We have reviewed the GEEKOM Mini Air12 mini PC with both Windows 11 Pro and Ubuntu 22.04, and the small computer works great with either operating system with up to 8K YouTube video playback, and an ultra-fast SSD (compared to other Alder Lake-N systems), and excellent gigabit Ethernet and WiFi 6 performance. The only downside we really had was some compatibility issues when using the front USB-C port with some external SSDs as some would work and others not.
Due to the quality components used such as DDR5 memory, fast NVMe SSD, and WiFi 6 module, its MSRP price is a bit higher than the cheaper models on the market, but the good news is that it’s now possible to purchase the GEEKOM Mini Air12 mini PC for just $219 when using the coupon code cnxair12off, valid until June 20, 2024.

Just a small typo: “Power Supply – 19V/2.36W (45W) “, instead of “2.36W* I think you meant “2.36A”.
Wow, not bad at all the CPU with a TDP of 6W for 24/24 operation
Coupon code did not work on June 19, a day before the sale was to end.
They told me:
But no indication of when the issue would be fixed. I understand the coupon should still work today, but I can also confirm it’s not working for me anymore.
