Just plug in a keyboard, mouse and connect to a monitor and you are actively online in seconds. That is the greatest thing I can say. Am on satellite for my internet and the speed is amazing. I can actually watch videos without pauses. A lot of power in such a small package.

I am not a gamer. As an older senior citizen and former businessman, this was my thirtieth computer purchase. The first word that comes to mind is, WOW! The fact that this sits in the palm of my hand is amazing. Windows 11 Pro, 16 gigs of ram and a very fast hard drive is what I was looking for. Set up was shockingly easy. I attached my USB controlled wireless keyboard and mouse and then my monitor via the available HDMI. Microsoft wanted to take control of managing my PC via their defaults. You do get the opportunity to set up a local account, which is what I prefer and did.

Generally speaking, it is a great product. However, I was not able to get the PC to recognize the HDD I wanted to add. Thinking at first that the HDD was defective, I returned it to Amazon. After a while I got another HDD, different brand, and had the same problem. I concluded that the PC itself must be the problem so I contacted customer support via email. They responded fairly quickly (within a day) and worked with me trying to resolve the issue. When nothing seemed to work, the conclusion was again that there was something wrong with the PC, perhaps just the HDD cable. By this time I was beyond the return window for Amazon so I let the customer support people know that. At that point the I was told I would be sent a replacement PC which came within a few days. No issues installing the HDD in that PC and everything works well. (Of course, I had to return the defective one, paying the shipping cost myself.)

PROS:

The Geekom minicomputer works as advertised! If you didnt know you were working on it, you probably wouldnt believe it. It loads super-fast and runs smoothly. I would recommend it to anyone.

I replaced a HP all in one desktop pc with this mini pc. Bought a 32” curved monitor, mounted the Geekom Mini IT8 pc to the back of it. The configuration is space saving and clean looking. The only negative thing about this mini pc is the fact that the USB 3.0 ports are in short supply, there are only 3, but easily remedied with a USB 3.0 four port strip. Overall, very satisfied with this purchase.

Worked 5 days. Now dead. Wont boot. Amazon makes returns too complicated now days. I dont have a car to go to one of their drop off sites. Guess I just have to eat this. Learned my lesson!

I purchased the GEEKOM Mini IT8 PC for my grandma and its perfect for her, but now Im thinking that I need to purchase one for myself. I started out by looking at used HP EliteDesk mini computers, but for the price and features, this one quickly moved to the top of my list.

I gotta say I was just getting this mini pc to not spend alot. My old gaming pc was dying and I needed a quick replacement. I wanted to go cheap!! I worked with mini pcs in the past and to be honest they were awfully slow!! But these are really nice! I am impressed how great this little box runs everything. Windows 11 is really nice!! Its just amazing how this pc I can hold in my hand is better then my old tower. Great for a home office. I run 3x printers and 2x 30 monitors and it handles everything easy!!

I received this little gem last week. This would be my 2nd one that I have purchased. Not really much to say, it is an Intel Mini-PC. But this little guy has some power. I am able to play some games on it, run Office applications, as well as a Digital Movie Poster computer. The other one was purchased strictly for that task.
