WiFi broke best on desktops

On the plus side, I liked the size and large number of USB ports. The device did warm up, but not by much, and it was acceptable. The speeds were a little slower than a standard desktop PC, but perfectly acceptable for web browsing and media consumption. I planned to use the device for experimenting with Linux distributions. It would be nice if the manual specified what key to press to boot from USB, but the manual, if you can call it that, only gave connection diagrams for different models and instructions on how to install the device on a monitor. That's the F11 key, by the way. I used the device for 3 days during which the WiFi performance gradually decreased. My local network was visible and able to connect, but all network-related activities were slow and usually resulted in an error. Network activity was no longer possible after 3 days. The device was defective and was returned for this reason. For the price, the device would have been acceptable for my intended use if it hadn't been for the Wi-Fi bug. However, when I returned it, I bought a different brand Mini PC for less than $250. It's much faster and runs cooler. I am writing this review about it. If the device works properly, I would leave it and rate it 3 stars. I believe that you have to spend a little more money to buy a 5-star mini pc.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Something's wrong
