One thing we're really loving about tech this year is the explosion of mini PCs. We're seeing a lot more of them and they're super affordable, rather powerful, and absolutely tiny. Some come with the latest AMD CPU, others run on Intel, some feature DDR4, others come with the newer DDR5. Storage is usually not a problem with mini PCs, either, and multitasking on multiple screens is expected.
I've gone ahead and hunted all the best mini PC deals you can currently get your hands on right now. Here are the best early Prime Day mini PC discounts I found, along with my recommendations.
