Apple Launches New Mac Mini with M6 and M5 Pro Chips at Higher Prices
Apple has introduced a new generation of the compact Mac Mini, offering two models: one powered by its latest M6 chip starting at $899 and another featuring the high-end M5 Pro processor priced from $1,699. Both are $100 more expensive than their previous-generation counterparts with similar configurations. The new models retain Apple’s signature small form factor but include performance upgrades such as faster storage speeds, 2.5 gigabit Ethernet ports (upgradable to 10 gigabit), and support for Wi-Fi 7 via the N1 chip. The M6 model features a 12-core CPU and GPU with increased memory bandwidth compared to its predecessor, while the M5 Pro offers up to 18 CPU cores and 20 GPU cores. Both models will ship on September 22 after preorders begin today. They come equipped with macOS 27 Golden Gate out of the box, which supports Apple’s new AI features like Siri Intelligence.
