It’s a great product, minor initial startup issues aside. All of the marketed features work (I.e. continuity cam via iPhone SE 2020 and Game Mode on Fullscreen), make sure to watch YouTube videos and experiment if all else fails. Currently using a Phillips 4K tv with their “Game Mode” (different from Mac’s Game mode) screen function to reduce lag/delay and it feels great.

This Mac mini is replacing a late 2015 iMac. Meaning the performance and speed is outstanding by comparison. I had a great display already so buying another iMac wasn't necessary. The set up is very easy and took no time at all once you enter your wifi password and Apple ID. I bought it online and picked it up from the Best Buy lockers. That process couldn't be easier. Overall I am happy with the Mac mini and buying it from Best Buy was more convenient and cheaper than buying it from Apple.

The Mac mini is amazing! It is very simple to setup and packs amazing speed and power within a small footprint. Just add a computer monitor and wireless keyboard and mouse and it meets all my computing needs.

I have been a PC guy for many years. I have also been in the Apple system of phones since they first came out, including iPads, so, I love Apple products.
When my old 2011 PC laptop finally died on me I decided, why not try an Apple desktop. I had a brand new 4k monitor for my iPad Pro already so decided on the Mac Mini. This Mac is incredibly fast and productive. It takes up very little space and was intuitively easy to convert to since I have had Apple mobile products for years. I went with the 8 ram and 512 gig SSD because it is a bit faster than the 256 SSD with one processing chip instead of the two on the higher capacity drive.
I very much like this Mac Mini and cannot see myself ever going back to PC.
If you’re anything like me, it’s a no brainier to convert to Mac, period.
My only complaint is to myself for not having bought this, or a Mac desktop, a long time ago.
I have finally arrived!

My family and I love the Mac Mini! Fast processing and a really simple to use. Not to mention, we love how space saving the device is. Our desk looks clean and simple. I would highly recommend getting this if you want to save some money and want to still have the Mac system.

I have been an Apple fan since they first came out. I have had just about every Apple product at one time or another, and have loved every one of them. This is my first mini and I'm really glad I made the switch. It's miles faster than my 2013 iMac, and with the added freedom using either my 43-inch or 65-inch TV as its monitor. I would recommend an external hard drive if you go with a lesser memory model, but other than that, it's everything and more I could want from my desktop.

As a web developer, even at 8GB, this M2 Mini functioned perfectly as a separate remote work PC, definitly an upgrade in speed when i compared it to my i9 Macbook Pro w/ 16GB of RAM. Would've loved just a few more Ports.

I run Logic Pro with plug-ins, and Final Cut Pro. Worked great on my old iMac with 32Gb of memory, a fusion drive, i7 processor. Since I couldn't update it past Catalina I decided to try out a Mac Mini. The M2 chip and 8Gb of memory so far is handling it just fine. I've only run 10 tracks in Logic so I can't speak to how many you can go before it would have an issue but so far so good. EZ Drummer and Xvox Pro working fine. Did a Multi-cam video in FCP without issue. So far, so good.

Love my new Mac mini Desktop. I was previously working off an old Mac from 2015 and have taken really great care of it that I didn't need a new monitor but my hard drive was struggling to keep up with the times. This was such a great solution allowing me to maintain my Mac screen but upgrade the the drive. Now my processing speed is so much faster and my productivity has increased as a result.
