![]() ![]() We tested the HP Z2 Mini G9, a Windows mini PC built for creative work and any jobs that might require a bit more horsepower than the HP Pro Mini 400 G9 offers. Power consumption: Mini PCs use low-power desktop and laptop processors, so yours shouldn’t draw much power even when it’s working hard.VESA support on a mini PC is nice to have but not something everyone needs. VESA mounting support: Mounting a mini PC to the back of a monitor is a good way to save a little space on your desk and get some of the benefits of an all-in-one without having to pay for one (or dealing with its lack of upgradability).The accessories that PC manufacturers bundle with their desktops are rarely very good-if you care about your keyboard and mouse, you’re likely to spend extra on a nice Bluetooth keyboard or mechanical keyboard and a good wireless mouse anyway. This doesn’t affect our judgment one way or the other. ![]() Bundled keyboard and mouse: Some of the mini PCs we’ve looked at come packaged with keyboards and mice, while others don’t.A mini PC free of manufacturer cruft is more desirable. Lack of bloatware: Nobody wants useless, poorly designed, complicated software-bloatware-preinstalled on their PC, and it’s annoying for people who can’t figure out how to remove it. ![]() The policy should cover any defects as well as tech support over the phone, chat, or email.
