Bmax B4 Plus 2025 (Intel N95)
Published on
The 2025 Bmax B4 Plus is a small Windows 11 Pro desktop for office work, schoolwork, and video playback, sold in one configuration: an Intel N95, 12GB of LPDDR5, and a 512GB SSD. The original N100 B4 Plus used a memory slot and a 2.5-inch drive bay; this version solders its memory to the board and has a second M.2 slot in place of the bay. It uses the same case, ports, and storage layout as the Bmax B4 Ultra, which runs the newer Intel N150 with stronger graphics.

Front and rear ports, two M.2 slots, gigabit Ethernet
The front panel holds a 3.5mm headset jack, two USB 3.0 Type-A ports at 5Gbps, a USB-C port, and the power button. The rear holds two HDMI 2.1 ports, two USB 2.0 ports, the gigabit Ethernet jack, and the 12V barrel input. The blue case measures about 4.3 x 4.1 x 1.4 inches and weighs about half a pound, according to Bmax’s specifications.
Each HDMI port is rated for 4K at 60Hz, so two 4K monitors run at full refresh. Bmax’s spec sheet lists the USB-C port for data transmission only, so plan on two displays, not three, and do not count on a single-cable USB-C monitor. Wireless is Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) with Bluetooth 5.0. The single Ethernet port runs at 1Gbps, which is fine for a desktop but slower than the 2.5GbE found on some N-series boxes used as home servers.
The board has two M.2 2280 slots: one NVMe slot wired at PCIe 3.0 x2 and one SATA slot. Bmax’s own materials disagree on whether the included drive is SATA or NVMe, so open the case and check which slot is free before buying a second drive. Memory is 12GB of LPDDR5 at 4400MHz, soldered to the board and not upgradeable. That covers a browser with many tabs and an office suite, but it leaves little room for virtual machines or many containers; for that work, pick a box with SO-DIMM slots.
Intel N95 CPU and graphics performance
The Intel Processor N95 is an Alder Lake-N chip from early 2023 with 4 cores, 4 threads, 6MB of cache, and a 3.4GHz boost. Its PassMark CPU score is about 5,280, within a few percent of the Intel N100 (about 5,310) and the N150 (about 5,340). For documents, browsing, and video calls, the three chips perform about the same.
The N95 has weaker graphics than the N100 and N150. Its Intel UHD Graphics has 16 execution units clocked up to 1.2GHz, against 24 units in the N100 and N150. Both handle 4K video playback, including AV1, but the N95 has less headroom for light games. The Mini PC Comparison Chart lists N95, N100, and N150 boxes side by side.
Frequently Asked Questions
What processor does the 2025 Bmax B4 Plus use?
It uses the Intel Processor N95, a 4-core, 4-thread Alder Lake-N chip. Intel rates its base power at 15W, against 6W for the N100 and N150.
How is it different from the older Bmax B4 Plus?
The older B4 Plus has an Intel N100 and 16GB of DDR4, against the N95 and 12GB of LPDDR5 in the 2025 model. The 2025 case is also smaller.
How is it different from the Bmax B4 Ultra?
The B4 Ultra has an Intel N150 with 24 graphics execution units and lists at $199.99; the 2025 B4 Plus has the N95 with 16 units and lists at $265.99.
Can I upgrade the RAM or storage?
Only the storage. The NVMe slot is a PCIe 3.0 x2 link, which caps any drive in it at about 2GB/s. The SATA slot is limited to about 600MB/s, which suits a bulk storage drive.
What is in the box?
The box holds the mini PC, a 12V 2A power adapter, an HDMI cable, a VESA mounting bracket, and a user manual. Windows 11 Pro comes installed.
