First of all, youРІР‚в„ўre able to configure the Apple Mac mini (2018) quite extensively, allowing you to upgrade various components before you make that purchase to make sure that you get a Mac mini that best suits your needs and budget. ThereРІР‚в„ўs also a few things Apple has done to mitigate the userРІР‚в„ўs inability to easily upgrade. For anyone used to AppleРІР‚в„ўs way of doing things, it wonРІР‚в„ўt be too surprising.

This means when the Mac Mini starts to show its age, you wonРІР‚в„ўt be able to open it up and throw in more powerful components РІР‚вЂњ besides the memory.Р”Р‡or anyone transitioning from a PC environment where upgradability is essential, this will be frustrating. It shouldnРІР‚в„ўt come as a surprise, but the Apple Mac Mini isnРІР‚в„ўt easily upgradeable, unlike mini PCs like the Intel NUC or Zotac ZBox range.

As per usual, the keyboard and mouse aren't included, so there's another two accessories to factor into your budget.Р”Р„ll these ports are kept at the back of the Mac mini for a minimalist look and to keep the wires from sprawling all over the place.

On the upside, with Thunderbolt 3 you'll be able to run two 4K displays at once and still have two ports leftover РІР‚вЂњ maybe one for an external graphics card (eGPU) solution, which the Apple Mac mini (2018) supports. Since the Mac mini is built as a creator's tool, multiple monitors are often a must, so many users will have to buy additional peripherals. With only one HDMI port, you'll have to either upgrade to a Thunderbolt 3 monitor or make do with an adapter if you want to connect to more than one monitor. On the back corner, thereРІР‚в„ўs a power button as well as the increasingly rare (for Apple products, at least) 3.5mm headphone jack. Ports-wise, the Apple Mac mini (2018) comes with four Thunderbolt 3 USB-C ports, an HDMI 2.0 port, two USB-A ports, audio jack and Gigabit Ethernet, alongside a 10Gb Ethernet option. It means that it runs cooler and quieter as well РІР‚вЂњ essential for a small form-factor PC. The move to a PCIe solid state drive (SSD) for storage doesnРІР‚в„ўt just make the Mac mini faster. Apple also asserts that the new Mac mini is made of 60% post-consumer plastic, mostly in the base, with the chassis made from 100% recycled aluminum. Within the same dimensions, the Mac mini affords a more powerful hardware than ever before, thanks to a redesigned thermal architecture that features a bigger fan, expanded vents and an overhauled power supply.Р”Р„pple has made some small changes to the Mac miniРІР‚в„ўs design РІР‚вЂњ it now comes in the same Space Grey as the iMac Pro, though itРІР‚в„ўs the only color option this time around.

If you plan on utilizing your Mac for creative applications, the new Mac mini is a more affordable route, compared to something like the iMac Pro, which sets you back a whopping $4,999 (Р’Р€4,899, AU$7,299) for the base model РІР‚вЂњ though if you do have a lot of cash to shell out and you require a ton of power for things like video edting, we'd wait until the new Mac Pro 2019 rolls out in Fall 2019 starting at $5,999.Р”Р‡ans of the compact, no-nonsense designs of previous Mac minis will be happy to learn that the new Mac mini inherits the same small, square-ish metal design that measures 7.7 x 7.7 x 1.4 inches (19.7 x 19.7 x 3.6cm) and weighs slightly heavier than the last Mac Mini at 2.9 pounds (1.3kg), compared to the older Mac miniРІР‚в„ўs weight of 2.6 pounds (1.19kg).

If you switch any of the components, the price also change, which gives you some flexibility when it comes to balancing power with budget. Size: 7.7 x 7.7 x 1.4 inches (19.7 x 19.7 x 3.6cm W x D x H) Price and availability
