenient size. This mini pc has blown me away, and I was utterly shocked by how good it is. It arrived well packaged in a nicely designed, presentable box. Inside, I found everything I needed to get started. You receive a power block, a HDMI cable and wall brackets should you wish to mount it. The pc itself is very light and understated, and the midnight blue colour looks very modern and smart. The pc has many ports, including two HDMI ports for dual screen capabilities and two front USB ports as well as a usb c port. The pc comes with windows 11 pre installed which I hadn’t yet used. At the touch of a button It booted up in seconds, due to the speedy core i5 processor. It didn’t take long to set up, and once it was ready to use I had lot’s of fun playing around with it. I can’t believe that such a powerful pc is packed into such a small package. I hadn’t thought about getting one before, but I now wouldn’t be without it. It works great with a wireless mouse and keyboard too, and connects easily to tv’s and computer monitors. If you are considering purchasing one of these, I would urge you to give it a go. It’s fantastic and more than worth its 5 stars.
Absolutely brilliant for my needs. Working from home in a tiny spot in a tiny room, you just want as much space as possible and this nugget of a computer is just the ticket. It’s only an Intel i5, but it’s more powerful than my current 2nd hand i7! Great memory with 16+500 and can be expanded as needed. Good number of ports, but you may wish to expand that with a docking station. Power supply and HDMI cables included in the box. I literally got it out of the box, plugged into a screen, plugged in a keyboard and mouse and it sailed through the set up with no issues. Brought over Windows 11, my Microsoft account and all set to go. So, obviously I’m using this in a work situation for all the usual Microsoft suite of programs, Teams etc etc. Haven’t used for gaming so can’t comment on that. For my needs, this is just brilliant and being from the stone age myself, it’s hard to believe a PC can be packaged so small these days!
Mini PC Windows 10 Pro Intel Celeron N3350(Up to 2.4GHz) Micro PC, Mini Desktop PC 4G
This mini PC isn’t going to play the latest graphic intensive games anytime soon obviously but what it will do, in my situation, is offer a dedicated device running Windows allowing me to have a PC purely geared to using Microsoft 365, more so Excel and Word. This boasts the following features, remember, it’s a mini-PC so try not to compare it with your gaming rig 🙂
Up to 2.5Ghz processor
64GB of internal storage
4GB of RAM
4 x USB 3.0 standard ports (Up to 5Gbps transfers)
Ethernet port 1000Mbps
2 x HDMI ports (3840x2160p)
Bluetooth Version 4.0
WiFi 2.4 or 5G
3.5mm audio out/Microphone socket
Quite a lot of features for such a small dude!
This comes supplied neatly presented keeping in with the small size of the unit. The PC neatly sits inside a cardboard tray, a thin piece of foam sits on top, underneath the PC you’ll find the power supply and an HDMI cable, a user manual is also supplied.
This user manual basically shows you where the ports are on the PC, nothing else really so is a waste of time.
Windows 10 is pre-installed. however, I was able to upgrade this to Windows 11, only after all the updates for Windows 10 had been successfully installed, so you’re talking a few hours which gives you time to set everything else up.
So my main use for this mini PC is for Microsoft office, pointless thinking about installing any games, I’ve a dedicated machine for that and in any case this PC wouldn’t really handle the games I play and if it did, by some miraculous luck, they would have to be set to the lowest of the low graphics settings, so as I said above, not worth it.
The first thing I did with this PC was initially to connect up a wired mouse and keyboard, once the PC has initially gone through the Windows set up stage I connected up my BT mouse and keyboard using the built in BT V4, this worked immediately.
Then I installed my security suite before surfing the net or downloading anything else, this is important, I used Avast Ultimate , the best suite out there in my opinion.
I then installed my Microsoft Apps and installed my cloud App, I then had my accounting files ready for me to use.
I connected the HDMI output to a 24 inch monitor, the display resolution was as advertised, I was only using one monitor so achieved maximum resolution, connecting a second monitor reduced the overall resolution for some reason, no big deal but I’m used to lower resolutions on mirrored or extended screens plus I only using this for accounting software anyway.
I do like to listen to some background music when working away and connected the audio out to my soundbar using a 3.5mm to 3.5mm stereo audio cable. I tuned into my favourite radio station on the internet and that played just fine through the speaker, the option to connect to a BT speaker is always an option.
The USB 3.0 ports worked fine, I connected my printer and an external hard drive, once the driver had installed for the printer that functioned perfectly, I was able to read /write data at fast speed on the drive. I also plugged in a portable 128GB USB memory stick in one of the spare ports to use as a back up location only.
I forgot to mention my connection to my network, I used the ethernet port, my WiFi isn’t the fastest so always opt for ethernet where possible so I can’t really comment on the WiFi functionality on this PC, the ethernet is as stated, up to 1000Mbps.
Overall I’m very impressed, priced at 139.00 with a 30 voucher currently available, this offers very good value for money and considering Windows 11 can be installed is an added bonus for me anyway, the fact that I can use word and excel with ease sells this computer to me.
Excellent first starter computer.Plug and play ,working specification, portable and lightweight design.Low energy consumption , quiet and easy to set up win 10.I like this one
This is very nice piece of tech but very limited as I just hit the 3rd brick wall with this set up I am unable to bypass due to pc hardware requirements .Still, regardless of the problem I am happy to recommend this product .Thanks.
Ottimo mini pc, nonostante il “mini” ha un sistema di ventilazione niente male e anche nelle giornate pi calde non ne risente andando in thermal throttling. Le caratteristiche sono ottime per un pc da studio/lavoro base, anche lo stream di contenuti va bene e con le 8 gb di ram e l’ssd m.2 va alla grande. Lo uso principalmente per lo studio e spesso faccio molte videoconferenze su zoom, oltre ad usarlo per navigare, guardare film e serie in streaming e, a volte, anche giocando. Ovviamente non aspettatevi chiss quanta qualit nei giochi ma giocando a full guys con le giuste impostazioni mi ci diverto senza problemi.
I’ve only had this pc a few days, but I’m very happy with it. Out of the box, and before I’ve added my own programs etc, responsiveness is excellent, web pages load almost instantly, tweaking it to my liking was simple, and importantly, getting access to the interior via the 4 small screws on the bottom and adding an SSD drive was a doddle, taking only a couple or three minutes. I think it’s good value for the performance at the price I paid, and I’m hopeful it’ll last me a few years before I need to upgrade again. I should point out, I’ve bought this for media playback, browsing and streaming, and emails. I’ve no real idea how it might function as a games pc, but I suspect you should know that isn’t it’s primary purpose. As a home pc for the above mentioned tasks, I’m rating it on first impressions as 5 stars.
Cuando recib la pequea caja pensaba que se haban equivocado ya que en mi cabeza sigo teniendo las CPU antiguas como concepto de ordenador por eso cuando recib una caja poco ms grande que la de los telfonos mviles actuales no me entraba en la cabeza que eso pudiera ser un ordenador completo y muchsimo ms potente que cualquier ordenador que haya tenido hasta la fecha.
El ordenador viene con una preinstalacin tan completa que simplemente al conectarlo y ponerle algn tipo de acceso a Internet empieza a actualizarse con las ltimas versiones y ya tendramos un ordenador completamente funcional y salvo que seas muy exigente o lo quieras para cosas muy concretas mucho ms que suficiente en tanto a capacidades para un uso domstico o incluso profesional si tienes una pequea empresa o lo quieres utilizar en tu negocio.
Viene preparado para instalarlo en cualquier dispositivo tipo detrs de una televisin o un monitor dedicado para tal fin o simplemente posado como he hecho yo en un cajn desde el que saco los cables y va a la televisin por lo que tengo un ordenador completo con una pantalla enorme y encima no se ven cables ni nada por medio.
El caso del objetivo principal era hacer una pequea red de domotizacin de la casa y centralizar en este pequeo ordenador todos los ecosistemas de los aparatos inteligentes que tengo por casa, evidentemente para ese fin sobra muchsima capacidad por lo que tambin lo he convertido en una especie de centro multimedia sper prctico.
La calidad y la capacidad de los materiales es realmente buena y en mi caso que escog el modelo de ocho gigas de memoria RAM y doscientos cincuenta y seis de capacidad es ms que suficiente para prcticamente cualquier cosa del da a da que quiera hacer, el disco duro que es lo que probablemente se pueda quedar algo corto es muy sencillamente ampliable a travs de alguno de los mltiples puertos que tiene para tal fin, soporta expansiones a travs de ranura de tarjetas o de USB de hasta dos terabytes de capacidad.
Rober puedes hasta expandir la memoria RAM a travs de las ranuras DDR4 que tiene llegando a soportar treinta y dos gigas una autntica locura.
En resumen un mini ordenador que es perfecto para la gente que sabe algo de informtica o incluso para los legos como yo que simplemente lo quieren para tener un ordenador sin complicaciones.
En casa llevamos usando un PC STICK desde hace unos 3 aos y ltimamente estaba dando fallos de drivers y los procesos se estaban relantizando conforme se va actualizando Windows y cuando vi la oportunidad de probar este mini PC no lo dud ni un segundo, adems con procesador Ryzen, el cual tena muchas ganas de probar desde hace tiempo.
No voy a entrar en detalles que podis leer en la descripcin del producto, as que voy a describir los detalles que no se pueden obtener de la descripcin.
La presentacin-embalaje del producto es de 10, todo perfectamente protegido y colocado. La caja del Mini Pc es metlica y con orificios para ayudar a la disipacin activa mediante ventilador, lo que he visto que se calienta bastante cuando est trabajando a tope, su e muy rpido la temperatura, pero tambin baja rpido cuando para el proceso. Lo que me da a entender que para procesos largos y con bastante carga de CPU, es posible que se apague para protegerse.
Viene con Windows 11 instalado y va como la seda, muy rpido y sin ningn tipo de lag.
La cantidad de puertos que trae son ms que suficientes para conectar todo tipo de perifricos, como cable de ethernet Gigabit. Adems, de tener bluetooth 4.0 un poco antiguo para m entender y Wi-Fi 5, si hubiese tenido Wi-Fi 6 hubiese sido la guinda del pastel.
Respecto a la velocidad del disco SSD es endiablada llegando a ms de 1600mb/s de lectura y 1300mb/s de escritura. En las imgenes podis observar la temperatura que alcanza mientras hace la prueba 78C.
Despus de instalar todas las actualizaciones de Windows quedan 209GB libres para nuestro uso.
Un minipc muy compacto y potente que ocupa muy poco espacio(se puede acoplar detrs de la pantalla o en la pared) valido para la mayora de las tareas.
Grazie al programma Amazon Vine ho avuto l’onore e l’onere di provare questo PC per fare una recensione obiettiva e accurata.
L’ho stressato (come si dice in gergo tecnico) per capirne i limiti e le potenzialit, rimanendone impressionato molto positivamente!
Vi invito a guardare il filmato per farvi un’idea della potenza di questo piccolo, ma potente, computer!
CONFEZIONE
Mi aspettavo un grosso case e quando mi sono ritrovato in mano la confezione sono rimasto molto sorpreso dalle dimensioni ridotte.
Nella confezione, oltre al mini PC, sono presenti:
– alimentatore;
– cavo HDMI corto;
– cavo HDMI lungo;
– placca e viti per il fisaggio sui monitor;
– manuale con lingua italiana.
Sul lato anteriore ci sono:
– il pulsante di accensione;
– il jack da 3,5 mm per le cuffie;
– 1 porta USB di tipo C;
– 2 porte USB 3.1;
– il foro per il reset del BIOS della scheda madre.
Sul lato posteriore ci sono:
– connettore per l’alimentatore;
– 2 porte HDMI;
– 2 porte USB 3.1;
– porta di rete LAN.
VENTOLE
Ai lati e sul lato posteriore sono presenti le prese d’aria per dissipare il calore.
Quando il computer ha un carico impegnativo che fa scaldare e componenti si attiva automaticamente la ventola.
Il rumore che emette non tanto.
CPU
Non mi aspettavo che un Ryzen 3 fosse cos potente!
In fase di rendering con Da Vinci Resolve (editor video potente), senza altri programmi aperti, impiega un tempo accettabile (fino al doppio in presenza di qualche effetto di transizione).
Regge e molto bene il multitasking.
Ho attivato bitlocker e non ne ha risentito.
GPU, 3D e compromessi
La scheda video basata su AMD RADEON lavora benissimo sia con Google Earth Pro (installato sul desktop) che con i videogiochi impegnativi (provato con Fortnite, Star Wars Squadron e Trackmania).
Per ottenere una buona fluidit per necessario abbassare il livello di dettaglio.
CONNESSIONI
Wi-Fi, bluetooth, ethernet.. funziona tutto e funziona alla grande.
Riesco a collegarmi, tramite Wi-Fi, all’hotspot dell’iPhone 13!
USB 3.0
Le velocit di trasferimento dati elevatissima, il massimo che si pu richiedere col protocollo.
SSD e RAM
Qui il PC d il massimo, con punte di lettura di 320 MB/s.
L’HD una vera scheggia!
WINDOWS 11 PRO
Windows 11 Pro preinstallato, l’ho configurato per assomigliare pi a Windows 10 e non ho mai avvertito rallentamenti di sorta.
CONCLUSIONI
Costa 399,99 euro mentre scrivo questa recensione.
un gioiellino e merita il massimo dei voti.

