Beelink Novo processador Intel N5095 de 11 geração (até 2,9 GHZ), mini PC, mini computador com 8 GB DDR4 RAM/SSD SATA M.2 de 256 GB, suporta HDD estendido e SSD/4K 60FPS/HDMI…

I don’t usually leave reviews. But felt compelled to for this mini pc. I paid 150 for this with very low expectations. Originally when 1st booting it up I was unimpressed. It took it a few hours to install all the updates. But once the updates were installed, wow it ran fast and I was impressed. I upgraded the ram to 16gb and installed a 512Gb ssd. I honestly didn’t notice a big difference in performance with 16gb vs 8gb as it is single slot not dual slot. All in all I paid $210 for mini pc and ram and ssd. I was able to stream 4k video in on YouTube at 60hz. The minis display resolution I was able to push to 120hz at 1080p. Xbox game pass online streamed fast and I didn’t notice any lag. It will struggle a little bit the more tasks your doing as this is a low end processor but I knew that when I purchased it. I needed a main computer for everyday use, streaming and cloud gaming and word and Excell. And it does all of that really well. Reading reviews I’ve seen some of these have died within months, I’m hoping to get a couple years, I’ll update my review if it dies quickly. Last remarks, a license of windows 11 cost almost as much as this PC, for the price and what you get it’s a great machine. Good job Beelink!

Update: built in wifi stopped working and dropped down to 0.29 mbps rendering it unusable. via internet using wifi, ethernet port fixed this and I was getting 600 mbps hardwiring it using ethernet. I purchased a $10.00 external usb wifi adapter off Amazon to bypass the built in one and I’m getting 250 mbps. Beware the built in Intel wifi card is trash and stopped working after 1 day. Other than that the machine is working really will. And still worth it for the price.

I use this as computer access in my work shed. 2 monitors and sound through a Bose system, works perfect.

Bought to put at my friends house, sat with open air flow in a clean environment, never handled after installation until issues when it started shutting down on it’s own for about a week, then a few boots resulting in frozen bios screen with artifacts which should help assure folks we’re not talking about suspend or hibernation.. Now it just stays in an endless loop cycling it’s power, never brings up a power. I’ve Reset cmos, tried other power supplies. Perhaps if I disassemble it I’ll find the problem but I shouldn’t have to with a device this young. I’m a retired computing engineer, saying this to reinforce that this isn’t someone who can’t reset it. Disappointing.

UPDATE: See the picture for the actual problem and fix. The rubber button cover used over the power switch was the culprit. Notice the right side has a flat edge that is supposed to hold in place but it that it has rotated slightly and was now sitting over the edge of it’s retainer (plastic tab on the case). This caused it to put pressure on the power switch, almost enough to push it, some vibration or a temperature change would cause it to push and reset to stick into a rebooting loop. Since I rotated it into the proper position a few days ago I have had no more problems. It was screwy from day one but seems find now.

I was a bit skeptical about making this purchase since I’ve been working in IT for the last 18 years and I have always built and used my own rack-mounted machines. This has been a hassle since so much has changed with the components being harder to find and motherboards forcing you to install the newer operating systems. I’ve given in to finding an easier and simpler solution, and not only that, with this solution, it’s much smaller, and more convenient to say the least, and it uses the latest components e, g., SSD drive and DDR 4 memory. This brings me to this little gem and the ones like this that are being sold on Amazon. I can now buy a little monster like this that has an I7 processor, 8, 16, or 32GB of DDR, and a 200 or even 500GB SSD drive, for around 600 to 800 dollars, or maybe more. But before I do that I started with this one, a much cheaper new 11 Generation Intel N5095 Processor (up to 2.9GHZ), Beelink Mini PC with Windows 11 pro for around $200. No building on my part and its compact size make it so easy to install. Using my own screws, I’m using it for my home theater computer and have it screwed to the back of my system rack, out of sight, and conveniently located. I can’t say enough as to how much this has saved me time and money and so far, this has performed flawlessly for the last few days, so I’ll have to come back and update this review after a few months and let you know if it’s still working. It’s built like a tank and the OS install was very easy and only took a few minutes. I was up and running online and googling very quickly. At this point, I highly recommend this little gem and I intend on buying a few more like it, depending on how long it lasts and how well it performs. Out goes the rack-mounted computers and in with new small powerful computers.
