    Love my Mac mini. I use my computer for pretty basic needs. Has the perfect amount of power, and has really been great addition to my setup. I typically take my iPad everywhere and It’s nice to have a home desktop that just automatically syncs everything to it.

    I've had this for a few years now and it has run smoothly. I use it to run my media server so it's always on and it hasn't uncountered any problems what so ever.

    This is the first Mac ive gotten in ages. Upgraded from my 2012 Mac mini and the performance of the M2 has not disappointed me. If you dont do anything super intensive then youll do just fine with the 8Gb of ram.

    This thing is amazing! This thing can handle pretty much all casual web browsing, some light coding and video editing. For less than $600, this is a beast of a desktop machine. Can’t recommend it enough

    I’ve used a MacBook Pro (2020 Intel) with a dock for a while but it can be really fidgety. I bought this so I wouldn't have to mess with cables anymore, as well as to have a way to have permanently connected external storage to be able to keep a full local copy of my 500gb iCloud photos library. It works great for that. Now I keep the laptop in another room to use and for travelling. Not having to fidget with plugging things in every time means i can just sit down and get to work. Because apple stuff syncs together nearly perfectly, it doesnt matter which device I’m on. All my stuff is right there. I don’t do anything that would push this to its limits so i cant speak to that. My MacBook would sound like a jet just browsing when connected to my 4k monitor. This machine has been essentially silent. I love it.

    Loving this and being able to convert my LG monitor into an “Apple” screen. It was a cheaper and better option than buying the Mac Pro desktop I originally wanted. I wanted the large screen without paying the large apple price, and I am happy I went this route.

    This mini is fast, love the M2 chip. I bought thinMac to replace a 2012 Mac Mini which had become a legacy model. I had to upgrade because my editing software needed the latest OS. It’s a great machine.

    It is incredibly fast and handles the task very smoothly but heavier workloads need quite a bit of higher ram the base variant works very well for daily usage and video editing.

    The Mac Mini is just a perfect little machine. I use it as my primary computer for personal use connected to a Dell 43" monitor that is also used for my business windows laptop. I use it for web browsing, texting, emails, light office work, music playback and streaming videos. It performs every one of those tasks perfectly. I also use iMovie to produce and edit my companies annual holiday party video and this thing never lags.

    This Mac mini is amazing , probably the cheapest and for me the best way to get the M2 chip from Apple . I am running mine on a Samsung screen and it runs perfectly, the Bluetooth connection to my keyboard and mouse is amazing and I’m using a drawing pad for notes as well . Overall very pleased and would recommend for anyone that doesn’t want to break their budget for an amazing Apple product . My set up cost me about $650 , with a 30” screen and everything I need , just not portable but I did not need a portable laptop, just the system which is as I said , amazing to work on with anything from studying to editing my photos/ videos
