As a conclusion, the Liva Mini PC may not have the high processing power of expensive high-end rigs, but its performance coincides on its small size as it aims more to a different audience: those who needs a low-cost, space efficient office desktop and those who wants an affordable multimedia device for their large screen TVs. Sadly, there is no bundle of a wireless remote that could help sell the Liva as an HTPC. It may not be able to play most of the latest 3D games for those consumers that wants a cheaper alternative for their PC gaming, but for the retro gaming enthusiasts, the Liva can play 2D games and older 3D games. With its small size, it is very much open for any possible customization, including replacing the entire casing with a different one or turning it into a retro gaming console machine.

The Liva Mini PC is a great mini desktop computer that can replace all of the bulky office desktops and could even become a mini home theater device at your living room. It may not be a powerful mini PC, but it can still handle the light programs and other office software in a breeze.

The Good

• Small sized mini PC
• Low Power Consumption
