ASUS NUC 15 Pro+ Mini PC

A premium, ultra-compact workstation with top-tier performance and portability.

- 

The ASUS NUC 15 Pro+ marks a new era for compact PCs, taking Intel's legendary NUC line and pushing it into a premium, creator-focused territory. What stands out instantly is its design and build quality. The mix of metal and plastic casing strikes a fine balance between strength and portability, with a smooth aluminum finish that feels reminiscent of Apple's design language. Weighing just 600 grams and measuring 144 x 112 x 42 mm (only 0.67 liters in volume), this is one of the most compact yet powerful systems you can buy today.

Under the hood, the ASUS NUC 15 Pro+ doesn't compromise on performance. It is powered by Intel's Ultra 9 285H processor, a 16-core, 16-thread hybrid CPU designed for heavy multitasking, creative workloads, and even demanding productivity tasks. In my usage, whether it was handling 4K video editing projects or pushing through CPU-intensive applications, the system remained responsive and snappy without maxing out CPU utilization.
