Dislikes: (A stretch I know) My only gripe is the bluetooth headphones can be shaky. In my experience it happens every week and lasts maybe 10-15 seconds where the audio isn't great. But alot of electronics have his issue
It's the end of 2023 and I recommend this computer to anyone and everyone in the market for a computer. This compact machine does 90% of what the top tier computers can do but for $500. By no means is this a budget device at all. Unless you're doing 3D modeling, video editing with alot of after effects, rendering 4K video, or always working on the go; then this is perfect for everyday use and more. Other computers have come out since 2020 including the M2 Mac Mini and just recently the M3 Macbooks, but I still strongly recommend this device.
My Personal Use
I've had this device since the end of 2020. It has been my daily driver for the last 3 years. My first Mac. I've used this device for building websites, running ads and small businesses along with admin tasks, YouTube, some light gaming, Youtube, Netflix etc. At the highest usage it was about 10-12 hours per day. In 3 years I've had 3 hiccups from having multiple desktops open for coding websites, editing photos in photoshop and affinity photo, multiple spreadsheets and having over a dozen chrome-tabs open which is my normal workflow. 3 times in 3 years. I'm not planning on upgrading anytime soon but if I do, it will be the Mac Mini Pro or Mac Studio solely for the overkill memory and multi terabyte storage options.
ALL YOU NEED IS: Keyboard, Mouse, Monitor. But feel free to trick it out.
