MeLE PCG02 Mini PC Stick Fanless N4000 4GB Ram 128GB Mini Computer Stick Windows 11 Home HDMI 4K 2.4G/5GHz Wi-Fi 5 BT4.2 Gigabit Ethernet Micro PC on Industrial IoT, Digital Signage, WMS, MES, NAS

I don't know if I'd be comfortable leaving this sticking directly out of a horizontal HDMI port (it's a bit on the large size for that without some sort of support), but the PCG02 does make for the most adorable little desktop PC, and at least the N100 variants are powerful enough to handle pretty much anything a casual home user would want to throw at it (i.e. no heavy gaming, but it should be able to handle web browsing without issue).I personally installed Batocera on it for a tiny little gaming machine that can handle up to at least N64 without too much issue (I didn't try anything more demanding than that).Pros:+ A dedicated 12v, 2A USB-C power input that negotiates PD properly, so you can easily power it off of an appropriate power bank or Power Over Ethernet splitter.+ A separate, fully-featured USB-C port that can be used for data, power, or video. The fact that this is a separate port from the power port means you can use a power bank and a pair of AR Glasses at the same time, and this PC is small enough that I would be willing to call this sort of setup pocketable. Alternately, you can use this with a monitor with USB-C video in (that provides passthrough PD power) for a single-cable setup.+ Multiple USB-A inputs so you can have both mouse and keyboard plugged in at once. It feels a little weird to call this out specifically, but after setting up some Raspberry Pi Zeroes, a small computer with multiple full-size USB ports shouldn't be taken for granted.+ Silent.+ Tiny. It's a bit bigger than, say, one of the old Compute Sticks, but it's still smaller than most laptop power bricks by a wide margin.+ Has some mounting holes. These are intended to be used with the included VESA mount, but since they're just standard M3 screw holes you can use them to mount to other things as well.Cons:- A bit pricey, especially at full price. I bought this at $140 with a coupon, but even then you can find similarly-specced mini-PCs for significantly less (though generally larger, louder, and without USB-C power input).- No built-in POE support. This is an exceptionally rare thing for mini-PCs to have, but it's easy to compare this to the Minisforum S100 (since they're both similarly-sized and specced N100 mini-PCs) and POE is the big selling point there.- Not a gaming PC. Probably not going to be a good choice for stuff like video rendering, either.- It gets toasty, since no fan means all the heat dissipates into the case. While I don't think it's likely to actually burn you unless you're abusing the poor thing pretty bad, it gets warm enough to be uncomfortable to touch for more than a couple seconds.- Power brick is 12v only. Don't plug it into anything else or it may fry whatever you connect it to.

Great tiny PC for my sec cam system need.

Item arrived on time and is a nice little PC. Fair warning. It comes with Windows 11 Home, however it's not activated and cannot be activated. You will need to buy a license. With the 4gig of ram installed, the machine for any purpose other then a web applet application or slide show the machine is just about unusable. It took me 6 hours to install just the latest feature release for Windows 11.Don't expect this to be a video conference Teams or Zoom machine. But it makes a good menu board or info center machine.Once up and running it took my PowerPoint well and displayed a few security cameras which is what I bought it for. I will just need to purchase a license for Windows now.

Great for Astro photography. Able to remote in and control the computer, mount and camera from the comfort of the house. Looking forward to using it this summer in the field.

Worked great

I bought this in conjunction with a NAS for streaming content across my home network, this works like a charm! I would buy again should the need ever arise.

This mini pc is of great value, specially for someone who would like to use their tv or monitor and turn it into a computer. First impressions was how easy it was to set up. Just plug and play spend a few minutes with initial set up then add your favorite applications.I tested this with various streaming services such as Netflix, Disney plus and YouTube and they all worked flawlessly. I also tested with my camera security system and I had no glitches. I used both plug in and bluetooth mouse and keyboard and they both worked great. I would suggest to use bluetooth to avoid clutter and have more mobility, it just depends on your set up. This works great if you use it with a projector, you have mobility as well and the option of adding additional storage up to 1TB if you might need it.Although it says that it can multi-task, I would keep it to a minimum, I did notice a little bit of lagging when using three application at the same time. I also like that it comes with both ethernet and wireless connectivity both 4g/5g dual band are compatible.As I said before this little device is very impressive consideringit's s size, I am very satisfied with this product overall.

Easy to install, and works faster than my laptop.
