AMD is stingy with improvements. The IdeaPad Pro 5 14AGP11 is a high-quality subnotebook from Lenovo which, in the tested configuration, comes equipped with an eight-core chip based on Zen 5. Read on to find out how the Ryzen AI 7 450 fares against its predecessor and Intel's competition.

Everyday hero in miniature. The Geekom A5 Pro combines the Ryzen 5 7530U, the Radeon Vega 7, DDR4 RAM and an SSD - compact, suitable for everyday use and attractively priced. But how does the system compare to the competition and how efficiently does the mini PC work in everyday use? In our test, we took a close look at the performance based on numerous measurements.

Full of surprises. The slim edition of Lenovo's popular Yoga series comes with an elegant and particularly thin chassis. We look at which aspects work, which ones suffer, and how the fresh Ryzen AI 7 445 processor performs in our review.

Power Cube for gaming and AI. The Acemagic M1A Pro+ combines powerful high-end hardware with an eye-catching case: Equipped with the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395, 128 GB RAM and a powerful Radeon graphics unit, the mini PC offers plenty of performance for gaming and professional workloads. In this test, we show how the system performs in benchmarks, games and under continuous load - and whether it is one of the most powerful mini PCs in its class.

New SoC equals more power? Minisforum is updating the AI X1 Pro and is now giving the compact powerhouse the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 470, bringing an even more powerful APU to the fore that promises additional reserves, especially for demanding workloads and AI applications. But can the new processor actually meet the high expectations in practice?

Modern equipment at a fair price. The Peladn HO5 with AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 and Radeon 890M is a powerful mini PC for around $1,000. In our review, we examine performance, efficiency, volume, and features, including OCuLink. Can the compact Strix Point computer stand up to Minisforum and Geekom?

Lightweight, compact and affordable. The Chuwi CoreBook Air with AMD Ryzen 5 6600H offers a balanced mix of mobility, everyday performance, and a matte IPS display that is well suited for longer work sessions. In combination with 16 GB of RAM and an NVMe SSD, the result is a compact overall package that is primarily aimed at budget-oriented users who are looking for a lightweight notebook for office, web, and multimedia.

Great overall package. With the GMKtec NucBox M7 Ultra, the manufacturer combines the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850U with a compact mini PC case and versatile connectivity. Our test clarifies how well cooling, performance and energy efficiency harmonize in everyday use based on practical measurements and benchmarks.

Efficient mini PC with powerful CPU. The Alliwava GH8 aims to show just how much performance can be packed into a mini PC today. With the AMD Ryzen 9 8945HS, fast DDR5 RAM, and a PCIe SSD, the compact system comes with hardware that is usually found in much larger computers. But is the performance sufficient for everyday use, and how do the cooling, noise, and efficiency perform in practice? We get to the bottom of these questions in this review.

Zen 5 Refresh. AMD is only cautiously updating its mobile processors for 2026. Apart from a slightly higher clock rate, support for faster RAM, and faster NPUs, the new Gorgon Point CPUs do not differ from last year's Strix Point models, so Zen 5 cores and the familiar RDNA 3.5 iGPUs are still used.

Ryzen 9 7940HS still top dog in 2026. With the Geekom A7 Max, the manufacturer is sending a powerful mini PC with AMD Ryzen 9 7940HS and Radeon 780M into the race. DDR5 RAM, a fast PCIe SSD, and numerous connections sound promising. But can the compact system deliver this performance over the long term - and how does it perform in terms of cooling, noise, and efficiency in everyday use?

Midrange performance for most applications. The NucBox M8 isn't trying to be the fastest mini PC out there, but its balanced approach to performance and price makes it much easier to recommend for most general applications.

Versatile all-rounder. The Minisforum AI X1 is a compact mini PC with surprisingly high performance. Equipped with the AMD Ryzen 7 255, modern iGPU and efficient cooling, it is aimed at users who are looking for a versatile computer for work, multimedia, and light gaming. In our review, we check how well it performs in terms of performance, noise, and energy efficiency.

Compact comeback. The Sapphire Edge AI combines the new Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 with a compact, visually appealing case and versatile connectivity. The key question here is how well the cooling system handles the powerful hardware and how efficient the mini PC is in everyday use. Our test provides clear answers based on extensive measurements and benchmarks.

Premium office notebook. In the more affordable configuration of the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 16AKP10, both the Ryzen AI 5 330 and the integrated Radeon 820M make their first appearance. We compare its performance with the higher-priced models and assess whether their premium is justified.
