Pros & Cons
Pros
Great for normal daily work/school use and for streaming audio/video less than 4k resolution. Both the exterior and interior feel pretty refined. Great for dj work, so easy to carry to a gig.
The machine has enough overheard to easily run a virtual machine of a firewall software. It has the ability to use bitlocker. Containers and installed pi-hole and unbound. But for a htpc or an inexpensive home server device running docker containers o... Read More
Cons
This unit (n100) has no business running the latest version of windows 11. Now it is dead. Reset everything that could be reset.
Highlights
Quality
It turns out my reservations were unfounded as both the quality and performance exceeded my expectations.
Gently hold the disk in position and tighten the screws on the connector board.
The integrated graphics don't support hdr, which is a shame but not unexpected with an n100.
This mini pc is ok for viewing videos, but it is barely adequate for any 3d gaming or rendering.
Price
Overall, i find this package amazing for the price.
For only $150, this mini pc comes with windows 11 and it meets all my need to watch movie, surf online, store personal document.
2 modules cost around $90 to $100 whether they are sata or nvme.
The confusing number of inexpensive mini pcs leaves the beelink mini s12 pro buried under the others.
Competitiveness
Compare this to a similar beelink model eq12 that has ddr5 ram for a bit more money.
This is a new intel design, the n100 celeron, that is slightly faster and runs cooler than earlier versions.
It is not possible to do that with the somewhat more expensive ddr5 and nvme minis that use the n100.
Intel's uhd graphics is good, but not great compared to what amd offers.

The secure boot state is currently off which could be a potential area of concern for users focused on security though the system has windows defender application control in audit mode and device encryption enforced for better data protection

If possible get this with 16gb ram because that is the maximum
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
It costs about 33 for a 16gb ram module to upgrade this so it is worth spending 10 to 20 extra and buying the 16gb version
