ECS, properly known as Elitegroup Computer Systems, has been around for ages. Founded in 1987, they have carved out their place in the industry as a leading OEM. Not to be left out, however, they also dabble in the consumer market, having at one time or another offered mini-PCs, laptops, graphics cards, etc. As of today, they offer tablets, systems, digital signage systems, motherboards, and even IoT devices. Suffice it to say, ECS is kind of like Foxconn in that even if you haven't bought something from them directly, you more than likely have used products manufactured by them.

In today's review, I look at the ECS Liva Z mini-PC based on the Intel Apollo Lake Celeron N3350 SOC. This palm-sized system is certainly unique. It can even be upgraded to some extent, which is, to be honest, somewhat unexpected. Did I mention it comes with Windows 10? Let's take a closer look at what this mighty mini has to offer.
