Apple Plans New Mac Mini Launch Ahead of September iPhone Event
Apple is preparing to launch a new Mac mini desktop, its first update in nearly two years, possibly within days ahead of a September event unveiling the iPhone 18 Pro and foldable iPhone Ultra. The new Mac mini may feature either M5 or M6 processors, though the final choice is unconfirmed. The update follows strong demand driven by AI applications and ongoing memory chip shortages affecting availability. This launch is part of a broader product refresh including new Apple Watches, AirPods 5, and an OLED iPad mini, with some manufacturing expanding to the US.
