Beelink EQ mini (Intel N150)

The Beelink EQ mini (Intel N150) is a small Windows desktop for office work, browsing, and video, about 4.4 inches square and 1.5 inches tall. The power supply sits inside the case, so a plain AC cord replaces the usual power brick. The 12GB of LPDDR5 is soldered to the board and cannot be upgraded later. Beelink also sells an EQ mini with the newer Intel Core 3 304, a different machine with different ports.

Five USB ports, two HDMI ports, and an internal 45W supply

The front of the navy blue case carries the power button, a 10Gbps USB-C port, a 10Gbps USB-A port, a combo headphone jack, a power light, and a pinhole CLR CMOS button. The back holds two more 10Gbps USB-A ports, one USB 2.0 port, two HDMI ports, the Gigabit Ethernet jack, and the AC inlet. Beelink rates the internal supply at 12V and 3.75A (45W). Air enters through the bottom of the case and leaves through a vent strip above the rear ports, and the top and sides are closed.

Storage starts with a 500GB M.2 SSD. The case has two M.2 2280 slots: the first runs at PCIe 3.0 x4 and accepts NVMe or SATA drives, and the second runs at PCIe 3.0 x1 and accepts NVMe drives only. Beelink rates each slot for drives up to 2TB. The x1 link limits the second drive to roughly 1GB/s.

Wireless comes from an Intel AX101 card with Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2. Wired networking is a single Gigabit port. With Wake-on-LAN and automatic power-on after a power cut, the EQ mini works as an always-on file or media server. Each of the two HDMI ports is rated for 4K at 60Hz. Beelink specs the USB-C port for 10Gbps data with no display output.

Office work and 4K streaming on the N150

The Intel N150 is a four-core, four-thread Twin Lake chip that boosts to 3.6GHz, with 6MB of cache and Intel graphics with 24 execution units. It scores about 5,300 in PassMark’s CPU test. That suits office suites, many browser tabs, video calls, and 4K streaming with AV1 hardware decoding, but not modern games or heavy photo and video work. The N150 launched in early 2025 as a small clock bump over the N100, so the EQ mini performs much like other N150 boxes such as the Beelink EQ14 and Beelink Mini S13.

The EQ14 and Mini S13 take a replaceable DDR4 stick, while the EQ mini has 12GB of LPDDR5-4800 soldered to the board. The N150 supports only 16GB and a single memory channel, so the ceiling is low either way, but 12GB leaves less room for many tabs alongside a virtual machine or a few containers. The EQ14 also adds a second Ethernet port. The Beelink EQi 304 costs more and uses the 2026 Intel Core 3 304. Compare more models in the Mini PC Comparison Chart.
