Pros and cons

According to our barebone expert

This NUC already pre-installed Windows and has working memory and a fast ssd.
Thanks to the Intel Core i5 processor you have sufficient computing power for medium to heavy tasks.
Mount the barebone on the back of a monitor thanks to the included VESA bracket.
The barebone only has room for an M.2 SSD. You can only expand the storage capacity by replacing the SSD, or via an external drive.

Description

The Intel NUC NUC8i5BEKPA is a mini computer for use at home or in the office. Thanks to Windows 10 Home 64 bit, the pre-installed memory (8GB) and the NVMe SSD of 256GB you can get started right away. Thanks to the small size, you place this small PC at every workstation. If you have limited space, you can even mount it behind a monitor. This way you leave sufficient workspace on your desk. Thanks to the Intel Core i5 processor, you can perform simple tasks such as editing pivot tables. With the Intel Iris Plus graphics you also play videos in Full HD and 4K. Do you need more memory?

Review is 10 out of 10.

Better than expected!

Incredibly fast for such a small thunder
nice and small
to be mounted on the back of your screen
no

I was very doubtful about the Mac Mini and this Intel NUC. I mainly use it for music production

Anyway, ordered for a very nice price with Windows 10 64bit installed on it and a built-in SSD of 256GB and RAM of 8GB.

It boots up super fast, about 10 seconds.
programs load extremely fast, especially my music production software and plugins. without effort
if he is having a hard time he is blowing a bit but that is not very noticeable or disturbing to me. I expected it to be much worse.

Just buy.

Review is 10 out of 10.

Over the Moon

small and quiet, low energy consumption
fast components, high speed wifi and 1Gbps ethernet
many connection options
active instead of passive cooling

Specifications: 8th Gen Intel i5-8259U Win10 Home (upgraded to Win10 Pro with an old Win8 Pro product key I had lying around) 8GB Kingston DDR-2400 SO-DIMM dual-channel memory (expandable up to 32GB) 256GB Intel NVMe SSD Iris Plus graphics 655 HDMI 2.0a (for 4K UHD) 1 x USB 3.1 type-C (also for display) 4 x USB 3.1 Gen 2 (up to 10Gb/s), one of which is for smartphone charging, etc. MicroSD card slot 1Gb Ethernet port Intel AC9560 Wi-Fi card - 802.11ac 2x2 (max 1730 Mbps) + Bluetooth 5 incl. VESA kit to install on the back of a monitor

Q: What's as small as a peanut butter sandwich - fits in a lunch box (really!) - but is more powerful than all the computers on Earth during the moon landing combined? A: This NUC8i5BEKPA2.

Built my own PCs for years, now switched to a 'pre-built' miniPC because it met almost all my requirements, and the difference in price between buying and building it yourself (plus Win10 software license) was too little (only €30 or so). In addition, Intel gives a 3-year warranty on everything, and as a complete package I was also able to buy it with the very good service from CoolBlue.

I say that it met "almost" all my requirements... actually I wanted a miniPC without active cooling (read: fan), but with everything this miniPC has, this configuration is not yet available without a fan. The fan in this NUC is very quiet, and in BIOS you can set it to run as little as possible.

CPU and WiFi card are 'soldered' - cannot be replaced/upgraded - but memory and SSD can be replaced. This model is slightly flatter because it has room for only one SSD (the higher models have room for an extra HD/SSD).

I had an old Win8 Pro product key laying around and entered it (settings / 'change Product Key') to upgrade from Windows 10 Home to Pro for free. This gives me more control over, among other things, BitLocker.

Recent BIOS updates available, so it is also well maintained.

Very satisfied.
