Best Buy is offering a one‑day price cut on the base‑model Mac Mini powered by the M4 chip, equipped with 16 GB of RAM and a 256 GB SSD. The usual $799 tag is reduced to $649, making it a more attractive option compared to the newer M6 version that Amazon has been selling for $779.99 after a drop from $899.
When the M4 Mac Mini debuted in 2024, it launched at $599 and was praised for its value. Today’s sale price is only $50 above that original launch figure, rather than the $200 premium it usually carries, presenting a solid opportunity for anyone looking to spend as little as possible on a current‑generation Mac desktop.
Both the M4 and M6 models share a nearly identical design and port layout, and each requires users to provide their own keyboard, mouse, monitor, webcam and other accessories. If you’re torn between the two chips, check out colleague Antonio’s review of the M6 Mac Mini, which may help you decide whether the extra $130 is worth it.
