Mac Mini M4: its size compared in images to that of the old model

Apple is having a particularly busy month of October. The Cupertino company recently marketed the newiPad mini 7, before launching the iOS 18.1 update including the first Apple Intelligence features in the United States on October 28. We knew that there was still some left under the apple brand and that thenew Mac mini M4 and M4 Prowould appear very soon. Apple has finally revealed them.Obviously, they stand out by their performance, but also by their size.

Yes, the Mac mini M4 is really much smaller than the M2

Apple presented the new Mac mini M4 and M4 Pro. The latter remains the more powerful, but the two devices are exactly the same size. Are they really that small? Please note that the Mac mini M2 is a square with a side of 19.7 cm and a height of 3.58 cm. The new Mac mini M4 is a little thicker, 5 cm.On the other hand, it is a square with a side of only 12.7 cm.

A fairly considerable reduction in size for a product which was already capable of being very discreet on a desk. A Reddit user called “4paul” made a comparison image of the dimensions of the new Mac mini with the old one, but also with the Mac Studio and the Apple TV box. We can see that the product recently presented by the Cupertino company is really smaller in scale,even if the Apple TV remains a little more compact.

This is one more argument to be put to the credit of the Mac mini M4 and M4 Pro, beyond their SoC.Remember that the first price of the device is €699.You will have a Mac Mini M4 with 16 GB of RAM and 256 GB storage at this price. Expect at least €1,649 for a Mac mini M4 Pro with 32 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage.
