Comments

Picked this Z2 Mini for 3D work and it’s surprisingly powerful for its size. The Intel Ultra 5 handles real-time rendering fine, and the tiny footprint frees up my desk. Ports are decent—two USB-C and plenty of USB-A. I like that I can upgrade storage later with the M.2 slots. Sustainability features are a nice bonus. Only wish it had a bit more RAM out of the box. Solid little workstation.
