Apple plans to launch new Mac mini models with M4 and M4 Pro chips “between late 2024 and early 2025,” according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman. Depending on this time frame, a new Mac mini could take between six and twelve months.
With the M4 series of chips, the Mac mini should get a significant jump in CPU performance compared to existing models with the M2 series. The M4 chips are also rumored to have a faster neural engine for AI tasks.
