GMKtecMini PC NucBox G5, Intel 12th Gen Alder Lake N97 (up to 3.6GHz), 12GB RAM 256GB M.2 SSD, Home, Business, Office Mini Computer, 4K UHD Dual HDIMI, RJ45-Pink

Easy to setup. Reasonably fast for browsing & streaming, especially for this price point. This is our 2nd purchase, we've been using the 1st reliably for almost 2 years and it's still going strong.

This is a pretty amazing little computer! Although it's tiny and therefore very portable, you obviously need a monitor and keyboard/mouse to go with it. We thought we'd try this as a replacement for the little Lenovo laptop that we've had anchored to a desk for most of it's life anyway, as that laptop isn't upgradable to Win11. This one comes with Win11 Pro, so it should be good for the foreseeable future. It is surprisingly much faster than our little laptop, and has been flawless so far.Getting it up and running was easy, and for routine web browsing and light duty work it barely gets even warm. It easily handles Office Pro applications, and I've even successfully run an architectural CAD program on it. It takes a few seconds or so to render and while I prefer running this software on a computer with a little more horsepower, it's certainly doable. It has also easily handled some photographic image editing. I have not tried video editing or gaming, and my guess is it'll struggle more with these, but assuming you have reasonable expectations it's definitely worth the price paid.Hopefully it holds up as long as the several older laptops I have that are about to be retired with Win10. Two of those started life with Win7 and have been going for years. Time will tell.

My Daughter is homeschooling and this was perfect for her! The color is so cute and the size is perfect and portable!

Given the low price, it should be considered as of the best value, worthy of 5 stars. However, it gets only 4 stars because the Realtek wifi adapter is really subpar. Side-by-side comparison of the wifi transmission speed between this and a comparable laptop (Acer) showed it wasn't even 1/4 of the laptop, despite of excellent wifi signal power. It was only 30 - 70 Mb/s to the router, and Internet download speed was few Mb/s to 25 Mb/s top, while the laptop showed 120-150 Mb/s. An external and better USB wifi adapter is needed. Overall, it is like an old Raspberry Pi on steroid, works very well and for the price, very worthy just for Internet surfing and is a keeper. This review does not cover how it works for other PC uses, but Intel N97 (cpubenchmark score = 5769) is not bad and unless with a terrible motherboard, it should be as good as anything in this class.

A stunningly good deal! Excellent in every way and far exceeding my expectations. The only improvement that comes to my mind would be the provision of more USB ports and a functional USB-C port. I have personally deployed 35 for use in law offices with resounding success. Upon reading the reviews, my observation is that all negative reviews were born of the reviewers lack of experience.

These mini pcs are great for simple home use. It's proof that you don't need an expensive desktop for everyday small task and project work. Also, I have to recommend the customer support I was given by GMKtec. I needed help with some of the updates and was given support that solved my issues quickly.

Are you concerned about internet security? Get a second pc and only use it for you banking and investment accounts. Keep it disconnected from your network unless you are banking or managing your 401k and investment accounts. This is a perfect little box to secure your online banking as a dedicated pc for that purpose.

Perfect little PC running Proxmox for some testing at home. <6W idle with a NVMe drive installed.
