CHUWI Mini PC HeroBox, Intel N100(Up to 3.4GHz,TDP 13W), 8GB LPDDR5 256GB M.2 SSD, Windows 11 Mini Computer, 4K Dual Display/WiFi 6 /BT5.2 /RJ45 Ethernet/VESA/USB 3.0/VGA/HDMI/Up to 2TB SSD

This little computer is a really great PC, and a super deal does everything it says it will, and more! I am using it for a media PC, connected to our big screen TV, with a webcam attached for Zoom meetings, and for playing streaming video. Works great! Starts up almost instantly. Totally silent. Unobtrusive. I see several reviews that say the ethernet port doesn't really work at Gigabit speed. Not true! Mine does. Not sure why they say that. I thought I might have the same issue at first, but turned out to be the ethernet switch it was connected to. I contacted the manufacturer through Amazon and they confirmed that it should, although after careful review of the Amazon listing, it claims only gigabit bluetooth, not specifically gigabit ethernet, but it does both. (Yes, it does have Bluetooth, which I use for a Bluetooth mouse). I don't do gaming, so I can't speak to that. I assume gamers would use bigger boxes. Lots of ports. Compact. Silent. Quick startup. Good storage. Great value. Highly recommend it!

I needed a low-power, silent, fanless computer to run a minecraft bedrock server, and a java server with a total player count across the servers under 10, which this fit the bill perfectly. Swapped out the windows 10 for linux to free up some RAM, I have it connected with gigabit ethernet, so I turned off wifi and bluetooth and it ends up only using ~4watts of power. Update: I removed 1 star because the ssd lasted ~1 year, and the wifi constantly disconnects, so it needs to be on ethernet. They advertise 34C idle, but for me it's more like 44C idle, although it could be different ambient temperature. When it does anything the temperature jumps up, like if someone joins my server it quickly jumps up to 50C and takes a while to come back down to 44C, and If I run an update, it can get up to 70C but it rarely gets hotter than that. Now 70C is totally fine, laptops run much hotter than that, but the wifi is really a problem for me. Half the time the wifi card isn't even detected, and the other half of the time it barely works, where it'll see that wifi exists but usually can't get a website to load. I bought a range extender purely to use the ethernet on this to get a more consistent experience. The ssd that came with it burned out in about a year; I had a script that would do a full backup of the Minecraft servers everyday and kinda forgot about it for ~6 months, but it only got close to capacity. I deleted all but the initial backup and a few recent backups, then changed it to a weekly backup, which freed up almost 150gb, but the hard drive only lasted a few months after that.

This is a very capable mini PC. On the outside you find a very small foot print that is great for those that have limited desk space. From a port point of view there are USB C ports, which is a huge plus for this PC. USB C is the current standard and you always want a PC to have these ports. There is a HDMI port and a VGA port for those that need to support a legacy style monitor. Inside the PC the storage is the only upgradable component. You can replace the existing SSD and also add a 2.5" drive. The 8GB of RAM is adequate for most applications and nothing I tested the PC with had any memory issues. 4K video files played back no problem. And basic gaming for older titles was good as well. Obviously new AAA games will need dedicated graphics processors that this PC doesn't have so don't expect this PC to match a $3000 dedicated gaming PC. Web browsing, Excel, and Word all were very responsive and with 4K video I was able to have a very nice large, good looking display experience. WIFI was average with about 200 meg performance. If you need very fast network connectivity you should use the included 1GB ethernet port. For those that need a small formfactor desktop for productivity and basic entertainment at a very low price point this is an absolute winner. 5 stars!

What a waste of time and money. I was really excited about this and chose it after a lot of careful comparisons between other minipcs. It says it plays 4k smooth. That is a baldface lie, as honest as the screenshots of gaming, which you and I both no this isn't suited for gaming. The picture lies about gaming, the description lies about 4k. It will play 4k in KODI, but it is far from smooth *especially* in scenes panning side to side it seems to drop to about 10 FPS. That itself was a real dissapointment, since even the little low power mini ITX machine I built 8 years ago this was supposed to replace performed better. So I haven't been using the HTPC much, cause it sucks. And while it was sitting there not being used, the HDMI port stopped working. I know this is a hardware problem because it's not limited to either windows or linux which are both installed. HDMI doesn't work in windows, or linux, or even at the bios during bootup. VGA still works but that's useless to me as a media PC on a 4k tv. On the plus side, HDMI worked for at least long enough to get past the return window. So what do I do with this frisbee now?

Cute little mini, the onboard graphics are abysmal but suffice for basic 1920x1080 desktop work but can barely drive a 4K display for anything beyond picture slideshows. Not unexpected for this pricepoint. Wouldn't even try using it for a game setup but would probably do OK for a 1080 media PC. Realtek ethernet and wifi adapters, Intel audio and graphics work in recent Linux and FreeBSD, tested with FreeBSD 13 and Ubuntu 21. Is a decent standalone unix desktop or small KVM/bhyve host. VMware ESX 6.x did not want to boot on it, didn't try 7.x. Windows 10 install was surprisingly clean and did not have any bundled spyware or random vendor bloatware. Customer support was also helpful. However with current firmware (late 2021) the variable speed chassis fan is pegged at max RPM and can not be adjusted which makes it noticeably loud, would need an under-desk mount or such.

I connected it to my LG TV and works perfectly fine. Speed is good and I recommend it if you don't have much to store and work on windows back ground. I would love it if it comes with more bigger SSD.

Es una PC apropiada para uso medio, con win11 nuevas características y rapidez 😀

Got this for my mother and she loves it does everything she needs a computer to do.

Una excelente opción para la escuela ya que es fácil de transportar y muy rápida

I am impressed at how great the video is in this little pc. I streams at 4K. It's small and light perfect to mount behind a TV. I highly recommend. Edit: The headphone jack is recessed and can make plugging headphone /speaker jacks a problem. Please, make the speaker jack flush with outside case. Otherwise, LOVE it.
