The mini-PC comes with a WiFi antenna, 65W power adapter, VESA mount, USB flash drive with OS drivers, warranty card, user manual and quick install guide. There is no operating system pre-installed because it is a barebone system, which means that you will have to buy the RAM and storage separately and then install your own preferred operating system. The company only mentions Windows 10 as supported, so Linux will need to be tested first.
The company also has a model that is based on a quad-core Intel Core i7-10510U processor called ZBOX CI662 Nano, but it is not yet available on Amazon. More information can be found on the ZBOX C-series product page.
