Beelink EQi12 Mini PC, Intel Core i5 12450H(8C/12T, Up to 4.4GHz), 24GB LPDDR5 5200MHz 1TB PCle4.0 SSD, Mini Computer Dual HDMI Display 4K, Dual Gigabit LAN, WiFi6/BT5.2/Office Micro PC

i got this on sale in mid february. i took windows off and i am using linux mint 21 on the machines. i am very happy not to have issues with that; some brands i guess are paid by microsoft to make it hard to install linix. thr machine works great. i have used the wifi and works well for downloading games. the processor is snappy and responsive. i also have not had issue with overheating;i use my pc two to three hours a day continuously so i havent tested it for longer times. have had no issues using libreoffice or with any games including windows games on this pc. i am not a heavy gamer i play medium to low end games but i have feeling i could play pretty heavy demanding games on the machine on medium settings at least. i also like it is very quiet, do not notice the fan even when the room has no other sounds(like prople talking, the tv, music,ect).one thing i was disappointed in was the picture had a blue desktop and i got a black. i dislike plain black and white so not getting a color was disppointing. the only other thing i did not like about the pc was the placement of the ports. but those two things are minor considwring how well built and how well the desktop works. so i would definitely recomment this pc if your looking for an every day desktop, and entry level gaming desktop or a desktop for general office work

Bought this computer to replace a Mac laptop to work from home, so take this positive review with a grain of salt. Love that there are four USB ports and two HDMI, which a lot of these small PCs don't have. It also has a USB C port (and other ports that I don't really need to use so I'm not listing them here).I've been using it for about a week now and all appears AMAZING. Lightning fast especially if you have good internet. I'm a 31 year old accountant so I'm not doing heavy data intensive work, but I'm moving very fast between running two screens, multiple webpages, jumping back and forth in file explorer and Adobe Pro, and using Zoom with an external webcam and speakers, all without any hiccups. What's also great is there's no bloatware you don't need that's already pre installed. Five stars just for that.Tempted to dock one star as I've had to restart a couple times, but I think that's actually a problem with my roommate using up most of the internet. Also would dock that star for the very short power cord (about 4ft).Will update if I find that I have to keep restarting but ultimately this has been a life saver and for a great price and tiny foot print (I keep mine on my desk).UPDATE: In the same day that I wrote this, I did wind up having to restart my computer multiple times. File explorer keeps freezing. The computer can't seem to deal with the Spotify web player and doing my work.ANOTHER UPDATE: The freezing just stopped out of nowhere the next few days after the last update, and it's been working like a charm since. Also the customer service is amazing.

I love this small computer that I mounted on the back of one of my monitors. It's powerful, tiny and cheap. What more can you ask for? How about reliable?After a Windows update my computer would go to sleep and never wake up. I had to unplug (turning off the power did not work) computer to get it to boot up. Changing my Windows setting to never turn off the device (computer) did not work. What worked was going into the device manager, Network adapter, right click on Realtek PCIe..., click on Power Management tab and unselect allow the computer to turn off this device to save power. That mostly worked but unfortunately that while the screen can go to sleep the computer never does.Final Update 7/17/2023Keeps freezing. Looking for an alternative. What a waste of $400!Final Final Update 7/30/23:Unplugging an external USB drive seems to have significantly reduced the freezing problem. Now it only freezes once a week.Final Final Final Update 8/26/23Updated all (3) drivers from the Intel Support site. I will see.The end 8/30/23Work with customer service. They had me flash the BIOS and that was the end of the machine.

I bought this little computer to set up my WFH office and was really pleasantly surprised. It took no time to get it up and running, it's very fast, and has plenty of inputs. It handles everything I need and is such a good space saver and such a great value. Would definitely recommend.

My 6-year old computer started acting up so I decided to replace it. My first purchase was from a company called Geekom. I could never get that one to work. Tech support was non-existant and limited to emails from Hong Kong. After a couple weeks, I gave up and ordered the BeeLink.The BeeLink specs were better in some areas, (newer and faster CPU), but this model is a bit behind the times when it came to some of the other features. In particular, the BeeLink only offeres only one USB C port and the locations of the this port and four USB A ports did not match my prefrences.That said, this tiny, computer came up quickly and has performed flawlessly since I put it on line a few weeks ago. I use this device as my primary business computer. It has plenty of power to run just about everything that I have thrown at it, including Photoshop and other high end graphics programs, along with Quickbooks and even some CAD software.For the price, this computer is an unexpected treasure. I just wish the ergonomics were a little better. I highly recommend this computer to just about any kind of user except for those who require the highest tier of power and connections. The power is more than enough for most users. Adding a USB hub that provides all the missing ports. A second USB C port would make this add-on more effective, however.
