BeelinkEQi12 Mini PC, Intel Core i5 12450H (8C/12T, up to 4.4GHz), 16GB DDR4 500GB M.2 PCIe4.0 SSD Mini Computer,4K Dual Display/HDMI/Type-C/WiFi 6/BT5.2/Dual Gigabit LAN

I am very happy with this mini PC. It is fast, it is quiet and it has great connections available.After the usual few Windows updates it was good to go with no issues.Previously I bought some mini PCs but the one on a less powerful processor could not cope these days while the one with the more pwerful processor is still working great so I think it is worth paying slightly more for a good spec machine like this.

After 30 days...My Beelink SEI Mini PC (11th generation Intel i5 11320H, 16GB 3200MHz RAM and NVMe data speeds) is a great option for a broad range of uses. I usually work with laptops but needed something static to manage data archives, cloud file synchronisation, Microsoft 365 apps, some Photoshop and Lightroom work, VirtualBox with Ubuntu, Spotify, Sonos, video streaming, web browsing and run some other varied electron-based apps. Editing videos with the onboard Intel XE is a bit laboured - mostly when exporting -but it can get you out of a hole when you need it.I'm using the device between a 4K TV and a 32" monitor on various resolutions and it works well. HDR support is there on the Intel XE but I'd suggest not to look for quite the same level of output that you'd get with a more powerful graphics card. That said, I've tested my device with RetroArch, Fallout 4 (720p, high settings - haven't had the heart to push it further), Golf 2K21, Firewatch and Mini Motorways connected to a USB game controller and it works really well.The gaming aspect is just a bonus, really and it's worth noting that the included single USB-C port also doesn't support display output - so bear that in mind... it's 2 HDMI ports supporting 60Hz 4K.Upgrades? There's also space for a SATA drive, which, is easy to install if you have requirement for more space than the already generously supplied 512GB NVMe (at this price). Given the small footprint of the device, there's not much else you can add in - RAM and / or the NVMe disk can be upgraded.Temperatures and background noise isn't a problem and the little Mini PC seems to manage these aspects well enough. The bluetooth chipset works happily with my Logitech mouse and keyboard and the include WiFi 6 adapter connects without issue to my router.The BeeLink forum is reasonably active and the tech team seem to offer direct support to anyone who needs a bit of guidance. The BeeLink website offers driver packs and full reinstallation files which are easy to manage, too.If there are any downsides to consider (and perhaps it's licensing costs being considered by BeeLink) it's that there is no Thunderbolt 3 or 4 port. One would be handy and two would be perfect. If you want that, there's a chunky price rise with an equivalent generation Intel NUC Mini PC. I'd buy another one if that became available. Otherwise, it's a brilliant value package.Overall, it's hard not to like this Mini PC and it looks decent, too. Here's hoping it continues to deliver the goods.

Bought this as a family PC to keep photo's... and a bit of light gaming for myself. So quick, performs better than my work laptop which is more than twice the price. I was considering getting a laptop for the family but I am so glad I got this. So small you can attach it to the back of the monitor, runs three screens with ease, so easy to set up. It's an incredible bit of kit. Don't hesitate.

Ordered two machines and having problems with both. Cheap build and materials. Better of paying more from a reputable manufacturer

Wonderful little gem, a lot of power, used it for light programming and gaming. No issues. Browsing is superfast, not heat issues so far. The combination of Windows 11 and this mini pc is a wonderful addition to my tech family. Only downside, ports are very close and could make it look like a mess and visually not appealing when those big USB plugs and HDMI plugs hanging around on this little gem.

I bought this to help control my mount and telescope in my observatory. Arrived well packaged with minimal instructions. All the power leads and hdmi cables included. Connected to my monitor and switched on, within 5 minutes I was up and running and downloading my software required to control my mount and CCD camera.First impressions after a few weeks of ownership are -Very easy to set up, came with windows 10 proVery quick boot up time, has a 500gb SSD and it makes a world of difference.A lot of connections for stuff, 6 usb connectors, 2 monitors, more than enoughSmall size so the footprint of the computer is relatively smallAnd that’s it, great little PC with no obvious drawbacks.

Very good for general computing, I don't game so can't comment, mainly used as a music server. Very fast and stable, appears durable but time will tell. Amazon prices are erratic wait for a bargain.

It’s pretty fast. Instructions abysmal. No advice about how to install larger m2 or secondary sata m2 disk. Support is lacking. Baugue answers and half answers ie ask 4 questions get responses for 2 for example.No obvious bios updates yet. The stock windows 11 build was not good as AppStore didn’t work. Reinstalled by diskpart, cleaned disk and fresh install from a legit win 11 22h2 iso. That solved issue. Intel driver updater fixed most of drivers and ii it free driver booster solved the rest. You have to be very careful when you replace m2 disk you don’t damage the very thin sata cable that connects the disk tray and carefully remove and re install the heat gel pad onto new m2 disk. You need a 7mm sata ssd so used a crucial mx 1tb. There are no screws mounts to hold the sata ssd.If you’re used to working on macs or Nuc systems it’s going to be fairly obvious. What doesn’t help us minuscule cross head screws held in with thread lock so very easy to chew the heads if you have the wrong screwdrivers or poor quality ones. There is absolutely no need for threadlock on the sata tray. Especially as it’s meant to be consumer upgradable.Think of it like this. If you know what you’re doing you’ll be fine. But if you’re going to need support buy a Nuc, they’re better built, better supported and better driver packs. However these are good spec and already usable out of the box and have an enterprise windows 11 license
