I also scored one for £99 last week. Absolute bargain, even if I didn't need it. Should make a handy bedroom media hub.

I've had constant problems connecting over wifi since I've had this for the last 3 weeks. Connects for a few minutes and then disconnects. I've tried updating the wireless network card drivers and still no luck.. Anyone else had this issue or know of a fix?

haven't had any noticeable wifi drops with average usage eg. internet radio so generally has been working fine,
i would guess perhaps a hardware fault or interference on the wifi?
might be worth adjusting some settings in the router?
personally just ordered a Gigabit Network HUB and going to plug in some fast CAT7 cables to test this out as a Steam streaming machine on wired network
ps. forgot to mention there were 2 units on the shelf @ £150 in farnborough sainsburys a week or two ago
as a 2nd pc for office / kids / misses use seems good deal (although wife does complain it's a bit slower than our other devices) - hoping the wired network will boost firefox page loading speed

Very confusing information on packaging and very poor back up knowledge from anyone at Sainsburys. If this was indeed offering 4K I would have snatched up one there and then. Having 3 different screen resolutions on the box is both confusing and misleading.

One in Sheffield @ £150. I want to buy it but I don't need it. Must.. Resist..

lady in sainsburys wouldn't refund me the difference between the old sale price (£165) and new price (£150) unless i gave it back as a return :disappointed:
nevermind....set ours up with a wireless keyboard, mouse and JBL speaker
- as an internet machine quite chuffed with
is small, has connections, and quite fast so far...(although normally would not have considered a celeron processor but i guess the SSD speeds it up)
main downside not much hard disk space so may need to open it up to check the expansion bay, or just have MS office installed and some media software
generally very happy at the price, wouldn't have paid any more for it though

Yeah the staff took them all off in Crystal Peaks once I had pointed it out as they said they cant sell them like that.. They took my number to give me a call once they find out more.. though I cant imagine what they will find :smiley:

there are two of these available in Eltham, the price dropped to 150. I am considering to buy it as first computer for my daughter, after adding a keyboard and mouse should be a good first computer right?

It's definitely not.
It's 1080 I got the store to open one and checked it this morning.
sambartle_theone
16 Jan 16#42
The 4k section on the box refers to the net top.. The wqhd in the box under the monitor section is wrong. I had one open in the crystal peaks store this morning to check.. Monitor is definitely 1080p only.

WQHD specification on the box for the monitor. That's 2560x1440 and so I grabbed one for £150.00. If the monitor spec is wrong I'm going to return it.

I've got one of these, not the monitor though, and for streaming, surfing etc it's excellent. Thrown in an old laptop drive for a bit of extra room inside the unit and, in conjunction with a USB3 external drive, gives me all the room I need. A few small points, the internal SSD can be replaced easy along with ability to upgrade the memory, plenty of vids on YouTube, but although there is room internally for an extra two drives, 2.5" Sata, there is only one socket on the motherboard which means you can only fit one extra internal drive. I believe the higher specs allow you to fit two drives, but they are more expensive though!! HDMI only so will not fit any older monitors, although I suspect that most of the time this will sit under the TV.

HDMI > VGA adaptors are less than a tenner and will probably work with this if needed, although given a monitor comes as part of the deal It probably isn't (Certainly the one I have works on an old mointor with a fireTV Stick)

Two in Bury St Edmund's store, lunchtime 11 01 2016. I'm undecided, not sure about the speck, and I don't really need another monitor. Happy Shopping.

picked up last one in Sainsburys Sydenham London(was last one on shelf) - main minus is the celeron processor but with an SSD and monitor at this price seems a bargain

I have just picked up one from Worcester. They still had at least one left in stock when I left. I will chuck in a 1tb hard drive and double the memory and use it as a media device. Cheap as chips when you consider Windows 10 and the monitor come to more price than the entire deal does when bought individually.

anyone know what the model number of the Revo One is?
Had a look at some YouTube videos and they mainly mention the RL85 which seems to be a higher spec model than this.
Inside pics - looks like this model only has 1xSSD and 1 additional hard drive socket inside with the 3rd space one not having a SATA connector fitted, unlike other higher spec models in this range.

Celeron version doesn't have hardware raid support if that's important to you.

Well the Dell micro desktop that I posted a little while back had a measley 32GB drive and 2GB ram for £99 and that went mega hot at 3379 so this represents better value if you don't mind paying for a monitor of course, but I suppose of course it was mostly due to my fabulous description and the wonderful follow on support from some great HUKD members that generated all that heat :smile:
When I saw these earlier I did momentarily wonder if I'd struck gold and hoped they'd be the i3 version we'd seen recently for £179 at Tesco :smile:

great price, given the monitor will be about £70 solo!
but as it most likely a local deal i'll refrain from heating (just yet anyway)

that still means your paying £95 for the low spec. ....... can't decide.

was looking at this earlier, couldn't decide if it was really worth it due to the low spec.
