I am a major Apple fan and the Mac Mini with M 1 processor works great. The small footprint is ideal for saving space on your desk. Excellent product design and functionality.

I use this to edit and create videos with Adobe products. Works amazingly well. I actually upgraded to one with 16 gigs RAM but both inits far surpass my intel proc machines.

4K Video Editing A Breeze with only 8 gb memory

The new Apple M1 chip is amazing. I was looking for a new Apple that could handle editing 4K video and my timing couldn’t have been better. Apple has gone leaps and bounds ahead of Intel with their new chip so the most basic new macs with the new chip outperform the highest end pro models that have intel. I’m super happy!

AAPL M1 Obliterated My Expectations

Pros: For such a small machine, this this computer exceeds expectations. For the most part, every aspect of this machine is way more responsive and stable and is a very good machine for the average user (especially when you consider the price. Apple did a good job with the M1 chip, as this thing absolutely screams past most Intel processors. Wasn't expecting to play some fairly graphics intensive games on it, but depending on what you play you could be surprised.
Cons: There have been a few glitches with very specific (and non-popular) software programs running on the built in Rosetta 2 Emulator. This should be ironed out over time as developers optimize their programs for Apple Silicon (especially as Intel processors are replaced entirely on the entire Mac lineup). The M1 chip is limited to only running two screens at a time (I'm going to miss my third screen), but for most users this isn't even a problem.

If you are looking for an Apple desktop at a reasonable price, look no further.
Fast web browsing, Netflix, Youtube.
Extremely fast wifi speeds - connects fast as my hard wired computer does.
8g of memory works fine for what I do with this.
It is a pleasure to use my computer again.

I bought this to upgrade my 2012 Mac Mini which has been my main recording computer for years , and it’s been solid as a rock all these years. So the new Mac Mini is so fast and dose an incredible job . I am a songwriter/ Musician and use Cubase 11 and many different plugins and I would say that about 98% of them work even though some of the Companies say they don’t support big sir. I couldn’t be happier with the New Mac mini , incredibly fast I got the larger hard drive and then an external sad hard drive as well. I’m so happy. Love it

I actually sold my old intel based Mac Mini with 64GB Ram and replaced it with this version with only 8GB ram. It's not my main computer but when I'm using it it's lightning fast! it also starts up easier than my old one; the intel version seemed like it had to boot up even when it was only sleep. This one snaps right on. It can also handle all of the programs that I use on it. The best part is that it's quiet; the fans on the last one would rev up even when I was doing something simple. Super easy recommendation!

While I already have a MacBook Pro, I was really curious as to the performance of the M1 chip. I also wanted a desktop computer. Call me crazy but I actually miss having a desktop over a laptop. There is no denying that the computer is faster than the Intel based Mac I have. You can tell a little bit of a difference in the performance of applications that utilize Rosetta 2 but not enough of a difference to complain about. If you're curious about the M1 chip and need a desktop, this is probably a no brainer.

Great value - no need to wait for M2. Make sure you get cable adapter if you have the original Thunderbolt Monitor in your old mini. The Monitor has extra USB ports so limited number of USB ports is not a problem, Suggest a inexpensive external SSD to increase storage size rather than getting the largest configuration. I moved from a 1TB mini to the 512MB with 2TB external SSD.
