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.

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.

General Features

New Guts, More Glory

The Apple M1 chip takes Apple’s versatile, do-it-all desktop to another dimension. With up to three times faster CPU performance, six times faster graphics, and their most advanced Neural Engine for up to 15 times faster machine learning. Get ready to work, play, and create on Mac mini with speed and power beyond anything you ever imagined.

M1 – Small Chip, Giant Leap

It’s here. Apple’s first chip designed specifically for Mac. Packed with an astonishing 16 billion transistors, the Apple M1 system on a chip (SoC) integrates the CPU, GPU, Neural Engine, I/O, and so much more onto a single tiny chip. With incredible performance, custom technologies, and improved power efficiency, M1 is not a next step for Mac – it’s another level entirely.

8-Core CPU – Max Power, Mini Footprint

M1 packs astonishing speed and power into Mac mini. The 8-core CPU delivers up to three times faster processing performance than the previous generation – all while keeping its iconic 7.7″ square design.

Incredible Chip Input, Unbelievable Graphics Output

The 8-core GPU in the M1 chip is the most advanced graphics processor Apple has ever built, full stop. And it brings the world’s fastest integrated graphics in a personal computer to Mac mini, with a gigantic six times increase in graphics performance. That’s an insane amount of power – all in an incredibly compact enclosure.

16-Core Neural Engine

The 16-core Neural Engine is the brains of the operation. Machine learning (ML) brings task-smashing speed and automation to video analysis, voice recognition, image processing, and more. And the M1 chip brings a 16-core Neural Engine and full stack of ML technologies, transforming Mac mini into an ML powerhouse.

Compact Design

The integration of technologies on the M1 chip allows Mac mini to blow away computers many times its size – taking on intensive tasks while consuming up to 60% less energy than the previous generation.

Unified Memory

The M1 chip brings 8GB of fast unified memory. This single pool of high-bandwidth, low-latency memory allows apps to share data between the CPU, GPU, and Neural Engine efficiently – so everything you do is fast and fluid.

SSD Storage

This Mac mini comes with 512GB of all-flash storage for your photo and video libraries, files, and apps. And with speeds up to 3.4 GB/s, apps and files launch and load in an instant.

Versatility – Fits In, Rocks Out

With its compact size, incredible performance, and wide array of ports, Mac mini is perfect for a surprising range of uses. And with the powerful M1 chip unleashed within its 7.7″ square frame, you never know where you’ll find a Mac mini hard at work.

Home Office

Mac mini turns any desk into a powerful workstation. Just add a keyboard, mouse or trackpad, and up to two displays.

Music Creation

The 8-core CPU, superfast unified memory, and ML accelerators in the M1 chip let you run more tracks, plug-ins, and filters in Logic Pro than ever before on Mac mini.

Digital Art and Signage

From jaw-dropping performance art to giant, immersive digital billboards, Mac mini can drive some of the biggest and brightest digital displays with its incredible performance, versatile I/O, and unrivaled power efficiency – all in an ultracompact design.

Connections and Expansion

With two screaming-fast Thunderbolt / USB4 ports, two USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-A ports, HDMI 2.0, Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), and Gigabit Ethernet, Mac mini is up for anything and everything.

Thunderbolt 3 with USB4 Support

Thunderbolt 3 is a hardware interface that utilizes the reversible USB Type-C connector. Doubling the speed of its predecessor, Thunderbolt 3 features a maximum throughput of 40 Gb/s when used with compatible devices. The connector also supports USB4, allowing you to connect to more peripherals, including the Apple Pro Display XDR in full 6K resolution.

Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax)

Another first for Mac mini, Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) delivers better all-around performance and up to 1.2 Gb/s of throughput – for lightning-fast file transfers or backing up to Time Machine.
