Apple has once again piqued user interest with the new version of the Mac mini, its most compact computer which continues to generate good reviews. If you want to buy one, here are the 5 reasons why it’s a great option when renewing your office device.
Power in a (more) compact design
The Mac mini packs a punch in a surprisingly small package. At just 5 inches wide, this computer is 20 times more compact than the best-selling desktop PC in its price range. but offers up to 6 times more speed. This combination of power and small size makes it an ideal option for limited workspaces or for those looking for a discreet but powerful device.
Innovative M4 and M4 Pro chips
At the heart of the new Mac mini are the Apple M4 and M4 Pro chips, which deliver exceptional performance. These processors integrate the fastest processor core in the worlda powerful GPU with hardware-accelerated ray tracing and an advanced neural engine. This results in a smooth user experience, super realistic graphics in games and 3D rendering, and optimal performance in tasks requiring artificial intelligence. I had the opportunity to test it with a Mac mini that I own from 2014 and the comparison is impossible in terms of performance.
Built for Apple Intelligence
The Mac mini is optimized to take advantage of Apple Intelligence, a personal intelligence system that significantly improves productivity and which we will be able to enjoy in Europe from spring next year. This technology offers Advanced writing tools, original image creation, and natural language searches in the Photos app. Additionally, Apple Intelligence is designed with a focus on privacy, on-device information processing, and the use of innovative private cloud computing for more complex tasks.
Connectivity Versatility
This computer offers a wide range of ports, including USB-C, headphone jack, HDMI, Ethernet and Thunderbolt, both front and rear. This variety of connections allows for great flexibility in workspace setup, supporting up to three monitors and making it easy to connect various peripherals and accessories. In this case, more is better.
A commitment to sustainable development, but for real
The Mac mini is environmentally friendly. This is the first Mac carbon neutral, reflecting Apple’s commitment to sustainability. It is designed to be compact and efficient in the use of materials, making it an attractive option for consumers conscious of the environmental impact of their electronic devices.
