History of receipt. I got this mac mini along with a mouse, keyboard and pad, mouse and keyboard from the same company, Logiteck, this mac mini with an M2 chip and a 10 core processor, as well as 512 GB of memory, this is more than enough for work, but not for games, as they weigh 100 or more GB, and this is a lot. it has 2 outputs with hdmi 2.1, 3 with type c, 1 for cable internet connection. its cooling is from below, so the air comes out through the bottom, it heats up very much only if you play demanding games, otherwise the mac mini is cold as ice. however, if you play for 30 minutes it gets so hot that it might just turn off, so you need to cool it down and let it rest. this mac mini is all for work, it's designed for work, and it does a good job of it, it can even run on unreal engine 5, low fps but it works. it also has a good SSD.

verification in practice. in practice it's as good as in plan, it's very good, on us you can watch 4k movies, play 2k games at high settings, render and create models. all this makes it almost universal, it is small, so you can put it in your bag and take it to another apartment or office and work there. this mac mini has been upgraded, it has a new m2 pro chip, it's meaner than the 2022 macbook, it can pull 4k, so mac mini is the perfect choice if you just want to work and watch movies in good quality while playing old undemanding games.

3. conclusion.

this mac mini is the best mac in terms of price/performance ratio, so it will be very useful if you are going for the best computer with a not so high price. however, it has its own problems, one of them is the speaker, it has a very bad sound. the second problem is memory, in the regular version 215 GB of memory is negligible even for work, if you want 1 TB or more, then you will have to pay much more, $ 500 or more. the 1 TB version also has an improved SSD, it is 2 times faster than 512 GB and 214. The next problem is heating, it can be 100 *, and this is a lot. these are the biggest problems, there are others, but they are not so serious. in the end, I can say that this computer is good only for studying, off my work, and not demanding games, it is not suitable for professional work.

you can buy this mac mini on the original site, there are choices with models, namely: 512 gb, 1 tb and so on, improved ssd or normal, cpu memory, 8,16,24, and with a processor of 10 cores. the better, the more expensive, so if you want the most expensive version, then you have to pay 2 times more than for the regular version.
