Plus, since it stays hooked up to the big TV, there is no worry about bringing laptop or big computer. Battery inside it giving safety for not letting shutdown in case of power failure.

   Magicstick given Great performance for basic digital signage needs.
Magicstickis great for… read more digital signage applications. Runs 1080p video at up to 60fps no problem. It is impressive performance. I was also able to push some 4k footage through it as well (it’s only HDMI 1.4 so don’t worry about 60fps.) I tested it with TouchDesigner software and it works perfectly for what I need. Also, do yourself a favor and buy a USB type c hub for it (preferably one with built in Gigabit Ethernet.) It does the job just fine though if you’re patient. Once she’s up and running… everything is great.

As for every day users. if you need to just watch netflix, look at pictures, do some minor editing of documents/spreadsheets, or just surf the web. Don’t waste your money on a full-blown desktop, laptop or even a NUC. This has all the performance you need.

Quality of product made Magicstick a reputable brand. It works great for playing videos on a TV screen and it is hard to tell the difference from a full fledged desktop PC. The remote keyboard option is extremely useful too. It has battery but no fan made it very comfortable device.

Magicstick is… read more windows 10 pc that plugs into my tv. Runs minecraft from the windows store flawlessly. Got it for my kid so she can go to pbs kids netflix etc. It does the job it was intends to do very well. Now no more headache to connect my laptop to TV.

   I am using it with the TV in the bedroom as… read more a PC. I was pleasantly surprised when it worked right out of the box. Wireless connection was effortless with both 2.4 ghz, even though the bedroom is on the third floor and the router is in my basement. It is slow at times but what can you expect with an Atom processor and 2GB of RAM? The key here is realistic expectations. I did notice that during 4K playback in the bedroom it buffers frequently and drops frames, but this is likely due to the distance from the router. It did play almost flawlessly when hooked up the the living room TV on the first floor. However, overall performance is satisfactory when doing routine things like watching YouTube videos, surfing the web, email, etc. I’m just amazed that all this power is packed into what looks like an oversize USB drive.

   So far, Magicstick has worked well for me. I would give it… read more a 5 star rating except I really don’t like Windows 10 very much (but I guess that isn’t Magicstick fault). I use this with a 50″ LG Plasma HD TV. I added a USB 4 port hub and connected a 256GB memory stick and 2 Hauppage USB recorder / tuners. I don’t like Windows 10: they killed off a perfectly good Media Center Application so that they could sell this same functionality on the Xbox. I’m not a gamer so why do I need an Xbox to record tv?
I guess this is about twice as much as a Google Chome stick, or Amazon Fire stick, but it has SO much more functionality as a regular computer that it is worth the cost. It works well enough for me to finally end my TiVo subscription and the $15 monthly fee.

   Awesome Magicstick one for school work/workstation tasks can even play some… read more retro games on steam and watch full 1080p videos with little to no buffer depending I am assuming on internet is all. It is my surprise, It has no fan inside and not slowing down in performance. I was using earlier intel stick which often gets up there in temp the little fan gets kinda this annoying ringing sound which always kill mood of watching smooth movies and playing game,. Magicstick one is 1 Million times superior than all other sticks. It has been really carved to perfection !

   Magicstick in our office as BYOD device
I installed Magicstickone in… read more a clinical environment where virtually all activity was cloud-based with MS Office 365 and a cloud-based EMR system. It replaced an older system running Windows 7. The performance is excellent in our environment. We have little other software installed on the unit. Over time, I intend to replace all of our older desktop computers with this unit or a subsequent release. From an IT perspective, the unit is easy to manage, requires little maintenance, has no mechanical components (like hard drives or DVD drives or Fan), and is just about perfect for cloud-based applications. I would not install applications that require a high-performance processor. Local storage can be obtained via either USB 3.0 or NAS or on a micro-SD.
Magicstick is BYOD device in our office now. It has plug n play USB C type dock and also battery so, It is as easy to connect as USB drive. It is perfect device for all different types of offices.
I replaced WIndows 10 x86 with Windows 10 x64, added a hibernation file, and then installed Office 365 (x64 variant), plus Adobe Reader, plus few other (small) programs. I still have more than 10GB of usable storage. Hint: don’t save your data on the device; save it on one of the cloud services. Microsoft gives you 5GB free (plus 1TB if you have Office 365), and Google gives you 15GB free.

   Fantastic! Magicstick !
Magicstick is amazing! Out of the box I had no… read more problem at all. First before I powered it up I plugged in a GOOD Logitech USB/Keyboard combination dongle into one of the USB ports on the side. I used the HDMI male to female cable to plug it into my projector mounted on my ceiling. Once everything was plugged in I made sure the projector was selected for HDMI2 [I connected to HDMI2 port of projector] and then plugged in the power supply. Magicstick has battery inside but I connected to power adapter to be safe. After 2 seconds it shown Magocstick logo and after a few seconds it began to boot windows 10 and has magicstick account autologin.I landed to windows 10 desktop. A few more tweaks and this was shared on my home network, had my wifi printer up and working, adode reader installed and changed over so pdf’s open with it instead of the default “Edge” Played a couple videos, streamed a few tv shows from xfinity live tv viewer, Netflix, amazon prime video and everything worked perfectly and no lag. Picture looks amazing on my optoma 1080p projector.

I’m sitting here writing this review using Magicstick right now. All of this is in my living room including my wifi router which is probably about 20′ from the device and my keyboard/mouse combination is maybe 15′ from the device and I have NO issues with range, connectivity, signal strength from either wifi or keyboard/mouse. I have 5 bars, the max, indicated on my wifi signal strength. Why on earth I just bought a $1500 dell laptop now is beyond me. This has everything I need and want to be able to do with a PC connected to my projector and none of the bulk or wiring needed to do that with a desktop or laptop.

For the sound right now it is coming out of my projector which has a speaker in it and works pretty good. I certainly can turn up the volume so I can clearly hear anything just as good as any tv speaker could. the sound is coming into the projector via the HDMI plug so no wires or anything just plug and play to the projector via the HDMI. Ultimately, I want the sound to come out of my surround sound speaker system that all my other components plugged into my projector do. To accomplish this my projector has an “audio out” jack on it which is the 1/8 plug type. I have an extra audio wiring schema run from my stereo to the projector I am not currently using should be easy enough to use that and get the sound from the audio out on the projector back to the stereo. I just need to get a really short 1/8 stereo wire so I don’t have wires hanging all over the place from my ceiling as everything is hidden with wires I already ran from the stereo to the projector.

As far as overfilling the screen goes a good tv/projector like mine allow me to adjust the image size to fit just like xbox games when you first play them sometimes have you adjust the screen size to fill the screen. Also out of the box my stick computer/windows 10 text/app size was set to 150% and was “recommended” I set that to 100% percent to take full advantage of the full screen size but that displays everything to small and so I set it back to 150%. There is no reason you should have to scale this back to a smaller resolution it’s all in the settings.

I ran the audio out of my projector to my stereo via some wires that were already in my ceiling that were not being used and now I have complete setup to stream video, etc. it worked perfectly. Please believe me. It is very good for gaming” I installed STEAM on this last night and it worked and looked fantastic on my projector.

I tested it with dual display, HDMI connected to monitor and USB C type connected to TV. It worked extended desktop very well. Thanks for such a nice product.
