Good

This is a great little computer. Its about as basic as it gets, but that's what I was in the market for. As I age, I've found I barely even use a computer at home for personal stuff at all any more. I have a work laptop that docks to a couple monitors for work from home stuff. I have an extensive steam game library from the old days, but i just don't really have a place in my life for gaming anymore, and i have a Nintendo switch for what little gaming i do. So, I sold my personal laptop and old gaming PC and replaced it with this... Its attached to the back of one of my work monitors, and runs 24/7 as a plex server and network storage computer. I can switch the monitor over to it if i want to, but i will probably just remote into it from my phone for most quick media and file management tasks. It serves up full 4k over wifi no problem. During setup and configuration, it seemed speedy, and responsive enough, and would probably be just fine for a daily use computer for just about everything. It came with Windows 11 pro pre-installed with no bloatware, and setup was super easy. I'm honestly amazed what you can get for so little money, and in a package not much bigger than a deck of cards. I heavily considered getting a "better" mini PC with better graphics, more RAM, etc... but i tried to be honest with myself on my use case, and this is probably better, as it is so efficient for 24/7 mini-server type use. At some point i may try running some basic 3d modeling software of it, as this is about the most demanding thing i can think of that i may still want to do in my personal life, but bottom line, this is a lot of computer for a little money and no space at all. Pretty cool. Note that i was considering using it with my USB-C laptop dock to switch in and out with my work laptop,and the user manual confirmed that the usb-c port is only for power, and its not a thunderbolt port, so that wouldnt work. If you want USB4/thunderbolt, you may need to upgrade a bit more.

I purchased the Nucbox G2Plus Intel N150 Mini PC after a great six-month good experience with the GMKtec Mini PC (12th Gen Intel N97) — and I’m happy to say the Nucbox G2Plus has exceeded my expectations. It’s impressively quiet, compact, and fast, making it ideal for a tidy, minimalist desk setup. Despite its small size, it's surprisingly powerful, handling multiple open applications effortlessly. The 512GB local storage is more than enough for my personal needs, and its overall performance is smooth and reliable. One of the things I love most is its portability. I primarily bought it for personal use, but it’s easy to carry around and set up anywhere, as long as I have access to a monitor. It also works seamlessly with my KVM switch, which is a big plus for anyone who uses multiple systems. A thoughtful touch is the spare blue top case — a small detail that adds customization and value. Overall, a fantastic mini PC that delivers great performance in a compact form

Purchased this for our front end computer to utilize mainly light web browsing and Microsoft Office. I couldn't figure out how it was so cheap by retail comparisons. But I did find that it is using a Windows 7 OS key which has been upgraded to Windows 11. Not theoretically a problem unless maybe you ever have to potentially perform a factory reset. It does allow saving you money that way so not complaining. Can't hear it at all, is very responsive to mouse and keyboard (wireless). And that is good because I also mounted it to the back of the monitor to keep it safe and off the desk. So if you're looking for a great little and inexpensive office type computer, grab this one up.

Excellent. I recommend it.

This thing is tiny, but packs a good punch, its perfect to run my home server off, does the job for browsing through the internet and hosting a plex server, customisable and very discreet, you can put this anywhere and not many people would notice it,
