    Typically "Apple" quality and a surprising value from a company you can count on.

    I have hated the Mac Mini's change from an upgradable hard drive. Often, the size was small, and they would offer poor specs. Upping the hard drive size was great and the M1 has it running fast. I was amazed with the speed and use of it. It's a great computer for a Mac Desktop. At this price for an Apple Product, I can say it is fair.

    It is the First Computer that has not been thrown across the room...probably because it is not Windows Based!...It is an Awesome Piece of Equipment, even though I don’t know how to use it really...but I’m willing to learn using this Machine...apparently the new Chip developed by Apple is Significantly Faster...I do recommend using a LAN vs. WiFi...and hook it up to your Big Screen, it’s pretty cool!

    Working great so far! I got the base model and I've been using it to edit videos with final cut pro and I was amazed how fast the m1 chip is!! I did lose the bluetooth connection once with my apple keyboard and had to re-pair it but so far I haven't exprience the constant dropping bluetooth connection.... yet... like what other users have reported online. So I'm hoping mine wouldn't do that. But so far its good!

    Very fast and small, Replaced my Windows laptop with this and extremely pleased. It was a breeze to set up and move over data, settings, favorites, etc. I recommend purchasing a 2 TB SSD for backup and auxiliary storage (about $50). I have an iPad for mobile computing/internet and with iCloud everything I need is available on all my devices. Good Bye Microsoft, I never loved you!!

    It's a refurbished model that my store had in stock, and still with apple care til 02/2023. so far so good, able to do all I wanted to & more. I don't do 4K videos all the time, but, it goes thru them like butter. Storage is not an issue due to the fact that I run all my apps from an external SSD w/o ANY issues. I highly reccommed it.

    I went from a 2011 hp laptop that I've used as a desktop for years. I'd say it's a good upgrade. from fully powered off, until I'm on the desktop and able to open upp apps, takes 4 seconds. very responsive and fluid os. this is a very capable machine. although the app store is lacking due to non compatibility with the m1 chip. alot of apps won't work, yet alone show up in the store

    Bought this for my mom to replace her old one. Mac Minis are great little machines. Her old one was starting to really slow down and upon trying to reinitialize the system found that it wouldn't take. Most likely a hardware issue. Had this happen before. This one is so much better and faster. Works great.
