Exactly what came into my mind when seeing the announcement from Apple yesterday. Thank you for your analysis,
Audio Engineer here. This new M2 Pro Mini is exactly what I need, more CPU power at a good price. I think that in comparing these two, it is easy to miss the plot – Apple has successfully brought computers that can handle heavy professional workloads down in price enough for many more people to be able to afford them. Both of these computers are really great & allow us to do a lot of things at these prices that were not possible just 2-3 years ago.
Wait for overheating videos to popup xD
But Apple showed comparison chart in Photoshop rendering I think and M1 Max was ahead of M2 Pro… You don’t consider things like higher core count, more performance cores, higher memory bandwidth etc. Single core performance doesn’t really represent real world use case as most of apps nowadays can utilize multiple cores. Mac Studio is still better value in my opinion.
Doesn’t the base Mac mini M2 pro come with 6 instead of 8 powerful cores, since 4 of the cores are efficiency cores? In that case, the base M1 max might have more multicore power than the base M2 pro.
you can buy and sell so get mac mini m2 pro now then sell to get m2 pro mac studio later, and get the higher binned one, it would pay 300 back in a month
I had a mac studio in a basket ready and configured when the new mini was released….
pressed hold on that one…
it is a dilemma
I do know that there is a conveyor of CPU development
and is it wise to pick an about to be last gen silicon option on a machine that you want to work for 5 years minimum
Great video, I feel doesn’t make sense at all to buy the maxed version of M2 Pro as you said Mac Studio is right there, since I feel HDMI 2.1 is not a big deal for me in my current use case. For me the hard decision would be M2 Pro mini or M1 Pro Macbook Pro at the current discounts…..whether I need the power of M2 Pro compared to M1 Pro. If I am on budget, I would upgrade the RAM on any of M2 mini base versions and will still be good with it.
I have the Mac Studio M1 Max. I’m also getting the Mini M2 Pro. The only reason to get the Mini over the Max Studio is if you have a situation where form factor is a consideration. I’ll be using the Mini in tight situations where portability is also a key consideration. I’m also hoping the Mini will be easier to sneak into certain countries. Otherwise, as soon as you reach the 32GB memory threshold with the Mini M2 Pro, you would be better off getting a similarly equipped Max Studio, since it gives you better performance and overall value per dollar. If you’re buying the Mini to do 8K video work, you’ve somehow managed to have caviar dreams on a super expensive beer budget.
I wouldn’t get a Mac. The SSD is solder on. When the SSD dies, you have to junk it.
I already made the decision last March when I purchased the base M1 Studio Max. If I hadn’t I’m not sure if I would wait for an M2 Studio because it might not happen with a rumored Mac Pro pending.
The base mac mini w/ m2 pro is the perfect middle ground option. Ignoring refurbished and deals since those aren’t always available when the _need_ occurs. If you needed more than m1 but not the portability of the mbp’s and not the overkill power of the mac studio, this is the product. Its slim light yet powerful enough to cater to that “pro-sumer” that isnt at full ytube/content creator status but still dabbles in said field.
I do wish that the 32 gb version came in at around $1.5/1.6k because at that price itd be a killer deal. Cause when we factor the refurbished or used market for the mac studio, yeah that upgraded m2 pro spec comes too close in price to the studio.
Regardless the mac mini is in the best position its ever been and am itching to buy it but in willing to wait and see reviews/hoping that mac studios will flood the market and be cheaper 😅🤞
Is there a monitor anyone can recommend for the mini AND an Xbox Series X?
Pro chip being more or even near the same price as the max is ridiculous. M1 vs M2 comparisons are nonsensical since everything is going to move to m2 then m3. This is apple admitting the m2 studio is getting a price increase.
wonder if m2 ultra will scale better than m1 ultra ?
I was upset that we did not get an M2 iMac. I have the M1 iMac and it is a great machine especially with 16GB of memory
Is the i9 faster? Your graph makes it look like the i9 is faster.
My guess is Apple raises the price of the next Mac Studio to make more sense in getting a mini m2 pro thats not basic spec plus im sure they know the market buying a studio usually has more budget
what would you recommend for a photographer?
The apple lineup is kind of a mess rigth now xD
