What a surprise!
I never imagined that this excellent piece of equipment was going to be so much robust! And for less than 130 US$!!!I bought it to install a small Accounting Software for my office, and I was afraid it couldn't because of the small 64 GB disk space it had, but let me tell you: I also installed the full Office 365, an Antivirus, Spotify, Dropbox (with around 6 GB in files locally I already had), Ring App and the AnyDesk software to run everything from my home if needed. And I still have 26 GB left!!This beast has lots of USB ports, so I connected a Logitech wireless keyboard, a wireless mouse and an extra 512 GB flash drive for extra space. I hooked it up to a MI Smart TV with the HDMI cable and hidthe computer behind it in the wall (it includes a mounting plate) and it works like a charm!Warning: It comes in a box that if you don't hold it properly the computer can fall out - mine did, and the whole mini PC got a big hit on the floor!!!, but nothing happened!! it's still working pretty fine. So be careful while handling the box.For me it's a must have computer. 100% recommended!

Good for basic use, do not expect super fast performance
This mini pc looks pretty decent and I really like the compact factor of this computer. It literally about the size of a roku or android box. You should not expect this to be a super fast computer, but it does do a decent job. You could mount this device it does not come with any extra tools. It has a nice finishing top which is nice to avoid getting those unnecessary finger prints on it. It also make it easy to grip while also reducing the amount of scratches you can get. The next thing about this is that there are a few grills on the computer to make it easy to vent the device and keep it cool. Be aware that it still is a compact computer so do not expect it to be cool to the touch. That being said the device itself is fairly quiet and stays warm (not hot) for most of the things I use it for. I pushed the devices capability and it can get relatively warm when you are pushing the CPU and ram. You can feel the warmth from the device. There are four USB 3.0 and no USB 2.0. There are two on the front, one on the side, and one in the back. This makes it very easy to work with. I plugged in several different devices and they detected and powered it no problem. This includes 2.5 hard drives. It only requires one port to power the hard drive. The only down side is that one plug is on the side. The plug on the side makes it a bit awkward to plug into. The transfer rate is about the same as any other 3.0 if not faster. There are two ports in the front and one in the back making it easy to access devices without needing to look behind. When I have all my devices plugged in the whole computer looks a little weird as there are cables coming out of every side except the front. Again this made it a bit hard to cable management but not impossible. The USB 3.0 transfer fairly quickly depending on what device you have plugged into it. The ports are spaced out but if you do have a thicker thumb drive, it may not allow you to use the other ports. This pc uses the power brick to power on. The power brick can take up more than one plug on the outlet being a big size so be aware of that. The power button is on the front and with the flash memory it boots up pretty quick. There is also an AUX port in the front for headphones. The device only has 64 GB memory which is perfect for just running the operating system and a few application. This is by no means meant to be a mini gaming PC and it most likely cannot handle the game either way however you can emulate some retro games on it. I was able to get emulators for ps2 working on this device and it wasn't exactly smooth but playable. It definitely makes it heated up. Being a small computer with only an atom processor, it does not have much processor power. The speed is not bad. Just on stand by alone it was already reading at 60% cpu usage. You do get a noticeable lag when opening up the browser and trying to load a page; however, once you have it loaded it is relatively smooth. It does have a hard time with multitasking but honestly this computer is really only meant to do stream or do the basics. You are able to dual screen with this device but be aware it will significantly increase the lag and strain on the computer. It does have one HDMI ports and one display port so you can dual screen with this mini PC be aware though that it will have a bit of a hard time trying to multitask on two screens. It also has a built in wifi that can connect to 2.4 or 5 Ghz. Overall, this PC does what it is suppose to do. It may not be the most powerful PC on the market but it is an excellent PC to have for your television or children. It can watch videos, transfer files, and anything else you may want to put onto your TV. It has the dual monitor capability but the processor definitely is on the lower end. I definitely would recommend this to replace your roku or other media streaming device. It really does give you more control and accessibility to sites and such. Essentially this is relatively the same as the other lower end model. The only real difference is the processor speed on this one is a little faster and higher up model. I did not see much performance difference where I would justify the price difference to be honest but this device does work well

