It’s becoming increasingly difficult to find a mini PC at a reasonable price, and one Intel-based option is the Ninkear M7—a low-power machine with a metal case that offers a pretty interesting configuration for its price. On the plus side, we’ll highlight its expandable RAM and the ability to connect up to three 4K monitors.
A mini PC with an Intel Core i7-1185G7 processor—an impressive quad-core chip manufactured on a 10-nm process—that delivers plenty of power for any everyday task. It also features an Intel Xe GPU that’s more advanced than the classic Intel HD graphics. Inside, it has 16 GB of DDR4 RAM, expandable up to 64 GB, and a 512 GB SSD.
In terms of network connectivity, it features an M.2 adapter with Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2, as well as a Gigabit Ethernet port. The remaining ports include 2 USB 3.0 ports, 2 USB 2.0 ports, a 3.5 mm audio jack, a USB Type-C port with video and data output, and 2 HDMI 2.0 video outputs with support for 4K@60Hz HDR.
This mini PC comes with Windows 11 Pro as its operating system and includes a VESA mount so you can mount it behind your monitor or TV. It’s a machine you can use as a small server or a media center, and it’s priced relatively reasonably given the current market conditions.
