  • Very quiet, Socketed RAM, T2 chip shows that Apple can be clever and innovative when it wants to be, Cheapest new machine that's able to run macOS
  • Small size leaves no option other than mid-range CPUs and integrated graphics, RAM excepted, any kind of upgrade is going to leave you with a plethora of Thunderbolt 3 enclosures
  • A desktop system without desktop-class performanceAs much as the internals of the Mac mini are greatly improved, the exterior is almost unaltered. The size and form factor have stayed the same, and that's a decision that has consequences. The processors a...

  • Compact design, Versatile port selection including USB Type-A and HDMI, Fast CPU performance, Least expensive Mac in Apple's lineup
  • Limited graphics performance (and no meaningful way to improve it), Upgrade options get expensive fast, RAM isn't technically user upgradeable
  • Apple's own marketing materials refer to the new mini as "part racehorse, all workhorse," and though they didn't go as far as branding this the "Mac Mini Pro" Apple is clearly positioning it as a high-performance computer. This makes the lack of a reasona...

  • Abstract:  Reviews of the new MacBook Air may have been somewhat lacking in enthusiasm, but those for the 2018 Mac mini have been almost universally positive. The typical Mac mini review can be summarised as saying that the market for the device has moved on, and Ap...

  • Abstract:  To say Apple's (AAPL) Mac mini has been neglected over the years is an understatement. The last time the company updated its pint-sized desktop computer was back in 2014. In the years since it became so painfully underpowered compared to more modern deskt...

  • Deep connectivity for its size, including four Thunderbolt 3 ports, Memory is SO-DIMM, not soldered, Configurable up to six cores/12 threads, New storage (2TB) and RAM (64GB) ceilings, Top-notch pre-installed software,
  • RAM not technically a user upgrade, No option for a 2.5-inch hard drive as internal mass storage, Scanty SSD on base model
  • Apple's iconic Mac mini compact desktop delivers more core-processing, storage, and memory potential than ever, in a polished box brimming with cutting-edge connectivity...

  • Good bang for the buck, Similar design as previous Mac mini, Speed is competitive with the 2017 iMac
  • Expecting a new, radical design change? You didn't get it, Its two USBA ports may not be enough, You'll probably need a USBC or HDMI video adapter
  • There are customers who lament the fact that Apple no longer offers a Mac for under $500, and that Apple went from offering three desktop Macs for under $1,000 to just one. But this is the new reality: $799 is the new entry point, and it's not going t...

  • Same compact dimensions with a space-gray finish, Upgradable RAM, Four Thunderbolt 3 ports, Healthy 4K display support, Impressive performance, Improved Mac OS Mojave
  • Limited upgradability, Very limited internal access, Can get pricey
  • One major benefit of Apple's four-year gap between updates is that there's no confusion about the new Mac mini — it's better than any of its predecessors. And if you've been looking for a chance to upgrade from an older model, there's no reason to wait.It...