Es ideal para tener un ordenador potente a la vez que pequeo, lo recomiendo totalmente.
In passato avevo acquistato un mini-pc, ma ero rimasto molto deluso dalla lentezza e dai problemi che aveva, tanto da fare il reso. QUESTO TUTTA UN’ALTRA STORIA!
Rimane un pc con dei limiti, non adatto a tutto, ma sicuramente vi permette di
– navigare velocemente in internet
– diventare il vostro centro multimediale connesso direttamente alla TV
– usare agevolmente programmi di lavoro come Word o Excel
– divertirvi con qualche gioco semplice
I suoi limiti diventano evidenti se invece dovrete usare programmi pi pesanti, come quelli per l’editing video o la progettazione, o se vi piacciono i giochi pi elaborati. Ecco qualche informazione in pi per aiutarvi a fare la scelta giusta.
DIMENSIONI
Vero punto di forza, sono davvero mini. Circa 12 cm per lato. E con la piccola staffa in dotazione potremo installarlo direttamente dietro al monitor o alla TV.
CONNETTIVITA’
Sarebbe sufficiente dire che completa. Comunque, vi confermo la presenza del WiFi 5 e Bluetooth 4.0, entrambi stabili. Ovviamente ci sono a corredo anche 4 porte USB-A, 1 USB-C, 2 HDMI, 1 Ethernet e il jack per le cuffie. Alla prima accensione gli unici cavi che vi serviranno sono quello di alimentazione e per il video, ovviamente entrambi in dotazione (i cavi HDMI sono 2 ma uno di solo 20 cm). Tastiera e mouse li ho connessi via wireless con il loro dongle proprietario.
CONFIGURAZIONE
Windows 11 PRO preinstallato ma al primo avvio dovr essere configurato, ci vorranno quasi 15 minuti. Dopo ne serviranno altri 15 per aggiornare i vari software dal Microsoft Store (comunque sono quelli standard, non ci sono programmi bloatware). Infine, ho eseguito i vari aggiornamenti di sistema, incluso una versione di Windows. Questo ci ha impiegato un po’ di pi, circa mezzora.
Quindi, per completare il tutto ci vuole un’oretta. Un pc desktop di fascia medio/alta ci avrebbe messo di meno. L’installazione dei programmi una di quei compiti che mostrano la natura pi economica del processore, ma poi nel loro utilizzo diventa tutto pi fluido. Qui doverosa una parentesi per i pi tecnici
PROCESSORE
AMD di per s una garanzia di affidabilit e di un buon rapporto costo/prestazioni. Il Rayzen 3 la serie entry level, pi economico ma non per questo lento. Nello specifico, questo 3200U una versione appositamente progettata per laptop. Ci significa che costruito per contenere calore e consumi, a fronte di prestazioni leggermente depotenziate.
Per dare qualche dato, ha 2 core fisici + 4 virtuali (contro i 4 + 4 della versione per desktop), una frequenza di base di 2,6 GHz che in modalit turbo pu arrivare a 3,5 GHz. Ha una GPU video integrata con 2 GB di memoria e frequenza da 1,2 GHz, senza modalit turbo.
Un lato positivo che i consumi rimangono sempre molto bassi, nell’utilizzo normale oscillano tra i 10W e i 30W circa. Anche il calore contenuto e, di conseguenza, il pc poco rumoroso perch la ventilazione non lavora troppo (e comunque lateralmente ha abbondanti griglie di areazione).
MEMORIE
Per la RAM abbiamo 2 slot, di cui uno occupato da un banco da 8 GB DDR4 2400 MHz della CRUCIAL. Possiamo sia aggiungere un secondo banco uguale, che metterne 2 da 16. 32 GB il massimo supportato.
Come archiviazione abbiamo un SSD M.2 NVMe da 256 GB della KINGSTON, ma supporta fino a 2 TB. E in pi c’ lo slot per aggiungere un hard disk SSD da 2,5 pollici.
Cosa significa tutto questo? 2 cose importanti:
– il pc dotato di memorie di ottima qualit
– il pc espandibile ed anche facile farlo. sufficiente svitare 4 viti alla base, e tutto a portata di mano. In particolare, io consiglierei l’upgrade a 16 GB di RAM per migliorare la gestione multitasking o dei programmi pi pesanti.
PER CHI CONSIGLIATO
Per tutti coloro che hanno poco spazio o vogliono semplicemente mantenere pulita la scrivania. Bench un pc desktop generalmente pi potente, un mini PC pu comunque soddisfare tutte le nostre esigenze basilari. Pu anche essere perfetto come centro multimediale dietro la TV.
Fra i tanti modelli disponibili, vi suggerisco di non scegliete quelli troppo economici, con tecnologia datata o componenti di bassa qualit. Questo Rayzen 3 gi una buona scelta. Tra l’altro viene venduto nella stessa configurazione con diversi marchi, tutti con buone recensioni. Per chi poi ha bisogno di un po’ di potenza in pi, ci sono comunque le versioni con il Rayzen 5 o 7, ma ovviamente sale anche il costo. Ecco, l’ultima considerazione sul prezzo. Attualmente di 399, a mio avviso un po’ alto. Ma possibile usare un coupon e prenderlo a 343, questo mi sembra pi a fuoco. Se scendesse ancora un p sarebbe un best buy.
Spero che vi sia stato utile.

