MeLE Quieter 4C Fanless Mini PC N100, 3.4GHz, Mini Computer, LPDDR4X, Win11, HDMI 4K, Wi-Fi 5, BT 5.1, USB 3.2 * 2, USB 2.0 * 1, Type-C * 1, VESA Mount (16GB/512GB)

Review is for the Quiter2Q, J4125 8Gb / 128Gb version.I bought this as a low power "daily driver" PC to avoid running a more powerful PC just to surf web etc.On receipt I gave it a quick check out, then fitted it out with a spare 256Gb Samsung NVMe drive. While trying to install a fresh copy of Windows 11 - I'd rather know it was built with entirely vanilla image from Microsoft media) - I found the device was hanging on reboot, but booting into audit mode and installing the missing drivers from Windows update fixed that problem. Other than that installation was straightforward. The PC activated with Windows 11 pro using the hardware license key.In use this is a really tidy, tiny, highly usable low-power PC. With the NVMe drive I can boot it and log in to desktop in ~25 seconds. It's responsive for everyday tasks, web browsing etc. WiFi connection is fast (802.11ac 5GHz). Built in audio is quite adequate to drive headphones, the in-built amp is actually pretty low noise. At idle the box uses just ~4W of power in total (see chart). The case feels slightly warm but certainly not what you'd call hot.I added the Plex desktop app and tried playing videos on my 2K monitor, it's definitely up to the task and playback is smooth, though there are some stutters if you open menus etc at same time, but totally usable as a media centre PC.Overall I'd definitely recommend!

I’ve been using this product for a while now and I must say, I’m thoroughly impressed. The performance is great, the design is compact and light.However, there are a few issues that I’ve encountered.Firstly, the device can get quite hot. While this hasn’t affected the performance so far, it’s something to be mindful of.Secondly, the customer support has been less than satisfactory. I’ve been waiting for a response to a query for almost a month now, which is quite disappointing.Lastly, I’ve noticed that my device can only use the USB-C to power the PC after it has been powered up once with the charger and then shut down while the USB-C is connected to the monitor (that can power the device). In a sense it won't negotiate power delivery from off, but it will if the USB-C is hooked before the shutdown. If anyone has a solution let me know.Despite these issues, I’m still very happy with my purchase.

I bought this late 2022 and it’s done a solid 12 months, used mainly as a Citrix thin client at least a couple of times a week for 7-8hrs at a time; drives a 4K panel with ease. The second HDMI output for personal non-work faff is highly useful. Light use of web etc is fine, you will get frame drops on 4K YouTube videos even if they are at 25fps. Light photo editing is ok but heavier apps do tax it. iTunes is bearable but far from zippy…. If ripping CDs then turn on error correction and don’t do anything else concurrently :-) But overall I love it, no moving parts and performant in the most part, also tiny - though amazingly there’s still room to get a second M.2 drive in - which is an easy self-upgrade. 5*

This is a great little fanless pc, it is about the size of a small book and supports a 4 core celeron processor, which for it's category is fantastic. The device is soo small that I have placed it next to my router and use it as a small server for hosting a youtube stream 24/7. The machine is up to the task thanks to it's integrated graphics which is poweful enough for this objective.Out of the box the processor runs at a max TDP of 10w which is fine however you can unlock it to 15w and allow it to burst up to the full potential of the processor (max tdp I have seen is 13.9w doing this) I ordered a small usb fan to keep the device cool at all times and a 120m fan will sit snug on the top of it keeping it cool, this is optional and is not 100% required but does keep the device in the 40s degrees for my current load.Device would be perfect for a lightweight computer or perhaps as a thin client to connect to a more powerful machine using software such as parsec, this would be the type of usuage I would have for it if I was not using it as a small server.Got it on sale at £190 which is a fair price, would love to see devices of these caliber go for £100-£150 in the future but perhaps that will not be for another few years.I would recommend this product to anybody who needs a lightweight computer or server.

I have had this particular model (3C, 8GB, 128MB) for 12 months and use it every day for email and on-line shopping. I retro-fitted it with a 512GB M2 SSD drive which was easy to do and was able to clone the eMMC drive. For most general computing purposes this PC is as good as a full desktop PC, but consumes 1 tenth of the power.

