Beelink Gemini N N4100 Mini PC

My Acer Aspire desktop has been plagued with minor problems since day one. I cost me over $500 two years ago. I have been looking at these mini computers for about 6 months now but couldn't see how they could be much good. I didn't want to spend another $500 or so again, so decided to go with this Beelink Mini.

Wow ... this is miles faster than the Acer was, and it screws to the back of my monitor, together with the external 240Gb SSD which is plugged into one of the four USB3.0 ports.

It is only warm to the touch after hours of use, even tho' it has no fan. It also was the easiest computer I have ever set up, basically just plug and play.

I purchased an external SSD because I couldn't be sure that it had an internal M2 port, and thought maybe the internal SSD was soldered to the board, but it isn't and the 128GB could be replace with a 400Gb or so, freeing up one of the external USB3.0 ports.

I am in awe of this little box, I do not know how long it will last, but it should be at least as reliable as most laptops (which it basically is, minus keyboard and screen).

Highly recommended at the price, but do go for the 6Gb/128Gb as 4 Gbs of ram may slow it down a bit.

The full and true description of the item. Good price. I recommend everyone. I am completely satisfied with this product. Installed automatic windows updates. Downloaded and installed browser opera. Everything works, but lags sometimes and a fast jump in the level of CPU using up to 100%. For now, I do not understand what it is connected with. Perhaps because it automatically starts and runs many applications that I, as an ordinary user do not need. During works, the body heats up, but not critical, but it burns your hand if you hold and hold for about 15-20 seconds. Video in 4k and full hd plays without problems.

Arrivato in confezione integra e sigillata in busta imbottita. Si è rivelato un ottimo prodotto per l'utilizzo come computer secondario; sorprendente l'utilizzo per la navigazione in internet, posta elettronica, streaming (es. Netflix o Youtube), redazione documenti d'ufficio, etc. Ho collegato i cavi necessari e una volta acceso è partita l'installazione di Windows 10 che è stata completata in circa 10 minuti.
Se deve essere collegato ad monitor analogico (VGA), è necessario acquistare a parte un adattatore da HDMI a VGA. Nella confezione sono comunque inclusi anche 2 cavi HDMI, uno corto e una di media lunghezza.
Fanless, ho notato un leggero surriscaldamento dovuto alla dissipazione tramite il corpo metallico. Comunque mai esagerato. Rapporto prezzo/qualità eccellente. Acquisto consigliato.

I received the N41 mini PC, 20 days (including holidays) after the payment. The packaging is excellent. The product is also of superb quality. Initial setup is very easy and did not take a lot of time. windows update is also smooth and it only cost me a little more than 5GB of my internet quota. After the update it boots to windows in less than 12 seconds, making this is the fastest PC I ever used.

I tried Linux Mint 19 and Prime OS. They are also quick to boot and smooth.

I recommend this to any one who is expecting a powerful pc yet consuming less power.

Thank you Gearbest...

Ein bisschen skeptisch war ich ja schon, denn ansonsten nutze ich eher die dicken Dinger an PC's ... Aber ich kann absolut nicht meckern, alles läuft perfekt und rund.

Ich nutze den kleinen mit Debian + ioBroker zur Steuerung der kompletten Hausautomation. Die lief vorher auf einem Raspberry und hat diesen mittlerweile vollkommen überfordert. Mit dem BeeLink N41 N4100 Mini PC mit 6GB RAM und 128 GB SSD sind diese Probleme aus der Welt und alles läuft rund.

Windows war vorinstalliert, aktiviert und Updatefähig ... Habe das natürlich probiert bevor ich Debian installiert habe ;)

Absolute Kaufempfehlung!
