Dell Optiplex 3060 Micro PC, Intel Core i3-8100T, 16GB DDR4 RAM, 256GB NVMe SSD, Win11Pro (Renewed)

I have now purchased three of these refurbished Dell Optiplex 3060 from two different sellers on Amazon. Two are running Windows 11 flawlessly and one is running Zorin flawlessly. All three have luckily been pretty much like new, no problems thus far. Great little computer about the size of a paperback book. They all came with wireless USB network adapters and when I needed to use them they were fine. Two of the three are wired to my network. The only thing I've had to add was a USB to 3.5mm Audio adapter but only because I didn't want to have to plug in my speakers to the headphone jack on the front of the PC. Those are not costly. Two of the units came with 2.5 SSD drives. The last one came with an M.2 SSD drive and didn't have the 2.5 disk bracket. It has connections for both drives types on the motherboard. The wired network connection is a gigabit connection.

This was a certified, reconditioned micro PC. My computer expert son-in-law re-assured me that it was perfectly OK to buy a reconditioned PC, because of the return policy and warranty. It came pre-loaded with Windows 11, which I needed to upgrade to from my old laptop Windows 10. No bulky, noisy, dust-collecting tower to deal with, like in the past. This unit is quiet and compact! Plenty of USB ports, especially if you need to connect to a portable CD drive (not included), or printer (mine lost its Wi-Fi ability decades ago). Mine even came with a keyboard and mouse bonus (USB connected). The micro PC did not come with an internal Wi-Fi, but it did come with a Wi-Fi USB dongle, which works great. I'm not a gamer, so this is perfectly fine for my general computing and internet use. I'm impressed with how carefully this micro-PC was reconditioned and packaged for shipping. It felt like I was buying a brand new one. Setting it up was a breeze, following on-screen prompts.

Only time will tell of course if this DELL PC holds up long term. However after receiving two weeks ago I just have to say the following. This pc came with a keyboard and mouse (cheapies but who cares) and was nicely packaged. I swear this had to be a new PC. It was 100% utterly unmarked and even factory labels on the underside looked as though had been attached the day before. It was preloaded with W11 Pro and set up in no time (albeit with a Microsoft account forced on you, but easily switched to a local acount after set up). It is fast (I don't use for gaming), is TOTALLY silent and the free temp monitor software I loaded shows it is running perfectly normally with all cores at about 45 degrees C). Only negative comment I have is that, like most refurbished PCs now it seems, it only comes with 90 day warranty - note: if you buy it with most Visa/MC cards your card extends the warranty to 180 days - on almost anything else you buy too. My overall comment is: "If troublefree ongoing, then this top brand DELL 3060 W11 Pro micro PC, that is no bigger than a paperback novel, is a super value for about $150 including tax and free delivery".

I was disappointed when the Amazon delivery driver handed me the package and it was in a tiny box. about 7 inches by 7 inches by 1.5 inches wide. I considered returning it. But I decided to give it a go. Wow! it's pretty cool for 100 bucks. Windows 11 setup was so easy that I was like a dog at a new pan when I got through with it. The DVD and the mouse are for scale. Things I really appreciate on this model are as follows. 16 GB RAM (4) 3.0 USB ports. 1 HDMI 1 DisplayPort SSD hard drive It's whisper quiet.

Ordered a Micro 3060, got a regular 3060, that was pretty badly scuffed up. I don't care about that, but the form factor was what I was looking for. The standard 3060 is not ideal / preferred / useful (almost useless) to me for what I need to do. BUT I'm in a crunch so I had to at least try to use it. Here are the goods and bads of it, most of the bads I don't care. Grading: Subtracted 3 stars for not being the right form factor. THIS was important to me Added 1 stars for better processor and I'm keeping it. BAD: Wrong form factor (Big deal for me) Onboard NIC is finicky. Obviously damaged. (Kinda big deal) Keyboard and mouse appear to be used. Bad shape. (don't care) 240 GB, not 256 GB (Kingston SUV500240G) (don't care) GOOD: Came with Intel Core i5-8500 instead of the Intel Core i3-8100T Came with Windows 10 Pro, not 11 Pro. BUT upgraded to 11 Pro easily (as easy as Windows does Windows things). Not sure I can use it for what I need, but a Windows 11 Pro box for $120, I think I'll keep and find some other use for it. Maybe put Linux on it LOL UPDATE: Forgot to mention it didn't come with Bluetooth or WiFi UPDATE: Died after one day. Don't risk it.

I’m beyond impressed with this PC! The Dell Optiplex 3060 Micro is absolutely amazing. It’s incredibly small, lightweight, and convenient — I honestly can’t believe this is a full desktop PC. Despite its compact size, it runs smoothly and handles everything I need with ease. What really made this experience exceptional was the customer support. I spoke with Eric from the support team, and he was fantastic. He was professional, helpful, and promised to take care of an issue — and he absolutely delivered. It’s rare to get support that actually follows through, and Eric went above and beyond. Between the powerful performance, sleek micro design, and outstanding customer service, this was a great purchase. I highly recommend both the product and the support team!

Highly recommend with components that fill all my needs. I run it on a wired connection and the speed is fantastic. Definitely great value for money well spent!

It works but the case was pretty bent up.. not sure of the intuit the component after looking at the case.

When we had some networking issues with the original unit, the seller was responsive to help troubleshoot, and ultimately replaced with an upgraded unit!

Es notorio el desgaste de su carcasa y los puertos vienen muy sucios, funciona bien.

Parfais pour faire un centre multimédia pour la TV. Permet de faire jouer youtube ou d'autres sites de streaming sur la TV. Rapide , efficace, compaque. Je me demande si c'est pas un article neuf, aucune trace d'usure.

The PC works great

Great little pc, very clean, looks new, works perfect!
