I purchased this for my three young boys. I setup a media center and homework station for them off to the side of our living room. I mounted this mini PC on the back of a 40" Vizio TV. This mini PC is quite powerful. I haven't purchased a new PC in about 5 years and was pleasantly surprised at how quick this PC actually is. My last purchase was a Dell i7 of some sort from 2018. This new PC absolutely crushes my last PC on the benchmarks and it is simply snappy fast and quite noticeable even when doing simple tasks.I purchased this during Cyber Week and got an excellent deal. I think for the price, there likely isn't anything out there that is remotely comparable. This little PC is a beast.I do find the cooling fans to be a bit noisy when the PC is under heavy load, but for our uses, we hardly ever stress the system enough to begin with. The Ryzen 7 graphics are pretty good, and it will run most games on reduced settings. I personally have not tested too many modern games on this unit as of yet, but it does really well with the slightly older games that I might regularly play.The case seems quite solid and this PC is really small. Even though it is small, it still has more than enough in and out ports for most users. I have had zero issues with the PC so far, not a single hanging mouse or even a stutter. This is an excellent little machine in my opinion.

Retired programmer here with 50 years dealing with PCs. This review is not for avid gamers, but targets users that want an excellent home computer.After years of setting up ATX (big case) systems for family, friends and coworkers, I can say I've happily transitioned to mini PC's after recommending Beelinks to my brothers and now purchasing my own. The SER8 had the specs that demonstrate a very capable PC with high speed data processing in every area that counts: memory, cpu, gpu, USB, SSD and monitor support. Along with my purchase, I bought a 4TB M.2 SSD drive for the second M.2 slot in the machine. The 1TB M.2 drive that comes with the PC acts as my boot drive and the 4TB acts as a NVR storage location for my home cameras. Installation of the drive was easy after figuring out that the 4 screws on the bottom are hidden underneath little rubber gromets. The only other additional thing to purchase if you have lot of USB devices (camera, BT Headset, etc) is a USB Hub to plug into the rear USB 3.2 port. The USB 3.2 port on the front I use for my keyboard/mouse dongle.The Wi-Fi connectivity is excellent and set as default so that when you turn the PC on for the first time, it connects automatically to your network after you answer a couple setup questions. Win 11 Pro is pre-installed and on intital boot up, it will ask a few set up questions. I switched the Wi-Fi to Ethernet because I'm old school still not fully trusting Wi-Fi reliability. Truthfully, I think those issues have been fully addressed with Wi-Fi 6e which I have...works awesome either way! After installing about 10 apps including office, I can say installations are seamless and all apps work dependably.The machine is faster than my AMD Ryzen 5 ATX machine and it uses 1/4 the power of my old machine. My old machine weighs 25 lbs compared to the Beelink at 3 lbs. I use dual 50" 4k TV's which act as perfect monitors giving me a ton of real-estate and easy reading. Just 10 years ago, people could only dream of such an incredibly powerful PC in such a small super quiet package. I'm thrilled with this purchase.

Pretty good and I bought three of these already. Maybe buy the 4th soon after I can get rid of my laptop.

Everything works great except the Bluetooth is having problems. It worked for a week or so and then it was intermittent with an error code. I use a USB Bluetooth to connect now."This device cannot start. (Code 10) STATUS_DEVICE_POWER_FAILURE"

Genuinely was amazed with how fast this thing was when I bought it right out of the box. Although, I returned it and got something more gamer-friendly with a real GPU. I can't recommend it enough though and would absolutely buy one again for work/editing/producing.

Using this bad boy as an 8TB NAS and Hyper-V host for work. It hold two 20mmx80mm full size m.2 drives. I got Windows 11 Pro installed. The entire package draws a bit over 5 watts idle. Beautifully done! I removed the m.2 wifi card to lower the draw. I read that the wifi sucks but I don't need wifi or bluetooth. The driver pack on the website is a must. This replaced my Xeon server that drew around 55 watts idle. It was also slower, louder and huge. Wanted to upgrade to Windows 11 but it wouldn't let me.

Nice little mini PC. I bought one for my desk to run Fusion on, and another to run my laser engravers with light burn

Overall im still satisfied with the unit. Supplier was timely, unit is sexy, fast, quiet. Connecting two screens (one 4k) to it and working good almost daily...BUT now we're 15 months further and my bluetooth starts to give way: STATUS_DEVICE_POWER_FAILURE.Also, it's running a little hotter than before.UPDATE: WATCH OUT FOR CUSTOMER SUPPORT!!Once you have a problem with your item, that's it: support gives a run-around with all kind of funny things to "attempt" on your end including opening up the unit, removing and cleaning parts. Also got links for stuff to download (incl bios updates) from shady sites my antivirus blocked.Right now, I'm just looking to source parts and have my problem fixed myself. But I will not be recommending these products to my department at work, nor my not so tech-savvy friends.
