For years, the Mini was the odd man out in the Mac desktop lineup. Apple has given plenty of love to the iMac over the years. The Mac Pro has had a few false starts, but the company is clearly committed to offering a true professional-grade desktop experience. The Studio is the new kid on the block, addressing a wide range of price points, from under $2,000 to upwards of $5,000.
When Apple announced the first wave of its M series of chips in 2020, it used the opportunity to reconnect with the Mini. The arrival of first-party silicon was enough reason to be excited, overshadowing the fact that the company hadn’t redesigned the system’s enclosure in the decade since the first Mini was announced.
