The new Mac mini will resemble a miniature Mac Studio
An Amazon listing for the 24-inch iMac contained a now-removed comparison chart that included Apple’s unannounced smaller Mac mini with M4 and M4 Pro.
Apple’s week of announcements does a great job keeping its new products in the news cycle for longer, but the strategy may have backfired. A comparison chart on Amazon showed the unreleased Mac mini and some of its specs, but has since been removed.
The listed specs include an up to 14-core CPU, up to 20-core GPU, up to 64GB of RAM, and up to 8TB of storage. Apple is only offering the new Mac mini in silver.
The tiny image for the Mac mini shows a Mac Studio-like enclosure that’s a bit taller by proportion to its length than the Mac mini is, but it is clearly much smaller too. Previous rumors suggested the device could be closer to the size of an Apple TV set-top box.

Dots can be seen on the front, which may indicate two USB ports and an indicator light. However, there isn’t a spot for the SD card slot present on the Mac Studio.
Apple’s week of announcements is expected to continue Tuesday with the updated MacBook Pros with M4 and M4 Pro. The redesigned Mac mini is expected to be revealed on Wednesday.
