Mac mini Apple M1 chip 8GB Memory 256GB SSD MGNR3LL/A (Renewed)

I decided to by the M1 Mac Mini base model refurbished because the deal was simply too good to pass up.

While Im not a demanding performance user of Apple computer products - with the arrival of the M1 chip, I decided to upgrade my 2014 MacMini with the renewed Apple product from Amazons vendors. I immediately noticed a more snappy performance with program loading and better Bluetooth connectivity. While the pricing difference between a new Apple MacMini and Amazons renewed product was only $ 150.00 - for my application I saw no need to spend the extra money for a factory new product.

Not recommend

Worth every penny. We use it for Live Streaming and it performs very well.

Good product.

Having started on a Mac Plus many, many years ago, I am amazed at how the Mac, especially the mini, has evolved. This machine is lightning fast and all it purports to be. However, there are some idiosyncrasies. One I find interesting is that my monitor is hooked up through the HDMI port. If the mini goes in sleep mode, then when turning it back on, the monitor is a grey screen. I had to google to find out that this, indeed, happens with the M1 and how to easily fix it. Still annoying though.

The new Mac mini with the M1 Apple Silicon chip is fantastic! It has way exceeded my expectations. I have been using Macs for over 20 years and have purchased several Mini’s over that time. I have always preferred the iMacs due to better performance but this M1 Mini is great. The 8GB version has been fine for my basic computing needs. If I was running video or photo editing or more intensive apps I would have opted fir the 16GB version. This “renewed” one from Amazon looks brand new. I just purchased a new one and then got this renewed one. I can’t tell the difference between them. I consider it an absolute value! Thanks Amazon!

no problems

Got tempted because of the price and didnt need a brand new recent M2 model.

I looked long and hard before moving to an Apple platform. All reviews said this product was the way to comfortably into the Apple Ecosphere and the advantages of the RISC technology. I took the step and do not regret choosing this product.
