So we've had the new macbooks announced at the october unleashed event however there was no
site of the more powerful mac mini with those new m1 pro and m1 max chipsets well today i want to
talk about a new report when in 2022 we'll be able to get our hands on it we'll also uncover
the mac mini m1 pro and m1 max release date and price and other expected features
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 grey 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 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 mac mini and in my next video
i may feature your comment and also discuss my thoughts around it so let's get started with that
new report of when we could possibly get our hands on that next tier more powerful mac mini with the
m1 pro and m1 max inside so report is coming from russ young who has informed from mac rumors that
the larger imac will be coming out in early 2022 now to stick with me with this one this new larger
imac will have the m1 pro and the m1 max inside it is likely that at the same event where they
will launch this new imac that the new mac mini will be launched at the same time when we think
about this this is very logical because we've just had the apple unleashed event where we got the new
macbooks and these are basically considered the laptops or the notebook events so now it's time
for the pro desktops to get some special treatment in an event last year in 2020 in november time we
got the announcement of the brand new m1 chipset and we've got the macbook air and the macbook pro
included but then in 2021 at the spring-loaded event we got the redesigned imac 24-inch model so
if we apply again the same logic it's very logical that we will see the new larger imac and also that
more specked up map mini at the event 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 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 300 000 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't actually report them to youtube but enough of that
like i said over 300 000 subscribers is the only time i'm going to be announcing who the winner is
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 release date we've already spoken about a report from ross young on this channel where we've
spoken about the specs up larger imac and the mac mini will be coming out in early 2022. but when
in early 2022 you may ask well again applying the same rules with the m1 chipset where we got a map
air and also that 13-inch macbook pro in november 2020 and then we got the new imac 24 inch model
announced in april time in 2021 is most likely the same case will happen now so we've just had the
new 14 inch and 16 inch macbook pros in late 2021 with the m1 pro and the m1 max put inside it so
we're expecting the more spec'd up mac mini to be announced in an event in march or april 2022 and
this is following the trend of the last 12 months so based on this a release date would be very near
after this event time so this could probably be around the end of march time however if there
is still a chip shortage out there and it's not improved really then the event might get delayed
april time and we might not be able to get a hand on the mac mini until may 2022 however the moment
we hear 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 the 2022 mac mini is expected to give us and the prices
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
we'll 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 one terabyte two terabytes four terabytes and
eight terabytes of storage then on top of that as well it will have that brand new m1 pro or
m1 max 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 a 32
core gpu option depending if you pick m1 pro or m1 max so for ram next 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 the 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 with 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
video so if you have enjoyed watching it please make sure to like the video and at the same time
