You’re getting the incredibly efficient Apple M4 chip here with the Mac mini, and it’s packed inside a tiny, 1.5 lb (0.67kg), 2 x 5 x 5-inch (50 x 127 x 127mm) frame. Not only is the price-to-power ratio off the charts with this PC, but so is the portability. It was already a fantastic value at full price, but with this $120 Cyber Monday discount, it’s a no-brainer.

If you need a new affordable work station, the M4 Mac mini is, in our opinion, the best choice on the market. The model I’ve highlighted here comes with 16GB of unified memory and a 256GB SSD, which, when combined with the powerful M4 processor, is perfect for handling productivity tasks and most creative endeavors like browsing the web, photo editing, and even some light Mac gaming. Check out the deal below on the M4 Pro model if you need a bit more power.View Deal
Processor: Apple M4 Pro
RAM: 24GB
Storage: 512GB
I only recommend this model if you’re a power user with the scratch to spare. This may surprise you, but it’s also a fantastic choice for gaming – or really anything else you can think of. The M4 Pro processor boasts unbridled performance, and 24GB of unified memory to back it up makes this Mac mini a force to be reckoned with. If you’re editing tons of video footage, working with massive LLMs, or developing the next banger triple-A game, this is the mini PC for you.View Deal
With so much competition, it’s not easy to be crowned the best mini PC you can buy. And yet the Mac mini (M4) prevails because it’s just so incredibly performant for the price tag.
It earned a rare 5 out of 5 stars in our Mac mini (M4) review from TechRadar’s Managing Editor, Core Tech, and resident Mac expert Matt Hanson because of its punchy performance, compact form factor, and unmatched value for money.
So, when you add in the $120 Cyber Monday discount? Forget about it. No Windows machine in the same price bracket even comes close.
There aren’t many drawbacks to the Mac mini at all, but there is one glaring issue that only applies to some: this PC is essentially impossible to upgrade. If you care about buying more RAM and storage as the years go on, you’re not going to be able to do that here.
But if you’d rather buy a great stock PC and not have to worry about getting under the hood, this is the perfect choice for you.

Apple’s latest 14-inch MacBook Pro is down to the lowest price I’ve ever seen it at, thanks to Cyber Monday. If you already have an excellent M4 MacBook, you don’t have a major reason to upgrade to the M5. But, if you’re still rocking an M2, or even an Intel-based MacBook, this is an excellent opportunity to get a much-needed performance boost at a very reasonable price. This configuration comes with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD, but you can double the storage to 1TB for an extra $200.
