Apple has refreshed its lineup of compact desktop computers this week, introducing updated versions of two of its smallest machines. The new Mac Mini now features either an M6 chip or an M5 Pro processor, while the Mac Studio has been outfitted with the latest M5 Ultra chip. However, potential buyers should note that both models come with increased price tags, marking a $100 jump compared to their predecessors. Pre-orders are available now, though customers will need to wait until September 22nd for delivery.
The price increase represents a notable change for Apple’s compact computer offerings, which have traditionally appealed to users seeking powerful performance in a space-saving form factor. The new chips promise enhanced capabilities for professional and consumer users alike, though the higher entry points may influence purchasing decisions for budget-conscious customers.
Beyond the Mac updates, this week’s tech announcements include several other notable products. HMD has unveiled a retro-style Nokia phone that functions as a portable charger, while Wyze introduced a new security camera with an innovative privacy feature that physically tilts its lens downward when activated. Garmin also launched its latest smartwatch models with advanced display technology and extended storage capacity.
