Core advantages

1. Save space: the host and monitor are integrated, and there is no traditional main chassis, and the desktop occupation is reduced by about 60%, which is suitable for small-sized houses or scenes that pursue cleanliness.
2. Simple cable: Only one power cord is needed (some support wireless mouse and keyboard/network), bid farewell to multi-line clutter, and the desktop is more refreshing.
3. Ready-to-use: no need to start the host computer after booting, which supports rapid wake-up (such as face recognition) and is more convenient to use at high frequency.
4. Low power consumption and mute: there is no independent host fan, the noise is less than ＜30dB, and the power consumption is 20%-30% lower than that of the traditional desktop, which is more environmentally friendly.
5. portability: some models support screen folding (such as AO2413), which is convenient for mobile office or business trip.

Main disadvantages

1. Limited performance expansion: The motherboard is highly integrated, so it is impossible to upgrade core hardware such as graphics card and CPU, and only supports limited expansion of memory/hard disk, which may lead to performance bottleneck after long-term use.
2. Heat dissipation and stability: the internal space is compact, and the heat dissipation may be insufficient when running under high load (such as large-scale games and video rendering), resulting in frequency reduction or jamming.
3. High maintenance cost: the structure is closed, so it is difficult for non-professionals to disassemble and maintain it by themselves, and the disassembly of some models may affect the warranty.

Applicable scenario

Recommended: users who work at home, take online classes, have light audio and video, and pursue minimalist desktop, especially suitable for renting houses or small space environments.

Not recommended: users who are engaged in professional design, large-scale games, multi-tasking or need to upgrade their hardware for a long time will prefer split architecture.
