Apple’s M6 Mac mini is the ultimate budget 4K video editing studio — and it just hit its first $120 discount
We're expecting great things from the new Apple Mac mini M6, which just got its first ever discount at Amazon. For creators, it's still the best Apple mini PC.
Apple's latest Mac mini boasts the new M6 chip and has seen its first discount from Amazon. Designed for creators and small business marketers, this compact, quiet desktop is perfect for home, office, or studio projects. Priced at $780 (down from $900), it features a 12-core CPU and GPU, three Thunderbolt 4 ports, Wi-Fi 7, and support for up to three external displays.
The Mac mini's small size measures 5 x 5 inches, weighs about 1.5 pounds, and includes HDMI, 2.5Gb Ethernet, and two USB-C ports on the back and front, respectively.
Renowned for its performance, the Mac mini has been praised for its video editing capabilities. Handbrake testing revealed that the M6 model completed a 25GB 4K video transcode to 1080p in just 2 minutes and 45 seconds, significantly reducing the time compared to its predecessor. The device excels in handling local AI workloads, video editing, and gaming with ease.
At $779.99, the Mac mini M6 is $119 (13%) cheaper than its original price, marking one of the earliest discounts seen upon launch. While Apple rarely discounts its desktops so soon after release, this deal helps bridge the gap between the M4 model and the new M6 machine. This budget 4K video editing and photo editing powerhouse is ideal for those seeking a stylish, performance-driven, and compact solution. However, creative professionals working on theatrical-grade productions may find the Mac Studio a better fit.
