Mark Gurman of Bloomberg reported that Apple plans to release the Mac mini with M4 and M4 Pro processors, as well as a new design, at the end of 2024.
The new Mac mini will mark the first major redesign of the computer since 2010, making it the smallest desktop PC from Apple. It is expected to be closer in size to the Apple TV.
The device will still have an aluminum case. People familiar with the project have described the gadget as “essentially an iPad Pro in a small casing.”
Apple has tested at least three Mac mini models, each with at least three USB-C ports on the back, a power cable area, and an HDMI port. The base M4 model is expected to start shipping this month, while the more powerful M4 Pro version won’t be ready until October. [MacRumors]
