The Mac mini, as you may know, doesn’t have a microphone.
My only complaint is the placement of the audio jack.
#I MAC MINI REVIEW BLUETOOTH#
Bluetooth performance has been flawless as well and I was able to work with three Bluetooth-enabled devices (headphones, keyboard, and mouse) at the same time. On the plus side, the M1 Mac mini’s wireless connectivity is of the highest quality, courtesy of the latest Wi-Fi 6 technology. Other than that, you’ll find a pair of USB-A ports, an HDMI input, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.įor most buyers, these changes won’t be deal-breakers but they’re still worth keeping in mind especially if you intend to use your Mac mini for the next four or five years. It’s also not configurable to 10GB Ethernet, which means network speeds will top out at 1GBps. On top of that, it supports a maximum of two external screens - the Intel Mac mini can handle three - and only one of them can be hooked via Thunderbolt. Although all of the inputs are neatly clustered at the back on a black plastic strip, as they were before, the M1 Mac mini loses a handful of ports that were available on its two-year-old Intel sibling.įor starters, the new Mac mini has just two Thunderbolt 3 USB-C slots, compared to the Intel version’s four. One of the areas where Apple cut corners to bring down the cost is the port selection. As teardowns revealed, that weight loss is the result of a more closely packed SoC, which we’ll get to in more detail later. Another minor alteration Apple made is apparent as soon as you take the new Mac mini out of its box: it’s 0.3 pounds lighter.