I was skeptical about how this would perform in regard to replacing a full size PC tower which was fried during a power cut.
I’m not a ‘heavy’ PC user, mainly used for browsing, music format converting and some ‘light’ gaming.
Once setup and W11 updates done, I opened multiple browser windows across my two connected monitors, ran a malware scan, downloaded apps and app updates and listened/watched some music from YouTube.
I was instantly impressed with how well it copes with this multitasking. I did play an old game (old being from approx 2000) and apart from some screen lag, it ran the game acceptably.
If you want to play the latest games online, then a dedicated gaming PC is the route to take.
For all other PC related uses, this is an ideal space saving alternative and great VFM.

Very pleasantly surprised with this PC.
I was also quite surprised that it came with Windows 11 Professional edition at the price I paid for it!
It did a great job of running Windows 11, although I didn’t use it much as I’m actually using it to run Home Assistant (via VMWare VSphere 6.7), which meant a complete reformat.
Due to the fact that the internal network card is made by Realtek (and therefore not supported by VMWare), it was a bit of a challenge to set up, and I can’t use the latest version of VSphere. However, this is a very special use scenario, so definitely does not reflect on the quality or value for money of this PC.
It runs very quietly. Despite having a fan, I can’t hear it unless i put my ear directly to the case – which is perfect for what I wanted.
Overall, I can’t recommend this enough for the price.
When I first bought this Mini PC I was having problems with the Ethernet connection as it was always disconnecting when I was trying to browse the internet
But somebody from Trigkey got in touch and helped me sort out the problem with it and is now working like a dream!
I really like the way how it works this mimi pc window 11.
It has changed completely the way my pc has worked and make it better .
It is easy to use if you have knowledge for pc but if not please read the manual before installing it so you don’t make anything wrong.
When I reviewed price was about 320 it is very expensive to be honest but knowing how good it is and the way it works probably worth .
Just hoping it will last long .
I really like the way how it works this mimi pc window 11.
It has changed completely the way my pc has worked and make it better .
It is easy to use if you have knowledge for pc but if not please read the manual before installing it so you don’t make anything wrong.
When I reviewed price was about 320 it is very expensive to be honest but knowing how good it is and the way it works probably worth .
Just hoping it will last long .
Very good product, very fast running, does not overheat, You have the possibility to interact fully with BIOS, something that not every mini-pc has. 4 stars because windows cannot find the audio drivers and the ones available on the productor’s website are not the correct ones. I solved the problem once I understood that drivers to install are Intel smart sound technology.

This is a great mini Windows PC with all the functions available on a standard desktop PC. I’m using my TV as a monitor as they got put away several years ago as we have laptops and tablets, it works great. I have a wireless keyboard and mouse which operate as expected. I also have a card reader attached for my SD & micro SD cards and a 1T external drive. It’s great to have so many ports on this tiny PC. Installation is very easy and I have no lag in any of the functions, everything opens and operates as expected. Overall this device is a brilliant space saving option which I really needed and is an excellent PC.

I wouldn’t say this is a great work horse. But those who wants a space saving, faster pc for budget friendly price range, this will be a great option when it comes with pre installed Windows 11pro.
It is equipped with 8 GB ram and 128 GB SSD which boosts the speed greatly.
Dual band WiFi and connectivity with Bluetooth is great to tether with desired devices.
The box came with a power supply adapter and an HDMI cable with limited length. The length is sufficient for most of the cases.
Overall, I’m totally satisfied with the products usage and recommend it.

Wow this is a well good unit and perfect for the projector in my room. Currently I’ve been connecting my laptop to it so I can stream from online but this has made it much smarter! The little hub is so compact it actually sits behind my projector on its mount and now I’ve just connected a wireless voice controller which sits on my bedside table. It’s basically a tiny computer so you can literally do anything you could on a normal. It seems to be pretty speedy, running windows and has a good hard drive size. I’ve managed to install my streaming software and quick links to the likes of Netflix and prime video. No more lag and perfect! Makes my bedroom look a lot more smarter for sure! Great for people who travel for work too, this literally takes up no space at all.

This mini PC is a little gem. I wasn’t sure what to expect but I am not disappointed. Nice and easy to set up. Perfect for normal everyday tasks, email, surfing the web etc. It is so small but it’s perfect if space is an issue.
Being able to attach two monitors is a massive plus.
Being fan-cooled is a bonus as not all mini PCs have them.
The expandable storage is great
It arrives in eco-friendly packaging and includes the power supply, the mini-computer itself and an HDMI cable. The HDMI cable isn’t massively long but is adequate.
Overall very impressed.

This review is for the Mini PC Windows 11 Pro, TRIGKEY.
A great little device, works really well and exactly what I needed. It’s not the most powerful machine in the world but you would not expect it to be at this price. Has a number of ports for connectivity. Would recommend!

