Apple has launched its latest Mac mini in India, featuring cutting-edge performance, a compact design, and a strong commitment to sustainability. The desktop computer comes equipped with Apple’s new M4 and M4 Pro chips, offering significant speed and efficiency improvements, making it an attractive choice for students, professionals, and everyday users alike.
The Mac mini with the M4 chip is priced at ₹59,900, while the M4 Pro model costs ₹1,49,900. Educational discounts are available, bringing the prices down to ₹49,900 and ₹1,39,900, respectively. Pre-orders are open, with the new Mac mini hitting stores on November 8th.
Apple’s M4 chip boasts a processing power increase of up to 1.8 times and double the graphics performance compared to its predecessor, the M1 chip. For users requiring even more power, the M4 Pro chip delivers blazing-fast speeds and enhanced processing capabilities, ideal for demanding tasks such as video editing, 3D rendering, and professional workloads.
The new Mac mini comes packed with connectivity options. Notably, the M4 Pro model features Thunderbolt 5 ports for the first time, offering twice the data transfer speed of the previous Thunderbolt 4 standard. It also includes USB-C, HDMI, Ethernet, and an audio jack, allowing seamless connection of multiple devices.
Sustainability takes center stage with this new release. The Mac mini is Apple’s first carbon-neutral computer, constructed with 50% recycled materials and utilizing renewable energy in its production process. Apple has also transitioned to fibre-based packaging, reducing plastic waste.
The new Mac mini also introduces Apple Intelligence, offering AI-powered tools for rewriting text, summarizing content, and creating images, all while safeguarding user privacy. In December, Apple plans to integrate ChatGPT into these features, further enhancing productivity and providing real-time assistance.
The Mac mini supports multiple displays, with the M4 model capable of powering up to two 6K displays, while the M4 Pro model can handle three 6K screens, making it perfect for users who rely on multiple monitors. Apple’s new Magic Keyboard, Magic Trackpad, and Magic Mouse, available in USB-C versions, can be purchased separately, with prices ranging from ₹7,500 to ₹17,500.
Apple’s updated Mac mini combines power, sustainability, and innovation in a compact design, making it a compelling upgrade option for users seeking to enhance their desktop setup.
