The older we get, the more we love the Mac mini

Nearly 20 years ago, Apple launched its very first Mac mini. Since this release with great fanfare in January 2015, Apple has continued to improve its desktop computer. Improved versions ofMac mini, smaller and with M4 and M4 Pro chips, should even see the light of day by the end of the year. Something to delight those over 45?Yes, the Mac mini would be particularly appreciated by users in this age category according to a recent study.

The Mac mini is especially popular among those over 45

Good news for Apple, the Mac mini is still popular. A survey by Consumer Intelligence Research Partners reveals that desktop computers are particularly popular with those over 45. The organization analyzed the recovered Apple consumer dataviasurveys between 2012 and 2024 to draw this observation.So we learn 31% of Mac mini buyers are 45 or older.

Note that the desktop computer is also popular with younger people. 24% turn to the Mac mini compared to 26% to laptops, although one might believe a much more unbalanced relationship. Obviously, Apple's portable Macs remain particularly popular among younger people. They are popular withalmost two thirds of buyers under 34and only 7% of people over 55 (and even 3% of those over 55%).

It's not particularly surprising that older people, who grew up with desktop computers, continue to favor purchasing a Mac mini over a laptop.The CIRP also points out that the base model with M2 chip costs €699, much less than other Apple desktop computers.This is a strong argument, especially since the Mac mini can look head-to-head with some Windows PCs without having to be ashamed of its performance.

Let's hope for fans of Apple brand products that the price of thenext version of Mac miniremains just as reasonable.
