Pros & Cons
Pros
Positives:- good construction. I like the mounting bracket it came with. I use it for work applications, recording my guitar and some video editing.
Pc is so quiet you don't even know it's running except for the power button. It's only slightly slower than my tower pc - almost unnoticeable. It is also very quiet when i use it for browsing on the net and watching movies.
Pc is compact, easy to set up and it performs well the way i use it. Built in graphics are decent. Can handle illustrator and video editing like a champ. Très fonctionnel pour en faire un mini pc de salon.
Fan curve can be tweaked. Adding an ssd is so easy.
An oldie but allows for some tweaking. Significantly faster. Blazing fast.
Cons
Huion kamvas gt-156hd v2 is stuck at 640x480. It's so slow it's basically nonfunctional," says reviewer. I wish that was an exaggeration, it's not," he adds. The pen/tablet costs $99 for a 2.
It is pointless to ask for a refund or exchange. Wi-fi has issues sometimes, and it will likely be the pc's fault if you experience them.

We are very happy with this little unit got it on a nice sale too

Getting a new tower was going to be expensive
Shipping
Super fast for everyday work which is what i use it for 40 hours a week
Contacted amazon and got me a shipping label
I immediately sent it back to amazon and reordered
Packaging/appearance
If yes to both of these it’s a fantastic package
The first unit i got was an empty box
The pc rattled like a maraca when i received it so i opened it up and found 2 of the motherboard screws not screwed in
Windows came preinstalled which was good so i didnt have to go through the whole installing driver part
Competitiveness
Between a mac mini m2 an intel ultra 7155hs based laptop currently expensive and hard to find and this amd ryzen 7 7840hs based... Read More
As an htpc for some casual gaming even using steam link or amd link its very competent and more than enough for me
A lot of websites claiming intels counterparts were better
I have found online comparisons and saw that the ryzen 7 7840hs performance is necktoneck with the intel ultra 7155hs
