The big problem is that it doesn’t represent a good deal because both MacBooks offer more power for your money. If you want an iMac this means you will be paying the same as the price of an entry-level 13in MacBook Pro, and a fraction more than the top-of-the-range MacBook Air. The 24in iMac starts at £1,249/$1,299, which is somewhat disappointing because it used to start at £1,049/$1,099.
In fact we have seen some great deals for the MacBook Air, so you don’t have to pay full price! See: Like the Mac mini you may also be able to find a discount on the MacBook Air on Apple’s Refurbished Store or at an Apple reseller. So the MacBook Air certainly looks a bargain in comparison. If you do want the 8-core GPU MacBook Air it will cost £1,249/$1,249 (and for that you’ll also get 512GB storage).Īt this point it’s worth mentioning the 24in iMac that offers the same 7-core GPU as this entry-level MacBook Air, and the same 265GB storage for £1,249/$1,299. This may not matter to you if you aren’t going to be running particularly intensive applications, but it’s worth keeping in mind. In terms of how it compares to the Mac mini, other than the higher price, the specs of this model are slightly less powerful than the Mac mini: this MacBook Air has a 7-core GPU rather than a 8-core GPU. The MacBook Air certainly isn’t cheap, but it’s Apple’s cheapest laptop and the best option for most people. $999.00 at Apple $999.99 at Best Buy Not Available at Adorama
Plus we have seen some great deals on it, so you don’t have to pay full price! See: We thoroughly recommend the Mac mini: it’s a great Mac for anyone who wants to run macOS without spending a fortune. The addition of the HDMI port means you can plug in two monitors. If you need the older USB-A then you won’t get it on an Apple laptop, unless you buy an adapter. One of the best things about the Mac mini is the collection of ports – which includes two USB-A ports as well as two Thunderbolt/USB 4 ports and an HDMI port. But nobody needs to spend a fortune on any of those peripherals, and maybe you already have a screen, keyboard and mouse. Sure this is a computer that comes without a screen, keyboard or mouse.
That’s the exact same spec as you get with the £1,299/$1,299 13in MacBook Pro for almost half the price. However, at £699/$699 it’s still the cheapest new Mac you can buy and the low price doesn’t mean that it’s not a powerful Mac.For £699/$699 you are getting an Apple M1 Chip with 8‑Core CPU and 8‑Core GPU and 256GB Storage. The mini has always been the cheapest Mac, but unfortunately it’s not as cheap as it once was: once upon a time it cost just £479/$499. $599.95 at Amazon $649.99 at Adorama Not Available at Best Buy
