What did you get and how much was it, and more importantly, are you happy with it?

I tried to buy one from Lazada. All the reasonably high-spec ones were shipped from China.

 

Ordered one anyway. Three weeks later it hadn't even shipped. This was from the manufacturer's own Lazada store!

 

Excuses!

 

Cancelled!

 

Ordered one of these from JiB https://www.jib.co.th/web/product/readProduct/70060/2/ got it the same afternoon.

 

QED

 

 

Got one windows 11, no cooling fan gets very hot

Bought a Beelink mini PC 16GB RAM/512G SSD with Win11 Pro, about 5,000THB Intel CPU. Works great, had it 2 years now used everyday without issues. Took about 8 days to ship from China.

Yeah I grabbed a Bmax B9 Power Mini from Lazada to run my 3D printers (the laptop was dieing).

 

i9-12900 CPU.

24gb Ram.

1tb SSD.

 

It goes ok (so far).

Why would you buy one from Lazada and not an online or offline computer shop?

No reason, just convenience for COD, but I'm not opposed to buying from Banana oe Advice IT etc.

I was thinking more like 10K than 20K.

Surprisingly, it was cheaper for me to buy my Beelink mini PC from Amazon USA than Lazada, free shipping and low import duties.  However, it may be worth the extra 1500 baht or so for the local warranty from Beelink. 

 

Works great!  Amazing value!

I have friend that has the B8 and it goes ok (for him)... and is why I bought the B9.

Got a ryzen 7000 and its pretty good but the gpu is dissapointing.

I bought 2 x second hand ACER veriton N4640G  from lazada

(KPPONLINE888  3000 odd baht each)

and used one solely for the low power CPU ( in homemade Openmediavault NAS)

  I took the 4gb of ram from that and put it in the other one running windows 10  which came preinstalled and it works very well,except I don't really like win 10

and so mostly run Debian 11 on it in dual boot.

 

Mine has a wifi antenna plug  there seem to be various options 

it even has a PCI-e slot  for some "serious gaming" 😋

Got a Beelink Ryzen 7, 1TB M2, 24 GB RAM, W11 Pro. Bht 16000. Brilliant. Built in power supply, does not get hot.

Direct from Peak PCs in Bkk, 2 days.

Yep bought one and VERY impressed. Works like a charm, no noise at all, not much bigger than a fag packet and slogs all day with no issue. Running 2 monitors of it too.

Is it a secret what you bought?

I acquired a Lenovo PC mini, i7 with 8gb memory and 250tb disk (I upgraded these myself twice, now at 32gb/2tb).

Around 4 years ago it was 6,500 THB used.

I've been very happy with it and will now seek another used model with a built-in Thunderbolt interface, so I can use an external GPU for better processing. 

 

The advantage to this sized footprint, is I can pack it in my backpack, if ever needed, as it weighs 1.5kg. I can easily add up to three HDMI monitors, five USB connections.

Did it come with power cords etc? I see some use Lenovo Think Centres for under 4000 baht but they don't say if it includes power cords.

I bought an sh optiplex from Lazada - now you mention it, it was missing the power cord. Mine was the cheapest SFF I could find (3000B) with an i3, was hellishly sluggish even tho it had an ssd. I used it for testing out docker containers, it didn’t get much use and then one day, I went to it and the power supply had gone south. I would buy another USFF but not an i3 maybe i5 or i7 like the Lenovo posted above, they are ok. 

About five years ago I bought an Acer Aspire A515-43 laptop from Lazada. I don't remember what I paid for it, but I know I shopped around locally and found this the lowest price. I use it as my backup PC. My primary one is a tower. I've had no problems with it. I did have an additional drive and more memory added about a year after buying it.

Everything in the ad should be included. So if there's a photo of the power connector then it's included. You can request to chat with the seller on Lazada just to clarify any questions.

I don't buy computers, laptops, tablets and so on from Lazada or online. I like to go directly to a computer store and buy one. I like the hands on part of it. Then I can check it out and make sure it is what I want. They can answer all of my questions right there. I have picked up some real good deals. Everyone to their own thing.

I made bad experiences with Lazada and electronics. Lazada is seems not interested to clean the mess up. A no go for me.

What CPU?

Almost everything in Lazada for electronics is fake. Sure they look real and they have the same parts as the ones from a manufacturer.. But not all is up to spec from those factories supplying them for fakes. Memory is doubled or tripled making you think it has a lot but really there is nothing. Faulty parts or so low quality that they break inside quickly or never work at all. 

The ads in Lazada will use the name of the product but ship you out a copycat one. Nothing you can do about it really except go buy one in the mall or at factory store. 

Be careful as I am sure you have read already in this OP from others. It may be cheaper but there is a reason for that...

Nice price but I do not like to gamble with customs.

I'm happy to buy cheap items from Lazada, but not a laptop. It will probably come from China, and I don't want one from there.
