Great bang for my buck. With the added storage and m4 chip this the most powerful economic machine money can buy.

This is the best deal in technology at the moment! Tons of compute power that should last for years...

made the switch from Windows, so far enjoying the switch. I added a docking station for usb ports

I'm horrible with names but I received help from a female manager. She was extremrly upbeat, knowledgeable, efficient even amongst the mist of the total chaos that comes with Black Friday deals! We left with a Mac mini, keyboard, monitor, and a 75 inch TV. Thank you for making it a great experience.

Very Apple product ever made. Buy it nothing to lose

The mac mini desktop is perfect as a headless computer to do work.

Excellent product, good price (matched Amazon’s price) and in stock. I like to shop where I can touch and feel a variety of products and still pay a competitive price. That’s why Best Buy is still there when most electronics and camera stores are gone.

I've had this for about almost a year now and I can confirm that the base model is the best value product from Apple. The only issue is the cost to go up to 512gb of storage (which you will need if you do anything other than web browsing) is 1/3rd the cost of the base model. But other than that, it's great.

Fast. Small. Powerful. I have a 2018 mini that is awesome. Needed more storage so gave that to my son and picked up a new mini. Love the new one. Drives all my connections and monitors well. Great Zoom, FaceTime and Teams connections.

Huge upgrade in space from my first mini bought 3 years ago

I like this stuff more than what I have experienced

My new Mac mini is super fast and does everything I need it to do. Have to get use to the power button being on the button. Would advise everyone to get a USB to type C adapter because there are no USB ports and there are 2 Type C ports in the front of the computer. Other than that the computer is great. P.S. The speaker port is in the front also

Ideal for home office use. I have three Mac Minis in my office.

I absolutely love my mac mini. It’s so powerful for being a base model m4

Loved him but couldn’t/can’t afford, so I returned

I love it. It has so many great features.I keep learning about all the things I can do. I highly recommend

The help I received was crucial….. I am using this with a large screen hdtv and it is a perfect combination.

DO NOT BUY the new M4 16GB Memory - 256GB SSD unless you only intend to watch videos and check emails. This DOES NOT have memory to do any photo or video editing. Only work around is move non-Apple apps to SSD and launch from there. Spend the extra and get the 32GB.

So far this is one of the best and most affordable MAC I ever have. Small but high efficiency. I use with my 3D printer.

I upgraded from an Intel Mac Mini, and the M4 Mac mini is like night and day: many times faster, plus a tiny footprint compared to the old “silver” Intel model. Apple gave the machine a design overhaul from its M2 with the 2024 refresh. The M4 mini measures just 5 inches by 5 inches — more than 40% smaller than my prior-generation Intel model. It takes up much less space on my desk, and has impressive performance in that super compact package. With Apple Intelligence and the M4 chip, Apple stopped using 8GB as the base amount of memory that Macs ship with, and upped it to 16GB. The base M4 Mac mini has 16GB of RAM as a result, making it super fast and a great deal for a desktop machine. It runs the new IOS 26 with plenty of memory to spare for applications. You do have to supply your own display, keyboard, and mouse, but it's so small that I can easily move it between desktop setups at home and work. Because it doesn’t have any ordinary old style USB ports, I had to pick up a cheap USB-C to USB-A hub for 15 bucks, so I could attach my existing keyboard and mouse. There is an option to upgrade to the faster M4 Pro for those who need more power, but as a software engineer with fairly intense computing needs, the base model gives me everything I need. It has three Thunderbolt 4 ports, where the M4 Pro sports Thunderbolt 5 ports with faster transfer speeds, but that’s frankly only useful for intense video editing. The base M4 model does routine video editing without breathing hard. There are also two USB-C ports with 10Gb/s transfer speeds at the front. Compared to my prior-generation Intel Mac mini, the M4 models are 5 times faster in terms of CPU speed. If you're looking for a desktop Mac, the base Mac mini is the best deal that you're going to get. The performance is more than enough for day to day tasks and even gaming, photo editing, and routine video editing, and that price tag really can't be beat.