Have to say I were a little sceptical going for something so small.
Got it for my sons birthday as his other pc waa getting on a bit and started to struggle with the games he were playing etc.
He as told me this plays them with ease and is fast online as well.
He is very pleased with it which makes me very pleased.
Don’t be fooled by the size seems to come to mind lol.
Great product for the price!
This is a really smaller than expected and just what we wanted to use at our caravan as space there is limited. It’s ideal for the kids to play games on and it’s also great for watching videos through and connecting to Prime Video whilst at the caravan I know it does a lot more but so far this is all we’ve used it for and we are very happy with it.
I used to think that all Mini PCs are not powerful, but for a couple of years I have seen a few good ones like this one.
This is a powerful PC with its AMD Ryzen 7 5700U APU ,which happens to be 8 CORE, 16 Thread CPU with integrated GPU.
The CPU is really fast and things like multitasking that includes light gaming and 4K videos, is not a problem for it.
The integrated GPU is pretty good so everything that doesn’t need massive dedicated GPU with work well.
I was surprised to see that even many games are working well with this integrated GPU.
The PC comes with 32GB DDR4 RAM ,which again is great for multitasking.
The mini PC is perfect for a standard home or light business user.
The PC comes with 500GB NVMe SSD ,which makes this PC even faster.
Fast start up and fast loading of apps is what you will notice and it is easy to get used to a fast computer like this.
The PC supports adding an extra 2.5″ SSD ,but I personally don’t need anything added.
There is always an option to use external SSD and I prefer doing so.
There is a USB Type-C port and I use this for my external SSDs.
You can use the Type-C port for video as well and there are also DP and HDMI ports that can be used for video.
This means that you can get up to 3x screens and use them at once.
I personally haven’t tried 3x 4K screens and if this will work ,but in most cases I will need only 2 screens that are not even 4K.
The PC has a dual band WiFi 6 ,which is way better than the old WiFi 5 that you get with most other PCs.
The Bluetooth 5.2 keeps stable connection and works well.
There is also 1Gbps LAN port that you can use for wired connection.
Overall great little PC that works better that many in bigger cases.
Hopefully my review was Helpful for you.
Firstly I was impressed by the size of this pc. It so small that you can set it up in a very small space. Its 6-core/12-thread configuration with a clock speed of up to 4.0GHz ensures robust performance, suitable for a variety of computing tasks. The inclusion of 16GB DDR4 RAM and a 1TB NVMe SSD contributes to swift multitasking and responsive storage access.
The triple-screen 4K output capability, supporting DP, HDMI, and Type-C, enhances the versatility of this mini PC, catering to users with diverse display preferences. The integration of WiFi-6 and Bluetooth 5.2 ensures high-speed wireless connectivity and seamless peripheral pairing.
Additionally, the inclusion of 1000M LAN, Wake-on-LAN, and Auto Power On features reflects a thoughtful design for enhanced network management and user convenience. These attributes position the TRIGKEY Mini PC as a reliable solution for both home and office environments.
While the hardware specifications are robust, it would be beneficial for prospective buyers to consider their specific use cases to determine if the configuration aligns with their performance requirements. Overall, the TRIGKEY Mini PC stands out as a competitive option in the mini computer market, offering a well balanced combination of performance, connectivity, and convenience features.
Firstly it should be noted the possibility of RAM and storage expansion of the TRIGKEY Speed S5 and its good connectivity options, where the Wi-Fi 6 wireless adapter stands out. A good mini PC that is at a good price.
In this version of the mini PC TRIGKEY Speed S5 includes a powerful AMD Ryzen 5 5560U processor manufactured in 7nm. A chip that has six Zen 2 CPU cores with 12 threads with a speed up to 4 GHz. In the graphics section we have a Radeon RX Vega 7 GPU that allows us to play demanding games with the appropriate settings.
Inside its box I have 16 GB of RAM 3200 MHz Dual Channel installed in its 2 SODIMM slots. For storage, I find an SSD M.2 NVMe 2280 500 GB / 1 TB and space for a 2.5-inch storage unit with SATA3 interface.
In the connectivity section I have an internal M.2 card installed with Wi-Fi 6 Bluetooth 5.2 and a 1000 Mbps Ethernet port. As connectors, I find distributed between its front and rear three USB 3.0 ports, a USB 2.0, 3.5 mm audio jack and video outputs USB Type-C 3.2, HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.2, the 3 ports capable of resolutions up to 4K@60Hz.
The operating system installed on the TRIGKEY Speed S5 is Windows 11 Pro, but I can install Linux if I want. Windows works fine for my personal requirements though. By default, I have a small external power supply and VESA support for hanging behind the monitor.
All in all considering the small size of this PC it packs a punch in terms of overall capabilities and the price point is well worth it.
I like having a space saving option that doesn’t skimp on internal features.
When the box arrived I couldn’t believe how small it was, but the actual mini-computer was actually half the box, which amazed me further. Inside the box was a usb and hdmi cable, so that you could connect extra devices/monitors. There was also the power cable, some screws (maybe as replacements), and a small instruction manual. The actual mini-computer was protected by a plastic cover that was easy to remove with no damage.
Upon setting up the computer, one thing to not is the placement of the power socket. It’s at the back, as to be expected but it’s also next to the hdmi port. Not a problem, but as my monitor was dvi, I had to use an adapter to convert to hdmi, but when plugging that in, the power cable could not be inserted. I got round this by using an external docking station that has the hdmi slot already.
In fact, a docking station is one thing I suggest to have, as due to size of the computer, there are only a few ports, so if you have multiple devices, just use a docking station.
That being said, it also can be wired to the router or even use wireless, which was the way I connected. After Windows installed, very quick, I honestly didn’t even know it was on, if the monitor was off. Silent? Yes. Hardly any sound at all on basic use.
I did a benchmark, and it came back with a score of 82% based on other identical setups, which is fantastic for everyday use. As others have said, if gaming, maybe opt for less graphic intense games, and go for the emulator type, or games that have no immense power, like hidden object. Later games do work, but it’s not a mini-gaming computer.
Overall, a very good min-computer, silent, small, and works very well. I highly recommend this.
I’m honestly a little shocked at how well this mini PC runs. I expected this to be just your base PC, allowing you to carry out miscellaneous office tasks like working on documents, browsing and watching videos.
However, with the way technology is now, with small devices like the Steam deck and the ROG Ally, I thought I’d try my luck playing some games.
Obviously the settings you can run at decent frames will be less compared to a dedicated setup, but I managed to play comfortably at 1080p for most games. For this price, I am quite impressed. As one mentioned, higher settings for the new games won’t be possible, but I managed to install genshin impact (albeit painfully slowly) and play it comfortably, whatever the stock settings were (1080p low settings if I recall correctly).
As you’d expect from something running Windows, the fans do like to ramp up seemingly at random times, but when playing games or on load, I didn’t notice much additional noise, which is great (or the PC never felt like it needed more cooling). The fans also don’t sound whiny, which is a huge plus in my books.
Other than that, you get the standard Windows operating system and works as expected, except for the trigkey logo during boot (which got me worried for a split second until I realised it was the logo – it’s different from the more mainstream minimalist logos haha).
I have also been lucky enough to review a similar unit under the Nuc branding. They are similar sizes, and although the Nuc was an older unit, it felt comparably slower than this unit. One thing I don’t like about this unit is the build; whereas the Nuc was metal, this feels like cheap plastic. That said, I like the lit power button and the fact that you get a USB-C and two USB-A ports on the front. You get more USB ports on the back, too.
I originally intended this to be used as a mini station for a TV (light games, streaming etc…), but honestly, I think this is more than good enough as a backup PC, and will do just fine for most home users. I would happily recommend this product.
I’m really pleased with the Trigkey mini pc.
I like the size of it, it’s small, compact and can be put almost anywhere along side your displays, it also comes with a mounting bracket if you want to attach it to the back of your display, it also comes with some small parts to add a 2.5 ssd/hdd which there’s room inside the pc for.
The pc on the front has x2 usb 3.2, usb type c, headphones jack and the power button, on the back is another usb 3.2, a usb 2.0, display port, lan port and a Hdmi so enough for peripherals.
When I first booted it I expected a Linux OS but was surprised to find Windows 11 pre installed which updated seamlessly along with the Amd drivers, a nice bonus.
It has 16gb DDR4 ram (x2 8gb) a 500 NVMe ssd with an AMD Ryzen 5 5560U processor.
It runs windows 11 with no issues, it runs well doing everyday tasks like streaming media, office or word and multitasking is handled easily.
I also tried some light gaming on windows which on low/medium settings run very well and the fan noise is quite with the TDP being 15W.
I also tried some emulation through Linux and I think this is where I found this mini pc to shine, I can upscale most of my old games to 1080p or more easily without any performance drops, I think this processor handles retro gaming really well with some minor tweaking, really happy that I can bump up the resolution without taking any hits in frame rates.
For the price this is a decent compact little mini pc that can do everyday computing, light gaming or Emulation very well.
This is a very capable little mini-PC. I primarily got it to run as an emulation station and it does all of that easily, right up to the most modern emulators. I then decided to have a go with modern games and this even plays most of them perfectly fine at 1080p resolutions. It did start to chug on really new AAA games at 4k, but even they ran reasonably well at 1080. I probably wouldn’t recommend it if you wanted it especially for modern gaming at 4k, it was definitely more of a test when I ran them, but for emulation and even a lot of indie, or “almost” modern games, especially at 1080, this is perfectly well fine. If you’re looking at this for anything else, this will run it fine. As an office type PC, running an office suite of some sort, this will run without any hitches whatsoever. Video and audio editing etc. is a little tougher, but again, I messed with some of the adobe tools and had no problems at all and edited a whole podcast episode on it just to see how it would handle it compared to my normal work computer and this was just fine. If you are thinking of using this as a media server then this will do it no problem. To be honest, I am kind of impressed at how good these mini-PCs are getting these days and I can’t see it being too long before full fledged desktop PCs will be only used by enthusiasts, if we’re not there already.
The PC itself is impressive. Both the RAM and SSD are good brands and expandable to a fairly impressive level. Max SSD you can install is 2TB which is a fair amount and if you need more, you can attach a USB drive happily. Im overall seriously impressed by this little box and there is very little to complain about. I guess it does look a little bit cheap with the plastic case etc. but then at this price, I’m not sure I would want them wasting money on cases rather than keeping the quality components. I’m not sure about drivers and reinstalling windows on it, but it shouldn’t cause too much problems as these exact PCs are quite popular and there is a fair amount of unofficial support around the internet on them, so that’s great. Really excellent value and a solid little PC that would take care of most projects you can throw at it.
The size is around 13x11x4.5cm. On the front is a power switch, two USB-A ports, a USB-C port, and a headphone socket. On the rear are HDMI, DisplayPort, ethernet, two more USB-A ports, and a power socket. The power supply is external. There is 16GB RAM, shared between main memory and GPU, which means by default there is 12.9 GB available for Windows. Upgrading is possible, with the system supporting up to 64GB RAM and 2TB SSD.
If you want to run three screens, you will need HDMI, DisplayPort and USB-C connections.
In the box alongside the mini PC and the power supply there are two HDMI cables, one of which is a short one designed for when the PC is mounted to the back of a display, a mounting bracket, and some screws. There is also a small ribbon connector for connecting an internal SATA hard drive, for which instructions are supplied.
I unscrewed the bottom cover to take a look. A micro screwdriver is required but removal is straightforward, though note that there is a ribbon connector between the bottom cover and the mini PC so care is needed.
Once opened I could see a neat construction with two 8GB Crucial RAM modules installed in the two available slots, and a 512GB M2 2280 NVME SSD drive. There is also a case for mounting a 2.5″ hard drive though only a slim drive will fit.
I closed the mini PC back up, connected a display, keyboard and mouse, and turned it on. This is where things get a little odd. I had actually expected the mini PC to come without an operating system, but in fact Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed. First though I was confronted with a screen entitled License Agreement, though it is not terms and conditions. Rather, it says that “Your use of the software is subject to the terms and conditions of the license agreement by which you acquired this software.” Which software? Windows I presume. But it goes on to say, “If you are a volume license customer, use of this software is subject to your volume license agreement. You may not use this software if you have not validly acquired a license for the software from Microsoft or its licensed distributors.”
Most buyers would probably assume that they acquired the license by buying the mini PC, but I am doubtful, because Windows is installed with a volume MAK (Multiple Activation Key) and not the usual OEM or retail license. There is no Windows license sticker on the mini PC. Windows does activate and runs fine so far, but this is not usual for a PC bundled with Windows, as MAK keys are normally used by enterprises with volume license agreements, not by vendors selling PCs with Windows who should use an OEM license. If you want to be sure you are correctly licensed, I suggest buying Window separately or running Linux.
Leaving that aside, the mini PC is great. I ran Geekbench 6 and got a score of 1731 for single core and 6403 for multi core, which is actually better than my old gaming PC. The GPU OpenCL score is 11770, many times lower than my gaming PC, but that is to be expected. The performance of this little PC is really good for most tasks, such as running Microsoft Office or even doing software development, and it will only disappoint for games or other applications which stress the GPU.
The processor is AMD Ryzen 5 5560U with 6 cores and 12 threads. It is set to 15w TPD (Thermal Design Power). A CPU fan is installed but it runs quietly and in my study is not really audible at all. Hardware virtualization is supported and one of the first things I did was to install WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) which runs great.
This PC is fast and powerful enough to perform well for most users and I am delighted with it.
I have this as a desktop PC connected to a sound system and a TV. It easily handles video streaming, music, general browsing, photo editing and other general home computing. It is virtually silent and is easy to hide out of the way. Good value for money.
Quite amazing at how good this is, I expected it to be a little slow with delays in mouse clicks etc but it’s not, it’s very good. I needed to run some unique software and I was concerned about if this was some sort of stopped OS but it’s a normal Win10 and my software and drivers work as normal.
I’ve also run some resource heavy programs thinking I’d get a delay or even case the OS to crash but it ran them with no issues.
We didn’t really have room in our house for a PC at the minute, we don’t really use it for gaming, but this is ideal for web browsing et cetera. It is a really small Device, we have a mouse and keyboard that we use with it and it takes no room up in her house because it’s already on the TV really good inventio
Nice little machine, had this for about four weeks and run two monitors from it. No issues at all. I use it for simple internet stuff and it’s fast and efficent. Fan slighly noisy but no longer notice the noise! Recommended
There was not a lot to dislike. Its perfect for asmall work space and powerful enough to run a home office
Step by step set up. I added an account without a Microsoft account to isolate the OneDrive synch. Otherwise once I get used to Win 11, I think I’ll like it. I took out the year warranty.
Just got and connected up. Works well straight out the box
Still waiting for outcome after using big applications
I was looking for a lower power PC to be on all day as my desktop uses a lot of power.
Looking at the specs, this PC ha low power consumption but has reasonable performance – it probably won’t play the latest PC games but it easily handles YouTube videos and some light video processing.
I booted Windows 11 long enough to confirm operation but quickly replaced that with Xubuntu 22.04 LTS.
Everything works out of the box with no problems apart from the known issues with the latest Xubuntu, nothing to do with the PC.
It is also quiet in operation with some fan noise that tends to come on and off at short intervals.
The CPU temperature sits around 40C-50C and only gets higher when pushed hard. The cooling system seems to well up to the task.
All in all, a very good, low power PC that will easily handle day to day tasks.
This is completely new to me but it’s just a fantastic edition to the home computer network. I’m used to using macs and this was just as easy a setup. Just plug it in and turn it on. Everything else was easy!
The computer is powerful enough to do daily tasks like excels and word documents but it’s not a gaming computer. It will just lag.
It’s quite expensive too considering I’ve not heard of the brand so without long term testing I won’t know how it really holds up. But for a first computer or for children starting out, it’s easier to get this than a full desktop which can take up twice as much room.
First PC bued just for test. Tested on CPU crash test 20h – pass perfectly PC it was just worm.
Now have 4 bued for CCTV monitoring, 1 for access control.
I have been using this little computer as a streaming device for the tv and to allow me to use email etc
The main things set up on it are the standard Google infrastructure allowing me access to my music, pictures and drive . Tidal for music streaming and BBC I player etc for tv streaming
The computer is pretty fast it does everything asked of it and it’s a really small form factor, I mounted it on the tv stand and all the cables are hidden . I can use it for zoom or teams calling via a 3rd party camera .
Setting up was easy , it runs windows 11 and the interphase is easy to get used to. I have placed all the main programs I use on the desktop which allows any member of the family to access any service without difficulty
The Wi-Fi router if you use one needs to be fairly near the computer for a good connection , I am using a 4g router with it which can be a bit glitchy in the evenings but the computer seems absolutely great , it has given us access that we never had in the living room and has come in very handy for family zoom calls and background music etc
Top value powerful computer easy to set up highly recommended
It is really small in small around 10cm*10cm*2cm, so the newest Galaxy Fold 4 is actually bigger than this in size.
This PC comes pre-installed with Win11 (not Win10 as stated).
This device works really well with just using simple applications like spreadsheets, presentations and obviously the word documents.
Surfing the web also works pretty smoothy.
Supports watching videos from online streams, but gets heated up over a period of time.
Comes with 4 usb ports and 2 hdmi ports which is very good!
Overall if you just use it for simple office applications, it works like a miracle, but nothing more.
This is an absolutely brilliant mini computer that’s available at a very reasonable price of 359 (after adding the 80 voucher).
We’ve had this mini computer for around four weeks now. The computer came nicely packed in a cardboard box. It also had 2 HDMI connectors and a VESA bracket (with screws) included in the box.
My thirteen year old son has been the main user of this mini computer. So most of the opinions will be his.
The initial start up was a bit slow but from the second time onwards no problems at all.
After tweaking the BIOS (del key) I disabled Speedstep technology for higher clock speeds. I also increased the fan curve, so I could a lot more fps in games.
A few of the games we tried:
1: Terraria: ran buttery smooth, not a single hitch (Had
discord and video playing as well)
2: Valorant: Very stuttery for some reason, I dont think it likes DX12, I had discord open only)
3. Geometry Dash: there was slight tearing, however
that happened on my old computer and i sort of feel its just the monitor I am using at the momment
4. Minecraft: Because i use Lunar Client I had OF
enabled and i had an active FPS counter, set to
unlimited i was able to get 150FPS in a hypixel lobby on “fabulous!’ (they tend to be laggy)
5. Krunker: No issues at all, again buttery smooth
Specifications:
This mini computer has an Intel Core 15 1035G1
16GB DDR4 3200MhZ RAM
500GB Kingston SSD
All of them tied together work perfectly
For some reason when changing the BIOS settings I must have accidentally dropped the core clocks down, since that happened it caused all games to run a bit slower (including Valorant).
Now valorant runs at 1920×1200 High at 100FPS
this also made minecraft improve. I hit tops of 300+ FPS on 12 Chunks (Fabulous GFX settings) playing hypixel.
This is a really good machine at a very reasonable price.
Upon reviewing the articles. I wasn’t looking for a new computer. A surface pro i owned was overloaded so I thought I would see what other options were out there.
Really impressed so far. Ample speed for such a small unit. Plenty of usb and hdmi space for us pens, external HD or printer and 2 monitors.
Easy to set up. Lovely.
I am starting up my own business from home and my office is compact sp this is an ideal size. It’s more powerful than my laptop without being cumbersome. It’s very straight forward to set up and for a small machine it’s very fast. Went onto the net quickly and easily. Plenty of storage for my needs but SD cards are have so much storage now it wouldn’t be a problem for larger use. This is a realistic price and ideal for college or university students as it’s more affordable than a lot of laptops. L
Contrariamente a quanto sta avvenendo con i telefoni, che sono sempre pi grandi
e prestanti, l’evoluzione dei computer sta prendendo la strada opposta ed i nuovi
modelli sono sempre pi eleganti e compatti, ed ecco che compaiono i mini PC, una
valida risposta alle necessit del mercato, soprattutto in ambito domestico.
Il computer mini , appunto, un computer desktop, ma di dimensioni ridotte rispetto
al classico portatile, e di ridotto non hanno solo le proporzioni, lo sono anche i
consumi energetici, questi dispositivi sono progettati, per svolgere attivit di base.
All’interno di questo mini pc Ryzen 3 3200U viene installato Windows 11 Pro, cos da
rendere veloce l’avvio e poter utilizzare qualsiasi tipo di applicazione, software, dalle
mini dimensioni cos contenute che si possa essere trasportato con facilit da un
angolo all’altro della casa o dell’ufficio.
Per quanto concerne il packaging del mini PC in oggetto una bella scatola robusta e
bella anche da riporre lo stesso mini PC, nel suo interno oltre allo stesso sono presenti
l’alimentatore, cavo HDMI corto, cavo HDMI lungo, placca e viti per il fissaggio sui
monitor e il manuale con lingua italiana, per quanto concerne l’installazione molto
semplice ed intuitivo ci basta collegare le varie periferiche che vengono riconosciute
immediatamente e si pu sin da subito cominciare a lavorare, un pc dalle buone
prestazioni per tutto quello che concerne sia per lavoro che per lo studio, per i
programmi di grafica di alto livello e per game anch’essi di alto livello non offre queste
prestazioni, ma per tutto il resto veramente soddisfacente.
Per quanto concerne il design molto elegante, infatti in alluminio leggero, il che
lo rende molto leggero pur essendo resistente, ha una gradevole ed elegante cromia,
che mi piace davvero tanto.
Dotato sul lato anteriore oltre al pulsante di accensione, connessione per cuffie con
jack da 3,5 mm, 1 porta USB di tipo C, 2 porte USB 3.1, e il foro per il reset del BIOS della
scheda madre, mentre sul lato posteriore cono presenti il connettore per l’alimentatore,
2 porte HDMI, 2 porte USB 3.1, porta di rete LAN, dotato di tecnologia Bluetooth e
Wi-Fi sia a 2.4 che 5,8 GHz, possiamo dire che considerato le due uscite video possiamo
collegare sino a 2 monitor contemporaneamente e senza problemi di tipo di connessione,
dotato di una SSD interna dalle buone prestazioni sia in lettura che scrittura, e se vogliamo
potremo aggiungere ulteriore SSD o un HDD nella parte superiore rimuovendo il coperchio
in modo semplice.
Nell’accensione ha subito riconosciuto la mia rete wireless, dopo aver messo
le credenziali stato sin da subito operativo, di una buona velocit, pensare
che non ho un buon segnale internet, si connesso e la ricerca in internet
stata veloce e fluida.
Non mi soffermo sul dettaglio dei dati tecnici, in quanto sul sito sono ben
elencati e confutabili.
Questo mini computer rappresenta un ottimo strumento di lavoro
itinerante, ma anche in ambito casalingo per tutte quelle operazioni
dove richiede pochissimo spazio visto che ha dimensioni davvero
parso davvero bello, un mini pc che piace sin da subito, appena lo
vedi con il suo bel design, non ne avevo visti mai questi mini pc, e devo
dire che ha soddisfatto le mie aspettative, tecnicamente buono e molto
performante
Wanted something to replace my old tower of a computer which runs a host of digital photo software and online distance university learning programs.
That was also a 16GB and so far this mini computer ticks all the boxes with the option of dual screening without the need for a port replicator.
Great price, 300 for a nuc of this standard is a must do if you are in the market to change to having a smaller and more compact system.
Definitely ticks all the boxes thus far after 3 weeks.
I am also going to be purchasing the option of a small mini DC adaptor too to place behind the TV so I can run it on the large living room tv as an additional option as well.
To save space on our small table we mount this onto the back of our monitor with the included metal bracket, super neat install and minimal cable management needed. The power adaptor for the PC is rated at only 56W which means we can save a lot of electricity but not having a fully built PC.
It has Microsoft window 11 pre installed, when first boot up we are greeted by the company logo boot screen follow by the welcome to windows screen for setting up the PC. Thanks to the 16GB of RAM using this PC does not feel like underpowered at all, there is no lag with the OS, windows auto update all the important fixes and all ready to use with in an hour of opening the box.
We managed to play all the games on Roblox at 1080p, Genshin Impact 1080p 30fps at low detail is ok too. Heavier AAA titles like Apex and warzone did not managed to load game as it is below their hardware requirement.
You need to accept form the jump that it’s going to have a lot of limitations – it’s amazing for what it is – the thing literally fits in the palm of your hand – but it’s not got the heft of a full-size desk-top.
We just wanted it to be able to browse the internet and answer business emails, and it’s great for that. We just hooked it up to our existing monitor and it was pretty much plug and play. It comes with Windows 11 (bear that in mind, because it says it comes with Windows 10) which you will need to set up before you use it for the first time, but it doesn’t come with lots of pre-installed bloatware, which is ace.
I should say, our needs are super basic, but it can’t handle more than 3 or 4 browser tabs at the same time; it starts to get very, very sluggish, so we’re limiting it to two open tabs at a time. If you’re wanting it for gaming, I gather you can upgrade the innards of mini PCs easily, but I daren’t even imagine, but it probably wouldn’t be able to handle anything more RAM-hungry than Pong.
So it’s limited, definitely, but it’s tiny, and it’s convenient, and it’s far, far cheaper than buying a new laptop or desktop, so if your needs are fairly basic, too, this is an excellent buy.
+ the compact size of this is amazing. Great for hiding it behind the monitor for a minimalistic setup.
+ clean design
+ plenty I/O including 4 USB ports, 2HDMIs, UsbC port
+ The 10th generation Intel i5 is very powerful
+ 16GB RAM. Can be upgraded up to maximum 64GB which is cool
+ 500GB SSD disk. Expandable option
+ Wifi and bluetooth
+ great for arcade games and light gaming use
+ suitable for watching 4k movies and office work
+ windows11 pro and very easy installation
+ price is reasonable compared to the specifications
– ventilation grills are on the sides so the PC must lay flat. You cannot put it sideways
– UsbC doesn’t support display output nor does it work for power. Only for data
Overall thoughts:
I highly recommend this PC because it is fast and the specs are great and there is option to upgrade the RAM and SSD. Bear in mind that this PC doesn’t have a separate graphic card. You can play some games like Fortnite but it is not a gamer PC.
This mini PC computer comes pre-installed with Windows 10 Pro, and is able to run the leading office suite. It will also work as a media streaming client, and could probably be used to run a media server.
It comes in a tiny, card box with an HDMI cable and a little wall-wart power supply. You’ll need a keyboard and mouse. It has WiFi and Bluetooth built in, so once you’ve set up the operating system, it’s pretty much ready to go.
It does have some limitations, so you need to understand what you are getting with this PC. Realistically, it is at the absolute bare minimum to run W10 Pro. It boots up quickly enough, and the first time you are taken through the W10 setup screens, which does take a while even if you already have a MS account. Set aside an hour to set the PC up – it’s not instant, but that’s not the computer’s fault.
With W10 up and running, I did notice that the default antivirus suite was disabled. Hmmm. I enabled it immediately, and then updated W10 to the latest version. I downloaded the files over the built-in WiFi adapter, which works really well. The connection was rock-solid throughout. I did also try the Ethernet port, which also connected instantly. The Ethernet connection to that room is over a Powerline through my house wiring, so the WiFi is actually faster and more reliable, but I was able to confirm that the Ethernet port on the PC works.
After leaving the PC overnight to sort itself out after the trauma of updating W10, I installed the MS office suite. It works perfectly, as you’d expect.
I also installed the client software for PLEX. Here, I ran into a problem, because the playback was really jittery. I had the PC plugged into a 4K TV, and that was clearly too much for it. Yes, it will display a 4K image, but it can’t playback in 4K. Changing the desktop resolution to 1080p (HD) completely solved that, and since most of my media is only DVD quality, it had no effect on the picture quality.
Interestingly, I was able to watch streamed video from both Prime and the ‘other one’ with the display set to 4K resolution without any problems, so the stuttering with PLEX might be something to do with my server settings. Nevertheless, the PC is happier set to the lower resolution, and since I only have HD accounts and media, there’s really no need for me to set it any higher.
The sound came through the HDMI cable, and was picked up by my home cinema amp, so I got good quality sound without any fiddling. That was a nice bonus.
I tried the PC streaming a game running on my gaming PC, over Steam. I got mixed results, but it did work. Just running the Steam client on its own uses around 30% of the processor’s capacity, according to the Task Manager. Add in the controller emulation, and you get significant input lag. Borderlands 2 actually ran fine, but the input lag made it unplayable. Turn-based games like Gloomhaven fared much better. I’ll install some emulation software and see how it gets on with running older console games.
Just to confirm it works, I paired my controller with the PC over Bluetooth, and it was detected instantly, paired normally and worked as it should.
So, as long as you don’t ask too much of it, this little PC works well as a streamed media client, and it runs productivity software comfortably. You can’t really use it for games, even streamed from another machine.
This would be great if you travel, and a laptop is too big, too heavy or just too expensive. Stick this in your bag. It weighs nothing and takes up very little space, even with the power supply. You can hook it up to the TV in any hotel room, and surf the internet, check your emails, do a bit of productivity, watch a movie and buy stuff online. With a cheap wireless or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, you have a portable PC for a fraction of the cost of a laptop.
It would also be useful for running an advertising display or Powerpoint presentations at a show or convention. I can also use it to run my small CNC guitar pickup winding machine.
I see no reason why you couldn’t use it as a media server, although you would need to plug in a USB hard-drive. To be honest, it’s not really the right tool for that.
One last use, which I haven’t tested yet, is running instruments and displays in a flight simulator. As it’s running W10, I can install the advanced driver software on it, connect it to my WiFi, and run the FIPs and switch panels on this machine, taking the load off my main PC.
This portable computer is amazing, it works just like any normal computer would, great load time and set up, the application of this device is great for literally bringing you computer anywhere with you as your on the move, even more portable then any laptop
A mini pc was never something I had thought of getting. I used to own a desktop computer many years ago, but gradually transitioned to laptops and never looked back. However, I didn’t realise that you could get a desktop computer in such a compact, convenient size. This mini pc has blown me away, and I was utterly shocked by how good it is. It arrived well packaged in a nicely designed, presentable box. Inside, I found everything I needed to get started. You receive a power block, a HDMI cable and wall brackets should you wish to mount it. The pc itself is very light and understated, and the midnight blue colour looks very modern and smart. The pc has many ports, including two HDMI ports for dual screen capabilities and two front USB ports as well as a usb c port. The pc comes with windows 11 pre installed which I hadn’t yet used. At the touch of a button It booted up in seconds, due to the speedy core i5 processor. It didn’t take long to set up, and once it was ready to use I had lot’s of fun playing around with it. I can’t believe that such a powerful pc is packed into such a small package. I hadn’t thought about getting one before, but I now wouldn’t be without it. It works great with a wireless mouse and keyboard too, and connects easily to tv’s and computer monitors. If you are considering purchasing one of these, I would urge you to give it a go. It’s fantastic and more than worth its 5 stars.
Absolutely brilliant for my needs. Working from home in a tiny spot in a tiny room, you just want as much space as possible and this nugget of a computer is just the ticket. It’s only an Intel i5, but it’s more powerful than my current 2nd hand i7! Great memory with 16+500 and can be expanded as needed. Good number of ports, but you may wish to expand that with a docking station. Power supply and HDMI cables included in the box. I literally got it out of the box, plugged into a screen, plugged in a keyboard and mouse and it sailed through the set up with no issues. Brought over Windows 11, my Microsoft account and all set to go. So, obviously I’m using this in a work situation for all the usual Microsoft suite of programs, Teams etc etc. Haven’t used for gaming so can’t comment on that. For my needs, this is just brilliant and being from the stone age myself, it’s hard to believe a PC can be packaged so small these days!
This mini PC isn’t going to play the latest graphic intensive games anytime soon obviously but what it will do, in my situation, is offer a dedicated device running Windows allowing me to have a PC purely geared to using Microsoft 365, more so Excel and Word. This boasts the following features, remember, it’s a mini-PC so try not to compare it with your gaming rig 🙂
Up to 2.5Ghz processor
64GB of internal storage
4GB of RAM
4 x USB 3.0 standard ports (Up to 5Gbps transfers)
Ethernet port 1000Mbps
2 x HDMI ports (3840x2160p)
Bluetooth Version 4.0
WiFi 2.4 or 5G
3.5mm audio out/Microphone socket
Quite a lot of features for such a small dude!
This comes supplied neatly presented keeping in with the small size of the unit. The PC neatly sits inside a cardboard tray, a thin piece of foam sits on top, underneath the PC you’ll find the power supply and an HDMI cable, a user manual is also supplied.
This user manual basically shows you where the ports are on the PC, nothing else really so is a waste of time.
Windows 10 is pre-installed. however, I was able to upgrade this to Windows 11, only after all the updates for Windows 10 had been successfully installed, so you’re talking a few hours which gives you time to set everything else up.
So my main use for this mini PC is for Microsoft office, pointless thinking about installing any games, I’ve a dedicated machine for that and in any case this PC wouldn’t really handle the games I play and if it did, by some miraculous luck, they would have to be set to the lowest of the low graphics settings, so as I said above, not worth it.
The first thing I did with this PC was initially to connect up a wired mouse and keyboard, once the PC has initially gone through the Windows set up stage I connected up my BT mouse and keyboard using the built in BT V4, this worked immediately.
Then I installed my security suite before surfing the net or downloading anything else, this is important, I used Avast Ultimate , the best suite out there in my opinion.
I then installed my Microsoft Apps and installed my cloud App, I then had my accounting files ready for me to use.
I connected the HDMI output to a 24 inch monitor, the display resolution was as advertised, I was only using one monitor so achieved maximum resolution, connecting a second monitor reduced the overall resolution for some reason, no big deal but I’m used to lower resolutions on mirrored or extended screens plus I only using this for accounting software anyway.
I do like to listen to some background music when working away and connected the audio out to my soundbar using a 3.5mm to 3.5mm stereo audio cable. I tuned into my favourite radio station on the internet and that played just fine through the speaker, the option to connect to a BT speaker is always an option.
The USB 3.0 ports worked fine, I connected my printer and an external hard drive, once the driver had installed for the printer that functioned perfectly, I was able to read /write data at fast speed on the drive. I also plugged in a portable 128GB USB memory stick in one of the spare ports to use as a back up location only.
I forgot to mention my connection to my network, I used the ethernet port, my WiFi isn’t the fastest so always opt for ethernet where possible so I can’t really comment on the WiFi functionality on this PC, the ethernet is as stated, up to 1000Mbps.
Overall I’m very impressed, priced at 139.00 with a 30 voucher currently available, this offers very good value for money and considering Windows 11 can be installed is an added bonus for me anyway, the fact that I can use word and excel with ease sells this computer to me.
Very happy to recommend.

