But they’re all ultra-wide and they’re all 4K, two things I know I definitely want for my Mac mini. Now, these monitors are all pretty pricey – none retail for less than $500. Dell UltraSharp 34 Curved USB-C Monitor.Samsung CHG90 49-Inch Curved Ultrawide Monitor.Me? I’m currently weighing up four potential monitors for my Mac mini – and they’re all pretty pricey, as you can see below: But it also means you can build and customize your setup to your exact needs.
You WILL need to buy these things separately. The Mac mini is cheaper but once you factor in costs for a monitor, it’ll be just as expensive as an iMac – depending on what monitor you go with, of course.Įssentially, what you get with a Mac mini is just a desktop computer without any peripherals – things like a monitor and a mouse and keyboard. You get everything you need in one box, so you can get started right away. They don’t want the hassle of buying a monitor, a keyboard, and a mouse. And that’s fine because it means you can swap things around, try new tech, and generally customize your office setup to your exact needs.Īnd yet, I think this is the main thing that puts people off from getting a Mac mini. You need to purchase these things separately. This is because you ONLY get a computer in the box there’s no display, mouse, or keyboard. The Mac mini is also Apple’s cheapest computer too.

I know there’s a bigger iMac Pro coming with a larger display. And, worst of all, I really don’t like the way it looks – it just looks weird. The display on the new M1 iMac is too small for my needs. But then I actually saw what Apple launched. Prior to the launch of Apple’s new iMac range, I was pretty much set on getting one of them as soon as they landed. As computers go, it has been the best desktop computer I have ever owned. And earlier this week, I finally decided to buy one. Should you buy an M1 Mac mini? I’ve been debating this question for the best part of nine months.
