Apple Mac Mini M2 review: Is the cheapest Mac worth it?

Let’s cut to the chase: the Apple Mac Mini M2 is a bargain. For just $600 — $100 less than its predecessor, no less — you’re getting a compact computer that melts the competition. It has the honor of being the first desktop machine to adopt Apple’s second-generation silicon. Yet while there will no doubt be M2 iMacs, M2 Max Mac Studios, and more, the Mac Mini M2 will remain the value king. If you only want a current-generation powerhouse macOS machine for the cheapest price, then you’re probably already sold. But with an all-new M2 Pro-powered model available for more than twice the price and M2-flavored laptops offering greater flexibility, Apple’s little engine that could is a more complex proposition than its humble appearance and entry-level price tag might suggest. Find out if it’s the Mac of choice for you in this Apple Mac Mini M2 review.

About this Apple Mac Mini M2 review: I tested the M2 Mac Mini (8GB/256GB) over a period of three weeks. It was running macOS Ventura throughout the testing period. The unit was purchased by Android Authority for this review.
