Mini in size, mini in price — 7 mini PC deals I'd shop from $199 at Amazon and Best Buy

This mini PC from Acemagic is dirt cheap, but you still get 16GB RAM and 512GB storage. The Intel N150 processor means it won't win any performance contests, but it should handle everyday computing tasks just fine. While we haven't tested this model ourselves, reviewers on Amazon assure that it's a solid buy for the price.

While it has since lost its spot to a newer model, the Kamrui E3B was a previous pick on our list of the best mini PCs. You get plenty of power for the price with this deal, with an AMD Ryzen 7 5825U processor, 32GB of DDR4 RAM and a 1TB SSD. There are two USB-A ports, a USB-C port with video out and a headphone jack. Around back, you get HDMI and DisplayPort for video out, a Gigabit Ethernet jack and, surprisingly, four more USB-A ports. In our Kamrui E3B review, we praised its near-silent fan and its sleek, all-black design.

The Geekom A5 (2025 Edition) is our pick for the best budget mini PC. It’s powered by an AMD Ryzen 7 5825U processor and comes with 16GB of DDR4 RAM and a 512GB M.2 SSD. While you don’t get a USB-C port on the front (just two USB-A ports and a headphone jack), around back you get two USB-C ports with video out, two HDMI ports, two USB-A ports and a 2.5 Gbps Ethernet port. There’s also an SD card reader on the side. In our Geekom A5 2025 Edition review, we said this affordable mini PC performs even better than it looks with its unique rose gold colorway.

The base model Mac mini M4 is a big step up from its predecessor and likely enough for most people without any expensive upgrades. It comes with Apple’s powerful M4 chip, 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. You also get plenty of ports in a tiny package with three Thunderbolt 4 ports, two USB-C ports, HDMI and Ethernet. If it weren't for the awkward power button placement and the complete lack of USB-A ports, we would have easily given this one 5 stars in our Mac mini M4 review.

This option from AceMagic is a powerful mini PC with an AMD Ryzen 7 8745HS CPU at the heart. This is partnered with 32GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD, and it can also support 8K triple display connectivity.

With its Intel Core i9 13900HK CPU and 32GB of RAM, AceMagic has aimed this mini PC at gamers on a budget. It also boasts a 1TB SSD, USB4/HDMI/DP/Wifi 6E connectivity, and Windows 11 Pro. While it won't beat the performance of a gaming PC specced with a high-end GPU like the RTX 5090, AceMagic says it can handle popular multiplayer games like Fortnite, League of Legends and Valorant on medium settings.

The GMKtec EVO-T1 is powerful enough in its own right, but on the front, in addition to your usual front ports, it has an Oculink port. This can be used to connect this mini PC to an external graphics card dock to transform it into a full-fledged gaming PC. Even if you don’t go that route, the EVO-T1 features a powerful Intel Core Ultra 9 285H processor with built-in Intel Arc 140T integrated graphics. You also get 64GB of RAM, a 1TB SSD and a case that lets you use this mini PC vertically if you don’t want to have it lying flat on your desk. Dual 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet ports also make it a great choice for those with a NAS, and with 50 TOPs, it’s also great for local AI workloads.
