quiet, silent but runs fine!
So far (two months) not bad at all! I was afraid that it will struggle doing basic tasks but it doesn't at all! I needed a quiet (bedroom) mini pc which will act just as a gateway to my remote "big" virtual desktops and my office workstation via a VPN (over rdp). It was doing that great so I started moving some of my regular tasks from remote computers to this one- webbrowser (dozens tabs open including YT and facebook) - not a problem- webex - no problem- outlook with teams - no problemPeople complain about advertised CPU speed vs the real one but you just need to do a little research. These are "small" cpus designed to use less power so you could have a very quiet (if not completely silent) PC in a very small factor. But even they have a very low "Base" cpu speed, they can still overclock themself when needed (for short period of times otherwise they will overheat since they don't have big and noisy fans) - it's called burst speed.So for example the one I have (n4100) has a basic clock speed of 1.1Ghz meaning it doesn't need much energy just to run basic stuff (stays cool) but when you start a cpu intensive task it can jump to 2.4Ghz so it can finish the task sooner but of course at cost - power consumption and heat. If it gets too hot, it will slow down to protect itself. I does that automatically without, you don't need to do anything. Of course seller will advertise the burst speed (up to 2.4Ghz) rather than the basic speed of 1.1Ghz. That's fine in my opinion. Well perhaps they should say "UP TO" 2.4Ghz instead of just "2.4Ghz".Anyway, on top of that you get windows 10 pro included and that's really cool in that price range.So far I love it, hopefully it will last at least 2 years. I hear that these things can break fast. If mine breaks before 1year I will come here, take off some starts and update my review.

Review of the Chuwi mini PC hero box
The computer looks good works well looks great for a mini PC it looks awesome very fast so far I haven't had no issues with it the only observation I have is with the packaging with how the seller packaged the computer the seller could have used bubble wrap or some kind of packaging supplies instead of leaving the computer loose inside a big box that the computer was placed in loosely furthermore I just think that the seller needs to improve his or her packaging methods a little better

Too slow for 4k, HDMI port just died within 2 months
What a waste of time and money. I was really excited about this and chose it after a lot of careful comparisons between other minipcs. It says it plays 4k smooth. That is a baldface lie, as honest as the screenshots of gaming, which you and I both no this isn't suited for gaming. The picture lies about gaming, the description lies about 4k. It will play 4k in KODI, but it is far from smooth *especially* in scenes panning side to side it seems to drop to about 10 FPS. That itself was a real dissapointment, since even the little low power mini ITX machine I built 8 years ago this was supposed to replace performed better. So I haven't been using the HTPC much, cause it sucks. And while it was sitting there not being used, the HDMI port stopped working. I know this is a hardware problem because it's not limited to either windows or linux which are both installed. HDMI doesn't work in windows, or linux, or even at the bios during bootup. VGA still works but that's useless to me as a media PC on a 4k tv. On the plus side, HDMI worked for at least long enough to get past the return window. So what do I do with this frisbee now?

Great price for a Gemini Lake Workhorse Mini PC
This is a very capable mini PC. On the outside you find a very small foot print that is great for those that have limited desk space. From a port point of view there are USB C ports, which is a huge plus for this PC. USB C is the current standard and you always want a PC to have these ports. There is a HDMI port and a VGA port for those that need to support a legacy style monitor. Inside the PC the storage is the only upgradable component. You can replace the existing SSD and also add a 2.5" drive.The 8GB of RAM is adequate for most applications and nothing I tested the PC with had any memory issues.4K video files played back no problem. And basic gaming for older titles was good as well. Obviously new AAA games will need dedicated graphics processors that this PC doesn't have so don't expect this PC to match a $3000 dedicated gaming PC.Web browsing, Excel, and Word all were very responsive and with 4K video I was able to have a very nice large, good looking display experience.WIFI was average with about 200 meg performance. If you need very fast network connectivity you should use the included 1GB ethernet port.For those that need a small formfactor desktop for productivity and basic entertainment at a very low price point this is an absolute winner. 5 stars!

an absolute unit
fantastic for the price, and very conpact. A bit noisy but hardly noticeable. good amount port and its performance is and speed are great for web surfing and light gaming. It can handle Darksouls 1 with all low settings at 30 fps with frame drops here and there but it better at desktop functions like streaming and downloading things or wen surfing. Fantastic value for the price