Excellent first starter computer.Plug and play ,working specification, portable and lightweight design.Low energy consumption , quiet and easy to set up win 10.I like this one
This is very nice piece of tech but very limited as I just hit the 3rd brick wall with this set up I am unable to bypass due to pc hardware requirements .Still, regardless of the problem I am happy to recommend this product .Thanks.
Ottimo mini pc, nonostante il “mini” ha un sistema di ventilazione niente male e anche nelle giornate pi calde non ne risente andando in thermal throttling. Le caratteristiche sono ottime per un pc da studio/lavoro base, anche lo stream di contenuti va bene e con le 8 gb di ram e l’ssd m.2 va alla grande. Lo uso principalmente per lo studio e spesso faccio molte videoconferenze su zoom, oltre ad usarlo per navigare, guardare film e serie in streaming e, a volte, anche giocando. Ovviamente non aspettatevi chiss quanta qualit nei giochi ma giocando a full guys con le giuste impostazioni mi ci diverto senza problemi.
I’ve only had this pc a few days, but I’m very happy with it. Out of the box, and before I’ve added my own programs etc, responsiveness is excellent, web pages load almost instantly, tweaking it to my liking was simple, and importantly, getting access to the interior via the 4 small screws on the bottom and adding an SSD drive was a doddle, taking only a couple or three minutes. I think it’s good value for the performance at the price I paid, and I’m hopeful it’ll last me a few years before I need to upgrade again. I should point out, I’ve bought this for media playback, browsing and streaming, and emails. I’ve no real idea how it might function as a games pc, but I suspect you should know that isn’t it’s primary purpose. As a home pc for the above mentioned tasks, I’m rating it on first impressions as 5 stars.
Cuando recib la pequea caja pensaba que se haban equivocado ya que en mi cabeza sigo teniendo las CPU antiguas como concepto de ordenador por eso cuando recib una caja poco ms grande que la de los telfonos mviles actuales no me entraba en la cabeza que eso pudiera ser un ordenador completo y muchsimo ms potente que cualquier ordenador que haya tenido hasta la fecha.
El ordenador viene con una preinstalacin tan completa que simplemente al conectarlo y ponerle algn tipo de acceso a Internet empieza a actualizarse con las ltimas versiones y ya tendramos un ordenador completamente funcional y salvo que seas muy exigente o lo quieras para cosas muy concretas mucho ms que suficiente en tanto a capacidades para un uso domstico o incluso profesional si tienes una pequea empresa o lo quieres utilizar en tu negocio.
Viene preparado para instalarlo en cualquier dispositivo tipo detrs de una televisin o un monitor dedicado para tal fin o simplemente posado como he hecho yo en un cajn desde el que saco los cables y va a la televisin por lo que tengo un ordenador completo con una pantalla enorme y encima no se ven cables ni nada por medio.
El caso del objetivo principal era hacer una pequea red de domotizacin de la casa y centralizar en este pequeo ordenador todos los ecosistemas de los aparatos inteligentes que tengo por casa, evidentemente para ese fin sobra muchsima capacidad por lo que tambin lo he convertido en una especie de centro multimedia sper prctico.
La calidad y la capacidad de los materiales es realmente buena y en mi caso que escog el modelo de ocho gigas de memoria RAM y doscientos cincuenta y seis de capacidad es ms que suficiente para prcticamente cualquier cosa del da a da que quiera hacer, el disco duro que es lo que probablemente se pueda quedar algo corto es muy sencillamente ampliable a travs de alguno de los mltiples puertos que tiene para tal fin, soporta expansiones a travs de ranura de tarjetas o de USB de hasta dos terabytes de capacidad.
Rober puedes hasta expandir la memoria RAM a travs de las ranuras DDR4 que tiene llegando a soportar treinta y dos gigas una autntica locura.
En resumen un mini ordenador que es perfecto para la gente que sabe algo de informtica o incluso para los legos como yo que simplemente lo quieren para tener un ordenador sin complicaciones.
En casa llevamos usando un PC STICK desde hace unos 3 aos y ltimamente estaba dando fallos de drivers y los procesos se estaban relantizando conforme se va actualizando Windows y cuando vi la oportunidad de probar este mini PC no lo dud ni un segundo, adems con procesador Ryzen, el cual tena muchas ganas de probar desde hace tiempo.
No voy a entrar en detalles que podis leer en la descripcin del producto, as que voy a describir los detalles que no se pueden obtener de la descripcin.
La presentacin-embalaje del producto es de 10, todo perfectamente protegido y colocado. La caja del Mini Pc es metlica y con orificios para ayudar a la disipacin activa mediante ventilador, lo que he visto que se calienta bastante cuando est trabajando a tope, su e muy rpido la temperatura, pero tambin baja rpido cuando para el proceso. Lo que me da a entender que para procesos largos y con bastante carga de CPU, es posible que se apague para protegerse.
Viene con Windows 11 instalado y va como la seda, muy rpido y sin ningn tipo de lag.
La cantidad de puertos que trae son ms que suficientes para conectar todo tipo de perifricos, como cable de ethernet Gigabit. Adems, de tener bluetooth 4.0 un poco antiguo para m entender y Wi-Fi 5, si hubiese tenido Wi-Fi 6 hubiese sido la guinda del pastel.
Respecto a la velocidad del disco SSD es endiablada llegando a ms de 1600mb/s de lectura y 1300mb/s de escritura. En las imgenes podis observar la temperatura que alcanza mientras hace la prueba 78C.
Despus de instalar todas las actualizaciones de Windows quedan 209GB libres para nuestro uso.
Un minipc muy compacto y potente que ocupa muy poco espacio(se puede acoplar detrs de la pantalla o en la pared) valido para la mayora de las tareas.
Grazie al programma Amazon Vine ho avuto l’onore e l’onere di provare questo PC per fare una recensione obiettiva e accurata.
L’ho stressato (come si dice in gergo tecnico) per capirne i limiti e le potenzialit, rimanendone impressionato molto positivamente!
Vi invito a guardare il filmato per farvi un’idea della potenza di questo piccolo, ma potente, computer!
CONFEZIONE
Mi aspettavo un grosso case e quando mi sono ritrovato in mano la confezione sono rimasto molto sorpreso dalle dimensioni ridotte.
Nella confezione, oltre al mini PC, sono presenti:
– alimentatore;
– cavo HDMI corto;
– cavo HDMI lungo;
– placca e viti per il fisaggio sui monitor;
– manuale con lingua italiana.
Sul lato anteriore ci sono:
– il pulsante di accensione;

