Our Take

The Mac mini with M4 is Apple's compact desktop, redesigned around their latest silicon. It's aimed at home users, creative professionals, and anyone switching from a larger desktop setup. With 24GB of unified memory as standard and a competitive price for Apple hardware, it sits comfortably as the sensible mid-range option in Apple's desktop lineup.

Key Features

Apple M4 chip with 10-core CPU and 10-core GPU

24GB unified memory shared across CPU, GPU, and Neural Engine

512GB NVMe SSD internal storage

Gigabit Ethernet port for wired networking (10Gb Ethernet available as a build-to-order option)

Apple Intelligence support built in, enabling on-device AI features across macOS

Continuity features for seamless iPhone and iPad integration (Handoff, Universal Clipboard, AirDrop)

Our Verdict

A strong buy for anyone wanting a capable, quiet, and compact macOS desktop without paying Mac Studio prices. Particularly well-suited to creative professionals and power users upgrading from older Intel Macs. Those needing Windows software natively, or who already own a capable PC, should look elsewhere.

What We Like

  • Exceptional performance-per-watt; the M4 chip handles demanding workloads without a fan running loudly
  • 24GB unified memory is genuinely useful for video editing, multitasking, and running large language models locally
  • Competitive pricing relative to the performance on offer

Things to Consider

  • No display included — total cost rises considerably once you add peripherals
  • Storage is not user-upgradeable; 512GB may feel tight for large media libraries
  • Gigabit Ethernet is adequate but not cutting-edge for high-throughput network storage
  • Apple Intelligence features remain limited in scope and are still maturing
