PELADN WI-4

Updated on June 24, 2026

The PELADN WI-4 is a palm-sized Windows 11 Pro desktop built around the Intel Celeron N5095, a four-core chip from Intel’s 11th-generation Jasper Lake family. The chassis runs about 4.88 by 4.4 inches, drives two 4K displays at 60Hz, and keeps its RAM and storage user-upgradeable rather than soldered down.

That puts the machine on a short list of jobs: a home office desktop, a media box for streaming, or a second computer for basic productivity. TechRadar Pro featured it as “the cheapest PC worth buying right now” during a sale event. Gaming and sustained heavy workloads sit outside what the N5095 and its integrated graphics can carry.

A plastic palm-sized chassis with two upgrade slots inside

The chassis measures 4.88 by 4.4 by 1.38 inches and weighs 0.6 pounds. It hangs off the back of a monitor on the included VESA mount and leaves the desk clear. The blue metallic finish sits over plastic construction, and the low weight makes it easy to move between a desk and a bag for presentations or remote work.

The Intel Celeron N5095 runs four cores at a 2.0 GHz base clock and bursts to 2.9 GHz. That covers web browsing, office applications, and a handful of tabs open alongside a document or spreadsheet, but it is not a chip that keeps pace with heavier software. The integrated Intel UHD Graphics plays 4K video smoothly, enough for a home theater setup or digital signage.

Both HDMI 2.0 ports drive an independent display at 4K and 60Hz, so a two-monitor desk works out of the box. Four USB 3.0 ports take peripherals, Gigabit Ethernet handles wired networking, and dual-band Wi-Fi 5 with Bluetooth 4.2 handles wireless. Those two radio standards are the oldest parts of the spec sheet and the ones most likely to feel dated first.

The single M.2 2280 slot accepts SATA SSDs up to 2TB. That slot replaces the 256GB or 512GB drive the machine ships with rather than supplementing it. Two SO-DIMM slots take DDR4 to 32GB total.

Reviewer Insights

Deddy Mike timed a 15-second boot and heard almost no fan

Deddy Mike opened his hands-on with the size, saying “this thing is small, can fit in the palm of my hand.” He walked through daily use from the first power-on, reaching a fully updated Windows in about 30 minutes, with later boots taking 15 seconds to a usable desktop.

Mike ran web browsing and general navigation on camera. “If I didn’t know better I would think that I was using a desktop computer that’s much much bigger than this,” he observed. On cooling, he said “It also has a built-in cooling fan that’s extremely quiet; you can hardly hear it run.” He closed with “I highly recommend the Peladn mini PC.”

TechRadar Pro judged the spec mix good for office work

TechRadar Pro covered the WI-4 during a sale event, calling it “the cheapest PC worth buying right now” at a $99 price point. Writer Wayne Williams drew on TechRadar’s experience testing mini PCs and wrote that “that combination of specs should handle everyday office tasks, web browsing, streaming, and even some light creative work without issue.”

The same piece covered mounting: “You can mount it on the back of a monitor with ease, keeping your workspace clean and clutter-free.” TechRadar Pro did not bench it.

Customer Reviews

Across 39 ratings on Amazon, the PELADN WI-4 averages 4.2 stars. The bulk of those are positive (70 percent are five-star), and the recurring praise is about value and speed for the price. Salvador Blake, a verified buyer who uses his unit for email and to drive a laser machine and 3D printer, wrote that it “Loads super fast, and performs even faster.” Carlton, also a verified purchaser running his as a kiosk workstation, said it was “Easy to set up” and “can handle running multiple applications at one time with no issues.” Several owners note the included Windows install is the minimal-RAM, minimal-storage configuration; Patrick, a verified buyer, removed the China-region Windows entirely and reported the box runs “24h/7 these days as a server.”

The low scores point at hardware reliability rather than performance. About 17 percent of ratings are one or two stars, and two verified buyers describe units failing within months. William Holcomb wrote, “I’ve used this for a month and now it won’t turn on at all,” and Jay Welch reported that the “Power supply died after about 90 days.” That is a small sample, so treat it as a flag rather than a pattern, but it is worth weighing if you need the machine to run unattended.

FAQ

Is the PELADN WI-4 good for gaming?

No. The Intel Celeron N5095 and its integrated Intel UHD Graphics do not have the power for modern games, though basic or older titles may run at low settings. Shoppers who want to play games should look at mini PCs with dedicated graphics; our Mini PC comparison chart filters by GPU.

Can I upgrade the RAM and storage?

Yes. Two SO-DIMM slots take DDR4 to 32GB total (2x16GB), and the M.2 2280 slot takes SATA SSDs to 2TB.

Does it support dual monitors?

Yes. The two HDMI 2.0 ports each drive a 4K display at 60Hz independently, so both monitors get full resolution and refresh.

How quiet is the fan?

Deddy Mike said in his hands-on that the built-in fan is “extremely quiet; you can hardly hear it run.”

What operating system does it come with?

Windows 11 Pro, pre-installed and activated. Pro adds BitLocker encryption, Remote Desktop hosting, and Hyper-V virtualization over the Home edition.

Can I mount it behind my monitor?

Yes. A VESA bracket and screws come in the box, and the bracket fits the standard 75mm and 100mm patterns on most monitors.

A quiet desk box for browsing and media

For web browsing, office productivity, media consumption, and light creative work, the combination of Intel N5095 performance, dual 4K output, and upgrade potential represents genuine value. It will not replace a desktop workstation for demanding professional work or satisfy gamers, but that has never been its purpose.

Buyers who want the configuration to last should plan for the 32GB RAM and 2TB SSD upgrades from the start, since both slots are open to the owner. The reliability reports from two verified Amazon buyers are the reason to think twice before putting one somewhere it has to run unattended.
