Watch Apple show off the M4 Mac Mini in its reveal video

The video begins with John Ternus, Apple’s Senior Vice President of Engineering, putting the finishing touches (literally) on the new desktop device. He says the device is “even smaller” as it is only six inches long and wide.

The video then cuts to Mac Mini product manager Shloka Kini, who similarly says the M4 device comes with a “major performance boost in an incredibly small design.” Kini claims the Mac Mini is up to six times faster than the best-selling PC in its price range, but 1/20th the size.

The smaller (and more powerful) Mac Mini offers 16GB of RAM and has a starting price of $599 with the standard M4 chip, but that price rises to $1,399 for the M4 Pro model. Tim Millet, Apple’s vice president of platform architecture, says the M4 Pro comes with up to 14 CPU cores and 20 GPU cores, making it 1.6 times faster than the M2 Pro. We also get a glimpse of some Apple Intelligence updates coming to Mac devices, like the redesigned Siri and AI-powered writing tools.

This probably won’t be the last Mac-related announcement we see from Apple this week. The company is also rumored to release an M4-powered MacBook Pro.
