    Review Apple Mini Desktop

    Setup is quick, and can involve porting over key files and apps from another Mac if you’re already in the macOS ecosystem. The desktop looks great, you’ll be faced with the new look of macOS, Big Sur, which is one of the biggest switch-ups to the OS...But i like more speed from A1 chip.

    Absolutely awesome !! If your looking for a sleek, minimalist desktop, this is a major component. Just add your monitor, mouse and keyboard. M1 is fabulous!

    Replacing an 11 yr old Mac Mini. Old one still works but life had passed it by...slow and not enough memory. Simple to pick up and Apple makes migration easy.

    This Mac mini is lighting fast. I haven’t used it yet for editing but the general power and almost nonexistent sound are both phenomenal things about this device.

    I can’t believe how fast this computer is. Looking forward to learning the new capabilities using Big Sur OS. This mini is replacing a mid 2011 version. It’s great.

    Got it to play around with the new M1 SOC. It is worth getting if you like playing with new tech if not wait until the software side catches up to the hardware.

    Nice device. Works perfectly. I ended up returning it because I did not like the Apple experience. If you like Apple...this is perfect for you.
