This week in Apple news we saw the company launch two new MacBooks as well as a new Mac Mini. The computers are powered by the new M1 chip, an Arm-based processor developed in-house. This is the biggest shift for Apple's PC division in many years.

Although the Mac Mini is the cheapest Mac that Apple sell, its £649 starting price can be deceptive in terms of value, even though, on paper, it's several hundred dollars cheaper than the cheapest iMac. If you already have a suitable monitor, keyboard and mouse, that's fine. Mac mini comes with all-flash storage — up to a whopping 2TB SSD 18 for all your photo and video libraries, files, and apps. And with speeds up to 3.4GB/s, 19 apps and files launch and load in an instant.

The top Apple news stories of the past week:
- New MacBooks announced: On Tuesday, Apple launched two new MacBooks: the new MacBook Air and a new 13-inch MacBook Pro. Both laptops are powered by the new M1 chipset, which is built on Arm technology (our own Gary Sims will explain what that means for you). This is a dramatic shift for Apple away from x86-based systems and represents the biggest change to its PC business in years.
- New Mac Mini lands, too: Along with the two new MacBooks, Apple also launched a new Mac Mini. At an introductory price of $699, it is now the cheapest way to jump into the macOS ecosystem. As with the new MacBooks, it is also powered by the Arm-based M1 chip.
- AirTags and AirPods Studio MIA: Lots of analysts expected Apple to also launch other products this week, specifically the GPS trackers AirTags and the over-ear headphones AirPods Studio. However, that didn't happen. It is now unlikely that we'll see either of those products in 2020.
- AirPods Studio sort of revealed: A new icon in the iOS 14.3 beta suggests the design elements of the rumored AirPods Studio over-ear headphones. The design lines up with leaked renders we've seen over the past year or so. Check it out here.
- Apple launches and pulls tons of software due to server issues: This week, Apple launched a ton of new software, including betas of iOS, tvOS, and more. It also launched macOS Big Sur. However, some serious server issues were wreaking havoc on multiple Apple services. In response, Apple temporarily stopped all updates until it could get things under control. It wasn't a great start to the Big Sur launch.
- iPhone 12 Studio service launches: Last weekend, Apple launched a new service called iPhone 12 Studio. The service is an extension of the Apple Store that allows buyers to customize MagSafe cases and wallets to see how various color combos will look on their phones.
- Reviewers criticize poor battery life of iPhone 12 Mini: Lots of people are excited to start getting their iPhone 12 Mini, but early reviews are tempering expectations. While early reviews praise the device overall, the small form-factor apparently creates poor battery life.
- Apple suspends business with Pegatron: Long-time Apple supplier Pegatron is in hot water this week after Apple found it repeatedly violated Apple's labor ethics rules. The Taiwanese supplier then went to great lengths to cover up the violations. Good on Apple for taking a stance, here.

I always hear people saying that the Mac Pro is the Mac of choice for musicians but, as a hobbyist, I simply can't justify the expense. I'm tempted by a Mac Mini, as I already have a decent screen, but am concerned that it won't be able to cope with the requirements of audio recording. What are the pros and cons?

SOS contributor Mark Wherry replies: While it used to be the case that a high-end computer like the Mac Pro was essential for running music and audio applications, these days it's really hard to purchase a system that will be incapable of such tasks. It's all a matter of how many audio tracks, instruments and effects you need the computer to handle. Among the most important factors to consider in determining such handling are the type and speed of the processor, the amount of memory and the speed of the hard disk.The updated Mac Mini comes with a 2.4GHz processor, 2GB RAM and a 320GB hard drive as standard, making it perfectly capable of running decent numbers of tracks.Photo: Apple

Since the first Power PC-based model was introduced (see the full review at /sos/may05/articles/applemacmini.htm), the Mac Mini has established itself as a basic-yet-capable studio computer. The current range features Intel Core 2 Duo processors, and the 2007 MacBook Pro (which, with a 2.4GHz processor, had similar performance capabilities) gives us a rough guide of the performance you can expect: using Logic Pro 7, this was capable of running 150 PlatinumVerb instances, 54 Space Designers and 512 EXS24 voices (with the filter enabled). Today's baseline Mac Mini also has a 2.4GHz processor, so those figures should be roughly comparable.

When it comes to memory, the 2GB supplied in the entry-level Mac Mini should be just enough to get you started. But you'll find life rather more comfortable with 4GB, especially if you want to work with sample‑based instruments. It's worth bearing in mind that 8GB is the maximum amount of memory supported by the Mac Mini.
In terms of storage, the basic Mac Mini comes with a 360GB drive. But, perhaps more crucially, this internal drive runs at 5400rpm — slower than those used in most other Macs — which will limit the number of audio tracks you can play back simultaneously. As a guide, you should expect to be able to handle approximately 50 to 60 mono 16-bit tracks at 44.1kHz. However, it is possible to connect a faster drive for audio, thanks to the Mac Mini's built-in FireWire 800 port — assuming you're not already planning to use this port for an audio interface, of course, since daisy‑chaining devices isn't always possible.

Another important factor when considering the Mac Mini, and one that might initially sound a little bizarre, is price. Although the Mac Mini is the cheapest Mac that Apple sell, its £649starting price can be deceptive in terms of value, even though, on paper, it's several hundred dollars cheaper than the cheapest iMac. If you already have a suitable monitor, keyboard and mouse, that's fine. But if you factor in the cost of these required devices to even the cheapest Mac Mini, the price difference between that and the low-end iMac starts to narrow considerably.
In a nutshell, the Mac Mini remains a basic, yet capable machine that provides a good starting point. However, in many ways, the entry-level iMac represents better value for those on a budget, especially if you see yourself quickly outgrowing the Mini's capabilities.