Handy mini pc/server
This is a really handy mini pc to have around. I especially love how small and quiet it is, yet packing enough performance to handle substantial internet browsing, video playback, and similar. It isn't going to be a hard-core gaming device, but works great for tasks similar to what you would use a Chromebook for. I found the included Windows 10 to be a bit sluggish, but was able to install my favorite Linux distribution (Arch Linux) fairly easily and still have plenty of storage space to spare. I do wish there was a way to upgrade the eMMC and/or RAM from their respective 64GB and 4GB sizes, but still found those sufficient for most tasks. This mini pc works especially good for light server tasks, and I found that it idles at only about 3 Watts!

Good power but a little loud.
Good little mini PC. Lots of ports, graphics pretty good. Fairly fast. I bought it to use as a Linux box and it runs Mint really well. Great for the price. It gets only 4 stars due to the fact that it has a fan and the fan is fairly loud. It’s louder than a normal laptop but not like it would keep you awake at night. I was expecting no fan like many other mini computers.Even with the fan, I recommend.

Beautifully disappointing
This thing goes off for no reason after a few minutes of use. I thought a leaner OS might make a difference but that didn't help. it is a beautiful little machine but if it doesn't work long enough to get anything done it is practically useless.

Not very good
Seemed ok at first,and the unit was nice and compact.However,after investing an hour or so in the set-up of windows,the machine abruptly died and couldn’t be resuscitated.

DO NOT BUY - read first!
My previous review was deleted, on the grounds that Beelink disputed it. So it is clear that this company has positive feedback on their products because they dispute and delete negative reviews.My review was deleted on the grounds that I claimed that I did not receive an authentic product. This is far from the truth! THE PRODUCT I RECEIVED IS EXACTLY THE PRODUCT ADVERTISED. However, the product I received does not work as advertised and it more of a paperweight than a mini-PC.The story in short: after updating to Windows 1909, the mini-PC freezes at almost every boot and needs to be manually reset. This happens in about 9 of 10 restarts, and only when you are really lucky, can you use it.And even when you can use it, this will NOT stream 4k video not even from YouTube. 1080p is fine.Again, dear Amazon, this is an honest review, about a product that is just badly made and has severe compatibility issues, that are not disclosed by the seller. I am NOT disputing the authenticity of the product, I am just giving honest feedback on its quality.DO NOT BUY THIS MINI-PC!

Works very well as a living room PC, great value for money.
Most jobs I used to do on a PC are faster and more convenient on my phone or tablet, but I occasionally need one to create a spreadsheet or word document. My old Windows PC is getting tired and slow and I didn’t want to shell out £500 or for a new laptop, so after some research I came across mini PC’s.Mini PC’s perform the functions of PC’s but without frills or faster processing speed needed for more complex software. You then add the peripherals, e.g. screen, keyboard, mouse and plug them into the ports provided. As I already had these, it made sense to go for a mini PC. After my initial research, I expected to have to pay around £200. This mini PC appears to be Beeline’s latest version and was, at the time of writing, £70 cheaper.A major selling point for me is that it is tiny, the box measures just over 4 inches by 4 inches and under an inch thick, so fits unobtrusively next to my TV. It comes with a bracket that I’ve shown in the photos. The bracket screws into the back of the PC and the manual suggests it can then be attached to the back of a smart TV.Anther selling point for me was the ability to stream movies. I do not have a high definition TV so only need the ability to stream 3k movies and cannot comment on the 4K resolution. You can see the time lag as the PC loads up the software to play, but once it starts, it plays smoothly.The set-up was straightforward, I had the usual teething problems with passwords etc. but because it comes with Windows 10 pre-installed, Cortana talked me through the process. Initially the PC was slow to load, but once I had set it up it booted up quickly.As I have connected it up to my TV in the living room I changed the display icons to large size so that the shortcuts to various media mimic those of my smart DVD player. I also installed Google chrome so that I could use Google Sheets and Docs when needed. I have deliberately kept software to a minimum and plug the internet lead into it so that it continues to run as fast as possible.The PC is completely silent when operating, it does warm up slightly with use. All the media that I tried works fine and the resolution is good. So far, this looks as if it is going to be a very good investment.Since writing this I have had a chance to look at the Mini-PC's performance more. It comes with a relatively slow chip, not through the company's choice but due to supply problems from Intel. It is probably the slimmest Mini-PC on the market. It is completely silent in operation due to having only a tiny fan and plenty of ventilation on the sides. When I first used it it overheated after there and half hours of playing internet radio. I had left it on my Wi-Fi router which is warm. I subsequently attached it to the back of my TV with a bracket that appears to be a standard size for doing this job. I now cannot see my PC, just reach over the top of the TV to switch it on. This gives me better ventilation and it plays HD movies well. It is still not my first choice for movies but serves very well as a backup.I'm still very happy with my purchase, it loads up in seconds and frees up a lot of my other equipment. Still 5 stars.

