Not really lol. They're supposed to be small and perform very well. The NUC line was never supposed to be affordable or entry-level. It has always been designed for businesses/hospitality & prosumers/enthusiasts. It has substantially more Bios features and management options than your typical or average mini PC.
Good to see a machine where the ports are clearly labelled (except for HDMI) to sow which generation they are. 2 different colours for the Gen 2 10G ports. Now all I have to do is travel to the USA to get some of those dollar thingy's to get one. Is it worth the price? I'm not really sure as there are quit a few of the more powerful min PC's around the grand mark right now. I did like the thought processes that went into the easy access to internals and things like the M.2 no screw fixing solution. I do like the look of Waydroid.
If I can say anything positive on this video (except for the cat, cats are always a positive!) then it's looking at when your run desktop Linux on this device with its 16 (or however many) cores, it seems no more snappy or speedy than me running a very optimised Gentoo Linux on a 3rd or 4th generation Core i5 or i7 SFF PC that cost me no more than £70 (by the time I've thrown in an SSD) used from our favourite auction site. I can't comment on "Fortnite" because I don't play any "games as a service" after 2010 and, as you are well aware, I don't use Windows, which will probably steal whatever cores and RAM you give to it anyway just to suck off all of your personal data and phone it home to Microsoft a bit quicker. Cute cats though (as per their baskets by the window from your video with the "AI" (="probability engine") camera) - are they still kittens? And did the cat only interfere when you were running Windows, because it might be trying to tell you something?
At that price, it's getting into Apple M4 Mac Mini territory. These things are supposed to be cheap.

"cheap" NUC computers are usually 600-1.2k whenever I see them
Suuuper expensive
Thanks for review, how long has this been out for sale? Last gen CPU right now with Lunar Lake coming soon?
@@televerket ETA prime reviewed it 4 months ago
They released it today (15th Gen) I think ?!

The screw is a ground for external peripherals.
A little Mr. Fluffins! :3

Beware of catic electricity!
As son I saw the price completely lost any interest on the video, good luck with that.
