A great mini PC for home, school, or work

My colleagues and I have reviewed a number of Beelink mini PCs over the years and have found these devices to be excellent. They're typically far from being powerhouses, but they offer great performance at a budget price range.

Overall, these mini PCs tend to be ideal for everyday home, work, or school usage. Plus, if you take advantage of services like NVIDIA GeForce NOW or Xbox Cloud Gaming, you can easily enjoy a broad array of video game titles on this simple machine.

The EQI12 highlighted in this deal has a modest-yet-reliable Intel 12th Gen Core i5-12450H CPU (central processing unit) and 24GB LPDDR5 RAM to decrease power consumption. Meanwhile, the 500GB M.2 2280 PCIe SSD offers plenty of storage space for homework, office projects, personal files, and more.

It also offers a good range of ports with one USB-C port, four USB-A ports, two HDMI ports, two LAN ports, and a headphone jack at your disposal.

Honestly, if you just need a simple computer, the Beelink EQI12 is an excellent choice to go with. Especially, right now, while it is $80 off for Memorial Day.
