MeLE Fanless Mini PC Stick PCG02 N5105 8GB/256GB, WiFi5 USB PD3.0, Micro Computer Stick Dual HDMI 4K Gigabit Ethernet BT5.1, Small PC on Business Office Industrial IOT Media Home

Hasn't overheated and has been working great. Exterior is well built and durable. Doesn't come with an HDMI cable if that's important to you.

good

Very happy so far with this device.The finish on the product is fantastic, and the fanless design is smart.The case dissipates the heat so it gets hot to the touch which is intentional so important it's put somewhere with decent airflow.This is a Celeron N5105 so don't expect miracles but you will get a modern architecture which runs Windows 11, pro in my case, very smoothly.We're using it as a Windows 11 Kiosk for web access, zoom/teams calling etc attached to a meeting room display with a POE splitter (and a USB C adaptor) which pulls the 12v 2a power from our network switch so there's minimal cables.The hardware is vanilla intel so should be good for support and drivers, it came with no bloatware but did do a fresh Windows 11 install from USB on ours and have enrolled it into our Intune MDM via Autopilot. No issues, ask me in 6 months ;)

Runs happily on PoE+ (12V 2A splitter) even when running geekbenchRuns happily on some USB-C power supplies (like the Belkin 45W dual port but unlike the 1st gen anker atom PD1 for some reason)It seems to be roughly similar performance to my (much larger physically) dual core 7th gen i3 Nuc. It does however get inconsistant geekbench results which I suspect is due to thermal throttling.It’s nice that its silent BUT the design compromise are I believe a performance hit and certainly a weight hit. I would probably consider swapping if they had a fan assisted variant that was much lighter (wouldn’t need a heavy heatsink).I have had the real stick PCs in the past (with their small noisy fan) and while they were slow, what really made them a fail for me was lack of ports, no ethernet port and lack of storage (think they only had 32GB or 64GB on board which became a real issue). This one really sits a bit between the stick PCs and the Nuc in more ways than one.Comes with windows 11 pro, which I am finding to be a real drawback, at least now. . . . Win 10 had so fewer issues.I wish this had a full USBC port with alt-mode DisplayPort and data + HDMI rather than twin HDMI.These things are always a compromise and I think this one hits a nice level between functionality and portability.

Works amazing
