Asus VivoMini UN62 Review

Asus VivoMini UN62 Review
Welcome to a Laptop AC Adapter specialist of the Asus Ac Adapter
We've said before that the days of hulking desktop towers are pretty much over. Most people will never need space for add-on cards, huge power supplies and multiple hard drives. With even reasonable specifications, cooling does not require huge fans anymore. Optical drives are dead, wireless connectivity is good enough for most purposes, and everything else can be plugged in via USB or done online. Unless you are a gamer or creative professional with specific needs, you can be happy with a PC like this, which is only a little bigger than the average restaurant takeaway box.
Asus is getting serious about its own line of miniature desktop PCs. Boxes this size used to come with early Intel Atom processors which with adapter like Asus Eee PC 1015PD AC Adapter, Asus B43 AC Adapter, Acer ADP-65JH DB AC Adapter, Acer ADP-60NH AC Adapter, Asus Eee PC 1016 AC Adapter, Asus A6 AC Adapter, Asus U5 AC Adapter, Asus ADP 65JH CB AC Adapter, Asus ADP-36EH AC Adapter, Asus A8 AC Adapter, Asus U5F AC Adapter, Asus Eee PC 1215 AC Adapterwere only good enough for basic productivity. They were considered weak and sub-par compared to full-sized desktops. Those days are gone - in fact with laptops displacing desktops everywhere, it should be no surprise that companies are taking the same parts designed for small spaces and coming up with boxes without their own screens and keyboards that are even smaller and lighter.
The VivoMini UN62 is understated yet good looking. At 131mm square and 42mm tall, it's similar in size to Zotac's Zbox mini-PCs. It's smaller (but taller) than even the current-generation Mac Mini. In fact, it's only just a little bigger than a standard internal DVD-RW drive and looks more like a router or external hard drive than a fully functional PC. At 1kg, you can pretty much carry it around anywhere.
The VivoMini made of dark plastic and will look at home on any desk or even next to your living room TV. It's slightly bowl-shaped; tapering towards the bottom, with rubber legs that allow it to take air in without obstruction. There are also mounting points for the included VESA bracket on the bottom, so you can hang the VivoMini off the back of an LCD monitor.
The top has a silver Asus logo right in the centre of a pattern of fine concentric rings, very similar to what we've seen on the company's ZenFone range. It looks great when it catches the light at an angle. There's a power button right in the middle of the front panel, with an integrated white power LED that thankfully isn't distractingly bright. There's also a second indicator slightly to its left, for some reason.
The right edge is blank but there are ports all around the other sides. On the rear panel, there's a DC power inlet, full-sized HDMI and DisplayPort video outputs, two USB 3.0 ports, a Gigabit Ethernet jack, and a 3.5mm headset socket. Hot air is exhausted out through a vent running above all the ports. There are two more USB 3.0 ports on the left in addition to an SD card slot and a Kensington security lock slot.
The modern display outputs allow you to run three screens simultaneously (using a DisplayPort daisy-chain). The two USB ports on the left allow fast charging. In short, there's more than enough for most connectivity needs. We'd suggest going with wireless peripherals as far as possible to keep things looking good.
