Apple Mac Mini (M6) Review: For the AI Curious

The 2026 Mac Mini keeps its port layout: two USB-C 3.0, a headphone jack, a power indicator, three Thunderbolt 4, HDMI 2.1, Ethernet, and a power adapter port. It supports two 5K 120 Hz or three 4K external displays. The power button is on the rear left corner, and there is no front-facing SD card slot. Inside, the new M6 chip uses a 2-nm process, contains 46 billion transistors, 12 CPU cores, and delivers 21% single-thread and 36% multi-thread performance gains over the M4, but is 10% slower in single-thread than the M5 Pro.
