    I am a committed Apple device user. I thought this might help reduce clutter on my desk. Whether it has or not is still an open question. However, before you buy this, realize you will need a keyboard and a way to connect your phone or other device because there is no microphone on this computer. And the speaker is not great. If you have a monitor on your desk and you want to participate in a Teams or Zoom meeting, you will have to buy a stand to hold your phone, and if you want to have it directly in front of you, your view of anything on the screen will be blocked. The general performance of the computer is pretty much as I expected. That being said there have been several unusual glitches which made me shut it down manually and restart it. Also, Microsoft Teams meetings are a challenge because it will randomly disconnect me. I never had these problems previously with my MacBook Air.

I've been using my cell for years now and decided I want a desktop that was compact so I picked this up on sale. unfortunately it has spots wifi issues so it went back on top of that it was sold as excellent contain and it was not it had zero original packaging with is part of that condition and return was a hassle as some serial numbers did not match so I had to make a couple of calls and another attempt in store to resolve the issue.

    Frustrating Purchasing Decision

    I am simply not happy about the fact that I would be forced to upgrade to the 512GB model in order to have good internal SSD performance. It is crazy when the 2 year old M1 256GB model mops the floor with the newer M2 256GB model. Additionally, they are also forcing us to spend nearly $1,500 to get a HDMI 2.1 port. Seriously?? This is getting ridiculous and they know exactly what they are doing.

    Unit was decent but truly did not have the speed or rendering power of the M1 Pro chip in my opinion. Good for fast lightweight tasks.
