Apple Mac mini with M6 and M5 Pro: Overview
Apple’s new Mac mini comes in two versions, one with the M6 chip and one with the M5 Pro chip. Both fit more power into the same compact desktop design.
- M6 chip performance: A 12-core CPU and 12-core GPU add Neural Accelerators for the first time, giving up to 4x faster AI performance and 2x faster graphics than M4.
- Faster everyday computing: Storage runs up to 2x faster and the CPU is 40 percent quicker, so apps launch fast and big files transfer with less waiting.
- M5 Pro for demanding work: An 18-core CPU and 20-core GPU handle video editing and game development, with Neural Accelerators speeding up AI tasks as well.
- Built for connections: Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6, and Thunderbolt let several Mac mini units link together to run large AI models on your own network.
The new Mac mini pairs serious speed with a small size, making it a smart desktop upgrade.
