CUPERTINO, CALIFORNIA Apple today announced the new Mac mini with the all-new M6 and powerful M5 Pro, delivering a dramatic boost in performance and even more versatility in its supersmall desktop design. With M6, Mac mini now delivers up to 4x faster AI performance,1 2x faster storage2 and graphics,1 and 40 percent faster CPU performance.1 Everything on Mac mini with M6 feels incredibly fast, from everyday productivity tasks to agentic AI workflows. Mac mini with M5 Pro delivers even more pro-level performance to breeze through demanding projects, from video production to game development. And this new level of performance takes on business workflows with ease whether Mac mini is being used as a primary desktop or for always-on, deskside agentic computing. Both Mac mini models include Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6, as well as upgraded 2.5Gb Ethernet, with a 10Gb option available. Combined with the power of macOS 27, the new Mac mini is a tremendous upgrade for existing and new-to-Mac users. The new Mac mini is available for pre-order starting today, with availability beginning September 22.
“Mac mini has always been our most versatile Mac. Whether it’s being used as a home computer, powering a professional studio, or as an always-on agentic device, it’s the little Mac that can do it all,” said Johny Srouji, Apple’s chief hardware officer. “Today, we’re taking this versatility even further. With a more powerful CPU and graphics, Neural Accelerators in the GPU, and higher memory bandwidth, Mac mini with M6 delivers a whole new level of AI performance. And with up to an 18-core CPU and 20-core GPU, Mac mini with M5 Pro is an ultracompact powerhouse for complex pro workflows. We can’t wait to see all the incredible ways people will use it next.”

Mac mini is more versatile than ever, whether it’s powering a home setup, driving professional studio workflows, or serving as a capable desktop solution for agentic AI workloads in the enterprise.

Mac mini with the All-New M6

A Pint-Sized AI Powerhouse

Mac mini with M6 can power through everything from productivity tasks to creative projects, the latest AI workflows, and more. M6 features a 12-core CPU — two more cores than before — with the world’s fastest single-threaded performance, so everything feels extra snappy and responsive. A 12-core GPU, also with two more cores than before, now includes Neural Accelerators in each core for the first time on Mac mini, resulting in up to 4x faster AI performance and 2x faster graphics than Mac mini with M4.1 In addition, the all-new Dual 16-core Neural Engine delivers up to 2x faster performance than the previous generation, and combined with the advanced GPU, Mac mini is a powerhouse for all things AI.1 And with 16GB of standard unified memory configurable up to 32GB, as well as higher memory bandwidth up to 170GB/s, multitasking is faster than ever.

Mac mini with M5 Pro

Unprecedented Pro Performance

Mac mini with M5 Pro redefines what’s possible on such a small desktop, enabling pro users to take on demanding workflows like app development, video rendering, scientific simulations, and more. M5 Pro features up to an 18-core CPU with remarkable multithreaded performance and up to a 20-core GPU with an enhanced shader core and third-generation ray tracing for complex work in 3D design, VFX, and game development. With Neural Accelerators in each GPU core, M5 Pro also delivers significant gains in AI compute compared to the previous Mac mini, allowing users to tackle more advanced AI workflows like photo and video upscaling, and running large diffusion models faster than ever. Mac mini with M5 Pro supports up to 64GB of unified memory with 307GB/s of memory bandwidth, enabling users to run even larger local AI models, work with complex 3D scenes, edit ProRes RAW files, and load large custom datasets for research. And with industry-leading performance per watt, Mac mini with M5 Pro is quiet, efficient, and ideal as an always-on desktop for AI agents or creative workflows.

macOS 27 Golden Gate: An Unrivaled Experience

The new Mac mini comes to life with the upcoming macOS 27, which includes an expansive set of improvements that make the Mac even more responsive and reliable. Features users already rely on get even better. AirDrop transfers are quicker, network file browsing is faster, and start page content in Safari loads with greater speed. A rebuilt search foundation powers Spotlight, Photos, and Mail with a more comprehensive index of content that stays up to date throughout the day, making it easier than ever for users to find exactly what they are looking for. Refinements to Liquid Glass improve readability and add uniform toolbars, edge-to-edge sidebars, and more detailed app icons, enabling users to further personalize its appearance. macOS 27 also brings improvements to Apple Maps, Notes, and Podcasts.

Mac mini and the Environment

The new Mac mini was built with the environment in mind and drives progress toward Apple’s ambitious plan to be carbon neutral across its entire footprint by 2030. It is made with 50 percent recycled material overall,4 including 100 percent recycled aluminum in the enclosure and 100 percent recycled rare earth elements in all magnets. All of the electricity used to manufacture Mac mini is sourced from renewable energy, like wind and solar, across the supply chain, and Apple has also invested in enough renewable energy around the world to match the electricity customers use to power Mac mini. Like all Apple products, its paper packaging is 100 percent fiber-based and can be easily recycled at home.5
