Apple has unveiled a new Mac mini, the first update to the compact desktop in nearly two years. The refreshed lineup keeps the same design but brings a major internal overhaul, headlined by two new chip options: the all-new M6 and the M5 Pro, which first appeared in the MacBook Pro earlier this year.
The base model now ships with the M6, Apple’s first chip built on a 2nm process. It features a 12-core CPU and 12-core GPU, a dual 16-core Neural Engine, and up to 170GB/s of memory bandwidth. Apple says it delivers up to 40% faster CPU performance, 4x faster AI performance, and 2x faster graphics versus the outgoing M4 Mac mini.
Stepping up to the M5 Pro configuration unlocks up to an 18-core CPU, 20-core GPU, 64GB of unified memory, and 8TB of storage—positioning it as the more capable option for demanding workloads.
