amazon ECS Liva reviews
The sample we received was a complete, boxed version. Product images with the parameters are clearly printed, full right outside.
Inside: Liva mini computer, case, guidebook, driver disc, adapter and wifi antenna.
The adapter comes with only 5V – 3A power supplies, which means that Liva consumes less power, up to 15W.
It looks like ECS wants to impress the user by leaving the board out of the shell rather than closing it. Our whole computer is tiny, ultra light and compact in the palm of your hand.
The CPU cooler is just a piece of copper heatsink, no fans needed.
Since this is a micro PC, the components are also specially designed, different from the regular desktop. In this photo is a 1333 MHz RAM chip manufactured by Samsung, in the same way as a flash memory chip.
Here is the mini wifi card. Although mini but very strong wave.
The feeling of installation before use is fascinating. The first is to attach a wifi antenna to the box, the other end attached to the wifi card.
The front panel is the Power button, the audio out and the active LEDs. Liva has no reset button.
On the back is a micro USB charging port, Ethernet port, a USB 2.0 port, a USB 3.0 port, an HDMI port and a Dsub port.
Using fanless passive cooling fans, all four sides of Liva are grille.
Having both HDMI and Dsub ports, Liva can output up to two monitors, both for work and play.
The product uses the Celeron N2807 CPU, a 22 nm Silvermont architecture, dual-core processor clocked at 2,166 GHz.
Liva is equipped with 2 GB of DDR3 RAM, running at 1333 MHz.
