Mini PC 13th Gen Intel Alder Lake-N150 Processor (up to 3.40GHz) MINI S13 Mini PC Windows 11 Home, 12GB RAM 500GB SSD Business Mini Desktop PC, 4K Dual Display, HDMI/WiFi 6/BT5.2/RJ45 2.5G

Rock Solid as a platform for Home Assistant !! Really easy to get up and running and been running 7x24 for 8 months without any issues. I am running with several hundred devices, loads of integrations, Node Red, zigbee2MQTT, MQTT etc and barely using 10% of available resources. Giving me loads of room for future tasking. It is silent as far as I can tell, low powered and I have it on an uninterruptible power supply along with supporting systems so it is always up and running. I have not detected any heating issues and if there is cooling going I can't detect it. I changed the setup so that it always started back up after a power outage just in case :-)

I've been on the lookout for a mini PC that doesn't compromise on performance, and, well, the Beelink MINI-S12 Pro exceeded my expectations. In my experience, compact devices often come with the trade-off of reduced power, but this one just kind of demolished that notion. With its 12th Gen Intel Alder Lake-N100 Processor, it smoothly handles multiple applications at once, which is exactly what I needed for my home office setup. Setting it up was pretty straightforward, and I was pleasantly surprised by how seamlessly it integrated with my existing monitors; the HDMI connectivity was a breeze. The 16GB RAM combined with the 500GB SSD means I'm not twiddling my thumbs waiting for files to load or apps to open—everything's just snappy and responsive. I was particularly impressed with the WiFi 6 capability. It's something I didn't initially consider a necessity, but, actually, the enhanced speed and lesser congestion have made my workflow noticeably more efficient. Plus, with Bluetooth 5.2 and Wake-on-LAN features, it feels like Beelink thought of everything to make connectivity and usability top-notch. A little story to share—just a few days into using it, I had what I call a 'gadget geek's joy moment.' You know, those little victories where everything works together beautifully? That's when I decided to add an external drive for my media files, and, honestly, the transfer speeds just blew my mind. In my view, this tiny powerhouse supports growth, and it inspires confidence in expanding your setup. In summary, the MINI-S12 Pro is not just about the right specs—it’s about delivering a fantastic user experience housed in a sleek and compact form. If you’re in need of a mini PC that offers a lot more than just the basics, this might just be what you're looking for.

I don't often write reviews, but this little gem is very impressive for the price. Good wireless connectivity, LAN port, dual HDMI outputs, 16Gb RAM, 500Gb storage, 4 USB ports, Win 11 Pro and it's QUIET. If I was to be picky, I'd say it could do with more USB ports, but got around this by sticking a USB hub in one of the rear ports. Also, the front USB ports are upside down triggering my OCD. Runs Photoshop, Dreamweaver and CorelVideo Studio well, and streams video in HD.

Good little mini PC. Works well but not as many connection ports as some machines of this type

This was bought to replace an earlier (different model) Mini-PC which had suddenly failed, refusing to boot. Amazon gave me a refund even though it was out of warranty, for which I was grateful. Comes complete with Windows 11 Pro, 16gb memory, and a 500gb (476 actual) SSD. There is a spare memory slot. For its spec, it runs very well. It doesn't have a problem running Visual Studio - not as fast as a 'real' development system, but perfectly usable. It is also used to remote into remote systems using Remote Desktop - it is perfect for this. According to HD Tune Pro, disc performance averages 405 MBS with an access time of .236 MS. I am very happy with the system, and think it is good value for money.

I could've written a glowing review too, soon after receiving the unit; it ran well, nice and quiet, and despite one bad USB port, which I chose just to not use, I was pretty happy with it. However, 11 weeks and 5 days later, it's dead. I've tried all the troubleshooting steps on the manufacturers forums, nothing. No lights, no sounds, no video output. From what I can tell, this is pretty common with these units. Looking at the warranty terms and process, I think I'm just going to write off the £200+ I spent on this, and replace it with something more reliable. Caveat emptor.

If you're only doing email, browsing, and office work, this tiny device is all you require. It has a better specification than most low-end laptops, comes with Windows 11 Pro, is quiet, uses minimal power, and is reasonably priced. Windows 11 boots quickly and runs well but it's easy enough to install Linux. It's probably too slow to play action games released in the past few years, but older or emulated titles would be fine. Recommended.

There is nothing to dislike about this amazing mini PC. Picture showing the old and the new! I have not rated it for gaming because that's not my thing. I stream 4K UHD media so graphics resolution is highly important to me and this Beelink is the Bees-Knees. Every-day computing does not disappoint either. The power supply in the old PC was rated at 750 Watts equivalent to a one bar fire. At only 36 Watts, this one can stay on 24/7. Setting up was simple. I fitted my old Win 10 hard drive in a caddy, connected with a USB3.2 cable and copied all of my Apps, Programs, Media and Registry Data from the C & D drives to the Beelink. Job done in record time without having to re-install individual Apps! Now running my old PC on Win 11 very nicely.
