    Bought this for my dad for Father's Day. It is just enough computer for he needs to for daily tasks. He was already an Apple user and had no issues navigating the interface. If you are a Windows or Android user, Apple can be a little confusing to navigate.

    This was an awesome buy! It’s a much cheaper option than the all in one Mac’s. It allows you to customize more and obviously the performance is great, it’s a Mac.

    If you want to get into the Mac ecosystem this is the cheapest option. I say cheapest but it doesn't mean the worst experience. This thing as the base model is a little monster. M2 chip 8gb of unified memory is the same specs you'll find on the M2 MacBook base model. Quick, snappy, and efficient for everyday tasks. It can surprising edit videos, and do more demanding tasks.

    So glad I bought this. I use it with a TV as a monitor through HDMI. That means I have a huge screen! Bought just before a stay at home vacation. Use it every day, no problems. Easy set up. Now my favorite computer.

    I was shopping for a new Mac. I read reviews for the Mac Mini and was impressed. Then when I saw Best Buy had the Mini at $100 off the normal price I couldn’t pass it up. So far the Mac Mini has performed great.

    The device is great and pairs well with my ipad pro 12.9 inch! All peripherals work well regardless if apple products or not. My only gripe would be the storage for the price. This is not uncommon for apple products but the lack of flexibility on upgrades at this price point is dissatisfying. Othwrwsie a great machine and have been very impressed with apples new chips!

    The computer is lightning fast and works well as an alternative to a lap top—i’m a mobile dj and i’ve been using a 12 year old macbook. This allows me an easier way to set up a larger monitor for myself and a karaoke station. Perfect for home studio

    I'm really impressed with the power of the base model. I can edit 4k videos with Premiere Pro and Final Cut Pro X with no issues. It also runs Ableton Live 12 super smooth.

    I love the Mac mini Desktop. The help I got at Best Buy was the best. I had mentioned I was running out of suitcase space. I had to move to Argentina and the large Mac would not fit in my suitcase. This is perfect and the speed is wonderful.

    I have purchased Mac mini a year ago. I have had no issues with this so far. Syncs seamlessly with other IOS products. The speed is enough for my basic needs such as browsing, Netflix, Youtube etc.

    Always a great value. This is our third one over 20 years and love this product. Just plug it in and it virtually sets up itself and shares with our IPad and IPhone.

    Works like a charm. I was recommended this by one of the Best Buy associates, who was excellent to work with (Spencer I believe was his name). Highly recommend the Mac mini and the service at Best Buy.

    This computer works well for exactly the reason I purchased it: music production. I would have preferred the 16GB 1TB version, but I didn't have that kind of money. I suspect that this machine will last a good 11 years.
