Nice little low powered desktop at a reasonable price point
No, this is not a powerhouse computer. It's an absolute lightweight. Don't ask for much. But for the price, it will do.With a Celeron N4020 running Windows 10 or 11, there's no way it can do much beyond browsing or lightweight desktop work. In terms of raw CPU horsepower, it's at roughly the same level as a Raspberry Pi 4. With 4 gigs of RAM (non-upgradable), you're limited to easy tasks. I'm using it to run data decoding for ham radio, where it performs acceptably. I have not tried any games.The eMMC system drive has decent performance, and it's pretty easy to install an M.2 SATA SSD if you need more data capacity. I put in a spare 500 GB M.2 SSD and installed Windows 11 on it. The SATA SSD has the same level of IO performance as the eMMC, which suggests a system bottleneck somewhere in the SoC. Disk performance is acceptable. The manual claims that the unit will take a 2.5 inch SATA drive but it was not obvious to me how to install it. The unit did not come with any cables or hardware for a SATA drive.Reasonable number of USB ports, including a USB C connection.This MiniPC comes with Windows 10 Home installed. Installing Windows 11 was no problem, except for WiFi drivers. The "manual" (not much of a manual, really) says it will support Linux, but I didn't try it.For the price I paid during Prime Days, I'm happy. It's better than a toy.

No OS, NO HHD
hard to be a working PC when is missing key internal component's .. couldn't even use a iso USB to add an OS as it couldn't find a HHD.

Upgrades can kill the video back up original os
After upgrade it lost video. Could make you think hardware is no good

Best Ever!
The best investment I ever made. I have disabilities with limited movement and my eyesight is getting bad now that I'm almost 72. With this I can relax where ever I am and control everything from my seat and have now hooked it up to a 60 inch tv so I am seeing everything great. I particularly love being able to watch free online movies on my tv now.

Old version dual core
For the price it is not worth it, but I had a gift card at the time. I drilled holes on top for proper heat ventilation due to no fans. It is nice to see dual slots for 2.5 and nvme.

very poor unit
i plugged in and it worked for 20 minutes and got seriously (like burn your hand ) HOT and started to malfunction. The only device I pugged in was the Logitech mouse USB.Update: I ordered a replacement unit and this one was ok. ***** stars. It took all my devices and monitors well. I am using it now to do this review.UPDATE 2---- AFTER 5 DAYS IT BURNED UP AND QUIT WORKING- STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT- THEY ARE ALL BAD UNITS NOT JUST 1 OF THEM.

This low configuration Ubuntu box is perfect for me to debug Linux kernel’s.
