Apple Mac mini Design With the 2020 M1 update, Apple did not change the design of the Mac mini, but it did re-introduce the silver color. All M1 Mac mini models are silver, while the Intel model comes in space gray, with color being the distinguishing feature between the two. The Mac mini has always been Apple's smallest, most portable desktop machine and that hasn't changed. The Mac mini continues to feature a small, square-shaped enclosure that measures in at 7.7 inches on each side and 1.4 inches thick. Apple's Mac mini weighs in at 2.9 pounds, so it's small enough to take from place to place if desired, plugging into available peripherals and displays. The Mac mini, unlike Apple's other Macs, does not ship with a display, keyboard, or mouse, so it is ideal for those who want to supply their own accessories. One side of the Mac mini features a host of ports, while the other features an LED that lets you know when it's on. There's an Apple logo at the top of the device, and other than the Apple logo and port labels, there are no other markings on the visible portion of the machine. Though the exterior of the Mac mini is unchanged over the last several generations, Apple redesigned the interior in 2018 to add a new thermal architecture to accommodate higher-powered 8th-generation chips and all-flash storage. Compared to pre-2018 Mac mini models, it features a bigger internal fan with twice as much airflow, and expanded vents, all of which also accommodate the M1 chip. Apple Mac mini Ports Apple has outfitted the Mac mini with multiple ports, allowing it to be used with several peripherals at once. The M1 Mac mini has a total of two Thunderbolt 3/USB-C 4 ports at the back of the device, which are able to support USB-C accessories and displays, along with an HDMI 2.0 port, a Gigabit Ethernet port, a 3.5mm headphone jack, two USB-A ports, and a spot for the power cord to plug in. The Intel Mac mini has four Thunderbolt 3 ports, two USB-A ports, a 3.5mm headphone jack, a spot for the power cord, and a Gigabit Ethernet port, which can be upgraded to 10Gb for $100. Thunderbolt 3 offers data transfer speeds of up to 40Gb/s. The M1 Mac mini officially supports one external display up to 6K along with a second with HDMI up to 4K. The Intel Mac mini with supports two 4K displays (along with a third 4K display over HDMI) or one 5K. While Apple says the Mac mini is limited to one 6K and one 4K display, with DisplayPort adapters, M1 Mac mini models can run up to six external displays. This only works with a mix of 4K and 1080p displays as the Thunderbolt ports do not have the bandwidth to run six 4K displays. Apple Mac mini Memory One of the features of the M1 is a unified memory architecture, or UMA, which unifies high-bandwidth, low-latency memory into a single pool. This means that the technologies in the M1 chip can access the same data without copying it between multiple memory pools for dramatic performance improvement across the entire system. The Mac mini supports up to 16GB of unified memory, with the base model shipping with 8GB. Apple Mac mini GPU The 8-core GPU in the M1 chip is integrated (which means it is not a separate chip), and Apple calls it the world's fastest integrated graphics in a personal computer. It can execute 25,000 threads at a time and combines improved graphics performance with lower power consumption. According to Apple, the GPU in the M1 can render a timeline up to 6x faster in Final Cut Pro and editing high-resolution photos with Affinity Photo is up to 4x faster. Apple Mac mini Speed Improvements The M1 in the Mac mini features an 8-core CPU and an integrated 8-core GPU. The CPU has four high-efficiency cores and four high-performance cores. When doing simple tasks like browsing the web or reading email the Mac mini will engage the high-efficiency cores, but for more system-intensive tasks like photo and video editing, the high-performance cores are used. According to Apple, the M1 chip's CPU is up to 3x faster than the Intel chip in the prior Mac mini, and GPU speeds are up to 6x faster. The M1 is designed to offer higher performance at every power level compared to competing laptop chips. It offers 2x faster CPU performance than the latest PC laptop chip while using 25 percent of the power. ProRes transcoding is up to 3.4x faster with the M1 chip, building a project in Xcode is up to 3x faster, and Logic Pro supports 2.8x more Amp Designer plug-ins. Apple Mac mini RAM Base M1 models come with 8GB RAM, which can be customized up to 16GB. Higher-end Intel models support up to 64GB RAM. Tests suggest that there isn't a whole lot of difference between M1 models with 8GB RAM and 16GB RAM except when doing heavily system intensive tasks. Neural Engine There's a new, more advanced Neural Engine in the Mac mini that is up to 15x faster for machine learning tasks. The Neural Engine has a 16-core design that can execute 11 trillion operations per second, and along with machine learning accelerators, it makes ML-based tasks much faster. Apps like Final Cut Pro, Pixelmator, and others that use machine learning for video, photo, and audio editing purposes benefit from the Neural Engine. Apple Mac mini SSD The Mac mini supports up to 2TB of solid state storage, with read speeds of up to 3.4GB/s. Technicians in China have discovered that the RAM and SSD in the M1 Mac can be upgraded after purchase, but this is something that's only been done in a test setting and these upgrades are not something the average person can undertake. Apple Mac mini Connectivity The M1 Mac mini supports 802.11ax WiFi, or WiFi 6, which provides better performance than the prior-generation 802.11ac Wi-Fi. It offers 1.2Gb/s of throughput for fast file transfers. The Intel Mac mini supports 802.11ac Wi-Fi, while both models feature Bluetooth 5.0. Apple Mac mini Base Models There are three stock Mac mini configurations available from Apple. Two feature the M1 chip, while the most expensive has an Intel chip. $699 - M1 chip, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD. $899 - M1 chip, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD. $1,099 - 3.0GHz 6-core 8th-generation Intel core i5 chip, 8GB RAM, Intel UHD Graphics 630, 512GB SSD. The Mac mini features the same M2 and M2 Pro chips as devices like the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro, and serves as Apple's low-cost standalone desktop computer. Announced in January 2023, the Mac mini is among the newest Macs in Apple's lineup. Apple usually refreshes the Mac mini every few years and there are no rumors of a new model arriving anytime soon. As such, prospective buyers should not wait for a new model to be released. Mac Mini Shortcomings Some M1 Mac mini models are affected by an issue that can cause pink squares or pixels to appear on a display connected to an M1 Mac mini. Apple is aware of the problem and is working on a fix. For those experiencing this problem, Apple recommends putting the Mac mini to sleep, waiting two minutes and then waking the Mac mini, unplugging the display, and adjusting the display's resolution. Mac mini owners have run into an issue with the Mac mini failing to activate connected displays after waking from sleep. This issue does not affect all Mac mini owners, but there have been numerous complaints and there's no known permanent fix at this time.
