Review is 7,6 out of 10.

Great Mini PC but VERY UNWANTED Office 365 installs

Nice and compact, yet powerful for normal use
Pre-installed Office and Norton software very time-consuming to remove if not wanted

I purchased and set up Cubi for a good friend. The Norton offer was unwanted and quickly removed. The Office 365 pre-installation was available in almost 20 languages and had to be removed before the desired Office 2024 package could be installed. This takes hours because it has to be removed package by package. It's a shame, and very undesirable, if you have to buy a new PC because Microsoft no longer supports Windows 10.

Small but fine all-rounder

Super small and ultra quiet
Fast
Many connection options

For me it was Install and go. It all worked immediately. I use it in combination with an ultra wide monitor without any problems. Fast and silent computer and also expandable. Hangs behind the monitor. I'm very satisfied so far and haven't really found any downsides yet.

Mid-range small but fast for a regular user

Small size
Additional on/off button included to attach to the monitor.
VESA
VESA mounting could have a little more distance between the monitor and PC

I purchased this product for a client who was looking for a small, mid-range device that also takes up little space. She's very satisfied with it for everyday tasks.

Suitable for basic browsing, working with Word, and small spreadsheets. The Wi-Fi connection is also up-to-date.

The VESA mount is included, but when used with a Philips monitor, it proved to be a bit too short. By adding some jumper rings, I was able to attach it to the back of the monitor.
