Great mini machines, but DP ports don't work. I've bought many of these over the past few years and all have been great, except the last few have had DP ports that don't work. I've tried with Windows and Linux, with DP to HDMI adapters, and the DP ports just don't work. So I use the USB-C port as a video output instead and things work fine. It's just a non-functioning waisted port. I wish Beelinks came with 2 HDMI ports like they used to. DP sucks anyways.

So far it is running like a champ. I don’t have any overheating issues but I did take the precaution of making sure there is room for airflow underneath the machine. I am not gaming on this. It is just for streaming. So I can’t attest to performance quality. But it is perfect for streaming. If it breaks down at all I will update this review.

This mini-PC performs well for the price point, but the power adapter that comes with it is insufficient or flaky. I was having frequent power related crashes, even with minimal power draw / idle. The OEM Windows install could not update successfully due to crashes. I was able to successfully complete a fresh install of Win 11, but the machine still had frequent crashes afterwards. I swapped in a separate (more powerful) power adapter (19V 6.3A), and the machine has been working under load without issue for weeks now. Having to buy a separate power adapter makes this nearly 10% more expensive than it should be, hence the 3-star rating for this budget friendly mini-PC.

Since I just review GMTech box that failed me badly with no warranty support I figured I would put out a positive on this guy. I have 2 from this company that have been solid for the last year of constant office use. As low cost machines go They have been rock solid and I've even setup 2 more for older relatives as cheep upgrades to there old systems. I could have just had bad luck with what I thought was a more premium machine from GMTech that I grabbed for my business partner, so there is Definity a bit of bias here.

I LOVE THIS THING!!!!! This was probably one of the BEST technology purchases I have made in the last 3 years. I was ready to upgrade from an older Acer laptop I jave been using and this has not disappointed AT ALL!! I am looking at getting another one to run some things I am looking at for my house! One of the coolest features I really love about it is it's physical size! I can hide this thing. Love it!!
