Amazon has spoiled Apple’s week of Mac announcements by sharing details of the new Mac Mini a bit early. The listing has been pulled but MacRumors managed to grab a few screenshots first.

The one tiny image of the new silver Mac Mini shows what appear to be a headphone jack and two front-facing USB-C ports, presumably with at least Thunderbolt 4 support. It’s available with a base or Pro version of the new M4 chipset, with up to 14 CPU cores, 20 GPU cores, 64GB of memory, and 8TB of storage. The backside ports will remain a mystery for now.

The M4 will be a significant jump from the M2 found in current Mac Minis, last refreshed in January 2023. That boost in power should help with current and future Apple Intelligence processing, jumping from 15.8 TOPS to 38 TOPS according to previous reporting by Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman.

Amazon’s pulled Mac Mini comparison chart.

Gurman also notes that the new smaller Mini approaches the size of an Apple TV streamer. And judging by the side-by-side with the Mac Studio, it certainly looks small which should make it a very compelling Mac in terms of size and power.

The Mac Mini is rumored to be getting an official announcement later today with full details and pricing so stay tuned.
