Intel NUC 11 NUC11PAHI5 Panther Canyon Mini PC, i5-1135G7, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD, Mini Computers Windows 10 Pro for Business Home Office, Support 8K/WiFi 6/4K Quad Display/Bluetooth 5/Thunderbolt 3

This is a good unit for a really good price. I bought it for my home office and love it. Was also able to update Windows 10 to Wind. 11. No need for a big computer chassis any more. This works great for what I need.

This little NUC has all the power Id ever need for Office, web browsing with way too many tabs open, and the occasional HD movie. I couldnt be happier with it!

I bought the version with 500GB M2 drive and 16GB RAM. My first impressions are excellent. When I fired it up, I was offered a free upgrade to Windows 11, which I declined. Initial W10 set up went smoothly. Installation of Ubuntu 22.04 from USB in dual boot config also went smoothly. The main complication was the use of BitLocker in Windows, but instructions in the Ubuntu installer for dealing with this were clear, and I had no problems. I havent used the unit much, but it appears to be about as quick as I expected. It is quiet, altho not dead silent. So far I have no complaints, and I would recommend it w/o much reservation. I will say if I was doing it over, I would consider buying it unpopulated, as I have limited use for Windows (my daughter might need it for some school work with this unit), and would prefer to control which brand of components is used.

I am security conscious and very concerned buying a PC from a third party. I did not have any problem and the build of the barebone PC was uneventful. My only criticism is that the seller opened the box to put their company sticker on the PC. I believe NEW means an unopened box.

A couple of years ago I switched to a mini Mac with their new chip. Nothing really wrong with the Mac but I hated the navigation and missed the old programs I had used. So I switched the MAC out for this. Running Windows 11 my only complaint is that the system doesn’t have a cap lock indicator and every so often looses the custom configuration of the trackball. Other than that, very happy and would recommend.

Update of my original review - after posting I was contacted by the seller who offered to replace the computer with a new one, after which the problems were resolved, and the replacement computer works as expected.

I was looking for a replacement for my aging third generation i7 desktop computer that I knew would not run Windows 11 when it is officially released. After exhaustive research, I decided to get this NUC11. I chose to buy a unit already configured with RAM, SSD and Windows 10 Pro from Geek+ instead of buying the NUC kit and doing it myself. Intel warrants the NUC for three years but Geek+ warrants the RAM, SSD and OS for three years. By the way, the copy of Windows 10 pro is fully licensed and activated. I read reviews on some other brand micro pcs where people had issues with Windows activation. It is nice to have someone to call for support if needed. If fact, I had a few questions after receiving the NUC so I shot an email off to Geek+s support email address. I was pleasantly surprised when I quickly received a reply back from Cathy who is Geek+s Sales Manager. She saw to it that all of my questions were answered quickly. I would rate the after sale customer service as exemplary.

Works wonderfully. Easy to set up. Great support. I use it for my office work and other personal uses.

I got my hands on the Intel NUC 11 NUC11PAHI5 Panther Canyon Mini PC from Amazon, and oh boy, this little thing is a server superhero! Its so small and cute, yet it packs a serious punch when it comes to running my Discord bot and juggling virtual machines.

This is a good unit for a really good price. I bought it for my home office and love it. Was also able to update Windows 10 to Wind. 11. No need for a big computer chassis any more. This works great for what I need.
