Reviews for New Mac Mini and Mac Studio Are Out

Jason Snell, reviewing the new M6 Mac mini: I get it. Memory and processors are skyrocketing in price due to the AI gold rush, on top of inflation. But the fact remains that at $599, the Mac mini was about as close to an impulse buy as a Mac desktop could get. At $899, it’s crossed an invisible threshold. I can understand it, but I don’t have to like it. It is unfortunate just as Apple seems to be pushing for lower-cost devices -- Mac mini, Mac Neo, iPhone e -- prices for memory and storage go way up. ~ Mac Mini Reviews: M6 Mac Mini Review: Tiny, Pricey, and Powerful, by Jason Snell, Six Colors The Mac Mini is Still Mighty, Just Not As Cheap, by Antonio G.
