What Are the Rumored Features of the New M4 Mac Mini?

Question

What anticipated modifications and design changes can we expect in the so-called M4 Mac Mini?

Answer 1

According to leaks, the next M4 Mac Mini could be the biggest enhancement ever with a sorely needed redesign that has not been seen in nearly fourteen years. This device is expected to be offered in two models: one featuring M4 chip, the other featuring M4 Pro chip. Sources claiming to have seen the new design claim that it is much more compact, closely akin to the size of the Apple TV, and incorporating multiple ports such as three USB-C ports, an HDMI port and a 3.5mm jack. The M4 Pro edition is expected to have extra USB-C ports on the front panel. There are even suggestions that the new mac mini could also be sensibly priced and easily within range of target consumers.

I will be buying the new Mac mini M4 Pro and I'm so glad I waited! I'm a little bummed about losing a USB port over my 2018 Intel Mac mini, because I still use a legacy scanner and UPS, but I can get adapters. Not keen on using the front USB-C ports for anything that has to stay connected, but I'll get over it. Really wish Apple would keep the four USB-C ports on the back. I travel with my Mac mini and use my 12.9" iPad Pro as the main display with Luna Display, so the reduced size is very welcome!

I want to see Mac Mini M4 Pro/Max that can run off a powerbank. That would make me buy it. And then get me MacBook Pro with M5 for next year.

New design M4/M4 Pro Mac Mini!!! LETS GOOOOO!!!!
I need to replace my Base spec M1 Mac Mini. Think I'll upgrade to M4 Pro Mac Mini.
I wonder if Apple Intelligence has anything to do with the bump in RAM on the base models.

Are you sure these were leaks? They sound more like rumors.
