HP EliteDesk 800 G2 Mini Business Desktop PC Intel Quad-Core i5-6500T up to 3.1G,16GB DDR4,512GB SSD,VGA,DP Port,Windows 10 Professional 64 Bit-Multi-Language-English/Spanish (Renewed)

I purchased this for a SMALL portable recording studio.. Presonus 5 is running excellent,,USB C is a Plus. mine came with two DP's in the back, Bonus.. the USB 3 in the front has charging power even when the unit is powered down. Startup is 15 seconds.. SSD is not the card type, its the HD type, Bonus... all the USB's are upgraded to 3.0 or higher - the WiFi connected all on its own with no problems, I plugged in direct to download and install my studio programs and it wasn't that much faster.. bought the $20 wireless keyboard and mouse at Walmart and it's better, stock one is super cheap but will get you up and running.The windows 10 pro sticker looks legit. no problems except windows 10 basic install browser that sucks and wants to control you.. Still need to uninstall that - annoying start-up sign-in crap..I bought this unit and had to return the first one, it started up and worked fine but would shut down after 10 or 15 minutes .. I actually liked it so much I bought as second one before they even refunded my money on the first.. It only took about 2 weeks to get refunded... Thank you for being an honest company..

It does everything I need it to, and much faster than any desktop or laptop I've had in the past. I was worried it wouldn't have a very good graphics card, but I'm able to play all the games I could on my most recent laptop. My "only" complaint is that the WiFi is not internal and instead takes up one of the USB slots...

The computers are good. I have used dozens of these for different projects. This is the first time I purchased from the "Amazon Renewed Store" and not directly from a refurbisher. I guess they use different companies for this, but the five computers I received were from "My Technology Geeks."There were no keyboards or mice, despite being in the description. Usually, they are the cheapest keyboard and mice available, but providing none is even cheaper, I suppose. I was able to make do with stock on hand.One of the computers had a terrible rattle when I unpacked it. Unfortunately, there is a security sticker on them, so if you open it, I guess that means the warranty is void. I opened it up to find the SSD just flopping around inside. It had fallen loose from the connectors. Instead of using the appropriate four screws to hold the SSD in, they only used two, and put those two on the end that would not be secured by the locking mechanism. I put them in the correct spot and remounted the drive, but I fear call-backs from customers of the other four who move their computer, and their drive falls out. This is just carelessness on the refurbisher to do that.One of the computers had some serious scratches that can be viewed from across the room, so much worse than "There will be no visible cosmetic imperfections when held at an arm’s length".Lastly, one of the cables from the outlet to the power brick was bad. I had one on hand, but just a lack of plugging something in to make sure it works before sending it out the door made it a slightly disappointing purchase.I understand that refurbished/renewed is not new, but some quality control is lacking by some of their providers, and you should be cautious. I think if I reached out to them, they would have made things right, but this project was on a time constraint, and I had to make do with what I had at the time.UPDATE: After one of the computers was in service for a couple of hours, it failed. Power light but the screen was blank, nothing on power-up on VGA or DP. After some troubleshooting, found one of the RAM modules was bad. The computer is working with one module in place, but did contact mycomputergeeks.com and dealt with Kumar who was very helpful and is shipping out a replacement. They provided a tracking number before I hung up. So bumped up from 3 to 4 stars.

It worked great for a week. Then, I received an error code, and it won't boot up. I'll figure it out. But, it's frustrating that I'm having this issue when I have other things to tackle. I love the size and was excited to get it running.

The first HP EliteDesk computer would not power on. I contacted Amazon Refurbish, who in turn contacted the vendor, Overstock Deal. Overstock Deal could not find any record of my order. Amazon told me to return the computer and they would send a replacement. The replacement would not power on either. I decided the problem might be with the power supply cord and brick. So I ordered a different one from Amazon. With that the computer powered on. It is now in production, and I am quite happy with it. It is small, runs quiet, and has lots of USB ports. Even with having to buy a new power supply, I feel the computer is a bargain.

Bought this to replace a bulky tower system in my 3D printing workshop. System size works perfectly for what I needed, Solid State Drive and 16Gb memory coupled with the i5-6500T give this system plenty of power and speed to grind through the tasks I need to perform on it in a timely mannerVery satisfied with this purchase!

Didn't support audio over Display Port even after updating drivers via the HP support application and BIOS. The wireless was slow, and the SSD capacity less than advertised. Searching the web reports many DisplayPort audio issues for the Elitedesk 800 G2 Mini with no consistent solution.Considering 2024, the Intel i5-6500T from 2015 doesn't support Windows 11 and Windows 10 end of support is October 2025 without further security updates. Consider at least a Ryzen 3400GE(2019) or Intel i5-8500T (2018) to future proof. However, if you're rolling out cheap Linux workstations, have at it.If your purpose is gaming or graphics intensive work, consider an AMD Ryzen 5 over Intel i5 around this cost since integrated Intel graphics at the time stunk.

The HP 800 G2 EliteDesk Mini arrived and is in perfect condition. If I didn't know better I would swear it was new. Inspected and not a spec of dust anywhere inside or outside. Booted perfectly into a clean installation of Windows 10 and Activated with no problems. All devices are shown in device manager none had any driver issues.I couldn't be happier with this purchase.
