So far it hasnt failed. Replaced my wifes 10 year old macbook with this, now is primarily her computer but the family computer as well. As long as this lasts 10+ years, purchase will be worth it. So far so good.

The new mini is a beast! It will crush some pretty demanding workloads and has saved me a bunch of time already. I will say that I do wish Best Buy had more variations available; I would have liked to purchase the 14-core version with more RAM. I wanted to use the Best Buy card for 0% interest, but next time I’ll probably just buy direct from Apple.

I’ve started using AI and my new M4 is kicking butt of everything I need to do. Highly recommend Apple‘s new Mac mini M4 especially the pro.

Meh. Inconvenience at its finest from Apple.

This is a great machine as far as power, speed, memory, etc. go. However, there are many issues and inconveniences. First. Mac desktops are just inconvenient in general. Using dual monitors is a pain. You can’t go full screen without changing settings and jumping through hoops. The desktop interface is so annoying unless you buy their awful keyboard (the least ergonomic keyboard on the market) and their awful mousepad (same). Moreover, the screen randomly twitches and tweaks out. Boxes appear. The sleep function is HORRIBLE. It has trouble going to sleep; trouble waking up; wakes up instantly upon the slightest movement or noise at times; won’t sleep with ANY program remotely related to video running; etc.
It’s fast. It can handle a lot of work at once. But it is a pain in the you know what. I love my MacBook. Wish I got a PC for my desktop, though. Overpriced nonsense.

Amazing power in such a small package! Barely bigger than an Apple TV while being a fully functional desktop computer with excellent specs. Bought instead of a MacBook Pro with the same specs and saved a ton because I always use mine in the living room and I can just leave this connected to the TV and use it when I need.

So far I have had not one issue with this Mac Mini and is exactly what I wanted... I video edit and picture edit and this is perfect. I use Davinci Resolve 19 and this is no lag on this machine yet I don't do really intensive effects yet but what I have done so far this little desktop tears though it... sometimes I press render and before I look up it 75% done...

Amazing little box! Fast reliable little powerhouse. Purchased for recording music, and voice overs. Doesn't come with magic mouse or keyboard so invest in those first if you don't have a reliable IOS keyboard and mouse.

Incredible! Apple products are so great. The way their computers integrate with your other Apple products is unmatched. Using a Mac helps avoid all the stupid issues you get with a PC. No viruses, no frozen screens or spam. Its awesome.

As a creator working with 4k video, photo editing, photoshop and illustrator it does not get better than this. it handles everything with a breeze all the same time. Even the Base pro model is more than enough for most creatives. Best value per dollar in computing power.

Bought it as upgrade of m1 Mac mini

I used m1 Mac mini and definitely feel the specs of m4 pro drastically improves the performance and
Usability.
For the users considering to buy this, need to compare the cost of this device,keyboard and monitor vs buying entry level MacBook Air m3
In short,I feel the m4 pro is overpriced and for most users m4 would suffice the need
I am giving 4 stars only from pricing standpoint.
Remember, if you are buying this device, you need to invest in monitor, keyboard and mouse

Super quality and high performance for a tiny little box - what else would you expect from Apple. Got a savings since it was a refurbished item that still came in its original packaging.
