Beelink Mini S12 Pro Mini PC, Intel 12th Gen N100 (4C/4T, up to 3.4GHz), 16GB DDR4, 500GB SSD, Desktop Computer Support Dual HDMI 4K@60Hz, WiFi 6, BT5.2, NAS, Low Power

Very impressive, I use this for watching media in my bedroom as my Tv is very lack luster in smart features. This little pc is very fast in windows 11 and impressed me with how quiet it is, how easy it was to set up and the price.

Bought the 16GB RAM, 500GB SSD version. Good quality and design, very quiet and reliable. Surprisingly it shipped with Windows 11 Pro, nice to be able to use Microsoft Remote Desktop to manage it. I added a 2TB SATA SSD and upgraded the RAM to 32GB. Installed Plex Media Server, it's a perfect media center computer without spending much. Almost pure Intel in terms of internal components, so it'll be easy to maintain. It's easy to open the case and work on. Not screaming fast but it's not slow either. Perfect for basic desktop productivity too. I highly recommend this Beelink mini PC, it has a lot of bang for the buck.

I found out Plex requires you to be fully online to work. Had it running on my Nvidia Shield. I bought this to be a server for my home multimedia library using Jellyfin and it exceeded expectations. It's small and lightweight, quiet, runs really well, and has so far handled everything I've thrown at it (1080p and 4K video streams). It even has a generous SDD. I was also pleasantly surprised that Windows 11 was preinstalled on this $150 machine. I'm running Ubuntu on it, but the fact that I can dual boot Windows if I need to is a plus. I would recommend this completely to anyone wanting to run a Jellyfin server for their media.

My old plex server died and I needed a replacement. The beelink showed up and had zero issues setting up windows, even connected to a network. I installed Avast antivirus and threw Plex server on there. In about an hour I was streaming test content via plex.This little guy has zero issues with 480p DVD quality streaming. I also tested up to 1080p and that was fine (although sometimes a noticeable few seconds, <5, to buffer). Most of my collection is ripped DVDs so that's fine.It totally choked on a 4K stream attempt. Don't buy this if you want to stream 4K.A single 480 plex stream uses about 25% of the CPU. I usually stream to a single TV so that's perfect. It should work ok for ~3 streams but I haven't maxed it out yet.All my data is going in an external drive caddy that connects via USB.I have not yet configured it to also work as a file server using windows 11 but see no major roadblocks. Its a standard windows 11 install.For my use case this little device was cheap, easy to setup and seems to work perfectly. We'll see how it holds up in the long run.

Like the Intel N150 processor and the double M.2 hard drive slots, lots of RAM for me, Wi Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2 and Winows 11 Pro preinstalled. I also have the Beelink S12 mini Pro which has the Intel N100 processor with a M.2 hard drive and an extra slot for a 2.5 in. SSD drive. So far this mini S-13 is great and better than the mini S-12 but not by much. I had some issues with Windows 11 setup but that has been resolved with Windows updates. Had the S-12 for over a year and runs great. I expect this M-13 to do the same. Paid 150.00 for the S-12 and this S-13 I got for 170.00. Great deals and value. Windows 11 works great , so take the leap and get past Windows 10 as it will soon be obsolete.

I got this product thinking that it was a medium size computer system. in reality this is quite small, about 2 in x 4 x 4. it is one of the most fantastic computer products that I bought. for attaching to a monitor or tabletop, it runs extremely well. not really good for gaming, but for all other windows and Python and other systems needs, this is definitely a good buy overall.

I bought this in October as a test, and finally set it up last week. Windows ran fine, but I could never get it to update Windows because of the temperature issues.Simple Windows Update drove the CPU temperatures up to 105 degrees Celsius, and the unit would shut itself down to protect against thermal damage. Removing the bottom of the device and leaving it open helped, but temperatures were still up between 90C and 95C, and the CPUs were capped at 25% capacity. So opening a browser window might take 20 seconds.Eventually the unit stopped booting, and I'm glad because I don't need to invest any more time into getting this working. It goes into the trash as I'm likely out of the warranty period, and there's no real data on the device anyway.I'd say this is a hard AVOID.

Okay, this is designed for a TV (or two), and tucks away nicely.Add a wireless keyboard/mouse combo (not included) and you can easily add this to an entertainment center.Or you could make a budget 2-monitor workstation since 32in 4K TVs are cheaper than large PC Monitors.You could also try a HDMI to PC Video adapter.Default audio output will be through the TV.The biggest problem so far is not the PC but the invasive Windows OS. So many nagging non-features interrupt use, particularly a millennial neediness regarding that USELESS Edge browser. Dozens of nuisance downgrades need to be tweaked to undo changes no one wanted let alone asked for. It's not Beelink's fault per se, but they did include this version of Windows.The WiFi 6 is pretty fast, but it does drop pretty regularly. I wouldn't recommend this for streaming or those all-or-nothing long downloads that require a babysitter. You can always hardwire it or get a WiFi dongle.It has 4 USB3.2 Gen 2 (Type A) ports: 2 front, 2 back. You'll probably want to buy a hub or at least a USB C adapter.It comes with 2 M.2 PCle 2280 slots, but one is occupied by the SSD. It's upgradable to 4TB max between both slots according to the description.It seems to be already at the maximum 16GB memory, so I'm not sure why it mentions upgradable since almost all of the models listed are 16GB.It's quiet. I haven't exactly challenged the processor yet, but I'm not hearing noise.
