Apple is completely out of touch. The only reason why people buy the Mac Mini over just getting a MacBook Air and hooking it up to a monitor is because of the high number of ports on the Mini vs. a laptop. 6 USB ports is the absolute minimum a Mac Mini should have. I bet this new one will have 2. I'm done with Apple. Their products suck now.
"Apple is obsessed with making things bigger" That's a nice rock you're living under. Not happening anyway. If anything, we'll get USB ports and the card reader on the front like the Studio. Nothing more.
Get rid of the “Skit” Or give us a couple of seconds warning so we can jump to the proper bit of the video cause u make urself look like a fool. I respect you less every time I see them in the opening milliseconds of your video. Honestly can’t take u seriously anymore.
I feel like this is an only me want but I would love for the Mac Mini to be ran off of USB-C power/ I don't know if the 100w ish limit would be enough but still would be cool.
Let’s add a power brick that is bigger than the Mac mini that is 17x as inconvenient as a full size Mac mini. With no ports because it’s too small to have ports. So it will be less useful than an iPad. More inconvenient, and vastly more senseless.
Honestly i kinda hope they make the m4 smaller, out of plastic/aluminium like the apple tv It will probably be passively cooled, or a fan for the m4 pro variant and the psu will be included, kinda hyped to be honest
Considering their are a bunch of tiny NUC PC's in the market it's about freaking time. Nothing mini about the big Mac mini. I've been saying this for the longest time, they should make a small mac the size of the AppleTV.
Mini getting yet smaller means just once thing: apple are finally putting to rest any hopes for upper-perf silicon ala Max chips. Which is a departure from the 'mini is whatever is in the macbook lineup' we had until not long ago.
What I want on the base M4 mini: fanless heatsink case, powered by USB-C, wifi7, expose all 4 thunderbolt ports. The M4 pro should have a larger body, be fan cooled, have an internal PSU and a 10Gb ethernet option.
Even though I am a PC guy, I do like the Mac Mini product. Thus, this would be great product if it goes into mass production. Even if it performed on the M2 Air level, that would still be good from a CPU standpoint alone.
4:49 i believe it. It makes the most sense. Even if it’s downclocked a bit, the iPad Pro runs off passive cooling with no vents. Certainly a vented Mac mini in an apple tv enclosure should be able to sustain modest work loads and stay relatively cool.
I honestly would've preferred the same design with a major cooling overhaul instead. Unless they're bigger than your average desktop PC case, desktop computer sizes really don't matter. Plus the design is timeless. Nothing else screams Apple more than a big hunk of aluminum.
Making the mini smaller would mean less ports and passive cooling leading to the usual compromises attached.
Mac nano
The should put it in a magic keyboard
It may be cheap for basic model. However, the cost of adding memory and storage is much higher.
Could they PLEASE give us a BLACK computer? I’m so sick of silver metal.
The current Mini is already so MINIMALIST……smaller is OK but yea…….I hope they don't stint on the Ports.
Half the size, twice the 'magic' price

An apple tv sized mac mini sounds amazing for a minimalist like me. And used mac mini m2/3's will be great deals on the used markets

Tim impression was spot on
About f%ckin’ time!

I would think they could ship without a power – just having USB-C…. like a phone or a iPad

If it has external PSU … FAIL.
Since the Mac mini got the M1 chip the computer has been mostly air, so this is something that’s just been waiting to be done.
This would be good.
The new iMac design with the M series chips is hideous.
Would love to get an m4 Mac mini and a studio display
😊😊😊😊
Why reinvent the wheel?
The Mini form factor is just fine.
I can’t think of any use case where you actually need the mini to be smaller.
Even the current one you could strap at the back of a monitor

Half the size and 6 times the bake. Get ready for egg frying on mac minis.
A morning s mack😂
intro was hilarious 🤣
Fuck Apple. Was not wanting for a new oven, they always fxxx me with there shit designs

Half the size, half the price lol brilliant
Wait for m5 macmini !!
If it isn't broke, then why would they fix it.

Macmini is a desktop.If it doesn't have a fan,then it could be dumb.

OMG I can actually imagine that this will be how the presentation will go for the mini-same kind of language and tone 😂😂😂😂

I hope the price drops
I would of thought by now with Apple Silicon, the MAC nano could just be powered by USBc PD with a Ga Power wart for around 100-150w
They should get the Mac mini to stream to an Apple TV so it functions like a game console.
With Satechi hub you can build a mini Mac Studio looking thing.
