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 am completely in love with my mac mini, and I wouldn't trade it for anything else. The value you get out if it is unequaled, even for Apple products. I highly recommend using your.television as your monitor, as well as the wireless mouse and keyboard.

    I purchased and set up the Mac Mini for relatives who had a Vista machine. They are not tech savvy. I had little time for detailed hand-holding, but they did well. They got it quickly. The swap from Windows to Mac went much smoother than I expected.

    I am an Apple person, and considering that most all the other Mac comps are like $900+, this is a really nice and compact computer. As long as I can help it, I will not buy a PC ever again. Especially with a horrible OS like Windows 10.

    This was my first Mac purchase in conjunction with a Macbook Air. My family already owned 3 iPads, 2 iPhones, 3 Apple TVs and a Airport Extreme and we kive how seamless everything works together. I have a 5TB external hard drive hooked to my Mac Mini that I store everything on and I have an idential 5tb hard drive plugged in to my Airport Extreme that I use for time machine backups. The Mac Mini is plugged into the living room TV, however I access it through the "Screen Share" feature on my Macbook Air. We really enjoy being able to use the Macbook Air as an interface for the Mac Mini. I'm only upset I waited this long to go with a Mac!

    The Mac Mini is not given much credit for its place in the Mac lineup. I needed a system for light word processing, email and web surfing—nothing for gaming or heavy graphics projects. This Mac meets my needs.

    Was looking for an inexpensive Mac-based system to run XCode. It allows me to do that for a reasonable price.

    I have continually been an apple product advocate. The fact that best buy now offers these products at a competitive price is exactly why I purchased from the store. This was a refreshing bargin for my family at Christmas.

    Better than any WPC priced $999+

    Although Apple keeps closing the doors on user upgradability this unit sports features and technologies not seen on a WPC @ $999+. Sadly Microsoft morons just simply cannot find the answer to remedy this despite the fact Thunderbolt and other tech are available to anyone not just Apple.. This little puppy is driving a UHD 28" Monitor without breaking a sweat or mouse delay as most others do. Albeit the 4gb of ram is hardly enough in today's world and thus presents the biggest regret. Workaround is to close all unnecessary open apps. Best yet it uses less energy than a laptop. If you are on the budget this can easily be your first, last and the only computer you need. Mind you this comes from a person that does not particularly like Apple's autocracy.

    Great item for the price and small enough to be portable to a different room (if needed). I have a monitor, keyboard, and mouse in another room so I am able to relocate when I need a space with less noise. ;-)

    It is a Mac, so it works pretty well. A bit slower than I expected, but it does the job. Nothing that really makes me jump up and exclaim, "Holy cats!", but to be fair I would probably never do that anyway.

    The Mac Mini is great for anyone needing a basic computer for email and searching the Web. The small footprint is a bonus as it takes up very little space. It was easy to set up in a short amount of time.

    Perfect computer to my TV. I love how I can have photos movies everything at the fingertips on my TV and takes up a small amount of room and I can share with my brother movies from across the country.