– porta di rete LAN.
VENTOLE
Ai lati e sul lato posteriore sono presenti le prese d’aria per dissipare il calore.
Quando il computer ha un carico impegnativo che fa scaldare e componenti si attiva automaticamente la ventola.
Il rumore che emette non tanto.
CPU
Non mi aspettavo che un Ryzen 3 fosse cos potente!
In fase di rendering con Da Vinci Resolve (editor video potente), senza altri programmi aperti, impiega un tempo accettabile (fino al doppio in presenza di qualche effetto di transizione).
Regge e molto bene il multitasking.
Ho attivato bitlocker e non ne ha risentito.
GPU, 3D e compromessi
La scheda video basata su AMD RADEON lavora benissimo sia con Google Earth Pro (installato sul desktop) che con i videogiochi impegnativi (provato con Fortnite, Star Wars Squadron e Trackmania).
Per ottenere una buona fluidit per necessario abbassare il livello di dettaglio.
CONNESSIONI
Wi-Fi, bluetooth, ethernet.. funziona tutto e funziona alla grande.
Riesco a collegarmi, tramite Wi-Fi, all’hotspot dell’iPhone 13!
USB 3.0
Le velocit di trasferimento dati elevatissima, il massimo che si pu richiedere col protocollo.
SSD e RAM
Qui il PC d il massimo, con punte di lettura di 320 MB/s.
L’HD una vera scheggia!
WINDOWS 11 PRO
Windows 11 Pro preinstallato, l’ho configurato per assomigliare pi a Windows 10 e non ho mai avvertito rallentamenti di sorta.
CONCLUSIONI
Costa 399,99 euro mentre scrivo questa recensione.
un gioiellino e merita il massimo dei voti.
Spero che il filmato vi sia stato utile.