Great little mini PC. I'm evaluating itPros:- Silent- Reinstalling a fresh Windows copy is easy, product key is embedded on the BIOS- Installing M.2 SSD is easy, check the product spec for compatible modules.- Quick friendly support from MeleCons:- USB-C power input is not USB compliant and is for power only. Only works with the supplied PSU and not any USB charge capable of supplying 20V.- Runs HOT. I'm adding a heatsink to the case to prevent thermal throttling.

This mini computer is good at multitasking, features 8GB DDR4 SDRAM and 128GB eMMC storage.I use it mostly for basic web browsing, streaming video content from YouTube or Netflix, typing out documents in a word processor, viewing photos, managing files, etc.It can simultaneous display on dual screens through two HDMI ports.Love the small size. For a great price, I am able to process my videos and pictures with ease and comes with Windows 11 pre installed aswell.The speed is impressive even using Wi-Fi.Struggle bit with the installation, my partner did pretty much everything.For what I require this small PC does exactly what I need.Recommended 👍

Windows war vorinstalliert, ich habe Kubuntu parallel installiert (Dual Boot), alles klappt einwandfrei. Dass die Maschine lautlos ist, ist sehr angenehm. Die Mini-Größe ist auch super.

Un ordenador en la palma de tu mano. Funciona tal y como debe, perfecto para controlar mi telescopio de forma remota.

It is a very slow device, make no mistake. However, you can run it from a single cable if your monitor sports type-c power delivery, has many I/O ports, nvme slot, dead silent, and power efficient (15W peak).I bought this as a client device to remote into my work PC and it does that job well. Only need it to be able to run remote desktop, Teams, and Spotify. My gaming PC idles around 200W for the same workload, so I wanted to reduce my wasted energy.Only thing I was concerned about was Teams, but it handles meetings just fine.

The media could not be loaded.  Ho comprato questo mini pc per uso multimediale e per questo scopo si presta bene. L'ho voluto fanless perchè ne ho provato uno con ventola che mi dava fastidio. Agganciato dietro alla tv con la sua staffa, lo comando con una tastiera wireless e funziona bene. Riesco a vedere film anche in streaming a 4k in maniera fluida.Nella confezione oltre al pc c'e il suo alimentatore con adattatore per prese italiane, la staffa per aggancio vesa, le viti per la staffa e un pad termico per SSD M.2. Non c'è un cavo HDMI, sinceramente mi aspettavo di trovarne uno in dotazione. La dotazione di porte è buona, ci sono 2 porte HDMI, 4 USB 3.0, una ethernet gigabit, uno slot per micro sd e il foro per il jack delle cuffie. Smontando il case all'interno c'è lo slot per espandere lo storage con un SSD M.2.Il pc è molto compatto, misura 13x8x2,8 cm. Dà l'idea di essere solido e ben costruito. É totalmente silenzioso non avendo nessuna ventola, la dissipazione del calore passiva è affidata alla parte in metallo superiore del case. Il rovescio della medaglia è che il dissipatore scalda parecchio quando la cpu è sotto stress, appoggiandoci la mano è molto caldo e a volte brucia anche, mentre in idle è tiepido. La dissipazione comunque riesce a mantenere il processore attorno ai 65 gradi sotto stress, con una temperatura ambiente di 20 gradi. Ho provato a mettere sopra il dissipatore una ventola da 120 mm e si scende di 16-17 gradi. In estate andrà sicuramente oltre queste temperature e spero non soffri di thermal throttling, aggiornerò la recensione.Viene fornito con Windows 11 Pro. Non c'è nessun bloatware, al primo avvio viene richiesta la configurazione di prima installazione. Trovarsi Windows liscio è un pregio, rispetto a quei pc che sono infarciti di software spazzatura. Dopo aver fatto i vari aggiornamenti l'avvio da spento ci mette circa 20-25 secondi.Il PC va bene per uso multimediale, office, navigazione. Può essere una buona soluzione per situazioni che non hanno bisogno di prestazioni della CPU, non è adatto al gaming o per fare editing video. Qualche giochino senza pretese ci gira anche ma non si può pretendere di farci girare giochi moderni. Ho a casa anche un PC con un I7 3770k con alle spalle ormai 10 anni di carriera, che comunque ha prestazioni migliori di questo e le noto ad occhio senza scomodare i benchmark. Il wifi funziona bene, non ho mai riscontrato problemi a connettermi alla rete di casa o disconnessioni.Metto una nota anche sull'assistenza. Ho provato a contattarli per una delucidazione su una funzione di Windows e devo dire che hanno risposto in modo celere. La risposta non è però stata particolarmente chiara, credo che gli addetti all'assistenza clienti siano stranieri e si avvalgono del traduttore per rispondere in italiano. A posteriori avendo risolto da me il problema ho capito cosa intendeva dirmi, ci ha più o meno preso ma non si era espresso in modo corretto.Non sto a mettere risultati di benckmark della CPU che si possono reperire facilmente online, siamo comunque su punteggi bassi. I suoi pregi principali sono di essere molto compatto, un prezzo abbordabile (Io l'ho preso in sconto a 200 euro) e delle prestazioni dignitose per attività quotidiane e/o multimediali. L'unico vero difetto è il calore, non tanto della CPU, ma del dissipatore chè è a contatto con l'ambiente.

