• Purchased for €10.63 final price and installed in a pre-built SFF Lenovo system that had no fans (!) apart from the CPU cooler (AMD A4 6210 APU), mounted on the side panel with tie wraps as an exhaust, and temperatures have dropped from 56-58 idle to 49 idle and from 68 under load to 62. At 100% fan speed, it is almost silent. The PC is close to the floor, so let's say about 1m away from my ears. Installation was trouble-free and nothing out of the ordinary time-wise. Maybe half an hour because I also cleaned the inside of the case with a thermal compound change. For the price/performance/noise ratio, it is highly recommended. If anything changes in the future, I will update the review.

  • Purchased for €9.44 final price and installed in a pre-built SFF Lenovo system that had no fans (!) apart from the CPU cooler (AMD A4 6210 APU), as an intake alongside its slightly larger sibling (92mm) as a side exhaust, and temperatures have dropped from 56-58 idle to 49 idle and from 68 under load to 62. Even at 100% speed, it is practically silent. The PC is near the floor, so let's say about 1m away from my ears. Installation was trouble-free and nothing out of the ordinary time-wise. Maybe half an hour because I also cleaned the inside of the case and changed the thermal paste. For the price/performance/noise ratio, it is highly recommended.

    Purchased in late January 2024 for €10 final price including shipping. It cools a Kingston NV2 1TB which is installed on a PCIe Card (installed like a sandwich with the drive in the middle) and is used solely for gaming with BeamNG.Drive & Hogwarts Legacy. With a room temperature of 20.5 degrees Celsius (winter), the drive sits at 26 degrees Celsius when idle and reaches 38 degrees Celsius after a 3-hour gaming session with the aforementioned games. The build quality is at the high standards that we are accustomed to from Be Quiet, and I definitely recommend the MC1 to anyone looking for a value-for-money NVMe cooling solution. The most demanding users might want to take a look at the MC1 Pro, which has a copper pipe inside the heatsink or something with active cooling afterwards. I will choose it again in the future unless something changes, in which case I will mention it here.

    Purchased at the end of January 2024 for €6 including shipping. Installed on an Aorus B450 Pro (rev 1.0) with BIOS F61a. It houses a Kingston NV2 1TB that is cooled by the Be Quiet MC1. The installation was very easy. The drive accommodates games with long loading times (BeamNG.Drive & Hogwarts Legacy). The card has a red light that indicates it is functioning (permanently on) and that the disk is in use (flashing). It is very powerful at first and if you are not in a very bright room, it distracts your attention when working or playing. Since the initial installation, I have not encountered any problems (~3 months now) despite daily extended use. I am considering buying another one for the last available slot on the motherboard if I need extra space in the future. It goes without saying that based on price, build quality, ease of installation, etc., it is highly recommended with 1000. I will update the review if anything changes in the future

    I bought 2 on 16/02/24 for €14.58 final price with shipping, with the purpose of putting them on the arms of my gaming chair (Anda seat bat black), after a nerve injury in both arms at the elbow height from prolonged daily computer use (work from home scenario). The difference is indeed huge, as after so many hours of standing up, there is not even a feeling of fatigue in this area. They are highly recommended for this use. As for the use they are intended for, as sleep pillows, I have no opinion as I have not used them that way.

    Bought the 2TB version in March '23. Absolutely satisfied with the Read-Write performance, but it tends to heat up for my data. Specifically, after running chkdsk (note that it is the disk that hosts my game library and is almost full), it reached 47 degrees Celsius, a temperature it maintained for quite some time until the chkdsk was completed

    I bought it 3 months ago and it's something I would start my day with. For 3 months, I shave every day, sometimes even more than once a day, and it still has a quantity inside. I use it with the Gillette Sensor 3 and it provides an incredible shaving sensation without any irritation afterwards, which is a deal-breaker for me due to the frequency. I don't know how long a shaving foam would last me, so I don't have a point of comparison. I highly recommend it.

  • I bought it for the army because I have sensitive skin and I easily get cut with disposable razors. First of all, I have to say that before my military service, I used to shave three times a year, so I don't have an opinion on a close shave from other razors with more or fewer blades, flexible heads, etc. With daily shaving, each head lasts for a month. Okay, although I would like a little more. The difference between the first shave with the new head and the last one with the old one is huge. As long as the head is new, with one pass in 5 minutes, I'm ready and it leaves a very nice feeling afterwards. Towards the end, it requires 2 or 3 passes. As for whether it is easy to clean or not: I would say it's something in between, as it doesn't clean with water alone (hot or cold) but it also needs help to remove the hair with a toothpick. I will definitely choose them again and I recommend them in general!

  • It does what it promises, but the LED on the angled adapter doesn't work for me. Nevertheless, my phone (Xiaomi Poco F1) charges normally from a power bank that supports QC 3.0 with this cable, just like it does with the wall charger. (For example, 22%-90% in 50 minutes). Personally, I find the 2-meter cable excessive, maybe I should have gone for the 1-meter one.
