Sold as a business computer, the EliteDesk Mini PC fits neatly underneath or behind a monitor, and comes with everything you need for a general business computer (apart from the monitor), including a keyboard and mouse, but this particular model won't be finding its way into any creative agencies.
The highlight for the EliteDesk is the number of ports available for such a compact PC. On the front is the headphone/headset jack and three SuperSpeed USB ports, two Type-A (one charging one) and a Type-C with a 20Gbps signalling rate. And there's a port party in the rear (stop giggling!) with the power connector, three SS USB-A ports with 10Gbps signalling rate, two DisplayPort 1.4 ports, an RJ-45 ethernet port, an external antenna connector and an HDMI 2.1 port.
This means you can link multiple monitors, keyboard, mouse, an external hard drive (this is especially important on the smaller 256GB SSD spec), a wired internet connection and a webcam and still have space to charge your phone or connect a camera for image upload, for example. This is an area where the EliteDesk Mini definitely has most laptops in its price range pegged, as many need an external dock for any advanced connectivity.
There is a choice of an i5 or i7 processor when speccing out your PC, with the newer G9 model offering either the Intel Core i5-12500 or the i7-12700, along with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD. The model I tested, however, was the older-gen G6 with the i5-10500T processor and 8GB of RAM and 256 GB SSD storage. It also has an older graphics processor, the Intel UHD Graphics 630 instead of the 770 on the newer model.
Another thing you don't get with every mini PC is a keyboard and mouse, but these are included here, with a black standard HP keyboard and mouse included in the package.
