I sprang for the Mini and I honestly have no regrets.
So you can see that I'm biased, but I was faced with a similar decision just a few months ago and I knew I'd be happy with either computer.

I've also used it with 3 1080p monitors attached and it performs the same. No beachballs, snappy opening of all windows and so forth. That's what I have open right now and the Mini's performance is excellent. I don't use graphics-intensive programs, but I do challenge the Mini by having lots of windows open at the same time, such as: Word, Scrivener, Microsoft Edge, Chrome, Mail, Apple Music, Spotify, Adobe Acrobat, Evernote, Nisus Writer Pro. It has a 512GB solid state drive and the entire computer is extremely fast-big applications like Word and Adobe Acrobat open instantly. I haven't upgraded it from the stock 8GB RAM. It's still spectacular, you'll save a lot of money, and you might be happy with the smaller display. I do suggest you have a look at an iMac with a smaller screen. For example, 32GB of RAM for the Mini is less than $140. If you get a decently configured iMac, say one with a 5K screen, you will be very happy with the fantastic display and excellent performance as well.īoth computers allow you upgrade RAM yourself and buying it from OWC is a good idea. Well, consider that if you get a decently configured Mac Mini-even with only 8GB RAM-you will congratulate yourself on having a superb machine that's an outstanding value.
