Pros

This micro pc has good specs for general browsing and media consumption. Perfect for office work and streaming video. Decent spec too, with 8gb ram and a 256gb ssd.

Trigkey website support allows to download win 10 installation as a zip file. Extract win 10 files to a usb drive (about 9 gb) restart pc from usb drive and win 10 installed to new nvme drive in minutes. It runs windows 11 seamlessly, as well as all o...  Read More

Has wifi and bluetooth ready to go. Two usb sockets on the front are ideal for connecting keyboard / mouse. Has wi-fi and an ethernet socket on the back too. I really like the bracket that means i can attach it to the back of our monitor.

Was a little sceptical about ours its capability. All in one place with a small footprint. For such a compact device, it is unbelievably good.



Cons

First impressions were favourable but didn't last. Tried different linux flavours, same result. Will probably now go for a ‘known’ name such as msi, asus or gigabyte.

It’s an absolute steal at £189 (at the time of review) check as it is just as good as my laptop that cost me almost £500.


Was a little sceptical about ours its capability considering the the size and the price.

Shipping

Competitiveness


Decent spec too, with 8gb ram and a 256gb ssd.


Its a zippy little thing, uses far less power and some 5times faster than the old office pc, all for a price of £159, whats not to like.


But installing a nvme pcie 3 drive is a no no, it will only it seems take a m2 sata which runs at the 550mb which is a shame as...  Read More

    It came with a windows 11 os installed which booted quickly and did all the windowsy things you would expect but this was overwritten with the vsxi software


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
