MeLE Fanless Mini PC Stick PCG02, N100 8GB 128GB Compute Stick, Micro Desktop Computer with Full Functional USB-C, 2.4/5G Wi-Fi, 4K Display on Business, Office, Industrial, IoT, Home

This is the best value for a computer I have seen, very simple, does everything I expect it too, I bought this as a home theater PC, and it works perfectly! Movies are in true 4K, It output true surround sound from the HDMI straight to the tv. I could see this being used for a cheap pc for a small company or other industrial uses as its sealed, and has no fan. This is a lot faster then I was expecting it to be, and handles just about everthing I can throw at it, with that said, I must note that it does do what's called thermal throttling, which reduces the speed of the processor to cool it off since it doesn't have a processor fan, and the slow downs can be quite annoying at times, but I solved this with... wait for it... A FAN! I got one of those mini personal desk fans, and when the unit gets hot, or if I know I'm going to be doing something that can make it hot, I just go turn on the fan and the stick pc speeds right back up. It's a minor flaw, but not worth complaining about, or enough to alter my review from 5 stars since I already knew what was going to happen before I purchased it as I'm a bit of a pc expert. Go MeLe, I will be buying more computers like this one when it is time for new terminal computers for my business.

I have owned other stick computers. At one time, I had 3 pc stick computers. I had one intel-stick, and 2 of another off brand. I loved playing with them until less than a year the intel one got bricked due to a Microsoft update. I was missing my PC stick computer to play with. Let me tell you that this one is great. It has enough memory RAM to do the job for watching TV, browsing the internet, and using office. It might not be able to play the most advanced games, but I am sure it could handle a bunch. I say match it with a wireless media keyboard, and it is awesome! Imagine if you are lets say a tech or sales or whatever, and you go on a trip. Most hotels have a 720 to 4K TV in the room with an HDMI cable. You just power on this computer with the wireless keyboard and plug it into the HDMI of the HOTEL T.V. and you got a good working computer that was only a few inches long. Heck, it fits perfect in a briefcase or purse. So much better than dragging around a laptop with an undersized screen. Now imagine at home you have this T.V. with HDMI inputs. Well, plug this in, and now you got an extra computer with a nice screen. Truthfully, I use this stick at the moment with a 720 resolution TV that is just less than 32 inches. It is perfect for my needs.

Works ok for what I wanted but it is slow. The 8 RAM is too restrictive. I would have bought the 16 GB RAM version but the combo RAM and SSD I wanted were not available. I got what I paid for and don't really regret the purchase though if I had to do it again MORE RAMThis is a fun and effective device for basics such as documents, and email but heavy lifting such as a working my way through and read 2700 page PDF file was VERY challenging.Basic office tasks, videos, web browsing, email, streaming all great ...It was as advertised and does what it says it will.

Great! small! moderatly vesatile! but has thermal issues.While running windows 11 pro 22H2 on the device I was met with some pretty hefty heat from the device. It shut off twice because of this.I decided this was more a microsoft problem of poor OS optimization and decided to (effortlessly) install PopOS! (Linux).With a much more efficient OS is still did run into heat just not as quickly. (Didn't shut off tho)I opened the device and realized how much this plastic is an insulator rather than say an aluminum chassis. With this, I installed an SSD heatsync with copper pipe and fan as seen in my picture. (Yes this absolutely voids any warranty). I did have to Dremmel a square on the side of the CPU and upgrade the thermal pad.The device is still silent and so much cooler.My advice to the manufacturer, vaporchamber with vents and preferably aluminum chassis or at least fins. I am pretty sure the thermal pads would have much more of an impact with such a design.I would have paid $50 for some or all these enhancements.Thermals aside... the bios is very open so becareful with your settings.This is an excellent replacement and upgrade to Intel's computstick lineup but not as 'daunting' as a raspberry pi, and near the same price these days -end of 2022.Works as advertised. Really great for travel, the back of a projector, remote streaming device, or an emergency device backup.

Perfect product, does exactly what is described, have not had a problem since I purchased it. I have a client that uses these for everything.Very happy, Thank you.

using in a manufacturing environment as the source for digital signage. I just needed something reasonable priced and that could display an image. Works well

While the product does function well and is as portable as advertised, I was shocked to learn it’s incompatible with WPA-3 WiFi password protocols, as it does come packaged with Windows 11 and meets all performance requirements for that.It also does get extremely hot a few minutes into any use.UPDATED REVIEW:After having to reset the PC and do a fresh installation of Windows, the PC no longer recognizes its own hardware security functions. I had core isolation and BitLocker enabled on it previously, and now Windows says that the hardware is “incompatible?” I’m not sure how this is even possible, unless the extreme heat that this device naturally incurs was enough to destroy its own hard drive. I wish I was still within the return window, but please save your own time at the very least and avoid this junk.

This is my side car PC it ran too hot out the box. I replaced the paste with duronaut and placed some memory heatsinks I had extra on the outside. This brought heat down a lot. I now have it at 15w boost and 12w hold. It's brilliant. I appreciate the dual channel 4267mhz ram.