Ich habe den MeLE Quieter 3Q gekauft um ein Remote-Teleskope (Montierung, DSLR-Camera, Guiding-Camera, Focuser, AntiDewShields usw.) über WiFi von einem entfernten Laptop fernzusteuern.Das macht der Mele-Quiter3 perfekt. Er ist klein genug für die Montage auf dem Teleskop und hat genügend Leistung für alle Programme die gleichzeitig laufen müssen.- Astrofotografie -Bei der Astrofotografie werden in einer Nacht viele Fotos aufgenommen. Das bekommt der Mele Quiter3 schon mit seinem eingebauten 128GB eMMC Speicher gut hin; nach der Aufrüstung mit einer zusätzlichen NVME M.2 SSD nochmals um einiges schneller. Wer Planetenfotografie(Video) betreiben möchte sollte auf jeden Fall eine NVME M.2 SSD einbauen.Der Mini-Pc benötigt 12 Volt und mit einem Verbrauch von nur ca. 3 Watt kann ich ihn sehr gut mit einer NiMH-Batterie versorgen. Hier kommt das lüfterlose Design zum Tragen. Top. Allerdings wird er durch das Lüfterlose Design auch ein wenig heiß. Bei Raumtemperatur im Leerlauf ca 42°C; bei WindowsUpdates bis zu 76°C. Das ist mocvh immer OK. Immerhin ist der Prozessor für max. 105°C ausgelegt. Der PC hat eingebaute Schutzmechanismen und taktet den Prozessor automatisch runter(thermisches Throttling) .- Normaler Gebrauch-Wenn man den Mini-PC zum Surfen im Internet, für Office-Arbeiten, für Zoom/Teams, für Youtube-Video oder für einfache Spiele benutzen möchte ist er ideal. 4K-Videos, auch Youtube über Wifi, laufen ohne zu ruckeln. Mit genügens Speicher kann der Mele Quiter3 sehr gut als Video-Bibliothek dienen.Für Gamer kann ich keine Aussagen treffen; bin mir aber sicher das er keinen High-End SpielePC ersetzt.- Fazit -Geliefert wie bestellt; Leistung wie versprochen; alles was in den Spezifikationen angegeben wurde ist korrekt; der Preis ist ok.-Vorteile -- Geringer Platzbedarf (wichtig für Teleskopmontage)- Geringes Gewicht (wichtig für das Ausbalancieren des Teleskops und befestigung mit Klettband)- Windows 11 Pro - Pro Version ist für RemoteZugriff vorraussetzung- Erweiterbarer Speicher über ein NVMe-Laufwerk; sehr einfach zu installieren - habe Windows komplett auf die SSd kopiert, damit ist Lesen und Schreiben auf Speicher ca. 6 mal schneller.- 12-V-Stromversorgung erforderlich(perfekt für Batterie)- Keine beweglichen Teile, daher absolut leise, und was noch wichtiger ist, es werden keine Vibrationen auf das Teleskop oder die Kameras übertragen- Kann für einen aufgeräumten Schreibtisch an der Rückseite eines Monitors oder an einer Teleskop-Montageplatte montiert werden- Nachteile -- Wird etwas warm, da kein Lüfter vorhanden ist, aber für mich kein großes Problem.
