Apple's $799 Mac mini debuts with double the storage

The Mac mini is Apple's cheapest desktop option

Last updated

Apple has issued a minor update to the Mac mini, with it now including double the storage as the previous entry-level model for the same price.

Nothing else appears to have changed in the Mac mini other than the default flash storage. But, Apple's means that you can get a new Mac mini at the same price with twice the storage.

For the standard $799 model, you'll get 256GB of storage with an Intel i3 processor, and the $1,099 model now has 512GB of storage with an Intel i5 processor. Additional configurations include higher storage and better processors. A model with an Intel i7 processor, maxed out storage at 2TB, and 64GB of RAM retails for $2,899.

Pickup options are unavailable due to Apple Store closures, but orders placed immediately will ship by Friday the 20th.

Isn't that an oxymoron... a Mac Mini Pro. What would be the point of a non-pro Mac Mini that is pro in name only. What I would like to see is a lowering of the entry point of the Mac Pro to an Intel i5 or i7 perhaps - maybe we could call it the Mac Pro Mini (LOL). But it would still have the ugradability and configurability pro goodness that some of us poorer professional crave.

The only thing the Mac Mini needs is a BTO option for a discrete GPU or at least Intel Iris Pro.

Some of us are not gamers and do not need bleeding edge GPUs but need more than the lame options currently offered.
