Pros & Cons
Pros
Pc has 16gb of ddr4 memory (in one slot) and a 512gb ssd. Has windows 11 pro already installed. Easy to setup and get running.
As a basic computer it is pretty darn good. It is good enough for classic gaming and some of the newer games. Overall, its a great little pc for anything but gaming.
It has multiple ports including usb-a, usb-c, rj45 lan, a 3. Mm headphone jack. Has enough connectivity for an htpc.
Cons
Had to return the product.
Highlights
Quality
Clean system with no bloatware, ran a full scan using avg, bitdefender, and windows defender (offline).
Videos play smoothly, and the picture quality is great.
During a simple burn-in test it hit a full 85c within about 30 seconds, the fan maxed out, and the cpu began throttling.
Confusing design - they put tape over the cpu heatsink, and on top of the case to limit airflow out of the mini-pc case.
Price
For this great price i was amazed at how efficient it was.
I think this is an amazing value

Would have been nice to have 16gb ram, but its good enough for the price.
Packaging/appearance
There were no items in the package that were missing or damaged.
The box doesn't come with a mouse or keyboard, but i just used a mouse/keyboard set and plugged in the usb receiver.
The downside is that there is a chip that came with this box and i have no idea what it is for.
Competitiveness
Overall, i think this is a great alternative to a laptop.
Connecting via either ethernet port or wifi results in comparable speeds as my main pc.
Overall i'm happy with the pc and think it's a good choice over the intel boxes that are in similar (or sometimes more) price brackets.
The ryzen 3 chip is much better than any of the intel n-95 n100 n97 chips