Es ideal para tener un ordenador potente a la vez que pequeo, lo recomiendo totalmente.
In passato avevo acquistato un mini-pc, ma ero rimasto molto deluso dalla lentezza e dai problemi che aveva, tanto da fare il reso. QUESTO TUTTA UN’ALTRA STORIA!
Rimane un pc con dei limiti, non adatto a tutto, ma sicuramente vi permette di
– navigare velocemente in internet
– diventare il vostro centro multimediale connesso direttamente alla TV
– usare agevolmente programmi di lavoro come Word o Excel
– divertirvi con qualche gioco semplice
I suoi limiti diventano evidenti se invece dovrete usare programmi pi pesanti, come quelli per l’editing video o la progettazione, o se vi piacciono i giochi pi elaborati. Ecco qualche informazione in pi per aiutarvi a fare la scelta giusta.
DIMENSIONI
Vero punto di forza, sono davvero mini. Circa 12 cm per lato. E con la piccola staffa in dotazione potremo installarlo direttamente dietro al monitor o alla TV.
CONNETTIVITA’
Sarebbe sufficiente dire che completa. Comunque, vi confermo la presenza del WiFi 5 e Bluetooth 4.0, entrambi stabili. Ovviamente ci sono a corredo anche 4 porte USB-A, 1 USB-C, 2 HDMI, 1 Ethernet e il jack per le cuffie. Alla prima accensione gli unici cavi che vi serviranno sono quello di alimentazione e per il video, ovviamente entrambi in dotazione (i cavi HDMI sono 2 ma uno di solo 20 cm). Tastiera e mouse li ho connessi via wireless con il loro dongle proprietario.
CONFIGURAZIONE
Windows 11 PRO preinstallato ma al primo avvio dovr essere configurato, ci vorranno quasi 15 minuti. Dopo ne serviranno altri 15 per aggiornare i vari software dal Microsoft Store (comunque sono quelli standard, non ci sono programmi bloatware). Infine, ho eseguito i vari aggiornamenti di sistema, incluso una versione di Windows. Questo ci ha impiegato un po’ di pi, circa mezzora.
Quindi, per completare il tutto ci vuole un’oretta. Un pc desktop di fascia medio/alta ci avrebbe messo di meno. L’installazione dei programmi una di quei compiti che mostrano la natura pi economica del processore, ma poi nel loro utilizzo diventa tutto pi fluido. Qui doverosa una parentesi per i pi tecnici
PROCESSORE
AMD di per s una garanzia di affidabilit e di un buon rapporto costo/prestazioni. Il Rayzen 3 la serie entry level, pi economico ma non per questo lento. Nello specifico, questo 3200U una versione appositamente progettata per laptop. Ci significa che costruito per contenere calore e consumi, a fronte di prestazioni leggermente depotenziate.
Per dare qualche dato, ha 2 core fisici + 4 virtuali (contro i 4 + 4 della versione per desktop), una frequenza di base di 2,6 GHz che in modalit turbo pu arrivare a 3,5 GHz. Ha una GPU video integrata con 2 GB di memoria e frequenza da 1,2 GHz, senza modalit turbo.
Un lato positivo che i consumi rimangono sempre molto bassi, nell’utilizzo normale oscillano tra i 10W e i 30W circa. Anche il calore contenuto e, di conseguenza, il pc poco rumoroso perch la ventilazione non lavora troppo (e comunque lateralmente ha abbondanti griglie di areazione).
MEMORIE
Per la RAM abbiamo 2 slot, di cui uno occupato da un banco da 8 GB DDR4 2400 MHz della CRUCIAL. Possiamo sia aggiungere un secondo banco uguale, che metterne 2 da 16. 32 GB il massimo supportato.
Come archiviazione abbiamo un SSD M.2 NVMe da 256 GB della KINGSTON, ma supporta fino a 2 TB. E in pi c’ lo slot per aggiungere un hard disk SSD da 2,5 pollici.
Cosa significa tutto questo? 2 cose importanti:
– il pc dotato di memorie di ottima qualit
– il pc espandibile ed anche facile farlo. sufficiente svitare 4 viti alla base, e tutto a portata di mano. In particolare, io consiglierei l’upgrade a 16 GB di RAM per migliorare la gestione multitasking o dei programmi pi pesanti.
PER CHI CONSIGLIATO
Per tutti coloro che hanno poco spazio o vogliono semplicemente mantenere pulita la scrivania. Bench un pc desktop generalmente pi potente, un mini PC pu comunque soddisfare tutte le nostre esigenze basilari. Pu anche essere perfetto come centro multimediale dietro la TV.
Fra i tanti modelli disponibili, vi suggerisco di non scegliete quelli troppo economici, con tecnologia datata o componenti di bassa qualit. Questo Rayzen 3 gi una buona scelta. Tra l’altro viene venduto nella stessa configurazione con diversi marchi, tutti con buone recensioni. Per chi poi ha bisogno di un po’ di potenza in pi, ci sono comunque le versioni con il Rayzen 5 o 7, ma ovviamente sale anche il costo. Ecco, l’ultima considerazione sul prezzo. Attualmente di 399, a mio avviso un po’ alto. Ma possibile usare un coupon e prenderlo a 343, questo mi sembra pi a fuoco. Se scendesse ancora un p sarebbe un best buy.
Spero che vi sia stato utile.

