For example, doubling the RAM to 16GB costs $180 with the education discount instead of the usual charge of $200.Īlso at Apple, you might find a refurbished M1 Mac Mini. It's worth noting that the Apple Store offers students an educational discount, but you'll save only $20 on the price of a new Mac Mini, though some upgrades are discounted, too. Apple's M1 system-on-a-chip integrates the CPU, GPU, RAM and other components for greater power and efficiency, but the downside of this integration is the lack of DIMM slots that would allow you to add additional RAM after purchase. And unlike in most other desktops, the Mac Mini's RAM is not user-upgradable.

One benefit of paying full price and buying from Apple is you can customize the machine and add more RAM or a higher-capacity SSD, whereas the models sold on Amazon and other retailers are fixed configurations. The more useful step-up model with twice the storage capacity, however, is only $29 off right now, which is well below the $100 and $150 discounts we have been seeing for it. Amazon is currently offering a $99 discount on the baseline model - there's an initial $40 discount with $59 added at checkout. The step-up model costs $899 and doubles the storage capacity to 512GB.
The baseline model of the M1 Mac Mini costs $699 and features 8GB of RAM and a 256GB solid-state drive. You can find discounts on the M1 MacBooks, but the Mac Mini remains the least expensive MacOS computer. The Mac Mini, along with its more mobile cousins the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro, was one of the first Apple computers to ditch Intel silicon in favor of Apple's impressive M1 processor, and new models with an updated M1 chip could arrive as early as next month.
