Fair value for price point – though could easily be tweaked for better value
Very easy to build, Excellent power saving device, Super quiet in fact it's completely dead silent, Dual Monitor support using Intel HD Graphics on the CPU, Could be great backup computer for long power outage with a working LAN connection and cell phon
32GB of Memory is way too little to work with; 90GB would be a great start, Passive heatsink lets processor get hot, Limited USB ports, Comes with a DVD that is useless unless you have another computer or a portable USB DVD drive
It's really hard to believe that you are using a silent little box with a green light on it to do and run all that you can do on this computer. It's as good as many laptops with a desktop feeling. I know the test results put it dead last but it really do...
The ECS LIVA MINI PC Kit is a first generation product and with all first generation products there are issues that need to be worked out. The LIVA isn't a bad product by any means, but there are several things we aren't a fan of. More importantly we are ...
On the flip side, the LIVA kit does have aspects that can be fixed by ECS. One of our major peeves was the positioning of the two USB ports. The placement between the micro-USB power inlet and the HDMI port makes it very difficult to utilize the USB ports...

The ECS LIVA X surprised me with its small size and completely silent operation. I was able to surf the internet and do work on it very quickly. I enjoyed using it and experienced no problems with browsing the internet, using Office applications, or watch...

It may not be the PC for gamers or heavy productivity scenarios. But for normal daily performance and work – it is more than enough. Plus, it is silent and cool running too.(previously published in issue March 2015)...
The ECS LIVA Mini PC Kit retails at RM 699 for the 32GB variant, so expect the price to be a little for the 64GB variant. 32GB space is just enough for people who don't hog space, alternative going Linux for OS might be a good idea. As a computer, the ...
Small, compact size, Very low power draw, Built in WIFI/BT module, Up to 64GB internal storage, Good enough performance for home use (browsing, office productivity tools)
No Kensington lock, Should've went with USB3.0 for all ports, Chassis has no VESA mount (coming in newer model)
The ECS LIVA is basically a tablet in a mini-PC body, repurposed to serve a more familiar role for the consumer, the ECS LIVA Mini PC address some key concerns from households and SMBs in managing their computers and that's price and power efficiency. Wit...

Capable Intel bay TrailM System, Works with Ubuntu out of the box, Good passive cooling solution, Energy Efficient, Good value for money, Easy to setup
Could use another pair of USB ports
The ECS LIVA is a surprising product as I never actually expected it to perform very well considering its form factor. For a product with such dimensions, it actually performed like a well-oiled machine comparable to the ones we've got 10 years ago withou...
The ECS Liva is a great addition to the mini PC genre. It doesn't win any performance crowns or beat any rivals with larger than life specifications but it can run Windows and can be used to browse the internet, watch movies and even play some old or lo...
