Bought the E3 w/ N150. Clean upon start up and seemed bloatware free, but reimaged anyway. No problems, license obtained automatically from MS. Overall speed very good for basic home use, browsing, documents, spreadsheets, etc. Certainly exceeded most older higher end CPU's, mainly due to higher clock rate, newer memory and SSD. This is really all anyone needs for a basic home PC. Plenty of ports, well positioned, no cable conflicts. Support site is adequate, has all drivers there, all with batch file installs, organized well. However, models change often, so be sure to download all drivers after purchase, as they may not be there one day, and are not likely to ever be updated. Without driver updates, expect 2-3 years of support only. Documentation quite poor, but adequate if you are an experienced user. No conflicts with monitor, keyboard, mouse, USB devices, network, hence base drivers work fine. A great price point for upgrading a basic home PC.

This is my fourth mini PC. As older laptops and/or desktops need replacing I have turned to these mini PC's. Typically, these are in applications where they are tied to a TV via HDMI. Add a wireless mouse and keyboard and you are good to go at a pretty significant savings. This one, for example, is connected to a powered USB hub with seven drives with about 30 TB of video and audio files. Its HDMI output is to an HDMI distribution amp which sends the signal to a monitor and four TV's or AV receivers. That's a lot of stuff to hang on a tiny little box, but it all works perfectly. The solid-state drive and generous RAM means that it boots very quickly and runs cool. Streaming 4K video is flawless. I calculate that when compared with buying four conventional laptops or desktops I have saved from $1200 to $2000. That's worth five stars in my book!

I bought the Bosgame Mini PC E3 16GB/512GB for $159.99 with a $30.00 coupon, for a net $129.99. The little PC is powered by an Intel N150 low power process. The performance is reasonable, and capable of decent office and home use cases. I set mine up running Ubuntu Linux and run a dedicated Minecraft server on it. I was disappointed that the NVMe drive is only on a PCIe 3.0x1 port. This leaves a lot of performance on the table, even at PCIe 3.0 speeds, but for my use case, it's not a huge loss. It would have been nice to see x2 at a minimum, but preferably x4 speeds here. Networking is 2.5Gb ethernet, which is a nice plus. transfers are plenty speedy. The pc has dual HDMI for those needing multi-monitor support and lots of USB, including 2 USB 10Gbps, 2 USB 5GBps and 1 USB-C that supports 4K/60 video. One item I would have like to see on this little PC is a built-in power supply. More mini PCs are starting to include them, and it would be nice to not have so many wall warts. (Amazon sells cool 8 inch extension cords to help fit them all into your power strips!)

This mini computer (N150, 16G, 512G SSD with Win 11 preloaded) is to replace another mini I bought 4 years ago that windows 11 update killed it off. This mini comp had a coupon for $50 off and that made the deal worth buying. Having the other accessories like KB mouse and portable monitor pretty much made this virtually plug and play. One of the main reasons to buy this particular model (besides the good price and good specs) was that it could power up and display to a monitor through just one cable USB-C connection. I am not sure if this is thunderbolt 3 or 4 connection, but it works. I can run most the apps I need and also play Startrek Online MMO. I like to use a mini computer instead of a laptop when I travel, it is easy to setup to play online board games (boardgamearena) with my spouse while the other is playing on the desktop. There only a couple of small complaints I have but not enough to ding a star. 1- The power input is a 12V DC round plug, I wish it was a USB-C power input. 2- The USB-C display port is on the front and I would rather have it on the back next to the other HDMI ports.

