Mac mini M2: what's new from Apple
Of the new that Apple prepares, one of the most anticipated devices seems to be the Mac mini M2, of which there are a lot of rumors. Specifically, it is said that it could make its appearance at WWDC 2022, which will take place on June 6, accompanied by a new MacBook Air.
Although not certain, it seems most likely due to leaks surrounding Apple's new devices for 2022. Read on to find out what's being said about the new Mac mini.
What is expected to be the design of the Mac mini M2?
The main thing that is expected is that it will be a much smaller device than its predecessors, with a view to the future that it will be reduced more. On the other hand, it maintains a current input similar to that of iMacs that equip an M1 chip.
For the rest, it maintains its rectangular shape, with the on/off button located on the back. In the long term, it seems to be the design that Apple will maintain for this line of devices.
What will be the connections of the new Mac mini?
As for its benefits, it was learned that it would maintain the same ports as its predecessor. That is, it would keep the HDMI output, in addition to a couple of traditional USB-A inputs.
It will also include a gigabit Ethernet input and will double the USB-C Thunderbolt ports, reaching 4 of this type of connection.
Will it have the new Apple M2 Mac mini chip?
One of the questions and doubts related to the new Mac mini M2 is whether it will have the new generation of Apple chips. In essence, they promise enormous work capacity, allowing their devices to be very useful in work contexts.
But, it will depend on when the device is launched, since it can either keep the current generation of chips, or incorporate the new one. However, what is expected is the latter, which comes with an M2 chip, accompanying the new possible line of MacBook Air.
Even models considered high-end could be capable of incorporating an M2 Pro chip. In this way, it is likely that in the future we will have a Mac Studio M2 Max.
With this in mind, the Mac mini M2 is likely to make a big splash at WWDC, which is said to be its debut event.
mac mini m2 price
The price of the Mac mini will depend on what Apple is aiming for with its sale, that is, if it will look much more professional. However, if they want to maintain sales, they will most likely keep the price around 800-900 euros.
But, when it comes to configurations with higher-end elements, the price could simply reach 2,000 euros. Indeed, it will depend on the chosen storage, as well as the chip that integrates the device.
Additionally, it is expected that with the launch of the new Mac mini M2, its predecessor will tend to drop in price, thus counting on discounts. Therefore, it would be an ideal time to acquire it.
