The FIREBAT MI2 is a compact AMD mini PC built around the Ryzen 7 7735HS (8 cores, 16 threads, up to 4.75GHz) with Radeon 680M integrated graphics, aimed at budget-conscious gamers and multitaskers. It is small, just over 5 inches square and about 2 inches tall, and its two SO-DIMM slots take up to 64GB of DDR5. Connectivity covers Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, dual 2.5G Ethernet, USB-A and USB-C ports, and a USB4 port that can also drive an external GPU.

FIREBAT is an obscure Chinese white-label brand, so availability, firmware updates, and support are uncertain, and no reliable independent review history exists for the MI2.

USB4 for an external GPU and a second drive bay

The Ryzen 7 7735HS is an 8-core, 16-thread chip that boosts to 4.75GHz, enough for everyday work and 1080p eSports gaming. The integrated Radeon 680M handles lighter titles, and the USB4 port can drive an external GPU for more demanding games (AMD platforms use USB4 rather than Intel’s Thunderbolt for this).

Storage starts with a 512GB M.2 NVMe SSD, expandable up to 2TB, and there is a 2.5-inch SATA bay for a second drive up to 2TB. Memory sits in two SO-DIMM slots that accept 32GB each, so 64GB of DDR5 is the ceiling. It uses an active fan rather than a fanless cooler, and there is no VESA mount for hiding it behind a monitor.

For ports it has dual 2.5G Ethernet, one HDMI, one DisplayPort, USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 Type-A, and a USB-C port rated for USB4. That is a good spread for a chassis 5.12 inches square, though it stops at a single HDMI and a single DisplayPort.

Amazon ratings on FIREBAT listings cover other models

No verifiable independent review of the MI2 has been published. The video commonly linked to it is a generic “Ryzen mini PC from AliExpress” review that never names the FIREBAT brand, the MI2 model, or the 7735HS on screen. On Amazon, FIREBAT pools several models (the A6, A8, and MI2), and the listing that carried owner reviews is the A6, a different machine with an OCuLink port the MI2 does not have, so its rating and reviews do not describe this model. If you want this hardware, confirm the exact model (MI2, not A6 or A8) and new condition before buying.

Buy a 7735HS box from a brand you can look up

On paper the specs cover everyday work and 1080p eSports gaming: a Ryzen 7 7735HS with Radeon 680M, up to 64GB of DDR5, USB4 with eGPU support, and dual 2.5G Ethernet. High-end gaming and professional content creation need a stronger machine like the Beelink SER7. FIREBAT itself is the bigger risk, since support and availability are uncertain and no clean MI2 listing or independent review backs the hardware up, which makes a comparable 7735HS box from an established brand the safer buy.
