I was on the hunt for a compact yet powerful mini PC that could handle daily tasks with ease, and the GMKtec Mini PC with Intel N150 and Windows 11 Pro exceeded my expectations. Several employees had been complaining about how slow their computers were and due to the low cost, I thought that I would give this computer a try.Compact Yet CapableThis thing is tiny, yet it packs a punch. Whether I'm browsing, streaming, or handling office work, it runs smoothly and efficiently without lag. The Intel N150 processor does a great job for everyday computing, and having Windows 11 Pro pre-installed is a huge plus—no extra setup hassles nor extra costs associated with buying extra software.Perfect for Work & PlayI primarily use this as a secondary PC for work, and it’s whisper-quiet while running multiple tabs and applications. It’s also great for media streaming—I hooked it up to my TV, and it plays 4K videos flawlessly. The fact that it supports dual monitors makes multitasking effortless.Energy Efficient & Space-SavingUnlike bulky desktops, this mini powerhouse barely takes up any space on my desk, and it consumes far less energy. Perfect for a clutter-free setup or even a portable workstation when traveling.Great Connectivity & ExpandabilityDespite its size, the GMKtec Mini PC comes loaded with multiple USB ports, HDMI, and WiFi connectivity, making it easy to connect accessories and external storage. Plus, there’s room for storage expansion, which is a nice touch for future upgrades.Final Verdict: If you need a compact, efficient, and reliable mini PC for home, office, or media streaming, the GMKtec Mini PC with Intel N150 and Windows 11 Pro is a fantastic choice. It’s affordable, powerful for its size, and incredibly versatile. Highly recommend!

Worked correctly with installed Windows 11. After a couple of days I erased windows and installed linux mint. Mint works well as long as you use the latest kernel as older kernels do not have the intel drivers required.

I use this mini PC for my home theater use. I have the TVGuardian+ app (search TVG+, not the old set-top box) which does a very good job of taking out all the unnecessary foul language for Netflix, Prime, and several other similar apps (with more coming). The app works through Chrome, hence, the need for a mini computer rather than having a laptop running for TV watching. When using this mini-PC for only this use it starts super fast not being junked up with lots of apps. My wireless USB Logitech trackball plugs into the mini-PC & can just sit on my armrest to do everything after starting up the mini-PC with a Logitech keyboard on my coffee table that only needs to be on for 15 seconds to login. The min-PC easily plugs into my audio amp for 5.1 sound through HDMI, then the audio amp to the TV also through HDMI.I elected to get this model with not only the tiny, faster M.2 form factor, but an NVMe technology rather than the rapidly depreciating SATA in case for some reason TVG+ didn't work out I could use it on my old W-10 desktop that is not upgradeable to W-11 . Well, after 9 months we really love TVG+ and the ability to watch many more shows now that the needlessly tedious foul language is muted and the closed captioning is replaced with nicer words. I think it has found its home on the TV component shelf for good. Highly recommended.

Basically, I tried to do everything I could to test this unit and see if it stumbled in any way. I have not been able to make it stumble so I am very pleased with this purchase. I love the small size and because of it I may just keep components in several places and just transport the small box as my portable computer. It has plenty of power for the type of work I do, which is normal homeowner type of uses. It has all the ports I could use or anticipate needing. It has a DP Port (Display Port) which is used to string multiple monitors together. I haven’t considered this in the past, but may in the future and it will be nice to have the option with this machine. Some of the USB ports I’m using could be freed up by using Bluetooth components.I would recommend this computer for people looking for an alternative to laptops or towers and the price is right considering what you get. It also appears to me that upgrading to larger RAM and Storage may not be necessary as the cloud appears to be taking over. I upgraded my other mini to larger RAM and a 1 terabit drive. But after using this unit I’m not sure it is necessary. All in all I can’t say anything negative about the unit. I’m very pleased!Keep reading for additional detailed description.This is my second minicomputer from GMKtec. I purchased one about 1 year ago. It worked well but the SSD crashed. The company worked with me, and I was able to replace the SSD, and rebuild the software and it has been working ever since. So, they have been responsive and stand behind their products.I had a need for a second computer so spotted this and decided to give it a chance. The unit came nicely packaged and intact. All the items listed were in the package as advertised. The difference with the minicomputer is that all the peripherals are not included. I have many of the peripherals so it is not an issue for me but be aware that if you don’t you need a monitor (I’m using a small TV I had), a keyboard (I bought a $13 USB one) and a mouse (I already had one).After acquiring the components, you literally just plug the components in and turn it on. The first thing you notice is how fast the screen comes up. Remember when you would turn your computer on then go get some coffee and hope it was up and running? Not so here it is a fast boot up.It went through some introductory screens and askes you some questions. The only one that gave me hesitation was the password one. It turns out this is to log into the computer every time you turn it on. So, make that a simple one to remember. I didn’t but went in to change it later.It comes loaded with Microsoft Windows 11After that I started downloading software and Apps, all the ones that I use. I had no difficulty or problems with any of them. I connected it wirelessly through my home router with no difficulty. It comes with the latest wifi-6. I’m connected with 2.4 GHz channel and get 55 Mbps download and 33.42 Mbps upload. I know this depends on your systems but shows that there is plenty of speed.The minicomputer unit is 1.5 inches high and 3 3/8 inches square (see picture). Plenty of USB ports and if necessary, you can put a USB expander in one port. I used the headphones jack to listen to some music and connected my Bluetooth ear buds also both worked with a hitch and there is no lag or distortion. The package also comes with an angle support so you can hang it on the back of the monitor. This cleans up the area and make the monitor appear to be an all in one.I loaded Microsoft 365, a mechanical drawing program, iTunes and quicken and used them thinking that they may put the unit to a test for speed and any potential problems. There were none and it performed flawlessly.I have some “sleep” issues with the other unit, but this unit goes to sleep and wakes up with no issues even if left for a long period and with the monitor disconnected.Another improvement I noticed was that they have changed the way they screw the cover on. On my previous unit you had to remove the rubber feet to access the screws, and this will eventually cause problems with them coming off. This newer unit has the screws accessible trough the feet. This is much better for those looking to do any upgrading.
