After we recently had several mini PCs with a similar housing, this appears to be a slightly newer and improved version with a very similar design. The following test report will tell you what else there is to discover. Pre-installed malware was recently found on systems from this manufacturer, read more here: Packaging and scope of delivery The [...]
We have been testing various mini PCs and barebones for quite some time now, but a model from the manufacturer that practically invented and popularized this segment has been missing until now. We’re making up for that today and can say goodbye in the same breath, because there will be no more “original” Intel NUCs. At least they [...]
We recently reported that malware was found in certain revisions of systems from the manufacturer Acemagic. As we had also tested these mini PCs and they were connected to my network, the matter was of course even more explosive. If you want to read the whole thing again, you can find the original article here: And even though I couldn’t [...]
As we have tested various small systems from the AceMagic brand, among others, and have also included them in our “Mini-PC” category, there is unfortunately no way around today’s rather unpleasant report. Recently, several sites reported that viruses or malware were found on various mini PCs from AceMagic. And not [...]
We already tested this processor a while ago, and today we have another comparable system from a different manufacturer. So let’s take a look to see if not only the availability and price could be improved compared to the EQ12. If you want to catch up on the article, you can do so here: Packaging and scope of delivery This mini PC is also [...]
It’s been a good year since we tested a small system from this manufacturer, but that changes today. So let’s start right away, if you want to refresh your memory of the last Mini-PC from ECS, you can do so here: Packaging and scope of delivery The compact cardboard box is printed in black and does not reveal much information about the [...]
I briefly considered whether the word “mini” could perhaps be included a few more times in the title, but I didn’t want to spoil the search engine optimization even more. Minimally at most. Today we are testing a completely new brand and an interesting system whose unique selling point may yet turn out to be a gimmick. More on [...]
Normally laptops are not my area here at IgorsLab, but the leap from a mini PC is not far. Acemagic probably thought so too, because instead of sending one of the small systems for a test as usual, they sent a notebook. You can find out in the following test report whether the jump ends successfully or is more likely to be a crash. Packaging and [...]
Having recently tested several small systems equipped with top-of-the-range mobile processors, today we are once again looking at the other end of the spectrum. Packaging and scope of delivery The box couldn’t have been much more generic. After all, it is made clear to us umpteen times that there is a mini PC inside. The sticker on the back [...]
Once again, I was faced with the task of buying my lovely wife a replacement keyboard for her iPad. But with the requirement to convert the tablet into a notebook. She wants to write her book on the train and that doesn’t work with the simple models. What’s more, 2 different ones have gone in just under 2 years and none of them were [...]
Don’t be fooled by the exterior, even if this system is confusingly similar to the AM08 in name and appearance, it contains an Intel processor from the Tiger Lake generation. Our last meeting of this CPU series in the form of the CK10 with a 11390H was somewhat disappointing, hopefully things will turn out differently today. But let’s [...]
After we recently tested the i9-13900H, probably the most powerful small computer with an Intel processor currently available from this manufacturer, things are getting a little more normal again today. You can find out in detail how the IT12 performs in the following test report. If you missed the article on the IT13, you can read it here: [...]
And as soon as we had a small system with an i9 in the test, AMD’s counterpart immediately followed. Today, for once, in a shape other than a cuboid. Packaging and scope of delivery At least the box is square. Wrapped in a sash that can be pulled away to the side, with the included configuration marked on the back. Inside, several small foam [...]
Since I’ve been testing these small systems, an incredible amount has happened thanks to increasingly powerful processors from the notebook sector. The road from a passable second system to a fully-fledged desktop replacement without compromises was not as long as expected. So let’s take a look today at whether this mini PC is [...]
Today we have a quick and painless review of a mini-PC that is based on a rather unspectacular CPU, but is still worth a look. We have already published the benchmarks of one processor each, both one class below and above, so there are no big surprises today. Or are there? You can read the respective articles again here: Packaging and scope of [...]
We recently tested an AMD model from this manufacturer, and now we have a small Intel system after that. How the mobile CPU, which is now a good 2 years old, performs, you can read in the following article. Click here for a mini-PC with AMD processor: Packaging and scope of delivery The small cardboard box is very plain, with only the company name [...]
Today’s dish of the day: Last-Gen grapes with lots of seeds and a multi-layered PCB sandwich to go with it. Would you like some rebranded dessert to go with it? Find out in the following test report whether you’ll spoil your stomach with it or if you can still satisfy your hunger for performance. Oh, by the way, we already had a system [...]
So that it doesn’t get too monotonous for us here in the niche of small computers with the manufacturer Beelink, we’ll take a look at something from the brand NiPoGi today. You won’t find a website for them apart from Amazon, but it can’t hurt to take a look, can it? Packaging and scope of delivery The mini-PC comes in a [...]
Recently, we have repeatedly seen how much performance can be packed into the smallest space with the new Ryzen CPUs. Today, it goes in the opposite direction, because Intel presents a power-saving alternative for office use with the new N-series processors. With a TDP of only 6 watts, it is almost on Raspberry Pi level. You can find out if the [...]
I’ll keep it short today since we already had the SER6 without “Pro” in the test and this is only a slightly modified version with the newer version of the CPU. So, the main focus is on the performance benchmarks. All the rest can be found in the previous article: Specifications Let’s quickly compare the two installed CPUs [...]
