NiPoGi Mini PC, 12GB DDR4/ 128GB ROM Ιntel Celeron J4125 Processor Windows 10 Pro Micro Desktop Computer, Support Triple Display, Gigabit Ethernet, Dual Band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.2, 4K HD

The media could not be loaded.  Ready system. I like anything ready-made. As someone who likes to consume fast and is impatient, I buy ready-made everything and now I bought a ready-made PC. I bought it because it is portable because I do digital work and sometimes I need a computer with me. If you have knowledge about computers, you can transfer this computer to a small screen and do all your work.I had an experience that I can compare. I recently bought a mini pc with i5-10400 processor which is 1/2 times more expensive from a major computer manufacturer. But in most of the work I do, there is no noticeable difference. I had my doubts about the Celeron J4125 processor, but it has enough power for word processing and web browsing.But there are many things I love about this system. It has a fan and I find it no louder than other computer systems. I have 3 USB ports and I've found that at least one of them is open even when the computer is off. So I can use it to charge my phone. I used USB to create a backup to a USB3.0 drive and the write speed was around 600 to 700 MB/s, which is really good performanceThere's something else great! Performance of the wireless adapter... I placed the computer close to my 5G wireless router and using the Speed ​​test site the wireless download speed was 300MB/s. This is the same speed I measured when using the 1GB wired Ethernet adapter.It has two HDMI display ports and a VGA port. I use the VGA port for a keyboard and mouse and it works fine. It also has an internal bay that can hold a 2.5 inch SSD or hard drive. So when I want to strengthen it, I can easily buy an SSD and add it.I'll admit I'm skeptical I could buy a PC that's good enough to run Windows 10 for around £250 (it was discounted when I bought it). But so far it has exceeded my expectations. Because I think I bought all these features, installed and licensed windows, case design and design at an economical price.I will probably buy more of these in the future.

Great for the price. Bluetooth mini keyboard and mouse work great with it making it simple to take from place to place.

Although surprisingly powerful and capable, this one runs HOT even with minimal tasks running ie. a web browser with 2 tabs open.About 6months after purchase, it failed to boot entirely, despite repeated attempts inc from bootable usb.AVOID, a renewed desktop will be more powerful and reliable.

Bought as a replacement for a mini PC that became defective within a few months. It's light, small, cheap, and appeared to be doing the job my teacher wife asked if it.But one day short of four months in and the PC has lost power.I am now attempting to get technical support from these slopey-shouldered ne'er do wells but this is like trying to find a clock in a Las Vegas casino. If anyone buys one of these PCs I hope for their sake it goes wrong within 30 days or not at all.Enraging, it really is.

