> 3 dayIt works okay, although it goes to sleep at times without my permission. Its small, so that worked well on my small desktop. The HDMI and USB ports were nice and enough for my needs. Its okay for the state of current personal computers.

Greater than one weekIf you are looking for a computer for a home media server, then you should buy one of these. There is no need for a graphics card since this mini pc has an Intel i5-8279 which has Intels Iris Plus Graphics 655. That supports up to 3 monitors. Also, when it comes to using this CPU for transcoding on a media server, I have read that people managed to hit 24 simultaneous 1080P to 720P transcodes or more. I wont be using it for that many, but it shows how good these processors are.

> 3 dayThis PC is small so it can fit almost anywhere. It’s powerful enough to play a lot of less demanding video games. Works amazing for emails and Microsoft office. It comes with windows 11 and has the latest features that that offers. I’m really happy with purchase.

> 3 dayPC was delivered in a bag (not a box!) with no cushioning or protection whatsoever. The unit was already used and tied to another person’s account. Was supposed to be a brand new unit. Can’t use the pc at all and am very frustrated.

> 3 dayThe SEI8 Beelink mini pc is a great equipped mini pc. The included instructions were very easy to follow and the qr codes in the manual linked me out to additional tutorials and setup videos I was able to have the mini pc up and running and to the home screen within 10 minutes of boot up. Windows 11 runs great on this computer and it boots up very fast with the 500 gb ssd that is pre-installed. Multi tasking had been seemless with the 16 gb of ram that is included I have been able to have many browser windows open and also using other applications at the same time without closing the browser without any issues of slowing down. Gaming on this computer has been excellent as well I have not played games in years but this machine runs them very well everything from emulators. The sonic colors game, steam games everything seems to run smoothly and looks great. The amount of use ports makes it easy to use multiple peripherals such as mouse, phone charger, keyboard etc. Whether you like games, music production , work and productivity this mini pc seems to be a great setup and a great value!

> 3 dayI quickly needed a backup computer after my old desktop (backup) failed. Im a software developer so I cant tolerate a system outage when meeting deadlines. I didnt want another tower and was interested in a small factor computer like the NUC. Searching Amazon I found this Beeline. Reviews looked favorable. The specs were good. Even though it was Intel I5, it would meet my needs. Win11 Pro, wifi, SSD, HDMI made it a complete package. Noticed that I could add another SSD. Price was good and I could get it the next day were all pluses.

> 3 dayI previously purchased this unit with Windows 10 Pro on it. I convinced my brother to purchase the same unit SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE it was advertised as coming with Windows 10 Pro. Instead, his unit came with Windows 11 Pro installed. I have been pleased with my Windows 10 Pro unit, but Windows 11 might as well be malware with its mandatory creation of an online Microsoft account, completely rearranged desktop environment, etc. I had to use a hack to bypass the mandatory account creation.

> 3 dayI had an old desktop that need replaced that I needed to connect to a 65 in 4k tv and my XP-Pen drawing tablet. Ive tested and it works great. The small profile is perfect for my new desk. The video I uploaded shows a video being played on my 65inch tv while other screen is still on. I have my headphones plugged in and it sounds great. Overall I definitely love the this mini PC and has replaced my old desktop perfectly.
