This little powerhouse is a perfect home virtualization server. I bought this and an SSD to run proxmox in my home. The main goal was to get a low power, high feature device for a reasonable price. This absolutely fits the bll. Adding an second SSD to this was very easy, 4 screws. I installed proxmox and have been running 4-6 containers on it without issue for about a year. I added a second one and use the second interfaces on each device to do clustering. they're low power and low noise. Pros: Great price point Upgradable with an additional internal SSD Able to run virtualization without issue Low power draw Low noise Comes with a licensed copy of windows 11, if you want to use it. Cons: Processor is a lower class model, so it's not a powerhouse, but it works well for a handful of containers.

After reading a bunch of reviews on different Mini PC's, we decided on this little guy. We wanted a portable backup PC for the house and a space saving unit for my RV. Although we have tablets and laptops, we wanted a PC with that would have a larger screen without having to screen cast to TV. 1. We use our computers for everyday computing (internet, email, word processing, online streaming, video cloning/editing and converting to save to a portable hard drive and Network attached storage). 2. This Mini PC has a 4 core processor (up to 3.4GHz), 16GB ram, 500GB SSD (upgradable), Wifi6, Ethernet port, 4 UBS ports, 2 HDMI ports and a one year warranty (extended warranty can also be purchased). It comes with a 5 volt, 3 amp power adapter and installed Windows 11. We use a wireless keyboard and mouse and mounted the unit to the Vesa mounting holes on the back of a Fire 1080 TV. 3. Every aspect of this Mini PC works flawlessly. It is comparable to a Desktop PC. It processes very fast, boots very quickly, has great HDMI picture quality and takes up no desk space. It is so impressive that all of this is packed inside such a small unit. 4. As for intensive gaming, this Mini PC probably isn't the best choice. You would want a faster processor and video interface. But for everyday computer chores, this unit would work very well for most users. 5. Keep in mind, if you buy this unit, you will need a keyboard/mouse (wired or wireless) and a display unit of some kind (computer monitor, high resolution 1080 TV, etc.). 6. This is what I spent for everything: this Mini PC ($159.00), 24” Fire TV ($90 on sale), wireless keyboard and mouse ($35). Now I have a complete portable desktop PC (with TV) for about $284.00. If you already have a compatible TV, keyboard or mouse, then you won’t need to buy any of that.

Received the unit on time. Well packed. Connected it to a keyboard and mouse (both wireless with USB receivers) and wired it to a monitor (HDMI). Turned it on and the system booted to Win11 Pro. Then, I went through the normal Windows startup sequence. Connected to the 'guest' network on my home network, downloaded a 'virus/malware' scanning app and ran a full system scan, as some similar units have had problems with included malware. The system checked out with no virus or malware found. Then, spent the morning watching the computer downloading and installing all of the updates for Win11 Pro. When finished, I loaded an app to monitor my home security cameras (24/7) and connected the unit to my wired security network. Once setup, the unit has worked fine except for one glitch after the first 24 hours (do not know what happened). Since then (3 days), no problems. The unit came with a mounting bracket that enabled me to mount the unit with ease (two screws). The unit does seem to run a little bit hot. Waiting to see its longevity.

No brainer setup. Fanless and there's no electronic whine (that I can hear at age 47), so it's basically silent. Wifi and Ethernet worked without a hitch. Windows first time setup proceeded as expected. If the specs and form factor of this device meet your needs, then I think the simplicity of setup is worth the price premium. The included mounting bracket fits VESA 100 in an side-offset manner with no modifications, so it's great for mounting between a monitor and a VESA mount monitor arm.

***Update: Installing the 6.4 Kernel did get the AX101 Wi-Fi card going just great.*** My daily driver is an iMac, but I needed a cheap computer so I could still get some stuff done when I'm batching gobs of images. I got this and immediately installed a 2.5" SSD for dual boot Linux. I did go through the Windows setup process, but I just don't even want to mess with that. I got it to boot the Linux drive first, and all is well except for one thing. The AX101 wireless on board is not yet supported in Linux, and I cannot find a patch, so I'm having to use a (gag) dongle until that happens. Wi-Fi did work immediately with Windows. Cool little computer, very cheap and pretty much problem free. No complaints regarding the hardware itself.

I can't speak to longevity but I can speak to performance. For my purposes this computer is more than sufficient and as good as a full size tower that would be twice the cost...or more. It has plenty of ports and works fine for web browsing and teaching an online class. I am pleasantly surprised that I can get a thoroughly functional desktop for less than two hundred dollars. I'm sure it wouldn't work for gaming and simar demanding uses.

The product came packaged nicely. Upon opening it you're greeted with a card that simply says "Hello". Underneath that there were some instructions, and the Mini PC wrapped nicely with fabric "rope" to remove the Mini PC from the package. Underneath that was the power cord, HDMI cable, and mounting bracket. There were also a good amount of foam inserts to protect the product during shipping. As far as what I'm using it for, it works well and for the price range is not bad. My keyboard and mouse worked instantly on it. All of the USB ports worked. The HDMI slots all worked. The power button is responsive and has a nice click to it. Overall, it worked, and I was able to load Home Assistant (HA) on it using Ubuntu on a flash drive and adding the HA image from there. I would recommend this for Home Assistant. Beyond that, I don't know what else it could be used for other than general browsing!

tl;dr Save your money; buy something made by a reputable company. Bought this for a low-power always-on system. Worked fine for a week and a half. Came home from work to find it unresponsive over the network, to keyboard or mouse, and with the graphics scrambled. While it will still turn on, the graphics never initialize, the BIOS never POSTS, and it turns off after about 30 seconds. It isn't immediately apparent from a quick search, but if you spend the time to dig into things (more than I initially did), you'll find Beelink has a history of issues including poor quality control, failing hardware, and useless technical support. If you still want to take the chance on getting a unit that doesn't spontaneously fail, for the week and a half it worked, it did well running Proxmox VE with a handful of virtual machines and containers. I never got around to stressing it all; CPU load baseline was around 3%, and it never had a chance to get hot so I don't know anything about how well it handles thermal load.

i bought this mini PC to use as a small and cheap home server, its extremely quiet, you have to put your ear close to it to hear its fan on idle, and can support up to 2TBs of an internal 2.5" SATA drive, i really recommend this for use as a homeserver, but its specs are really not good or suitable for gaming in case thats what you're looking for

CORRIJAN LA DESCRIPCIÓN. La descripción es engañosa, y no me importa si otros vendedores lo hacen: poner las mejores especificaciones como título principal del producto y dejar las especificaciones reales para las "letras chiquitas" es una trampa muy patética.