TLDR;Great daily driver. 'Just works' and will probably keep 'just working'. Brilliant for the price. I want another one!I bought the NiPoGi (12GB Ram) about a month ago as a tempory replacement for a powerful desktop that went bang during storm Arwen. I quickly choose the NiPoGi based on price, hardware mix, delivery time but, really, the mind numbing thought of looking through Amazons second page of offerings caused my finger to click buy now on this item thus allowing me time for more coffee. My expectations where not high and most probably my impatience would result in another item in my 'Amazon "Why did I buy that" shelf of shame'.I was initially concerned that the wee machine might have thermal issues and that it might not run Win 10 (supplied and activated) and daily apps smoothly. I was also slightly concerned that the build quality might not be as good as more expensive mini PCs. So this was to be a stop gap machine while I built another when parts are more sensible priced and availability is better. I planned then to use the NiPoGi as small network server to satisfy the demands of my (too) many Raspberry Pi's and SBC'sOn first boot everything came up as expected and I find the machine quite capable and very responsive. Youtube videos play at 4K with no issues whatsoever, the on board Intel graphics kept up fine. Multi tab browsing was no issue using Chrome, Edge and Firefox. So a great little 'daily driver'. LibreOffice - No problem. This should be the end of the review but the machine is just too cute not to play with further.I installed a 1TB solid state drive and installed Linux on the machine. I choose Debian Linux. The install went very easily but I did forget to 'install propietry drivers' (non-free) so had to retrospectively install drivers for the wireless/BT chip (RTL8221). Anyone reading this who wishes to try out Linux (you should) might be best served by Ubuntu as it takes care of all of this for you.I'm an experienced Linux user but it has been several years since using Linux as a desktop (graphical) machine and I am surprised and delighted by how far Linux windows managers have come. I installed the KDE window manager (which used to be resource intensive) and spent a few hours customising. For those that do not know KDE is very customisable (far more so than Gnome, Windows or Mac) and it was not long before I had a stunning desktop with transparent windows, wobbly windows (the biggest advance in computing since Enigma), virtual desktops and a complete development environment for programing - which does require a bit of grunt under the hood and wee NiPoGi has not faultered once.Installing the extra SSD was very easy and instructions are included to help open the case, the whole procedure took 2 minutes and only required a small philips screw driver.As for build quality. I initially convinced myself the PC had a metal case despite the seller being quite clear that it is plastic. It is well made, well built and I have no concerns about longevity.On windows I did find the fan would come on a bit too much. It is not noisy but it is noticably when the machine is sitting on the desk right in front of you. It is not loud by any means but noticable. Given dust build up I would expect noise to increase as it always does when fans get mucky. On Linux, I only notice the fan ramping up when doing really heavy lifting. Just to be clear - i have single board computers with tiny fans that make as much noise. NiPoGi is not silent but certainly not invasive either.Dual booting Linux was easily achieved, so I still have the installed windows 10 available on the supplied M.2 drive. Great if you want to take your first tentative steps into the world of Linux or other open source OS without going through virtulisation.Thermally I am surprised by how cool the core stays. I thought this would be a warm running machine but it is not. It runs below 50C (CPU die temp) most of the time and rarely goes above 60C when working hard. I would recommend sitting the mini PC vertically on the desk as this really makes a huge difference to cooling and fan activation.My conclusions are many.Firstly, KDE wobbly Windows are just the coolest thing you will ever see and, actually, the fact that such resource intensive eye candy runs smoothly and does not impact on the overall performance is just great. Normally, I will play with such trivia for a few minutes then turn off but it is great to have a bit of extra grunt in the machine to make boring tasks ... wobble. Coming from the days of interacting with computers over CRT VT100 terminals I am starting to learn that eye candy is really quite nice, it gives you a smile when working hard on frustrating tasks.The machine that wee NiPoGi replaced was a powerful energy hungry machine. I can do almost all the same tasks with NiPoGi taking a maximum of 15 Watts. I have freed a lot of desk space too.I don't do benchmarking but do closely monitor system stats especially when doing useful work stuff. I frequently have many browser tabs open, VSCode with too many files and extensions, compilations running and the machine keeps up with me just fine. I don't think this varient of NiPoGi would satisfy gamers but this is not a gaming machine by any means. If a (desktop) machine is slow to respond or not fluid I get quite annoyed but NiPoGi is still on my christmas card list, subjective as that is.The machine has been rock solid. It sits running all of the time and even if working on my Windows box I will have terminals open on NiPoGi. No crashes, no problems waking monitors, no problems!Needless to say I am an established, proud and well practiced geek and I am absolutely delighted to be able to throw Linux on a new machine (rather than last decades hand-me-downs) and see it's GUI in full glory. Experience has taught me that hardware does have character and quirks and sometimes a machine is just unfreindly or troublesome. I have firmly made freinds with wee NiPoGi and just know it is going to be a great trouble free companion.For the price I am delighted, I feel the machine is far more capable than I expected and, more importantly, it is very useful wether you are a geek or just want to use Windows to send Emails, browse the web or push your obsolete political opinions and cat videos to as many social accounts as possible.Most likely I will buy another.

*** UPDATE ***The seller has now reached out to me and apologised for the problem and offered further compensation. I can accept that hardware and gadgets fail from time to time, what counts is how well your issue is addressed. It's great when you get good customer service and in this case that is very much appreciated from both Amazon and the seller, thank you :-)*** ORIGINAL REVIEW ***This is the second mini PC I’ve had in the last 5 months. The first had a fault with the Ethernet port after only a few weeks (different branded item but exact same machine), seller provided a refund. The second (this item) failed after only 4 months, SSD failure. The seller “OYL” failed to respond to email but Amazon did refund. Buyer beware, these mini PCs aren’t necessarily going to last, maybe I was just unlucky, who knows.
