I tried Apple’s new M4 Mac Mini for my daily programming tasks where I create websites, code, do some web design etc. The Mac Mini is the newest product from Apple with the new M4 Chip and it’s meant to be a powerhouse, but how does it stack up when doing things like running AI models, coding in vs code, cursor, python, running virtual machines, emulating ios devices for react native, etc?!

Finally review for development, thx
How is it running both simulators android and ios? Does it run smoothly?
Can you please try to run flux models on this base?
If your going to buy storage and Ram then you might as well say no the base model is not acceptable and you may as well buy a pro version.
8:42 Did I just hear the 4090 doesn't perform as well?! Wow, really impressive for the Mac Mini!
can we turn off the apple intelligence if we require RAM for virtualization just in case to save up on resources
You look like Mr beast
Can you please check if there is a way I can run a local code Helping AI on this mac and make it available to everyone on my local network keeping context of different chats simultaneously?
Windows 11 Pro runs flawlessly on parallels
If you need ram for vmware, you might as well use that money to buy a windows mini-pc.
I forwarded your video link to my CEO. I hope she will like it.
I used the 32B token from qwen-coder-2.5 and get about 5 TPS I have the 32 GB M4 version.
Apple GPU can't be used to run llm because there is no cuda equivalent. It is sad that apple doesnt work with Nvidia for ai workload
Can this run on any power bank?
Thank a lot, i'm fvcking finding m4 for coding.. :)))
Just noticed the M4 Mini at my local MicroCenter for $499, or $475 on my MC credit card. There's simply no competition at that price.
I was hoping you would do mobile dev and emulation as that is usually the most demanding tasks
the stop motion was a chefs kiss, super well done.
Why don't you show the RAM usage when having all of those tools running? 😉
New sub here. Great channel. Would you be so kind as to answer a few questions. I mostly use Final Cut Pro & Photoshop to create videos on my Billy Luna Crime Stories YT channel. I am working in 1080p, but plan to start working in 4k. Currently I am Using a Sandisk Extreme Pro SSD (2TB & 4TB) to edit off whilst using FCP. I like to use Final Cut Pro, Photoshop and 40 web browser tabs open simultaneously.
1) For my needs, which exact configuration of the new M4 Mac Mini should I get? (Pro or no, RAM, SSD) These are the two configurations that I have been mulling:
$1,079.00
Apple M4 chip with 10‑core CPU, 10‑core GPU, 16‑core Neural Engine
32GB unified memory
Or
$1,799.00
512GB SSD storage
Apple M4 Pro chip with 12‑core CPU, 16‑core GPU, 16‑core Neural Engine
48GB unified memory
512GB SSD storage
2) Is there any speed or performance advantage in going with a 1 TB SSD vs 512?
3) Do I need to worry about fan noise when I’m recording on camera video or voice over?
Бесполезно
Not a lot of programming in a video about programming. Programmers want their inner loop to be as fast as possible. So I'd probably want test like… how fast can I build some giant C++ project or something.
3:18 well that is not 256GB storage 🙁
I never understood how a 'coder' is OK with that tiny keyboard made for influencer barbies. just because that that palm-sized thing looks cool on a two-metre table? If there is something really requiring a full size keyboard, it is coding.
Have you perhaps ever heard of function keys, one key copy/paste, and keyboard shortcut combinations not requiring your toes ? you can't imagine how much more efficient and ergonomic it is
I’ve been waiting for a video like this. Thank you.
Mx master can be connected via bluetooth?
kudos for the extra video work
does anyone know if it's possible to use an imac m1 as a monitor for a mac mini?
Is it good for cyber security student?
Correction: the front are USB's 3.2 not thunderbolt
I am using it as a server that serves over 30k requests an hour while it sits in a corner on my desk. F U AWS.
Very good demo of LLMs and other programming tools. It's a very good load test for mac mini m4
I've just waiting for such a video, thank you very much! Try to cummulate the power of your M4 Macs and Nvidia PC with EXO (exolabs) using all your thunderbolt ports. That would be really powerful team. Could you make the video about it?
I’d say more ram but stay at 256 storage and just buy an external storage💯👍👍👍
can i do heavy web browsing on this base modle ike 30 to 40 tab on crome without solowness
Great video. One minor correctiion – the front USB ports are not Thunderbolt. Specs are: USB-C ports with support for USB 3 (up to 10Gb/s).
