Thank you for a great , detailed review. Just got an AceMagic T8 Plus, which is very similar to this but has an N95 CPU. I came here looking for how to remove the cover (thanks!) and found the T8 Plus has the same issue - and the same solution - with memory (N95 also max = 4800). Thanks again!

Interesting review, and I'm glad you caught the 3200 speed on DDR and after fixing the BIOS setting retested to show the difference. I still wish they could have found a way to put a 2280-sized drive in there as it's getting harder to find replacement drives in that size, but given the price for the lowest end that's probably wanting too much. (As I type this I'm thinking of the new fanless ASUS PN42 which is being sold with 4GB RAM (though it doesn't seem to be in stock yet in most places), and having tried once as an experiment to run Win 10 on a 4GB RAM system, that's just not workable. I know that's not really relevant, but I was looking at prices.)

Its not a big rattling noise, it might be the battery but im not sure if you have any relevant info for this issue. Thanks. Edit: I was able to open it up thanks to your video, thank you. I found the battery had indeed come loose from the adhesive. I stuck it back on as it was still very sticky and also added a small strip of electrical tape over top of it. I have no idea if that is ok to do, but it's good for now.

Great review, just one comment on the SATA SSD temperature which at 40ºC is cited as a positive over hotter NVMe drives. The drive supplied in my unit, an N900-512, doesn't seem to have a real sensor, it reports a fake 40ºC at all times, boot, idle & load, so could be any temperature in reality. Though the comment that slower SATA drives will likely run cooler than NVMe still holds for this type of form factor.

You can make it as heavy as you like by mounting it to a metal plate... Personally I own one and I appreciate its light and small form factor, using it on the field it has to be light in the backpack.

3 HDMI ports is what made me pick it over all other mini PCs (and looking at the reviews, most others agree) -- so no. Also there's no point having external antennas on this PC, since it's not a portable device (you're not going to be carrying it around during use to require the best WiFi connection) and already comes with dual ethernet ports. You're much better off just swapping the Realtek module inside it with a cheap Intel WIFI 6 module to fix reception issues.

@@ziofascistssuckAntenna type and length has a lot more to do with signal strength than realtek vs intel chip. I had to buy a usb wifi adapter with real antennas to get a signal in my bedroom with this unit. That means I'm literally circumventing the internal wifi card that it comes with just to get a signal because the stock "antenna" is two tiny wires taped to the inside of the case. That cheapo wire stuff only works if you are very close to the router.

@@bsd7342 sorry to tell you this, but you wasted your money. You'd be far better off buying a power line ethernet adapter (that would use your house's mains socket to transmit the signal) or WiFi extender to get a better result. Unless you're taking your mini PC back and forth to different locations (like I am), you really don't need to do that. Also I've tried swapping out the Realtek WiFi card in my mini PC for an Intel AX200 from my old laptop and my signal improved significantly even with the same antennas (including less packet loss). Trust me, it does improve the signal.

It didn't really do it for me. I personally think that the little extra to be had from DDR is still worth the extra pennies. M.2 SATA, although fine, is still outshined by NVME. The NVME temps shown in the charts for other boxes, were, for he main rivals, fine and nothing to be concerned about. General temps I liked very much. But if this is aimed at the general consumer then it falls down because when you consider it's size, 3 HDMI ports is overkill and it could even be said that 3 Ethernet ports is unnecessary for many. Then only having USB 3.2 Gen1 ports is a misstep. So many new boxes are showing more GEN2 ports and also more USB ports in general. The lack of just one additional storage slot, whether it be M.2/NVME or SATA is a shame. I would advise that they go back to the basic elements and rethink I/O. There is no reason for them not to have different models based upon the N100 but with differing ports for different needs. With the N100 being more desirable at it's price to performance ratio, the market is getting filled, so vendors need to think carefully before submitting their offerings. Right now, all things considered, if you can catch the right deal on the right day, the Beelink EQ12 wins. They have come a way since the terrible days when they shafted customers and affiliates and put out very poor products. If only Intel would relent on the single channel RAM aspect then the N100 would be even more desirable.

@@franzgucktyoutube I don’t have Prime to test. As for the netflix, 1080p only works in Edge. Tried chrome/firefox and there it’s only 720p. Maybe some user-agent changing plugins to act as Edge could work? My setup is just the extensions from ms store: MPEG-2, VP9, AV1 and HEVC. HBO Max looks like it’s also 1080p in Edge/Firefox/Chrome
