"Apple traditionally avoids discounts and maintains full pricing on its official website and retail stores, treating Black Friday like any other day to preserve its premium brand image. Amazon doesn't share that restraint and just slashed the price of the brand-new Mac mini M4 with 256GB storage to $479 from the usual $599, which marks a record low on one of the most powerful compact desktops currently available."
"The M4 chip brings a 10-core CPU and a 10-core GPU that handle everything from coding and video editing to casual gaming and AI tasks without breaking a sweat. You get 16GB of unified memory, different from traditional RAM because it allows both the CPU and GPU to draw from the same memory pool, eliminating bottlenecks that slow down graphics-intensive work."
"The 256GB SSD provides fast storage for your operating system and applications, though you'll want external drives for large media libraries since that capacity fills up in a hurry with 4K video projects or extensive photo collections. Built for Apple Intelligence, on-device AI processing keeps your data private while delivering features like intelligent writing assistance and advanced photo search without sending information to cloud servers."
Apple maintains full pricing and rarely discounts products, while Amazon cut the Mac mini M4 256GB price to $479 from $599, a $120, record-low reduction. The compact five-by-five-inch Mac mini houses an M4 chip with a 10-core CPU and 10-core GPU and includes 16GB of unified memory that reduces CPU/GPU bottlenecks. The 256GB SSD is fast for system and apps but will fill quickly with 4K video or large photo libraries, so external storage is recommended. On-device Apple Intelligence enables private AI features. The redesigned chassis adds front USB-C and headphone jack; Thunderbolt ports support multiple displays.
