This is small but very mighty device for what I needed.
Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2023
Disclaimer: This review is for my personal use of the device, which is very different from many users. I bought Green G5 unit with 16 GB RAM, and 512 GB SSD, Intel N100 CPU.
My purpose: I bought this mini PC to use as proxmox VE and OPNsense soft router, since it has dual INTEL 2.5Gbps ethernet ports, low power usage, compact and small factor. For my use, it is great, and it is working without any problem since the day one.
The unit comes with installed Win 11 pro, power adapter, two HDMI cables (one short, one longer), small plate for behind screen, if you want to attache the unit.
For my purpose, it is great machine for its price, specially compared to similar products which as under power and more than twice the price. I setup the unit as a proxmox VE server, and installed OPNsense router as VM, AdGuard DNS as LXC, and other VM and containers. I have even installed Win 11 pro, but did not tested it yet.
Since I have 800 Mbps Internet plan, I wanted to have dual 2.5Gbps ethernet ports for my home network. Each ethernet ports is being used as WAN and LAN interface respectively, instead of single one LAN port. Also, edited the BIOS setting, so it power ups when there is a power outage (in BIOS, under chipset, PCH-IO Configuration>State after G3, set it to S0 State). Everything is working as just fine for the past 3 weeks.
Pros for my purpose or why I picked this device over others:
-Its price, it was under $200 with discount, which is half of similar purposed devices
-Dual 2.5 Gbps INTEL ethernet ports, and INTEL CPU (INTEL means no driver issue for my purpose)
-More powerful than similar purposed devices, with already installed 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, so it can handle more VM and LXC, rather than being just a router.
-I can use as a standalone server or PC in the future
-It has ready 2.5 inch SSD slot attached to the lid cover, if you want to extend HDD capacity for TrueNAS or other purpose.
-Minimum use of power, compact and very quiet. Put under TV, next to cable modem and WiFi AP, and my wife still has not noticed it yet.
There is no single CON for my purpose. For others, who will use as an office PC or similar work related purpose, here are my two cents:
1. I would not use this unit for creative purposes, editing high MP RAW images or videos, or gaming. Its CPU is not designed for heavy duty tasks.
2. It will handle Office Suit without any problem, so no worries. However, I would buy one of the other models with price range between $250 – $350, which offer overall better performance. With an additional $100 or so, you would get:
– much better CPU performance, may be 3, 4 even 5 times better
– dual RAM slot with max 64 GB ram instead of single 16 GB RAM
– Dual SSD slot with 3000 MBps speed versus single slot with 800 MBps speed in this unit.
– Having dedicated GPU, graphics card versus CPU integrated

I got this to replace an Intel i5-2500k desktop running Windows 10 and I was not disappointed because it is faster than that old i5-2500k.
Pros:
1) very quiet and power efficient;
2) included Win11 Pro which I replaced with a Win10 Pro image from my old desktop;
3) light and easy to fit into tight spaces;
4) 16 GB of ram;
5) 500 GB NVMe drive;
6) desktop will power up as soon as it receives power from my power bar;
7) starts and shuts down quickly;
8) no bloatware; and
9) easy to install a 2.5″ SATA SSD or hard drive (I recommend an SSD to minimize heat and virabtion).
Cons:
1) no USB-C port;
2) could no locate the Win10 serial key in the bios so I used regedit to find the serial key and save it before overwriting Win11 with the Win10 image from my old desktop;
3) case is made entirely of plastic but does look classy;
4) no lights to indicate drive activity; and
5) no external antennas so, even though it is WiFi 6, my WiFi 6 PCIe desktop adapter achieves higher upload and download speeds because it has 2 external antennas.
Warning: be very careful when removing the bottom plate to install components as there is a fragile cable connecting the SATA connector to the motherboard. There is a rubber tab on the bottom and this connecting cable is on the opposite side of the rubber tab.
To get into the BIOS, press the DEL key as the computer is booting. Press the F7 key during the boot process to enter the boot menu.
This box is not for gamers.
Hope this review was helpful.

Il miniPC è molto bello ed il livello di silenziosità è discreto.
Purtroppo, testando a fondo, in oltre 2 mesi ho riscontrato un grade difetto nella gestione delle porte USB 3 ed USB-C in quanto, collegando dispositivi ad alta velocità (20Gpb/s) in modo randomico dopo un certo numero di minuti, il sistema disconnette tutte le periferiche USB causando errori e perdita potenziale di dati dai dichi.
Preciso che tutti i device testati con il MiniPC (apparati di marca e costosi) funzionano senza problemi su altri sistemi con medesime caratteristiche tecniche.
Allego lo screen del sistema indicando quali periferiche vendono corrotte e/o disconnesse frequentemente durante i cicli di lettura/scrittura.
Nota: Tale condizione sembrerebbe avvenire solo durante l’esercizio dei dispositivi e potrebbe essere dovuto ad una saturazione di banda non ben gestita dall’hardware magari avente una difformità di progettazione.
In definitiva un bel MiniPC ma che porta con se una instabilità che lo renderebbe, almeno nel mio scenario, inutilizzabile e considerato il costo non dovrebbe essere così.
