Apple's M4 Mac mini Deals at Amazon

Amazon is currently offering some strong discounts on the M4 Mac mini lineup across different configurations, coinciding with Best Buy’s Week 1 Black Friday Doorbusters.

Entry-Level M4 Mac mini Now $499

The most affordable M4 Mac mini model, featuring 16GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD, is available at Amazon for $499 shipped, down from its usual price of $599. This $100 reduction makes it one of the best values in Apple’s current Mac lineup.

Performance and Value

This configuration delivers a full macOS experience paired with a versatile set of I/O options, all for under $500. Many, including myself, consider this the best balance of performance and cost in today’s Macs.

"Landing a current-generation Mac, especially now with the base 16GB RAM tier, is a steal no matter how you look at it."

Storage Considerations

While the 256GB SSD remains the base option, it’s starting to feel outdated given current storage demands.

Summary of Offers

This deal is expected to return in the future, but it is a solid purchase if these specs meet your needs.

Author's summary: Amazon’s $499 M4 Mac mini with 16GB RAM offers exceptional macOS performance and I/O options, representing great value despite its modest 256GB storage.
