Customers are saying

Customers are pleased with the Mac mini's performance, ease of use, price, and compact size. The design and M2 chip are also well-received, along with its simple setup and power. However, some customers feel the RAM and storage are insufficient, and there could be more ports.

    So far it's a lot faster than my iMac from 2017. I owned one from 2011 and never had any issues from it. The only thing is I wish Mac would let you upgrade HDD and Ram when needed

    Easy to set up. Fast and does everything it needs to do to daily tasks and school work. Only issue I had is I had a asus lcd screen plugged in to hdmi and could not get a signal from the mini. Switched monitors to a more recent spec monitor and it was able to get a signal. Not sure if it’s just user error or mini didn’t like my old lcd monitor (2010). Also get the mount so you can mount it behind your monitor via vesa mount. Stays hidden with wires and super clean set up. Wish there was more usb then thunder bolts because my wireless keyboard and mouse dongle take up the only two then you would have to by a thunderbolt adapter to add more.

    I absolutely love it! I told myself I would put my gaming laptop away and use this for everything. So far, i have done everything in this computer without flaw. I haven’t done anything crazy to “overpower” it, but it has handled several applications and tabs being open without fail. I’m an Apple product user mostly so this feel right within the atmosphere of the items i was using already. Not one regret or negative thought on it sounds far! Will probably upgrade in the future!

    Mac Mini work great for Web surfing as well as other task, except 8 Gigs of Memory was max out on my use as well as running low on 256 GB SSD Drive Just to small for programs I would get 16 GB Memory and 512 MG SSD minimum because every OS update as well as Data will fill up your drive up quickly

    Very worth the investment. The price at Best Buy was higher than Amazon, but I needed it sooner rather than later—so Best Buy Price matched! Great price, great computer.

    This wannabe machine has never lived up to expectation since the day I bought it. Now, barely 18 months later, I am forced to upgrade. Not enough memory, not enough hard drive space. I have routinely been crippled without room for new files or data, and have had to call Apple Support to Scrutinize my hard drive with a fine tooth comb and determine what to delete. I have had to buy an external hub to try and connect even the most routine peripherals (a2 monitor, two external SSDs, to compensate for its lack of disk space), and it still has not function to expectations. This pathetic excuse for a computer should never have been released onto the market. Not nearly ready for prime time.

    M1 is still relevant in 2024 for the regular office work. 8gb of RAM is still a limitation, but it is still plenty fast for the daily use. Downsides: LCD died randomly after 4 month pf non-heavy use

    Easy ordering and pickup at the store. Ordered online and picked it up the next day. Setup was easy enough and the device is fast compared to my PC. I did pick up 3rd party wireless keyboard and mouse just to keep the cost down and they are working well. I am still learning Apple products so a big of a learning curve but there is so much online help that I am picking it up quickly after being a PC user for 45 years.

    Mac Mini is an excellent choice when upgrading from old macs. I just ordered my 5th Mac mini to put in my graphics department for my screen printing and digital transfer business. Mac mini lets you choose your own monitor, keyboard, and mouse. Excellent speed.

    Great value for the price. I do simple video edits using Davinci Resolve and it handles most of the layers and effects like a champ. That being said, it may lag a little when adding external animation effects on top of all of the editing you've already done. Overall though, as a computer, its solid.

    Needed a second Mac at home. Rather than iMac, we went with Mac mini with a wide 5k screen. Since we waited for the 2024 model, the mini came standard with the new M4 chip and 16GB RAM for the same price as the 2023 model. Setup from the old computer was easy and quick.
