It’s also not configurable to 10GB Ethernet, which means network speeds will top out at 1GBps.
On top of that, it supports a maximum of two external screens - the Intel Mac mini can handle three - and only one of them can be hooked via Thunderbolt. Although all of the inputs are neatly clustered at the back on a black plastic strip, as they were before, the M1 Mac mini loses a handful of ports that were available on its two-year-old Intel sibling.įor starters, the new Mac mini has just two Thunderbolt 3 USB-C slots, compared to the Intel version’s four. One of the areas where Apple cut corners to bring down the cost is the port selection. As teardowns revealed, that weight loss is the result of a more closely packed SoC, which we’ll get to in more detail later. Another minor alteration Apple made is apparent as soon as you take the new Mac mini out of its box: it’s 0.3 pounds lighter.
