Customer Ratings & Reviews

Not against the product; Poor shipping by BestBuy. Thrifty. $800 item sent in a bubble envelope. The box took all the beating during shipping. $2 toothbrush comes in a better packaging from target and elsewhere. Extremely disappointed from BestBuy. It’s not just about making customer click on submit button. It should go beyond it.

Excellent service, very efficient The sales person was very focused, polite and have a lot of knowledge about his job

Mini is more versatile. Can get better monitor and sound system.

I recently picked up the Mac mini, and I have to say—I’m seriously impressed. The size is deceiving because this little machine is a powerhouse. Performance is buttery smooth, whether I’m multitasking with multiple apps, managing projects, or just streaming and browsing. One thing I love is how clean my setup looks now. The Mac mini takes up almost no space on my desk, runs whisper-quiet, and doesn’t get hot even after hours of use. Pairing it with my own monitor and keyboard gave me flexibility without losing that seamless Apple ecosystem feel. The speed is what really blew me away. Apps open instantly, everything feels snappy, and even heavier tasks don’t slow it down. For such a compact device, it easily keeps up with what I throw at it. If you want desktop-level performance without a giant tower, the Mac mini is perfect. Small footprint, big power.

Mac mini M4 has tiny size and mordern design. Powerful capability to run heavy tasks. Runs professional programs fast and smoothly such as Matlab and R. Runs games smoothly including League of Legends, World of Warcraft, Starcraft 2 and etc. Its price is too cheap comparing to its availabilty. However, also reminds you its price. Do not expect run those exterme task in highest level option and setting. It just runs well in medium settings not super high quality setting. Even though it is super powerful for every tasks for 99% of people including professionals.

I bought it in excellent condition and it said that all the parts would be included but nothing was included except the computer, no wires

Works great. Boots up fast. Small foot printuses much less desktop space. Powerful.

I’ve been thinking about buying the Mac mini for quite some time and one day I saw that Best Buy had it on sale. I went to the store and was fortunate enough to be waited on by a young man name Rylan, who answered all my questions. I have especially wanted to know if I should buy the 256 GB or the 512 and finally decided that the 512 was for me because I wouldn’t have to worry about storage so much. Rylan helped me with my application for a Best Buy card. And I was able to walk out of the store carrying this powerful computer in my hand. I’m so glad I made the purchase. It was easy to set up and fun to use. My old PC is history and I’m now able to do more things on the computer because it’s so intuitive. I recommend the Mac mini for performance and it looks so nice for my desk

Excellent space saving Mac! It does not get noisy or run hot. It is probably overpowered for the basic things I use it for, but it works great as expected. Another great and actually affordable Apple product.

Bought this computer to replace a windows computer that got bloated and slow after only 5 years. Was skeptical due to the size of the mini. Once it was up and running any skepticism was gone. This is one mighty computer. Has plenty of ports and can be tucked away on the corner of my desk. The only thing I do not like about this is the power button in located on the bottom of the computer. Not sure why Apple chose to do that but it is just an inconvenience not a dealbreaker. HIGHLY recommend.

I bought this because I'm a developer and was looking for something fast and powerful. It delivers. No problem running Xcode. That's really all that I use it for, though. I have a MacBook pro m2 that I use for travel and as my main personal laptop. My only gripe is the power button being on the bottom, but other than that, it's a really powerful machine that does all that I need it to do. Easy set up, seamless flow.

M4 Mini for home studio music production is amazing. Upgraded from older MacBook Air and using Garage Band (which itself is surprisingly powerful) on which I had about 50 songs largely produced, to M4 to go to Logic. Was able immediately to transfer all my tunes to the new platform, seamlessly! Logic has more powerful tools and better workflow. The Mini is tiny, actually hides behind my monitor stand. Silent, runs cool. Very fast. Backups to a 2 TB external drive take seconds or minutes (not hours as on my MacBook Air).

It works flawlessly so far. No problems encountered. It’s fast, quiet, and handles multitasking with ease. Apple Intelligence integration is smooth. Ideal for both work and creative tasks. Sleek design and solid performance make it a worthwhile investment.

This Mac Mini was the Best Buy (pun intended). I’m glad I purchased this machine. The WiFi is fast, and is pretty powerful for my applications. I would Highly recommend this option. My last Mac was the all in one so I chose the Mac mini so I could Choose my own monitor and I am NOT disappointed and you will not be either.

Apple has finally realized there are a lot of us that want Mac's but don't want to pay unreasonable prices. The cost, power and size of this Macintosh makes it a great value. If you need more RAM, that's when it gets less reasonable in my opinion. Best Buy's trade in allowance on my Minnie M2 was the deal maker for me to get this. I don't care about the power button position as it's always on for me. Reboots are done via software. It's very powerful, the additional ports are enough for me, I connect mine with Ethernet, so that's a huge plus. Just an awesome Macintosh! Personally I put my Mac on the network and remote into it from my Windows laptop. Having both O/Ss available to me has been a great help in my IT course designing and teaching. Since it was at a reasonable price I could do it.

This is my first 'real' exposure to the world of Apple. Lifelong Windows/Android user. I have to say it's a lovely device. It's fast and performs extremely well. I've had to give search engines a good workout to accomplish some tasks, but that's only natural I suppose when you're learning something new like this. Everything I've wished to accomplish, I've been able to, sooner or later. I love the form factor and how much power is built into so small a package. I'll often switch this on instead of my Windows machine when I'm doing something more casual so I can learn how to use it, and because it is pleasant in performance - an enjoyable diversion at this point. We'll see where it leads :)

1. Performance / Efficiency The M4 gives a very strong CPU/GPU especially for everyday tasks, creative work (photo & video editing), setc. Ok 2. Compact / Quiet Design It fits well on small desks, is easy to move, and doesn’t dominate with noise.

This is the best computer I have owned. I use it to run my business and its ease of use s awesome. Plus love the space saving design. It’s fast and perfect for a small business or entertainment
