Does the latest wave of discounts suggest that a Mini refresh is imminent?

 

[justperry]

Wish we had these kind of deals in Europe, I never see any of them here.

512GB "base" model is € 1029 Incl. Tax

Costco has the same price in-store and online - $599.99 for the M1 Mac mini - 256 GB. If you buy it on the Costco Citibank Visa card you effectively get 4 years of warranty for free.

 

[raccoontail]

By far the best value in Apple's lineup - it's a lot of computer for $599. Same chip as the $1,500 iMac, $1,299.00 MBP, $1,249.00 MBA, and $1,099 iPad Pro.

Is there any profit for the reseller at these prices?

New M1X Mac Minis or Mac Mini Pros incoming?

Really highlights the dollar value Apple puts into their displays.

Is there any profit for the reseller at these prices?

Probably more profit on the mouse/keyboard/display many people buy with it.

 

[axantas]

Does the latest wave of discounts suggest that a Mini refresh is imminent?

No, it just indicates the fact, that there is not a huge demand for the 8GB models...
No 16 GB on sale anywhere I know, just the 8 GB.

 

[PinkyMacGodess]

Anyone else smell an update coming, more likely low demand...

I can only speak for Germany, but on Amazon that model is 917€ - already about 1 month now.

But MacRumors doesn't get a cut if you buy from Costco.

Nah I’m good

By far the best value in Apple's lineup - it's a lot of computer for $599. Same chip as the $1,500 iMac, $1,299.00 MBP, $1,249.00 MBA, and $1,099 iPad

There is no external display as good as the 5k 27 imac

 

[ikramerica]

I can only speak for Germany, but on Amazon that model is 917€ - already about 1 month now.

That includes VAT though right? And the extra cost passed on to you for Apple to comply with your various extended warranty laws.

I agree, but by the time you add peripherals, it’s more expensive than the Air which has the flexibility of being portable.

It suggest no such thing.

 

[Apple_Robert]

By far the best value in Apple's lineup - it's a lot of computer for $599. Same chip as the $1,500 iMac, $1,299.00 MBP, $1,249.00 MBA, and $1,099 iPad Pro.

It is a good deal if you will use the mini headless as I do. I remote in with my iPad Pro or M1 MBA. Otherwise, the actual price is much higher, unless one already has the necessary peripherals.

 

[Chiromac81]

Why are none of these deals on 1TB models???

 

[raccoontail]

I agree, but by the time you add peripherals, it’s more expensive than the Air which has the flexibility of being portable.

These days a 4K monitor, wireless keyboard and mouse, and a webcam/speaker/mic combo can be found for under $350 total. Still $300 less than a MBA with 8-core gpu. And you’ll need to buy a dongle for the MBA to get the same ports as the mini. MBA is a great portable, but not everyone needs to move their computer.

 

[powerbook911]

I think it's a great deal too. Plus, much better cooling than a MBA and no battery issues. It will last you longer and run better if doing intensive tasks.

 

[George Dawes]

Since going apple silicon apple are really getting moving updating the Mac , impressive

There is no external display as good as the 5k 27 imac

Yeah the 5K display on the 27-inch iMacs is still fantastic today.

 

[currocj]

There is no external display as good as the 5k 27 imac

False. LG’s 27MD5KL is just as good (I have 3 plus a 5K imac). It’s MSRP is $1300 but you can find it for $1100, used $800.
