We wrote a three-part review of the Mini IT11 Core i7-11390H mini PC last July testing the device with both Windows 11 Pro and Ubuntu 22.04. The build quality is excellent, and it worked well in Windows with the only real downside we found being the fan noise under load. The system also worked fairly well in Linux, and we were especially impressed by the 1 Gbps WiFi 6 speeds, but 8K YouTube video playback was choppy with many dropped frames (no problem with 4K YouTube videos however), and the read and write speeds for an NVMe SSD enclosure connected through the Thunderbolt USB-C port were quite lower than in Windows. Unless those couple of issues are a deal breaker to you, we’d have no problem recommending the Mini IT11 mini PC.
The GEEKOM Mini IT11 Core i7-11390H mini PC comes preloaded with an activated version of Windows 11 Pro, and ships with a package including a VESA mount, a 65W power adapter, an HDMI cable, a storage bag, a user guide, and a Thank You card. If you are interested you can purchase the mini PC for $499 with the coupon code cnxsoftwareit11. The product ships from a US warehouse with free shipping, a 3-year warranty, and free returns within 30 days.
