Should You Buy A $200 Mini PC? - ACEMAGIC AK1Plus
Ғылым және технология
⚠️ATTENTION!⚠️: It has now been confirmed by several sources that certain ACEMAGIC Mini PCs are infected with malware that is factory-installed on the pre-installed Windows operating system.
I STRONGLY advise you to delete your Windows installation and reinstall it using an official Microsoft ISO file: www.microsoft.com/software-do...
You should also change your passwords IMMEDIATELY.
🤔QUESTION: Why didn't I catch that?
⚠️Answer: Because I always carry out a fresh installation of Windows on all devices after the first impressions (5 - 10 minutes without any logins). This applies to Mini PCs, laptops and Desktop PCs. This is an old habit of mine and, as you can now see, a good one.
♦️QUESTION: How will I deal with such devices in the future?
⚠️Answer: Actually point out the events that occured clearly in the video, even if future devices would no longer be affected by them.
In addition, before I carry out a fresh Windows installation anyway, I will start a virus scan and show you the result in the video.
Please spread the word to prevent as much harm as possible! 🙏

Why are these cheap Mini PCs becoming so popular? Are they even worth it? Today I'm going to put this specific $200 Mini PC to the test, will be putting it through its paces in office- as well as gaming-related tasks along with power consumption and temperature tests. To top things off, I'll also be reading out noise levels.
How will it perform? What does it do especially well and where are its obvious limitations?
This is the ACEMAGIC AK1Plus. At least that's the brand the AK1Plus is known under over here in Europe, or more specifically in Germany.
Should you buy yourselves such a Mini PC or should you steer clear of it?

I just got it from Amazon. I don't know what to do, if I do a new installation I lose the license key
"Loyal Office Donkey" ... best description I've ever heard of a system.
I'd check it for Malware. Especially, if it comes with a Chrome browser set to a different default search engine than Google!
This is a well put together video! You deserve more subs!

Thank you very much!
I use one to access my gaming PC with Moonlight, which is in another room. It works well, but I recommend connecting it via LAN as this is where the least frame drops occur due to network jitter.
I bought one on a whim before I looked at reviews. I am very happy with it. As long as you aren't throwing it around or banging on it, durability isn't a question, why would durability be a question for a desktop use device? I have it at my work on a non-corporate WiFi connection and am using a 32" monitor. I use it primarily for viewing news articles and KZread videos and after using it for some time now, I have no complaints as it exceeds all my expectations.
He says there is no USB C port but there is one at the bottom which connects to the optional extra SSD drive.
Have you ever encountered such a modern Mini PCs? 🤔 What were your thoughts, and could you imagine grabbing something like this for your use cases? 😅😁
I use mine for astrophotography but using dc Anderson pole connection, it died. Lucky Beelink provided a replacement within a few weeks. No problems over a year now.

Thanks for your feedback! :)
Just purchased one recently running Win10 for 115 dollars including shipping. Incredibly fast machine for something so small and compact. Bootup time was lightning fast. Minor peeves is the lack of an indicator for the SSD and no way to shut off the sometimes annoying LED rainbow.
What kind of intel uhd graphics?
I dig the look of it

So far that's my first Mini PC. No idea how durable they really are in the long-term. I will find out. :D
I want one, but have no use for it, so I have to think of something. Is it water resistant so I can use it to surf in the shower?

Unfortunately, no. You definitely shouldn't bring this thing anywhere near water... xD
This one is already has been, the N100 is better in every aspect and can be found for 150€.
But can it run COD? Probably not.
Can it run fortnite?