This is a good little Mini PC if you can get it at a decent price. It has lots of connections and even though it's basic it's still a fairly fast little PC for what it is. I have a decade old i5-4690K and this Celeron CPU is roughly equivalent to that. Keep in mind that this is single core performance where most of the action takes place anyway. Unless you use a lot of programs that utilise multi-threading, then single core speed will be what you want to focus on. Also keep in mind that that particular i5 chip is still being sold today and in its day it was a beast for gaming at the price point it was going for. This Mini PC keeps very cool and gives off no particularly worrying heat when taxed. For people who are just using it for internet or office tasks then it's fair to say it gives off hardly any heat at all. The CPU is very energy efficient so it won't run up your energy bill either. It looks better in real life than the photos of it on the net where it looks a little cheap. It's actually a very bare bones basic design, but it works and is uncomplicated. Not a lot more to say. Hopefully this unit will last a couple of years at least, and even if it does pack up by that point, you've probably had your money's worth as long as you didn't spend the full whack asking price. I got mine in a sale, and the price of it made it more competitive to other similarly specced computers. It's a nice touch that you get a HDMI cable with it to connect your monitor. There's even a VESA mounting plate if you choose to go that route as well. You will probably want to add a second drive if you need more storage, but with plenty of USB 3.2 gen ports that shouldn't be problem. They should provide enough speed for most people and what they will probably be using this computer for. It's also great to have a copy of Windows 11 Pro thrown in to the bargain. I guess a lot of the people buying something like this will need the extra functionality that it will provide 'under the hood', and so it makes it a more attractive proposition to have it thrown in to the deal from the start. I know it was one of the things that attracted me to it anyway. I mess about with Linux sometimes, but with this box I just want something that works out of the gate and Windows 11 Pro does not disappoint. I am using it for music production and in a few hours of setup time I have installed Ableton Live and FL Studio, along with Reason and Cubase. No problems so far. Wireless speed is very good, though I have not tested out the Blueooth capabilities yet. It's the slightly older Bluetooth protocol but it should be perfectly fine for most people who just want to run a Bluetooth mouse, say. Others have mentioned some tips for when you first fire the computer up, and I'll just repeat these here for clarity as the instructions in the manual it comes with are a bit vague. Basically, you need to switch your wireless hub off because it will auto detect it and you will be forced in to using a Microsoft account or some other such thing which makes the whole process a lot more involved not to mention time-consuming. Most people will just want to get this up and running as quickly as they can. You still have to set a few things up of course, but switching the wireless hub OFF to begin with saves a lot of unnecessary steps - obviously skip whatever steps you are able to when setting up the OS for the first time. It still involves a bit of time and work, but you should be good to go in under half an hour if you decide to go down this road. If you want to set it up with any existing accounts you might have then by all means take that route if it suits you. When you get the Operating System set up, then you can turn your wireless router back on and just put in your password for your particular network when it is recognized. As I said, the wireless on this is pretty fast, so there's no worries there either. All in all this is a versatile little box and if you can get it for around the £150 mark then you are getting a bargain. It's not that it's not worth a bit more money than that, but as with all these things, the longevity of the device is never really known, and if it does konk out sooner rather than later, you won't feel so bad about it if you got the thing for a bargain price. Then you just buy another one. There are more expensive models on the market, but I don't see the point in paying more for a slightly faster CPU that runs hotter and uses more power. Some of these things have Laptop CPU's in them, that's the kind of thing I'm talking about. The 16GB of RAM is probably more than adequate for most people and will run this OS with ease and room to spare. The 512GB system drive is also probably more than adequate for most people, but costs start to rise a lot when you go over that amount in the Mini PC world. If you do find a unit with that option it's probably at least double the price of this little box. I have encountered a few instances of the computer suddenly going in to standby mode and the monitor cutting out, which isn't a very encouraging sign after only a few hours of use, but hopefully these are just teething problems that will get ironed out when I finish setting it up. I'm about six hours in right now to setting up all that software I mentioned earlier, and to be fair, that is quite taxing, taking in to consideration that Windows 11 likes to update itself when you first get it going what with all the little updates it needs to do here and there and in a certain order. I'm not too worried at this point. That would be my final piece of advice if you aren't used to setting up and building computers: don't forget to do a few restarts here and there as Windows 11 downloads all the stuff it needs and installs it in the order in needs to be installed in. These things take a bit of time and patience, but it usually settles after a few system reboots here and there. So far I'm quite impressed for what I got for my money (around the £150 mark).

When I bought it, I knew what I was getting. It was meant for remote access and web browsing. And it performs perfectly. I did notice the Windows 11 pro image that it came with was glitchy. I wasn't able to successfully process the 22H2 update -- it just hung at 100% update. So, I reimaged it with the Windows 11 pro cloud download and after that it worked great (you get to it by resetting Windows 11). All in all, it exceeds my expectations.

Amazing mini PC! Performance is great (given price and size) and the build quality is solid. The best thing is that it comes with a full USB-C port (data, video and power delivery), so you just plug your monitor that has PD and USB hub and no need for other cables. Very easy to upgrade SSD, comes with proper Windows 11 and also works well with FreeBSD.

I was in need of a compact computer for my home office setup, and this BOSGAME Mini PC is exactly what I was looking for. Despite its small size, it's incredibly fast and handles all my daily tasks with ease, from web browsing and streaming to working with office applications. The processor is surprisingly capable, and it makes for a very responsive and quiet user experience. The best part is how little space it takes up on my desk. It’s so small you barely notice it's there. Setup was a breeze, and it’s been running flawlessly ever since. If you need a reliable and powerful computer without the bulk of a traditional desktop, this is a fantastic choice. This device has no battery so needs constant power course and its nice and compatable with windows 10 and 11 so will work with any program that can work on windows. There is no issues with the connectivity as there is built in wifi and bluetooth.

I have been buying these smaller PC's Always a Mac guy but nice to have variety at home. First was a Kamrui N5105 which performed well. Next was a Bosgame Ryzen 7 (wow setting 8 gets 20fps) Bought this Bosgame Core i5 1135g7 and it runs amazing and is the fastest mini PC yet. (wow setting max 10 gets 55-60fps internal graphics) I bought it for the thunderbolt and will add egpu later.
