Beelink Mini PC - 4 Cores i5-8279U (Up to 4.1GHz) SEi8 Mini Desktop Computer - 16GB DDR4 500GB SSD Small PC, WiFi 5, 4K Dual HDMI, BT5.0, Gigabit Ethernet

Very nice unit for the price.

Ive bought many mini PCs over the years, using them to power anything from TV Digital Signage to Photo Booths. This mini PC, is by far the most powerful one Ive purchased. With a solid i5 processor, plenty of memory and hard drive this PC has taken anything Ive thrown at it and kept up with ease. I feel like Im underutilizing it as a TV multimedia box, and need to put it to better use with its dual screen HDMI support.

The wifi reception is terrible 3mgs while my ipad is getting over 200. Do you want customer service? Call China long distance. Amazon does not carry the product which I bought a month and a half ago and gives no response. Stick to brand names is what I learned.

Ive switched over to the Apple ecosystem for most things. But still wanted a budget PC around, for a couple of Windows-only applications and some light PC gaming. This mini PC, basically the Windows version of a Mac Mini, seemed like a good choice to fill that gap.

I previously purchased this unit with Windows 10 Pro on it. I convinced my brother to purchase the same unit SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE it was advertised as coming with Windows 10 Pro. Instead, his unit came with Windows 11 Pro installed. I have been pleased with my Windows 10 Pro unit, but Windows 11 might as well be malware with its mandatory creation of an online Microsoft account, completely rearranged desktop environment, etc. I had to use a hack to bypass the mandatory account creation.

In addition to its compact size, this tiny mini PC offers two RAM slots for even faster operations. In fact, it performs better than my current laptop. I got a cheap travel laptop with the same CPU (8th gen i5-8279U) and I love how fast it is. Having two RAM slots definitely makes a difference. This CPU appears to be a viable choice for the most recent cost-effective devices. I did not notice a significant difference from my wifes 11th gen i5 laptop. It was disappointing that it did not come with the SATA harness cables for adding additional storage, as it was shown on several YouTube videos. In the video I posted, you can hear the fan noise. The noise is neither loud nor quiet. It supports 4K displays without any problems. It is an excellent value, especially with a coupon. A VESA mount is included!

Great Mini PC for small business, Home Office and middle level softwares requeriments

I quickly needed a backup computer after my old desktop (backup) failed. Im a software developer so I cant tolerate a system outage when meeting deadlines. I didnt want another tower and was interested in a small factor computer like the NUC. Searching Amazon I found this Beeline. Reviews looked favorable. The specs were good. Even though it was Intel I5, it would meet my needs. Win11 Pro, wifi, SSD, HDMI made it a complete package. Noticed that I could add another SSD. Price was good and I could get it the next day were all pluses.

Pleasantly surprised by this mini unit

Not as simple to configure as I thought.
