Truly great product for the price. Well built in a slim design concept. I truly like its performance in which I brought an additional one with larger storage...I created two VMs in which Ubuntu is running as well as VMS operating system. The compact design makes it flexible in which it is convenient for travel.

I love this little thing. It's small enough to put pretty much anywhere. I used the included mount to attach it to the back of my TV.

The PC's primary use for me is as a HTPC and it works great! It's replacing a 4k streaming stick. I have it connected to a 4k TV and it has no issues playing 4k media. I mostly stream movies through Kodi, which runs pretty slow on most streaming sticks. This mini PC handles Kodi like it's nothing!

This PC runs Windows 11 and is able to receive the latest updates. I had the PC hooked up to a power meter and under full load it was hitting around 23 watts max.

I recommend this Beelink S12 Pro Mini PC!

I needed to replace a failing laptop and chose to with this for a replacement. I use it primarily with my 3d printer and laser engraver and it works great. It's fast and responsive. It works great for surfing the web and watching YouTube It's small size is great and takes up very little room. I didn't have any issues connecting to my wifi or Bluetooth. So far so good. Worth the price in my opinion.

How is this possible. $169 for this computer, 3.4GHz, 16GB RAM and a M2. 512 SSD. Not only that but comes with Win11? How do they make any money on this, it feels too good to be true. It was such a good deal, I'm like what can i lose, so i order this mini computer. Setup was really easy. Bought a blue tooth keyboard and mouse too for $15 and i have a good media computer for my TV. It's NOT a gaming computer so wouldn't buy for that, but will work good for most everything else. Also seems fast booting and everything i wanted. I would recommend and would buy this again in a heartbeat. I just got it so this isn't a long term review, but so far this is amazing and works good. EXTREMELY GOOD DEAL for the price.

never hear it running. i use it for sims 4 and it runs smooth. i leave things open while playing and its totally fine. i wasnt sure on getting it at first but its great for the price.

Working perfectly, includes Windows 11 Pro fully activated. I use it with two monitors and a usb hub for extra ports, running smoothly regular office tasks, ideal for light to mid computing work, I even run a Win10 virtual machine with in this little well-optimized pc. If you got one and want to connect wired earphones with mic and volume buttons you will probably find that the mic doesn't work, but that is related to the standard of the audio card in the pc, I just doesn't support functionalities of all types of earphones, you should use earphones with only the mute button (no volume buttons) and that's it, It'll work without problems, or get and external audio card that separate audio and mic, or can just use bluetooth earphones.

I have now purchased 3 of these small Beelink PCs and one from a different vendor with the same specs, but likely manufactured in the same Chinese factory. Two are used as camera monitors at our church and two as a PC for remotely-managed radio controllers.

They are partially loaded with WIndows 11, which requires 1/2hr or so to complete the upload and setup... possibly not different than other Windows 11 systems. There are 4 USB ports, 2 HDMI ports, a RJ-45 port and a 12vdc power port. Wireless and Bluetooth work well. I have not specifically tested the full functionality of the various ports, other than to say that they work very well for my light-to-medium duty use. The OS is much faster than the systems they replaced in all cases.

Handy for my use, the box contained a bracket and screws that can be put on the PC case. The bracket holes match holes on the back of small monitors intended for a wall mount. My church monitors were mounted on a wall mount and the screw holes were filled, so I used a couple of zip ties to mount the PC to the existing wall mount. Inside the box were 2 HDMI cables, one long and one short. The short one worked fine and reduced the cable clutter behind the monitor.

The two that are working as radio controllers are remote and difficult to get to, so reliability is important. Both are set to logon upon boot and run the specific programs that are needed to control the radios. The system bios has a setting that will power on the system when power is applied to the power supply. Thus, when the power goes down and is reapplied, the system will boot and system will run. This should prevent us from having to drive 90 round trip miles to the site when there is a power failure. An added plus for powering this system is that it runs on 12vdc. Our radios also operate on 12vdc, so this should allow us to run these PCs remotely and on solar power without having to introduce 110v AC. It's early in the life of these, but thus far, both are running without a failure.

I only have one gripe with these, and honestly it was tested with a same-spec system from another vendor (however by the looks of the system, it was manufactured in the same factory and has a different sticker on the front). I wanted to drive 2 1080p monitors from 1 of these PCs. The specs say that it will drive 2 monitors at 4k and I expected it to drive 2 1080p displays with ease. Our camera system uses a web browser to display the camera feeds. When I set it up with 8 camera feeds on each monitor, the system simply choked after a few minutes with very slow display speed and slow response to mouse and keyboard inputs. These PCs use shared memory so there is no dedicated monitor card with high memory. I suspect a nice monitor card would likely cost more than the price of the device. This is the reason I now have 2 instead of 1 of these.

I've purchased two of these machines and both work great straight out of the box. It was super easy to get set up, and the product even comes with HDMI and DisplayPort cables for you to use.

I use these for a home media server and as a secondary gaming PC. The home media server was simple to install and needs no maintenance. As a gaming PC, it can handle older games that aren't graphically intensive, like some older adventure games. It can handle moderately demanding games though, I frequently run Garry's Mod, Fallout 3, and Killing Floor on it with no slowdowns or lag. I haven't tried anything past 1080/60fps however so if you're seeking a product that can do that, I'd recommend some of the other higher-tiered Beelink products.

This is a great product that I can foresee myself purchasing again if I ever need another home terminal.
