HIGOLEPC Mini PC Celeron N5095 Mini Computer with Fan,8GB DDR4,256GB ROM,Full-Featured Type-C Mini PC with Screen,Micro PC 4K 60Hz Triple Display Without Battery WiFi 5.0 BT5.2

After trying another company that makes "fanless" mini pc's and both of them having issues like shipping with a dead bios battery, both BTW. They both, in due time went to crap because of file corruption ' I think because of overheating. Support was horrible. I ALWAYS had a ryobi 4v clip fan on them hey were cheap and well made little boards but despite always having a fan they had both had issues within a month.Onto the Gole2 pro. Made similar to an apple product quality and with the run of the mill PC tasks' as fast as my My Mac Mini 2020. Now with that said I don't think it could touch my Mac.Mini when it was encoding video.Because if you put a little pressure on this thing And it' winces a little with pain lol. If you adjust a couple settings in Bios with 16mb of RAM for mundane tasks it's more than plenty. I haven't had it long but so far impressed and I like it so much I said screw it I'm going in there to see if I can find something upgradeable. The board is literally marked by the same company selling it and also possibly individual serial number on board. It's about twice as much as the Mele's but because of the fan which Is brushless BTW. I think it's going to hold up atleast into the months category. Some say novelty nope it's perfect for me because I just run HDMI to a big screen TV and take a keyboard and mouse with. The touch screen does work and you can scale it a little but it's still so small. The picture though is tremendous for this price. Get one now because I have this and the Galaxy s24 ultra and there more than enough unless I was editing video. Not sure how this little guy would handle video and encoding because of the celeron. Even today seventy five percent of your users couldn't push this computer to what it's capable of. This price is just tremendous. I'm loading Adobe after-effects right now.Tonight I will update my review on how it acts with that.Downsides Support as usual.I sent them an email about something I.Still haven't got a reply.That was like a week ago. The only other downside that I could find Is the little slits for the air holes?Not having a little bit of mesh on it.Maybe because It will gunk up eventually but easy to clean. Heat os death to these little guys.I love this thing . if you wanted to run a little bit quicker , turn off the touch screen in the windows settings and just run it to the h d m I does seem to be quicker when you turn off that other monitor. I'm still not sure About the u s b c data port and them saying that it's triple function. I'm not even gonna plug a jump pack into it.Cause I don't want to f*** it up.I like it too much. Battery life projected estimate seems accurate ' couple hours But like I said I think a bigger one could be fit in there and maybe even five thousand milliamp. Just ordered platinum SK Hynix Nand 1TB SSD and will update in regards to running a lean version of win 11 or 8.1 embedded. The battery is attached to the rear plate so if you open it up go slow.Update 10/14/2024Support with this seller is Excellent! They did get back to me right through email and they have been extremely responsive and supportive to questions. In regards to Adobe After effects, I think the PC would have enough cajones to run it but according to support and me attempting to install , it will not run it but there 7in version will. This is a great seller who will support you through problems and if not resolved they stand by the product and will do what they need to make you happy. Just give them time to respond to the emails. PC is not a novelty , it runs quick and fast although smaller battery will deplete quicker on performance settings it is WELL made. Hooking it up to HDMI out often does not phase it and it cools properly and doesn't get hot. I still think this little thing is a bargain and for my work on the move often its perfect.

So initially I was excited as the unboxing and initial boot up process was flawless. The touch screen performed acceptably well and it did perfectly fine with a USB keyboard and mouse the HDMI function to flawlessly and detected a 1 TB microSD card as well as the expansion USB hard drive with media performed perfectly well for several days behind a TV functioning exactly as I intended it to as a media player or server to play offline video content. Where this device begins to fail spectacularly is as soon as window updates begin. Within 24 hours the first three Windows updates completed and it had to redownload drivers for the CPU and GPU and while that not cause any problems it did add some stress. By the third day however the Windows updates started to fail forcing the device into a boot loop and the only way to stop this from continuing was to force close it multiple times in a row until the windows updated itself recognize that it could not proceed and It reversed the changes. The very next day the Windows update started again not allowing you to prevent it from downloading and this time it got stuck in a black screen boot loop between the BIOS and the windows launch screen and was never able to leave that. There is no method of going into the BIOS at that point even using a USB keyboard and there is no recovery option using hardware keys or a reset on the device.I would only recommend this device if someone intends to completely bypass Windows immediately on unboxing and install a Linux OS or has an Enterprise version of Windows that they can install over the windows 11 that would allow them to control updates.The actual hardware seemed perfectly fine and the only issue I experienced that was subpar regarding hardware was the wireless chipset continuously reconnected or lost signal but running it with an Ethernet worked fine.I returned mine and may revisit it down the road just to run it as a Linux box if I don't find a better alternative elsewhere.

I like this little computer. I had all you need to work on the go (if all you need is docs, Internet and some light stuff like that). Has good ports, good integration with enough ports for peripherals. Good memory, good built in mini screen, and storage. Overall it is handy and imwould but again. But, I installed a required upgrade and it loaded into bios and would not exit. So imhad to return it. Will keep an eye out for a good deal on one and definitely get it again.

Good thing I had a usb keyboard to set the computer up. The keyboard on the computer was so small I couldn’t hit the right keys. Now it’s set up, I connected a Bluetooth keyboard. Computer gets warm but not bad. I like it. Good value. Good for travel too

Don’t get the previous version. It gets hot. This one is much better. Works great. Company reached out when I got the other and I complained about it and was gonna give me a slight discount on the new one since I kept the old one and bought the new one but that never happened. Now I notice the power cord is getting hot when it is plugged in charging. That’ll probably quit soon.
