Beelink EQi12 Mini PC Intel i5 1235U(10C/12T,up to 4.4GHZ),16GB 3200MHz DDR4 500GB PCle4.0x4 SSD Mini Computer Supports 4K Dual Screen Display/WiFi6/BT5.4/Dual 1000M LAN

Update after couple months use: I have tried to bog this thing down by doing a backup, virus scans, windows updates and a myriad of other tasks and it just chugs thru the. We continue to think this was such a good deal. Oh and we have yet to hear the fan and is otherwise silent! Wow! So powerful yet small. This little PC really cooks. Can easily add another drive (M.2) and plenty connectivity via ports, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Easy setup and boots very fast. Unpacks large install packages in an instant. Sound, video and overall performance is top notch. Very sturdy case!

Paired with a USB hard drive, these make excellent NVRs for Blue Iris installations. The largest installation is sixteen 1080P IP cameras as well as a card access system, and it handles the task easily, typically running at only 20-25% CPU capacity. The first time I got one of these, I used it out of the box on an isolated VLAN for testing. It configured a fresh installation of Windows 11 Pro and was up and running quickly. I monitored it for a couple days and detected no unexpected network activity and no signs of viruses. Since I am using this for a business, I still make it a point to format the internal drive and install my own version of Windows. For home use, this would make an excellent Plex server. For normal people, it can handle more 1080P streams than you'll ever need. I was able to test it with three 4K transcodes (down to 1080P) and it handled it easily, only hitting 30% CPU.

No trap, everything mentioned in the description is correct.I bought another one last year and it works like a charm. It does not bug, it saves space, does not consume a lot and has a big memory easy to use. Mine is dark grey. Plugs are usbc, except for one in the back and front. There are internet and hdmi too in the back. Very good price for great performance

Avoid this product and company at all costs! I bought this computer in December 2023 as a secondary device, and it's been nothing but trouble. At first, it worked fine, but then it started shutting down randomly during Zoom calls. I thought it might be a software issue, but the problem got worse even when not using Zoom. Now, this piece of junk barely stays on for a few minutes before crashing. It's not overheating, and the fan seems fine, so it's clearly a major hardware defect. The worst part? Their customer service is absolutely atrocious! Because I reported the issue just after the 12-month warranty expired, they completely washed their hands of the problem. They had the nerve to tell me to find a local repair shop, where fixing it would cost more than this worthless machine is worth! As a software developer, I've used many PCs and NUCs, and this is by far the worst I've ever encountered. I will never buy from this brand again, and I strongly urge you to avoid them too. Save yourself the headache and money - stay far away from this company and their shoddy products!

Small in size but large in features. Two complaints: installing a 2T SSD drive is tricky and It does not like to turn off- recycles and turns itself on. The computer is quick boots fast, high power and more powerful than my dying desk top. It is a desk top replacement and I wish I had bought one sooner. Excellent product. I highly recommend this MiniPC.

I used this to upgrade from an i5 to i7. It works well for home use and I would purchase again. Keep in mind the memory is not upgradeable but the storage SSD is, so buy enough memory to start with. I bought the one with 32gb memory. It is faster than the i5 and should last for several years.

This is a fantastic little box. I needed to replace my Plex server hardware, which was already 10 years out of date, except for the RTX 3080 graphics card (for transcoding). This little box with its onboard GPU out-performs the 3080-assisted old server, at 1/10 the power draw. It comes with Windows 11 loaded and has the driver package on the hard drive. I pulled the drivers to my NAS, loaded Server 2024, and am running without a hitch. Fantastic little server!

I'm blown away on how fast this little sucker is. I'm not a computer guru or a gamer but this baby rocks for my needs. Who needs a Rizen7 or an i7... I say. My only quirk is I wish Beelink would have put the audio jack on the rear of the unit instead of the front to run to my audio system. Also, I wish the type C USB ran video out for best 4K performance over HDMI. I Just hope the little machine lasts longer than the 1 star reviewers have complained about. Fingers crossed.
