Models
The GMKtec media player comes in different models, featuring different CPUs, memory and storage sizes. The model we've tested is the N97 featuring the Alder Lake CPU, 12GB memory and 256GB storage.
Automatic Updates
You can find the installation package in the setup section, but make sure you check our FAQ for additional information on how to make sure the operating system doesn't update when you least expect it.
Device Testing
The only thing we were able to put a finger on, looking at the specs, was the GPU. The GPU is not the strongest and that unfortunately shows up when we pushed advanced content to the GMKtec. We do not recommend using zones with this media player. You have plenty of memory and storage, so this media player is not prone to crash due to lack of resources.
Form Factor
Even though the GMKtec fits in a hand, it features dual HDMI, MicroUSB, MiniJack (Audio out) and three regular USB 3.0 ports.
Windows 11 Pro
Windows 11 Pro is included in the package when you get the GMKtec media player.