Great little device
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. This is a great mini pc perfect for what I needed it for. I use it as a secondary computer with an old monitor i had lying around and it does the job well. It's not the most powerful device but it does everything I need it to do, mainly browsing and streaming, without any issue and considering the cost of the device there isn't really any room to complain. The pc is very small so perfect if you need to move it frequently or just don't want something as obtrusive as a traditional pc. It runs quite hot but I haven't noticed it slowing down at all so probably not an issue.The only thing I would have liked is a bit more storage space to store things. Other than that though I have no complaints. The device comes with a power cable and two hdmi cables, one long one and one much shorter one. It also comes with a mounting bracket and screws if you want to fix it to a wall or something.All in all if your after an affordable mini pc and don't need much storage space then I definitely recommend this one.

Great Mini PC !
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. Recently I was looking for a small mini PC to hide behind my TV.I did a google and saw some reviews on Youtube which led me to this Beelink T4 on Amazon.Item came next day and out of the box I was up and running in ten minutes.My need for the device was for emails. some Wordpress work (web design) and multimedia via VLC and PLEX & Netflix.The CPU on my model is an Intel Atom Z8500, which for it's intended purpose is great. No lag and performance for now is brilliant. Everything I've chucked at the Beelink has worked perfectly for me.Installing all my software such as office went smoothly. Plex is a web-based version so that also went well. The 64gb storage for me is fine as I also have USB drives.The downside is that it's not as fast as my Macbook pro, but that cost me over £1400, this Beeling cost me under £150.For the money, I really can't fault this little gem. I did want it bolted to the back of the TV with the supplied mini bracket, but as I like to fiddle, so that did not work for me. I've simply got it in front of the TV. It's so small I hardly notice.There is a fan fitted to the device for cooling, but I cannot even hear it. I've had models such as the Minix Z64 that was passive (and died after 14 months).Conclusion:If you want a small but powerful mini PC for everyday tasks then you really can't go wrong.5 stars!

I like it, but I hate Windows, I'm going to try and put ChromeOS on it.
It's very compact, and fits easily on my desk to provide me with my daily use PC. It genuinely is silent and runs very cool. It does everything I need it to, no more and no less.Due to its small size it doesn't have enough USB ports, but that's easily solved by using a multi-port USB hub. The HDMI port connects easily and was recognised first time by my tv. The built-in WiFi works well and is simple to configure for a tekky like me.It's not very fast, and Windows takes ages to do updates, which Windows frequently needs. I use AVG anti-virus on it which works fine. I intensely hate Windows and will put ChromeOS on it as soon as I can, but that's a fault of all Microsoft products, not this lovely little PC.Overall? It's great, and good value for money. I have no complaints running it every day as my main use PC.
