The Mac mini with the M4 chip delivers strong performance for creative students handling most tasks. The unit excels for single-camera 4K workflows and social media content creation, and outperforms for less demanding work. The model is available at multiple price points, with the $689 version currently reduced by $110 at Amazon. Upgrading to the model with twice the storage offers better longevity and value for students who want an investment that lasts beyond studies. Budget-conscious users planning to store large files externally can opt for the $499 entry-level model.
I loved my time using the Mac mini. It's not only a beautifully designed computer, with its M4 chip we found the Mac mini to be everything that a creative student would need. OK, this is not for video editing students who are working with multiple cameras in 8K. But if you're working with single camera at 4K, or primarily for social media, this is more than capable.
Although selling at $689, this Mac mini model has got $110 off at Amazon. For me it represents a better value proposition for those wanting to invest in a computer that'll last well beyond your studies. Of course, if you're planning on putting all your big files on a speedy external hard drive, then the $499 model is just fine.
