Upgraded Mac mini now has Core 2 Duo chips
Decent value if you already own the peripherals
Dated components
Has its strengths, but it's a shame Apple has neglected to update more than just the processor
Expert review by (pcplus.co.uk)
Apple quietly upgraded its entry-level Mac desktop with Core 2 Duo chips this month. It was a long overdue bump up. The new clock speeds are 1.83GHz and 2.0GHz. It carries forward exactly the same format as before; the same shell, ports, graphics card,...

We were given the opportunity by Apple to have a first hand look at the new Mac Mini following the keynote speech by Steve Jobs. But is the new BYODKM (Bring Your Own Display, Keyboard and Mouse) desktop computer any good and will it make people...
Size, software in the box, price,
You’ll still have to buy a monitor, keyboard and mouse.
Of course, on the surface the price point is very attractive. If you are a PC user switching because you want a bit more security or you want a system that doesn't crash any more you can probably sell your tower and still use the monitor, keyboard and...

While Apple was stealing headlines with its latest iMac design, it also quietly upgraded the Mac mini with a Core 2 Duo processor, thereby completing the integration of the faster Intel chips across its whole Mac line-up
Same low price, Faster Core 2 Duo processors, Doubled RAM as standard, Enlarged hard drives
Slow graphics card, 1.83GHz model only has 2MB (L2 cache)
Faster chips, bigger drives and a better quota of RAM bring the Mac mini up to date
Expert review by : James Galbraith (techadvisor.co.uk)
It was a welcome surprise when Apple quietly updated the Mac mini to include Intel Core 2 Duo processors.
The latest Mac mini models have made some impressive gains in terms of performance, without gaining bulk or higher price tags. Still a great bargain, especially for those who already own a mouse, keyboard, and display, the Mac mini's size and price...

The Mini is here to remove the main barrier to widespread Mac adoption – high prices. Is it a revolution or just clever marketing?
Expert review by (which.co.uk)
The Apple Mac Mini is a compact desktop that packs relatively high specifications – including a quad-core Intel Core i3-8100B processor and 8GB of Ram – into a small package. But how does it cope with our tough ...

We revisit the Apple Mac mini (Late 2012) to see how it stacks up today
sleek, supreme build quality, quiet, high performance, USB 3.0
Does not support PCI cards for upgrading, no built-in optical drive
As we write in October 2013, the current Mac mini is exactly one year old, and we expect a refresh any day now. If you find an example of this generation second-hand or on Apple’s official refurb store, you won’t be disappointed by its performance or...

The new 2014 top-spec Mac mini has only half the processor cores compared to the 2012 model – but is it half the Mac?
Expert review by : Mark Hattersley and Jason Snell (macworld.co.uk)
The Mac mini gets a processor upgrade and a larger hard drive - we take a look
Decent Core 2 Duo processor produces an impressive speed boost, larger hard drive is welcome, small form factor is useful, price remains good, includes iLife '08 and remote control
Upgrading memory is difficult and expensive, integrated graphics chip rules out gaming and 3D applications, top-quality peripherals (keyboard, mouse and monitor) push price over the more powerful iMac system
We're glad to see Apple not give up on its budget option. The small size and impressive processor ensures that the mini remains a versatile system. The larger hard drive and 1GB of memory are also welcome additions. We would, however, like to see a...
