After testing out the Mac mini M2 for a few weeks last year, it was clear that Apple’s mini PC was in need of an upgrade. While it did well enough with web browsing and basic tasks, it was easier than I thought to utilize all 8GB of RAM on the base model.
Fortunately, back in November of last year, Apple unveiled the new Mac mini M4 which unlike its predecessor, came with 16GB of RAM instead of 8GB on the base model. Alongside Cupertino’s more powerful M4 chip, this extra memory made a huge difference when it came to multitasking and with heavier workloads like video editing.
