As of Aug. 18, you can get the Apple 2024 Mac Mini (M4, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD) for $499, down from $599. That's a 17% discount and a $100 savings. While it hit a slightly lower price of $469 during Prime Day, this is still a pretty good deal for a brand-new desktop.

The Mac Mini is a five-by-five-inch desktop computer (it kind of looks like an Apple TV box). It’s designed to sit right next to your monitor and has several connections, including an HDMI port, gigabit Ethernet ports, and a front-facing USB-C port. With an M4 chip, this compact machine delivers super-fast performance, and it’s built for Apple Intelligence, so you can get you write, create, and organize faster than ever before.

Plus, if you already have an iPhone or iPad, the Mac Mini fits right in, so you can send messages, take FaceTime calls, and transfer files between all your devices.
