So it's mid-october and the apple unleashed event is days away but for the new mac mini m1x
will we see it unleashed well today i'm going to cover this is likely to be the case in my
release date part of this video and also i want to give you more details about the m1x
chipset and when the apple mac mini m1x release date and price is going to be.
Hi it's Matt here, so apple updated the baseline mac mini in 2020 with the m1 chipset inside
however apple still continued to sell the top range mac mini and i'll explain why this is
later on in this video however for design wise we haven't actually seen a true redesign to this mac
since 2010 when we went from the kind of plastic design to the full-on unibody metal design that we
can see here shortly after we had changes like the loss of the cd dvd drive then in 2018 we also got
a space gray version however overall the design has remained the same for about 10 years now
the great news is apple are looking to make a whole new design for the mac mini based on the
renders that you're seeing right here and also apple will be putting in a more powerful apple
silicon chip than the m1 that we currently have right now so going forwards for all the new mac
mini videos like this one i'm going to be first of all talking about specific features and also maybe
talking about some of the latest leaks about those features then afterwards i'll talk about the plan
release date time and then also we'll also discuss the prices and we'll be doing this by doing a
summary of everything we know about the mac mini and also everything else that we've learned in
previous leaks afterwards i'll be revealing my wish list for the next mac mini and also put in
the comments below of what features you'd love to see in the latest map mini and in my next video
i may feature your comment and also discuss my thoughts around it so let's start them with the
expected chipset to be put inside the new mac mini well first of all we have to understand that apple
still sell the intel more expensive mac mini right now now the reason behind this is when everything
was still intel base max this more expensive mac mini was considered to be in the next tier
of apple devices in performance what i mean by this is with the 13 inch macbook pro for example
only the lower tier pro model has got the upgrades to m1 then the higher tier macbook pro is still on
sale right now but that does have an intel chipset inside it but also does have four times usbc
ports and is more regarded as the more powerful 13-inch macbook pro but this will be replaced by
the new 14-inch macbook pro but the current m1 pro 13-inch will still be on sale after
this the same as already mentioned with the mac mini the higher tier mac mini is still for sale
and will be boosted up in performance with the newer chipset but the m1 mac mini will still stay
that new chipset expected to go inside the more powerful macbook pro 14-inch and also the mac mini
is the m1x chipset from a report by mark german he has reported the new m1x is to be a 10 core cpu
and a 16 core to 32 core gpu compared to the 8 core cpu and 8 core gpu that we have in m1 it
could feature 256 execution units rather than the m128 and may be able to drive three monitors at
the same time it's been rumored that the 10 core cpu would have two efficiency cores and eight
performance cores on top at the end of the day by buying this next tier of mac mini
it's more designed for professional creators and developers so to have less efficiency cause
it would be better to be like this due to the type of users who will be using this mac mini
so a quick note with any of these leaks even up to the new mac mini release date
that all reports and leaks are not 100 proof that they will come true and that with the new mac mini
i can only present you what i've been told and shown however if you are watching this video
then you're as curious as i am in knowing what is going to be said about the next mac mini anyway
with that out of the way here's a quick word from our sponsor for just one minute then after we're
going to be talking about the release date the summary of everything we know so far and also the
price of the mac mini so then guys just quickly this channel got over 260 000 subscribers and i
announced who the winner was for this brand new ipad pro m1 and do check out my video
on my channel of who this ipad pro is going to but the great news is guys i am doing another giveaway
and it is for this it is for a brand new iphone 13 pro max 128 gigabyte model in the sierra blue
and i'm going to be giving this away to one lucky subscriber when we get over 300 000 subscribers
and just like the last giveaway what i want you guys to do is put down in the comments below of
what apple gear you plan to buy in 2021 or maybe into 2022. also at the same time make sure you
subscribe to this bus and hit that notification bell because when we get over 300 000 subscribers
i will be notifying you guys or for who the winner is of this brand new iphone and just quickly on
that i do want to quickly comment that if you do get a comment to say that you've won or something
like this before we hit the 300 thousand marker it is probably not me it is most likely a scammer
and the best way you can tell if this is a scam or not is basically open up that person's account
by open clicking on their profile and you'll be able to see how many subscribers they got
and if they've got less than 260 000 subscribers like at the time i'm making this video here then
basically you will know they are not me plus also at the same time as well they will probably have
