Mark Gurman of Bloomberg says the Mac mini will get a new version this week
The mini is Apple’s desktop computer. It’s just a small gray box between the iMac for home users and the company’s PCs for professionals.
It is said that the new mini is getting smaller and will soon be about the size of an Apple TV set-top box. It will have two ports on the front and three on the back of some types. It will enable the ray tracing graphics method for the first time. Sources close to Gurman say this will be “the most impressive Mac yet to use Apple’s in-house silicon.”
Two new types of the Mac mini are said to be among a bunch of new Apple products that will be released this week. A 24-inch iMac, a 16-inch MacBook Pro, and 14-inch MacBook Pro models will also be in the line-up. All of them will use Apple’s M4 chip.
One more thing: Gurman says that Apple’s reported smart home display will be about the size of two iPhones placed next to each other, with a small base that looks like the iMac G4 and has speakers built in.
