GEEKOM sent us a review sample of the A7 2026 Edition mini PC powered by a 4.9 GHz AMD Ryzen 5 7545U hexa-core/12-thread processor, paired with 16GB DDR5 SO-DIMM memory and a 500 GB NVMe SSD.It comes with two HDMI 2.0 ports and two USB4 with DisplayPort Alt mode to enable four-monitor setups, 2.5GbE, WiFi 6E, and Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity, an SD card reader, a 3.5mm audio jack, and a few USB-A ports. As its name implies, it’s a variant of the GEEKOM A7 (Ryzen 9 7940HS) mini PC we reviewed in 2024 with Windows 11 Pro and Ubuntu 22.04/24.04, and we’ll keep that in mind to compare the more affordable 2026 Edition to its older sibling in our three-part review.In this article, we will cover the full specifications, unbox the device, go through a teardown to check the hardware design, and boot it to the pre-installed Windows 11 Pro OS for a first look. We’ll then test the AMD Ryzen 5 7545U mini PC in depth with Windows 11 and Ubuntu 26.04 in the next parts of the review.
