I like your way of vlogging. It's just light, straightforward and very informative. Good Job, keep up the good work. ❤

[@TechMishka]

Thank you so much!

[@philliplbeard1481]

It may be a beast, but it has quality control issues, apparently related to junky power supplies. After nine months, my SEi12 began to have problems emerging from sleep and to *crash to black* at random points, as in important on-line meetings. Rebooting was not easy. Also had a noisy, stressed-out sounding fan 90% of the time. This is several design steps and quality control protocols from really working. Mine had to be classed as junk within a year. No go.

[@TechMishka]

So the power supply got faulty? You can grab a replacement one - specs are pretty common

[@philliplbeard1481]

This is a good guess on my part, not real diagnostics, but thanks for the helpful suggestion! @@TechMishka

[@NghiaNguyenDai]

Very nice review! i'm ordering mine soon

[@TechMishka]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@josephgospa4031]

I'm ordering one right now, so I can have best of both worlds and also to run some benchmark to compare against my existing Ryzen 7 mini PC setups. I recently got a Beelink's Ryzen 7 5800H and Ryzen 7 6800H and both are monsters in performance, when I need to do some serious AAA gaming, I just use my ASUS AMD Radeon RX 6500 XT OC 8GB via ADT Link and enjoy 100+ FPS in 1080p gaming.

[@TechMishka]

Lovely! What enclosure do you use?

[@TechMishka]

Oh, just saw the ADT link : ☺️

[@olliehardy5264]

Hi Joseph, interested in your findings with your comparisons in terms of real life usage? I initially got the ser6 pro, which was great, but was quickly frustrated when I realised my caldigit ts4 wasn't compatible. So I went with the sei12 pro which works great with it. But at the expense of some raw gaming power, I guess. I'm hoping the egpu will overcome this though!

[@eon1911]

I bought this guy and I have no issues editing video in premier, Lightroom, and photoshop

[@TechMishka]

Great to hear! Has lovely performance indeed.

Hi bro , I need your advise [ Beelink SER5 Max, AMD Ryzen 7 5800H ] or [ Beelink SEi12, i5-1235U 10-Core 12-Thread] , which one should i buy - purpose like gaming and 3d works

[@TechMishka]

Both are comparable. I'd probably go for the AMD variant because I have the same CPU on another system and am very happy with it.

[@mohamedyusuffs4388]

@@TechMishka Thank you so much i bought it like few weeks ago, it work like champ

[@plagasx8105]

Is this good for Plex 4k streaming? and transcoding??

[@TechMishka]

Sure.

[@jovinprime]

Mine got the 1240p and i have a 1660 super in a razer core its pretty good

[@TechMishka]

Oh, this is an awesome combo

[@Keiah2Technical]

Can it handle video editing

[@TechMishka]

Yeah, it can. 1080 is good, 4K without an external card is rather challenging.

[@christoofart]

Any big performance bump from the i5-1235 to the 1240?

[@klfighter]

for the too big price, for me take ryzen5500u or 5600h is a better choice for low price.

[@TechMishka]

Yeah, good point

[@danpan11]

Love your review. There are sales right now for €350 on this unit and the SER5 MAX. I don’t care about gaming. Which one would you recommend? Ryzen or Intel?

[@TechMishka]

Ryzen systems are a bit faster lately. But Intel models may have Thunderbolt, which is quite an advantage.

[@danpan11]

@@TechMishka I bought the intel one. Started using it today. Man are these little things FAST.

[@olliehardy5264]

Bir confused as to the power adapter message? This has thunderbolt 4 and therefore does work directly off a caldigit dock or a razer core x egpu for example. Are they saying not to plug any form of external power into the front port, or not to adapt the original PSU into the usb c on the front? Confusing?!

[@TechMishka]

They don't want you to use the port instead if a power adapter.

[@tomaszwaszka3394]

what about FAN NOISE? IS it loud?

[@TechMishka]

You can hear it when the unit is well under load

[@tomaszwaszka3394]

Can it output 4k120hz? Edit: either via HDMI Or Thunderbolt to HDMI.

Unfortunately not.

[@bulentozyigit9576]

What about 4k60hz?

[@bradphil3240]

Hi, how would this perform with video editing using insta360 studio and 4k editing?

This is $400 cheaper than the new Intel NUC12....Crazy!

Yup!

Can i install ubuntu on this machine? If i decide go back to windows is the license on the bios?

So 12450H is better than 1240P?

Similar

[@Daniel-fc8vr]

Hi which dash camera you prefer. 70mai s1 or 70mai m300 or 70mai lite? If you can write from the best to the worst and explain. It will be much better.

[@TechMishka]

They have very similar qualities. I'd go for the lite - I just like it and it has slightly better image quality IMO

[@viktor2474]

Не удается выйти из режима сна ни с передним, ни с задним портом USB, помогите !

[@TechMishka]

Might be some software issue. Disable the sleep mode

[@amdrebataglia]

The bios is UEFI. It's just de-skinned and tbh, it's better as it is than a garbage skin with lots of hidden menus.

[@TechMishka]

Wow, are you sure? What is the model of yours?

[@amdrebataglia]

@@TechMishka beelink mini S12 (N95). Beelink often uses barebone AMI BIOS, it's an UEFI bios (redundant term, but legacy word anyway). Most of the Chinese brands uses the bios like this because it's very lightweight, usually between 8-16MB, while this skinned bios can consume a lot of space (between 16-32MB), like the ryzen 3000-5000 problem with old motherboards with only 16MB. Another reason is that it's easy to implement the same bios in different models with the same SoC. See what happened with Chinese "X99" that most brands cam be modded with huananzhi Ami bios version that has memory Timmings. Even server grade hardware use this type of UEFI. (Supermicro, Lenovo, etc)

[@tonysalinas4439]

Is 300$ a deal for a new one in box

Totally!

[@wrapman1]

It is going to breke down after 1month .cose high TDP, 1st you can hear streng sound from fun and then cpu speed estimate low . you can think this computer not proper cooling system insted of N100 which TDP 6w. i ordered crazy computer change to N100 . it is easy to understand mini pc can not afford to cool more than 10wTDP. N100 is only 6w TDP. soon or latter you will under stand my word.

[@TechMishka]

These devices usually undergo quite serious R&D testing.

ryzen is cheaper but stronger than that intel i have my r7 5800h and it work a lot,

[@TechMishka]

Yup!
