Apple wrests excellent performance out of even the low-end Core i3 processor in the base configuration. The small system remains unobtrusive. The four USB-C/Thunderbolt ports and 10Gb Ethernet option provide for more storage with fast external data transf
The editors didn't like
You're stuck with integrated graphics unless you fork over the bucks and desk space for an eGPU. Relatively high entry price once you spring for the accessories and a display. It no longer serves as a budget option despite being the most affordable Mac

Good bang for the buck, Similar design as previous Mac mini, Speed is competitive with the 2017 iMac
Expecting a new, radical design change? You didn't get it, Its two USBA ports may not be enough, You'll probably need a USBC or HDMI video adapter

Lots of connectivity (USB and Thunderbolt 3), Runs quietly, Big power bump compared to predecessor
Built-in speaker is rubbish, Price point is now rather high
The most obvious obstacle for the new Mac Mini is in justifying its price point. However, there's no denying that in updated spec it now feels like a fully capable Mac – whereas previously it didn't.The Mini is simple and doesn't pretend to be anything th...