I’m not a ‘heavy’ PC user, mainly used for browsing, music format converting and some ‘light’ gaming.
Once setup and W11 updates done, I opened multiple browser windows across my two connected monitors, ran a malware scan, downloaded apps and app updates and listened/watched some music from YouTube.
I was instantly impressed with how well it copes with this multitasking. I did play an old game (old being from approx 2000) and apart from some screen lag, it ran the game acceptably.
If you want to play the latest games online, then a dedicated gaming PC is the route to take.
For all other PC related uses, this is an ideal space saving alternative and great VFM.

I was also quite surprised that it came with Windows 11 Professional edition at the price I paid for it!
It did a great job of running Windows 11, although I didn’t use it much as I’m actually using it to run Home Assistant (via VMWare VSphere 6.7), which meant a complete reformat.
Due to the fact that the internal network card is made by Realtek (and therefore not supported by VMWare), it was a bit of a challenge to set up, and I can’t use the latest version of VSphere. However, this is a very special use scenario, so definitely does not reflect on the quality or value for money of this PC.
It runs very quietly. Despite having a fan, I can’t hear it unless i put my ear directly to the case – which is perfect for what I wanted.
Overall, I can’t recommend this enough for the price.
When I first bought this Mini PC I was having problems with the Ethernet connection as it was always disconnecting when I was trying to browse the internet
But somebody from Trigkey got in touch and helped me sort out the problem with it and is now working like a dream!
I would highly recommend this Mini PC
I really like the way how it works this mimi pc window 11.
It has changed completely the way my pc has worked and make it better .
It is easy to use if you have knowledge for pc but if not please read the manual before installing it so you don’t make anything wrong.
When I reviewed price was about 320 it is very expensive to be honest but knowing how good it is and the way it works probably worth .
Just hoping it will last long .

I wouldn’t say this is a great work horse. But those who wants a space saving, faster pc for budget friendly price range, this will be a great option when it comes with pre installed Windows 11pro.
It is equipped with 8 GB ram and 128 GB SSD which boosts the speed greatly.
Dual band WiFi and connectivity with Bluetooth is great to tether with desired devices.
The box came with a power supply adapter and an HDMI cable with limited length. The length is sufficient for most of the cases.
Overall, I’m totally satisfied with the products usage and recommend it.

It has Windows already installed and for the size it’s pretty fast and works well.
The ports are enough for me as I’m just using the HDMI and USB
For a small machine, it has bluetooth and wifi and is easy to connect to.
This machine is lightweight and portable which I love.
Well engineered machine and works really well.

Being able to attach two monitors is a massive plus.
Being fan-cooled is a bonus as not all mini PCs have them.
The expandable storage is great
It arrives in eco-friendly packaging and includes the power supply, the mini-computer itself and an HDMI cable. The HDMI cable isn’t massively long but is adequate.
Overall very impressed.

A great little device, works really well and exactly what I needed. It’s not the most powerful machine in the world but you would not expect it to be at this price. Has a number of ports for connectivity. Would recommend!
