      If you use it for anything related to music or sound, you will know why need a headphone jack.

    Lol an iMac with 2 ports? Only Apple would do such a thing. ????????

    I think the Mac Mini with the M4 Pro chip is a great deal.

      Actually they have way more horsepower than any equivalent windows laptop, and way better battery life.

    If we see these three days of apple Mac announcement, we can clearly see how copilot pc impacts on Apple
    And one last thing I thank apple is upgrading ram for AI processing on device

    Looking at why one Mac skipping M4 upgrade, but still retaining Mac Studio with M2 Max, it’s evident that Apple not convinced M4 is a worthy upgrade. Benchmarking we see are due to added performance cores or extra RAM.

  9. @manoharmeka999

    October 30, 2024 at 8:30 pm

    Can you explain this????

    Upgrading from
    Macbook Pro with M4 10 core cpu & 10 core gpu chip; 16 GB RAM, 512 GB RAM
    to
    Macbook Pro with M4 Pro 12 core cpu & 16 core gpu chip; 24 GB RAM, 512 GB RAM
    costs $300

    However the upgrade from
    Mac Mini with M4 10 core cpu & 10 core gpu chip; 16 GB RAM, 512 GB RAM
    to
    Mac Mini with M4 Pro 12 core cpu & 16 core gpu chip; 24 GB RAM, 512 GB RAM
    costs $700

      The mac mini is an entry level device that comes with an entry level M4 and is has a lower starting price (you will pay a premium to upgrade it to the M4 Pro chip). The Macbook Pro is designed to come with an M4 Pro and starts at a higher base price (even if you decide to put a basic M4 chip in it), so the price increase is not as drastic..

    We’re on M4 silicon chip, yet Apple can’t support eGPU nor their baseline chips support 64 GB. Wonder what kind of architecture is that.

    2 ports by default on the iMac is criminal!! That desk view feature is neat though

    Finally jumping on a Mac with this generation. Mac Mini base model, but I never bothered before because 8GB is just too little and the disgusting premiums on small upgrades to RAM and storage put me off.

    thunderbolt 5 is promising- waiting for some upgraded pro motion studio displays now before i pull the trigger on an m4 mini or macbook pro

  17. @TheFrugalAudiophile

    October 30, 2024 at 9:02 pm

    I am still quite happy with my M2, Mac mini, but that new M4 is pretty awesome looking! It may tempt me to upgrade in the near future.

    MacBook Air didn’t get the M4.. that’s a bad Apple. Nasty company.

  23. @RaindoggTV

    October 30, 2024 at 9:23 pm

    I don’t get why they are waiting to update the whole line to M4. Just stick the chip in it for god sake!!!!