hardly any videos uploaded and also their account will probably be very very new so do ignore these
emails or these messages from these people or what you can do is at the same time you can actually
report them to youtube but enough of that like i said over three hundred thousand subscribers
is the only time i'm going to be announcing who the winners of this iphone 13 pro max and that's
the only prize i'm gonna be doing between now and then so make sure you subscribe to this channel
hit that notification bell also at the same time guys if you're liking this video so far please do
press the like button well let's get back to the main video so then release date a lot of reports
out there tell us that the macbook pro 14 and 16 inch models are planned to be seen at the new
october unleashed event in just a few days time there were reports that there is also possibility
the new mac mini m1x will launch near the same time but there are still some doubts there is
a possibility we might not see this new map mini until early next year at the spring event in 2022
but still more leaks are favoring a release at the upcoming apple event if this is the case then we
believe pre-orders for the new max will start on friday october 22nd with the max in people's hands
a week later on october 29th however i would say this we have witnessed in the last year or so
quite a few apple products that have not been released straight away like the ipad pro the
m1 imac and also recently the new apple watch series 7. all three of these were released over
four weeks later after the apple event that they were announced at one last point to talk about
before these new maps as well is a lot of people keep referring to the chipset name as the m1x
however there actually hasn't been a single report to confirm this is going to be the case so apple
may call this chipset the m2 or even a totally different name altogether but until the official
name is revealed in this video i'll refer it as the m1x until we have confirmation of the name
but back to the mac mini's release it is possible we will see this launched
at the new event but do not be surprised if it's not seen until 2022 however the moment
we have any more updates to the release date i'll be updating these videos with everything we know
but moving on let's do a summary of what the 2021 mac mini is expected to give us
and the price so as i've already said a lot of these features and specs are subject to change
but one thing we do know most likely what is going to happen with the new mac mini m1x is we're going
to be getting a brand new design as you've been watching in these renders here it's going to be a
slimmer mac mini and also it's one of the big top features is it's going to have that new magsafe
power connector on the back similar to the 24 inch imac that we have right now or just pop straight
out so that is really really cool on top of that as well inside this mac mini we're going to have
the ability to choose from 512 to 8 terabytes of ssd storage so just make that clear that's 512
gigabytes 1 terabyte 2 terabytes 4 terabytes and 8 terabytes of storage then on top of that as well
it will have that brand new m1x chipset inside it and this will come with two efficiency cores
and eight performance cores we're also expecting this chipset to appear in the likes of the new
macbook pros and also that brand new 32 inch imac or imac pro then also for gpu we're expecting
either 16 or 32 core gpu option built right into the m1x and that will reflect on the amount of
ram that you pick for the mac mini and talk about ram there's going to be a choice between
16 gigabytes to 64 gigabytes of ram it's most likely if you choose the bottom range you'll
get that 16 core gpu but if you pick the higher range you'll probably get that 32 core gpu but
this hasn't been 100 confirmed yet but the second it will be we will update this sheet accordingly
also with that design what i talked about we're going to be getting aluminium body frame around
the edges what's going to look really really cool again just like we have at the current mac mini
and then for ports on the back we're going to be getting four times thunderbolt 4 ports and we're
also going to be getting two times usb 3.2 ports the usual sort of usb a design that we get right
now or the usual usb type of port and then also there will be a 10 gigabyte ethernet and then
there will also be a hdmi port that will support hdmi 2.1 the starting price for this mac mini m1x
will start at 1099 us dollars and that will give you a 512 gigabyte storage option and also 16 gigs
of ram because you can flick and change the amount of storage and ram and everything else like that i
can't put all the different prices down here just basically the starting price but moving on let's
talk about my wishes for the mac mini and my wish is to do with the price right now the m1 mac mini
starts at 699 us dollars but the intel version the more higher spec one starts at 1099 us dollars
my fear is apple may raise the price of this mac mini due to the power you get inside the
potential m1x however i'm hoping that apple retain the price or even better drop the mac mini down to
999 us dollars as the m1 mac mini was actually 100 cheaper than its older intel brother than
the last generation however with a new design and everything i do not believe this will happen with
the higher spec mac mini but those are my thoughts and it is also my current wish for this new
mini however let me know your thoughts if you agree with this and also write in the comments
below what your wishes would be for the new machine well guys it's time to wrap up this
