Apple’s Mac Mini has always been the quiet powerhouse in the lineup — and now it’s even more capable. The 2024 model with the M4 Pro chip is built for creators, developers and anyone who wants serious performance in a compact machine. It’s designed to work seamlessly with your iPhone and iPad, and it’s ready for Apple Intelligence.
Amazon is offering the 2024 Mac Mini with the M4 Pro chip for $1,200 — that’s $200 off its $1,400 list price. This version includes 24GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD, making it ideal for demanding workflows.
The Mac Mini M4 Pro packs a 12-core CPU and 16-core GPU into a five-inch square chassis, making it as portable as it is powerful. It can also handle Apple Intelligence and other AI features that help you write, organize and multitask. You’ll get front-facing USB-C ports, as well as HDMI, Thunderbolt and Gigabit Ethernet on the back.

It supports up to three displays and runs apps like Adobe Creative Cloud and Microsoft 365 at lightning speed. And with 24GB of RAM and 512GB of SSD storage, it’s ideal for video editing, coding and 3D modeling. And because it’s carbon neutral, it’s one of Apple’s most eco-conscious desktops to date.
In his review for CNET, Joshua Goldman noted its ultracompact design and strong performance, saying, “It might be just 5 inches square, but you can still fill it full of performance to meet your needs.”
