Powerful desktop with an impressively compact design. Ideal for a wide range of applications, but hardly expandable after purchase.
Apple charges a whopping 750 euros extra for the larger M4 Pro in the Mac mini. The hefty surcharge is particularly worthwhile for users who want to edit photos and videos - and then maybe play a bit of games. However, if you "only" want to work, you can also stick with the small Mac mini with M4 and invest the money saved in equipment and employees.
The new Mac mini is the best desktop Mac that Apple has ever built for the masses. What's more, it is probably the best desktop computer ever if your work profile fits and Windows or gaming are not a constraint. Such a highly scalable architecture in a 0.8-litre housing and at a price starting at 599 francs: with the necessary care when configuring it, you are guaranteed to enjoy it for years to come.
