What are the best stick PCs?

Pros

Pro
Very light

The Asus Chromebit is very light at just 75 grams. This will avoid bending when plugged in through the HDMI port.

Pro
High build quality

The Asus Chromebit is made of a strong, durable plastic that feels and looks great. It also has rounded edges which help it blend perfectly behind a monitor.

Pro
Can easily stream 1080p video

Cons

Con
Heats very fast

The Chromebit is fanless, which is obvious considering the small form factor. Unfortunately it has serious issues with heat because even under light usage it heats at an alarming rate. Fortunately, it doesn't get hot enough to actually damage itself or the monitor it's attached to.

Con
Doesn't really handle multitasking well

Multitasking makes this stick PC lag a bit and having more than two or three browser tabs open will usually mean 2-3 seconds of wait time when switching tabs.
