Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the Mac mini's ease of use, compact size, and overall performance as significant advantages. The price point and compatibility with other Apple devices are also appreciated. However, some customers express concerns about the limited and non-upgradeable RAM, as well as the hard drive's capacity and speed.

    I love the Mac mini, and bought this for my in-laws. It was on sale, so a great deal. I took away a star because this particular model has the ram/hdd soldered to the motherboard. It can't easily be upgraded later.

    Out of the box, this thing is painfully slow. $500 can buy you a lot more PC, but I needed a Mac for testing, and this was as cheap as it gets. The 5400RPM drive it comes with is an absolute pig (the upgraded model has a standard HD as well, I believe). So, I picked up a 500GB SSD, replaced it, and it is much more responsive (do your homework first - you need special tools). If you must have an Apple, and don't want to pay a huge premium, this is the device for you. If you're looking for a decent PC out of the box, but don't want to pay a fortune, maybe the best bet would be to stay away from Apple. Sorry fans!

    Get a full on Apple Computer in the form of the Mac Mini and pair it with a 27" LED Monitor for a total price of under $800. Can't beat the bargain & the performance- where these two intersect you will find the value.

    The mini has a lot of functionality for the price

    I migrated to Apple recently. Apple takes a number of precautions to insure privacy. The system tells me what it does to insure privacy and offers me a choice for how to avail myself of its privacy protection features. Malware Bytes security software appears to be working well so far. You can download it for free. In addition, the technical support provided by AppleCare is excellent. I recommend buying the 3 year service plan. It's a two year extension on the one year warranty that comes with the purchase. The technical support representatives are knowledgeable in explaining how the system works. They are congenial as well. Finally, the system is affordable. I purchased my mini through a sales promotion offered by Best Buy.

    Kind of wish had cd drive, but I have a usb cd drive that I can hook up to install software. Speed and performance are not the highest but price is not high end, and rock solid OS, so don't have to deal with Windows 10.

    This Mac mini is for the economy minded. Not too powerful but not too expensive. I would recommend the next model up for anyone focused on speed but this one for those wanting the least expensive Mac money can buy.

    We needed another work computer since there was a new hire. I had some 27 inch monitors that I attached to this and it's good to go. It does everything we need for office work and even play.

    My 1st MAC

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I am a first time MAC user, so I didn't want to spend a lot of money to try it out. A lot of reviews said it was fast and error free. NOT for me! I loaded everything I wanted from the Apple Store which was not much, iTunes, word processor, and google. This is slower than any pc I have ever had. Load times for any program are ridiculously slow. I should have forked out the extra money to get the step above but to my chagrin I didn't. I wouldn't recommend this to my enemy.

    Replaced an old iMac with this sharp little unit. Hardly takes up desk space, looks cool, and has the normal Apple quality and reliability. Hookup up a Bose bluetooth speaker for great audio when watching videos.

    Wonderful as always. This is my second one. The first one purchased in 2005 still works but it has gotten pretty slow. With the HDMI output you can hook this MAC up to any newer TV.
