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 bought this in order to literally run one program, for $300 couldnt beat it! It does its job, runs a little slow but for basic use this thing is perfect.

    I run a non profit organization. I need computer hardware I can rely on and that runs efficiently. Macys fill the bill. PCs do not. Really glad Best Buy offers these Apple products.

    We had an older version of the mac mini which was almost 6 years old and decided to get a new one. We opened it and never even plugged it in after realizing that it did not have a built in CD drive. Just another way for apple to get money out of you!

    No complaints on Apple mini. We already had one for personal use & decided to get one for the business after several other brands didn't hold up. Happy with Apple products as usual

    apple-mac-mini-intel-core-i5-1-4ghz-4gb-memory-500gb-hard-drive is much better than I was hoping. It takes up less room the a regular desktop model and does everything I need it to.

    I needed another computer at my house to control my audio and video sources. The Mini performs all of these tasks flawlessly and in a typically understated fashion.

    Bought this because my 2010 MacBook Pro finally gave out. I no longer needed a true portable cpu but in case I did this mini can do so, all I need is a screen.

    Great apple desktop computer for the price, however inability to upgrade RAM is a crime on a desktop machine. Good computer to mount behind TV to make them true smart tvs.

    Based on how my small business needs are required the Mac Mini proves to be a great performer for tasks that a PC can't and with the need to interface with multiple displays, the hdmi outputs are great for this reason that either supplements our MBP's in our fleet or saves us from damaging the laptop lids. They mount fantastic in vehicles for specialty tech jobs our customers have voiced a need for and depending on which model you've purchased can meet the Boot Camp criterias needed!

    Picked up unit using a price match deal and a few gift cards. Works as it should - not a "speed demon" - but wasn't expecting it to be.
