We already have the new Mele Quieter3Q miniPc available, the direct heir to the Mele Quieter2 that improves with respect to processor and Wi-Fi.
The improvements in the Mele Quieter3Q are inside, since externally the differences are minimal compared to the other miniPCs in this series. On the one hand, the processor jumps to an Intel Celeron N5105 that is manufactured in 10nm, something that gives us good performance with very low consumption. The improvements also reach the RAM that doubles up to 8 GB and wireless connectivity, since we find Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2.
The fanless design is maintained, so we have 0 noise during its operation and the operating system is Windows 11 Pro, installed and activated by default.
MeLe Quieter3Q Specs
The tiny MeLe Quieter3Q has at its heart an Intel Celeron N5105 processor manufactured in 10nm. This Chip is a Quad Core capable of reaching 2.9 GHz in burst mode and in which we find an Intel UHD Graphics GPU with support for h.265 and VP9 video playback up to 4K60fps resolutions.
The RAM memory is 8 GB LPDDR4 while for storage we have 128/256 GB of eMMc memory on board, an M.2 NVMe 2280 port to install an SSD and a micro SD card reader.
Other features
The connectors that we have are quite a few considering its size and are the same as in the previous model. We find 4 USB 3.0 ports, two HDMI 2.0a, 3.5 mm combo audio jack, Gigabit Ethernet connector and a USB Type-C for power. We also have Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity.
The power supply is external, and we also have a Kensington lock.

“The fanless design is maintained, so we have 0 noise during its operation”….
“Attached to the processor, we have a fan that extracts air from the side of the box to keep temperatures at bay.”
So what is it – fanless or not?
