Apple launches new Mac Mini with M4 chip, priced from $599

Apple has just officially launched the new generation Mac Mini computer with a more compact and powerful design, equipped with the latest M4 chip.

Mac Mini is an Apple desktop computer, featuring an extremely compact design that saves installation space, but still meets the needs of using a full computer with powerful configuration and performance.

More than a year after launching the Mac Mini version with M2 and M2 Pro chips in January 2023, "Apple" has just introduced a new Mac Mini upgrade, with the latest M4 and M4 Pro chip options.

The Mac Mini M4 comes standard with 16GB of RAM, marking a new standard across Apple's lineup. The base M4 version starts at $599, while the more powerful M4 Pro starts at $1,399.

Apple has accepted pre-orders and will officially put the product on shelves on November 8.

The notable highlight of the new Mac Mini is its ultra-compact size, with a width and length of 12.7cm and a thickness of 5cm. The product weighs only 0.67kg if the M4 chip option is selected and 0.73kg if the M4 Pro chip option is selected.

Apple said the device has the ability to cool effectively thanks to the new heat dissipation structure on the M4 chip, which helps direct air flow to different parts and is released through the ventilation system at the base of the device.

The new Mac Mini also gets a connectivity upgrade with two USB-C ports and a 3.5mm audio jack on the front, while the rear features Ethernet, HDMI, and three USB-C/Thunderbolt ports. Notably, the USB-A ports have been removed, replaced by a Thunderbolt port, bringing the total number of ports to five.

The speed of these ports depends on the M4 chip version: the standard version comes with Thunderbolt 4, while the M4 Pro chip supports Thunderbolt 5 with higher speeds.

The Mac Mini M4 Pro delivers powerful performance with 14 CPU cores and 20 GPU cores. Users can configure up to 32GB of RAM with the regular M4 chip or 64GB with the M4 Pro chip, and storage can reach a maximum of 8TB.

Additionally, users can also opt for 10 gigabit Ethernet, providing flexibility for professional and creative users who need a powerful device while remaining compact in size.

Previously, Apple had revealed that this week would be a "busy announcement week" and promised to launch a series of new computers. After launching the iMac and Mac Mini using the M4 chip, the technology world and users are waiting for Apple to launch a series of new MacBooks and Mac Studio with the M4 chip in the coming days.
