Apple Set to Unveil Smaller, More Powerful Mac Mini
Apple is preparing to launch a significantly upgraded Mac mini, according to a recent report by Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman. The new model is expected to be substantially smaller than its predecessor, approaching the size of an Apple TV set-top box.
The compact desktop computer, which sits between the consumer-oriented iMac and professional-grade desktops in Apple’s lineup, will feature a redesigned port configuration. Some models will include two ports in the front and three in the back, enhancing connectivity options for users.
In a first for the Mac mini line, the new model will support ray tracing graphics technology, potentially offering improved visual performance for gaming and professional applications.
Gurman suggests that this upcoming Mac mini could be the most impressive Mac yet to utilize Apple’s in-house silicon, signaling a significant leap in performance and capabilities.
The Mac mini upgrade is part of a broader announcement of new Apple devices. The tech giant is also expected to introduce a 24-inch iMac, a 16-inch MacBook Pro, and two configurations of the 14-inch MacBook Pro. All these devices will be powered by Apple’s latest M4 chip, promising enhanced performance across the board.
In addition to the Mac lineup refresh, Gurman reports on a rumored Apple smart home display. This device is said to be approximately the size of two iPhones placed side-by-side and will feature a small base reminiscent of the iconic iMac G4, housing built-in speakers.
As Apple continues to innovate across its product lines, these upcoming releases are poised to offer consumers and professionals alike new options in computing power and functionality.
