The Apple Mac mini has been around since 2005 and is now in its seventh iteration. Though once considered a budget desktop option, this latest model uses some of Apple's latest and greatest chips, the M2 and the brand-new M2 Pro, making it a serious desktop replacement for any current Apple user.
The new Mac mini from the outside looks identical to the M1 version from 2020. Partly because the case is so flat (just 3.58cm), it does seem quite wide and long. This footprint hasn't changed since the Mac mini contained a CD drive, which is quite a long time (2010). From what we've seen of the internals, there is now plenty of room inside, so it could go smaller, although this would affect the unit's thermal dynamics.
