The new Mac mini maintains its signature silver aluminum finish but now utilises an impact extrusion process, reducing the amount of aluminum used by 85%. Apple has also highlighted the device as the first carbon-neutral Mac, thanks to its use of recycled materials and renewable energy in manufacturing.

In terms of performance, the previous M2 processor has been replaced with the latest M4 processor, offering speeds up to 1.8 times faster than the M1. The M4 Pro variant, featuring up to 14 cores, 20 GPU cores, and a 16-core neural engine, is designed for users seeking even higher performance levels. With support for up to 64GB of RAM, the M4 Pro promises to be twice as fast as its predecessor, the Mac mini with M2 Pro.


Apple has also upgraded the Thunderbolt connectivity on the M4 Pro, now offering Thunderbolt 5 connections that deliver double the transfer speed compared to previous models. The M4 Pro utilises second-generation 3-nanometer technology, enhancing both performance and power efficiency. Additionally, the chip is optimised for Apple Intelligence, a new feature introduced by the company.
