Great little computer. Can get my older label printer working again and it's easy on the eyes with using a large screen. Loads of ports to attach devices. Makes shopping online easier. Powerful little machine for the cheap price.

I am blown away by this tiny PC. My use case is quite unique- this will become the beating heart of my 24/7 aquarium livestream. I received the PC, a keyboard, a mouse, a USB Wi-Fi adaptor, and the power cable. I did not receive any display cables or adapters, and the included wifi adapter topped out at 5-10mbps. All in, this machine has cost me $95 and it's still such a good deal that I rate it 5*. I have no complaints about the PC itself, just be warned you may need to buy certain accessories. This would work wonderfully as a home theater.Update: unfortunately it has come to my attention that this won't work for me as previously thought. I was unaware Windows 10 was being shut down and unfortunately my main coding program doesn't work properly on Linux. As a result, I will leave the 5 star rating as it has plenty of use if you switch OS.

It beeps. A light blinks on and back off then the power light goes on for less than a second. Then a few seconds later it repeats. No video. This is not refurbished. Do not buy. I will contact support at the E-mail address provided.Update: I put different memory into the computer and it works. So, I got a computer with no RAM, effectively. Perhaps the seller should give me a partial refund of 15$... I now need to buy RAM for this little computer.STG is the seller.

The price on these units are acceptable, at $99 at my time of purchase. I have several other ones with slightly different configurations that are used whenever I need a lightweight computing solution and a small footprint. Part of the reason for the lower price point of these models, most likely, is due to the fact that the hardware does not certify for Window 11. Considering that I will be rebuilding these with Ubuntu as my home automation servers, that is not a concern.From the listing, I expected the actual PC and a power adapter. To my surprise, not only was the power adapter included, but also a wired mouse and keyboard, a USB WiFi adapter, and a Displayport to HDMI adapter. And while I probably will not use any of the pack-ins, as I will be running these as headless units on a wired network, the thoughtfulness of providing an out of the box solution to meet most users needs is still appreciated.Listing states that the physical condition of these units are nearly indistinguishable from new at a distance of a few feet. I would tend to agree. Condition is that they are completely intact and free of any major wear or blemishes. If I look hard enough, I can see traces that they are used, but I would have expect that, anyhow.

Netflix is dropping support for my Bell TV receiver by the end of this month and I had to come up with a solution fast. Upgrading my receiver would cost 600 to 1000$, there's just no way I'm spending that much. Sure, I could've bought an Android box or Cast Stick whatever however a PC has its advantages when it comes to software / hardware support and general use, so I bought this tiny little Lenovo and it's perfect. Seriously look how small that thing is, yet it barely gets warm and you can't even hear it running. Out of the box they give you everything you need to get started save for a monitor. I installed Debian 11 KDE; everything works as it should and it boots up super fast thanks to the Samsung PRO ssd. The PC outputs crystal clear sound and video from its DisplayPort converted to HDMI and when paired with an air mouse remote control the whole streaming experience becomes as streamlined and painless as can be. I heard they make great emulation boxes too! For the price paid I'm very satisfied with this machine's performance, looks and unobtrusive form factor. 5/5

This is my initial impression of this mini computer. I bought the unit as an Amazon Renewed Product. After a quick, very simple complete assembly of the system, I find myself very impressed with it. Phenomenal performance right out of the box. I was pleasantly surprised that Amazon included so many things with the unit. Specifically, a keyboard, mouse, two different types of Display Adapters for Monitor connection, a version 5 blue tooth adapter and a USB WiFi Adapter, 2.4. Very nice. Unfortunately, they did not list, document, all these things, as being included on the Amazon listing. Consequently, I had ordered all of these necessary items in separate order from Amazon. This does create irritation, since Amazon now will not allow cancellation of ordered items. Their reason, they are supposedly in process of shipping. Most of the things are not scheduled for delivery for days and have not yet been shipped. Therefore, I must say I am aggravated consequent of this situation. They did an inefficient listing and now I must deal with the situation as it relates to all the unnecessary items ordered. Regardless of my irritation, the mini appears to be exactly what most average users need. I only paid $90 for a truly impressive unit, along with all the many additional needed hardware as part of the package. I do recommend this unit. But, not for gaming, so be cognizant of this fact. The Ram can be upgraded to a max of 16 Gb, the processor is a core i5, not bad for daily, normal use, but it too can be easily upgraded. The SSD, is 240 Gb, but can be upgraded to well over a Tb, so good potential there too.

I was looking to replace my old desktop PC that was running Windows 7. Too old and not a good candidate for Win10. I don't need a standard desktop case that takes up so much space so I looked at compact PCs. I had originally bought an off-brand from Amazon that had a plastic case, low-end processor, and 4G or RAM. It had Win10 installed but I was not expecting to get very good performance from it. It's draw was the price. Sadly it lacked terribly even for basic web-browsing. I returned and looked at this Lenovo refurbished. With an i5 chip, 8G of RAM, and 250G of SSD space it seemed quite capable. From my pictures you can see that it was well packed, and in great shape.I did have an issue with the built in wifi card but an email to the vendor had them send me out a new USB wifi adaptor that day. I have been using for a month now and have had zero issues with this mini PC. I think for less than 300 dollars it is a sound investment and will last me for the next many years.If you are considering this PC, I can fully recommend both it and the support team behind it. Both are excellent.
