Description
The Apple Mac mini now features Apple’s first chip designed specifically for Mac. The Apple M1 integrates the CPU, GPU, Neural Engine, I/O, and more into a single system on a chip (SoC). All of this boosts the Mac mini to an entirely different level, as it features up to three times faster CPU performance, up to six times faster graphics, and up to 15 times faster machine learning with the 16-Core Neural Engine. You’ll be able to work, play, and create on a Mac mini with more power and speed than previous models, making it suitable for home offices, gaming, music creation, digital art and signage, and more. Adding to the Mac mini’s power is 8GB of RAM, which helps to ensure smooth multitasking and also allows the computer to quickly access frequently used files and programs.
The 8-Core GPU delivers a sharp, clear picture, and you’ll be able to output video to an external display using the system’s Thunderbolt 3 ports, which feature native DisplayPort output, or use the built-in HDMI 2.0 port. You’ll be able to connect one 6K / 60 Hz display using Thunderbolt 3 and a second 4K / 60 Hz display using HDMI 2.0.
For storing your files, this Mac mini is equipped with a 256GB SSD that delivers speeds of up to 3.4 GB/s. If you want to add external peripherals, two Thunderbolt 3 / USB4 ports that support bi-directional transfer speeds of up to 40 Gb/s, as well as 10 Gb/s USB 3.1 Gen 2, plus charging and power for external devices. Thanks to two 5 Gb/s USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-A ports, you’ll still be able to connect other devices to this system. Gigabit Ethernet is built in for wired networking, or use Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) for wireless access. Bluetooth 5.0 technology will allow you to connect additional compatible peripherals, including keyboards, mice, and headsets. Sound is output using a 3.5mm headphone jack. Apple’s Mac mini operates using an internal 150W power supply that runs off 100-240 VAC at 50 to 60 Hz.
This Mac comes preloaded with macOS. Updates can be downloaded for free via the Mac App Store. Please check Apple’s website for upgrade eligibility Also, please be aware that a keyboard and mouse are not included.

Having moved from a PC, we are impressed with the Apple infrastructure and how well it works with our other Apple devices. The Mac Mini was easy to set up, worked with our existing devices, runs everything fine. Chrome actually runs much faster and smoother than on a year-old gaming PC! The built-in speaker works better than expected, well enough to use for simple things, then we just share with Apple TV for listening to music. The IO set was fine for us, since we use HDMI and wired LAN.

Fast, complete computing solution. Only complaint would be the lack of ports which is easily solved with under $20 options.

This new M1 Apple Mac Mini is the best Apple computer since the original Apple Mac of the early ’80’s.

Most of stuff now happening would never ever happen when Steve Jobs was around. 1. Locked into 16 g memory and it is soldered meaning now way to expand. 2. Older BT keyboard and mouse will not connect. Had to use older usb keyboard and mouse. 3. Main purpose was to be a Time Machine, and holy crap, this app is a total piece of junk. M1 chip does rock.

fast, fast, fast!…lol…being in music production, I need to have reliability & performance. Th Mac mini has given me this. I’m able to do more & create at my pace.

Knew going in that there were no user serviceable parts (no way to add more memory or extra disks, unlike previous minis), and that there would be software in compatibilities with Big Sur. However, it is MUCH worse than I feared!!! At least half of all my apps no longer worked and only a few of the vendors have upgrades as yet.

B&H was in constant communication with me about when I would receive it and it was on time. I bought this for my father since he had an old mac mini. It was easy to install and is working great! Couldn’t be happier with my purchase!

Great service, right price, faster than expected delivery.

I was worried because I thought that non-native apps like adobe premiere and after effects were going to be unusable. On the contrary. I’m not a 4k video or 3d user, so my 1080p video projects work and render just fine. I am even able to use Red Giant plug ins. I’m coming from a macbook 13 inch 2020 and those apps seem comparable. The other apps that are native, are a bonus. I did try the betas of Creative Cloud on this and they are not complete. I’ve actually refrained from using them until the features increase. For now I’m ok with using the intel versions and knowing they will get faster as more features get added. I run 2 monitors on it. 1 via HDMI and 1 via thunderbolt. I’ve had no monitor problems. I also run a logitech bluetooth keyboard, which has been working with no problems The drawback I found is that I can’t use my video capture device on it. I have a device that works fine on my macbook, but I don’t think that its compatible with the M1 chip. Also, I use Kerio VPN and an M1 Version hasn’t been developed yet either. Lack of ports is also and issue as i have all of them and a hub packed to the max.

Works very well and is extremely fast. I enjoy finally to have a 4K driver for my screen. My Lightroom pictures are so much more prettier now and everything I do is so fast. Excellent design.
Johathan Koelpin (verified owner) –
This device handles very well and has very few compromises due to the new chip, but it tries to fix the ones it does have with its translation software rosette 2. I would recommend this to anybody who is looking for a desktop and is looking for something in their budget. Great buy can’t wait to see what else I can do with it.

Great mini mac. It is just like a desktop mac. Would recommend.
Paul Farrell (verified owner) –
This new generation Mac Mini M1 with 16GB is amazing. For the price it is definitely the highest performing machine (for most applications). It is silent and uses little energy but renders video amazingly fast. I’ve bought 6 for a render farm in some cases. Definitely get the 16GB version. They appear to be harder to get – so don’t wait to purchase.

This computer is a great computer. It’s fast, small, and I love macOS.
Calista Romaguera (verified owner) –
This is my first Apple computer and all I have to say is WOW. It’s compact and I am editing 4k video without the lags experienced on my PC. The purchase from B&H was seamless and the delivery was extremely fast thanks to the team at B&H.

I am pleased with my M1 Mac Mini. The hardware is excellent, and if you take the time to learn the various apps that come with the computer, it is an outstanding value overall.

The Mac mini has helped so much with my photography that im able to see the full quality and extent of my camera and editing. I recommend this to everyone who looking for the best graphics and quality.

I had difficulty with my Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. I tried 2 different keyboards and 2 different mouses and none would work consistently. I now am using my old plug-in HP keyboard.
Marisa Trantow (verified owner) –
It is made of good quality and I prefer macOS to Windows for many reasons. When you compare all what it brings and the quality then you might understand why of the price. However, Apple is offering discounts on it’s products every month

The perfect machine for my needs. I ordered the 16 GB version which, so far, has never used more than 7 GB. My work is mainly CAD, photography and Office 365 tasks and web surfing. B&H are a dream to deal with, my products; Mac Mini, 9th Gen iPad and keyboard where shipped promptly and arrived FAST and safe directly into my hands. Thank you B&H
