computer and this time it has M2 it looks pretty much the same on the outside it's a Mac Mini we got some specs this is the eight Gigabyte model 256 gig storage Encore CPU 10 core GPU that's not the pro one which is actually kind of cool that's a new product the previous Mac Mini did not have a pro you had to go to the Mac Studio but ours we expect it with 10 gig internet so it's not here yet this is a very form-fitting box actually I guess I should use the Apple thing look at that you wouldn't want to ship this without some extra foam because the box is not doing anything it seems like an unnecessary piece of plastic I'm not gonna lie like what are they protecting does this get scratched easily it doesn't seem like it all right what else is in the Box here propaganda cable I pity the person in the Apple Factory who has to like assemble these paper things this is awful and that's it no power brick wow that's a big apple sticker whoa let's just upgrade this thing right now look at how much more Apple we're gonna have oh oh that's brutal that's brutal I'm sorry that was not intentional it's just so sticky on the outside we have a beautiful Apple sticker and logo on the front oh yeah there's a little power LED there side nothing other side also nothing but on the back ooh power button our power jack one gig Ethernet you can also spec it with 10 if you want got two Thunderbolt four ports HDMI two USB a ports headphone jack and a little cooling vent if you upgrade to the pro model you get four Thunderbolt ports like the Max studio but other than that it's the same i o as last time I think it's HDMI 2.1 now so we're gonna have to try that later with the TV over there um the specs page was not super clear about that it doesn't say HDMI 2.1 but it does say you can do 4K I think 144 no 4K 240 I thought it said and 8K 60 at the very least it's not like rubbery at all so it doesn't doesn't keep it in place you know like you could curl with this thing very Sleek I think the top is actually oh yeah yeah it's got It's got more friction on the top than the bottom it's really bad it's like it's even got bubbles underneath it I'm usually the kind of guy that leaves it to troll you but it's actually bugging me at this point so I'm gonna oh so much better in terms of the internal specs of course the CPU is an M2 instead of an M1 you can go up to 24 gigs of RAM instead of 16 you do get the nice prores encode and decode engine on the M2 the max storage is still two terabytes on the non-pro but if you go up to the M2 pro version you can go up to a 12 core CPU or 19 core GPU you get 200 gigabytes per second of memory bandwidth instead of 100 you can do up to 32 gigs of RAM and up to eight terabytes of storage any of the models can be spec with 10 gig internet on the standard port or you can use a dongle with the Thunderbolt that works too other than that pretty much the same I guess we should turn it off but now before I tell you about our sponsor secret lab their chairs are designed to keep you comfortable for those long nights of work and play and their Titan Evo 2022 series chair offers four-way lumbar support comes with a magnetic memory foam head pillow and is offered in different upholsteries like hybrid leatherette soft weave fabric and Napa leather best of all a five-year extended warranty is included along with a 49 day return policy so you're covered if anything goes wrong head to the link down in the description to check out secret lab today the cool thing about the pro one which we haven't gotten yet is it has the same i o as the Mac Studio and that was like kind of one of their things it's got so much connectivity this one has two ports but the pro has four and that's that's the same one thing I would say about these it would be cool if Apple it would be cool it would be cool if Apple added like two type c ports to the front like not everyone wants to plug everything in the back especially if you're charging your mouse from the bottom of the Mouse ah something else I didn't mention this Mac Mini has Wi-Fi 6E which can do like above gigabit speed so despite the Ethernet port being gigabit you can do like 1.5 gig on the Wi-Fi so the Wi-Fi might actually be faster than Ethernet on this particular one maybe I should charge this no Andrew it looks stupid hi Apple it's stupid it's so stupid slight correction the studio does technically have more i o it has two Thunderbolts on the front and an SD card reader so there's a little bit more which is what they should do on this thing but then how would they sell the studio all right the first thing I want to see is this wi-fi 60 is it fast is it truly brutally fast we don't have any Wi-Fi 60 devices connected so theoretically this should be very fast wow truly astonishing not not that fast I mean the AP is like pretty far it's in the ceiling probably 20 feet away 700 megabits pretty good for Wi-Fi okay so Wi-Fi 6E pretty sick I think if you had your AP closer you could do even better I personally have tested Wi-Fi 6E at like one and a half gigabit which is the double even what we had here so it's fast though I like that they're including it I hope the new iPhone has it too it's fine it's you know one and a half gigabytes a second both ways it's fine to go to the 512 gig that would be faster you're looking at you know an extra 200 so for the price it's not bad let's try pass Mark yeah so it's like 6.8 6.9 percent I mean there's a lot less samples but I mean for for one year seven percent it's not bad what score did we get 16 000 wow the thing to consider is that this M2 Chip is going to be in a bunch of different devices so a bunch of the samples for this could have been done in a like a MacBook Air that doesn't have additional Cooling and that could hurt what I'm curious about is if this thing thermal throttles they may just testing endurance I think this is the one yeah this one okay cool I believe this is made by the same guy yeah it's made by the same guy that makes TG Pro which is a really great app for monitoring your Mac you can see all the different statistics we do have a license don't worry if we bought many he also gave us some but I don't want to type in the server credentials so I'm just going to use the trial don't get mad at me I love you this is obviously not a super realistic test because it is just cranking the CPU at 100 but it will be interesting to see if it does throttle we're only at 60 degrees I suspect that this will not throttle easily it's still at the minimum 1700 RPM speed doesn't really seem like it's getting any hotter which is great so you're at least getting the full fat performance out of this M2 Chip I mean it's an efficient chip we knew that but great cool I want to know if it has a speaker I'm sorry buddy oh it does have a speaker maybe it's just bad when it's facing at you foreign so let's let's try to be a little more realistic about how this would be set up if this was on my desk so it's over there there would be a wall behind me probably in the real world but we're just going to ignore that part sounds pretty tingy so far let's max out it's like serviceable I think if all you were trying to do is not play music you just need to do like a video call anything that's not music it would be okay what about like what about like Linus talking ShortCircuit Yeah well yeah but you don't want to watch short circles is a computer it's pretty tingy now what I'm curious about is is my iPhone better or worse well MacBooks okay Apple laptops MacBooks way better for sure I'm pretty sure the iPhone sounds better it's not great um do Apple monitors have speakers in them because I mean this obviously doesn't have a monitor you're going to need to buy a monitor that's part of why it's so cheap but if all the Apple monitors have speakers and they're like decent then I guess it's less of a less of a concern either way integrated speakers worse than an iPhone not by much but a little bit worse I would say headphones airpods you can use airpods airpods are great should we take it apart now oh okay look at this computer how do we do this does anybody know bellavonts what cool that was really easy to get off actually oh there's little like rubber thingies that sit on the screws okay that seems pretty serviceable so far there's a little screw holding the Wi-Fi connector on it's very common for people to take their devices apart and just rip the Wi-Fi antenna out so it's very good that they put that there okay I got it off and I didn't break it hey this is so I mean in terms of serviceability this the little presumably BIOS batteries right there this has got to be the power supply over here wow it's so smart okay look at this see how it's at an angle this part is that an angle it's so you can get a screwdriver in there a normal screwdriver and you don't need like a really short custom like stubby one that would fit straight it's at an angle I mean I don't know what genius it's just reasonably smart I refuse to acknowledge that this is such a there's like nothing in here why don't they make this thing smaller it's it's like half it's half empty I don't know how to take off man they are vibing with those dumpsters that was pretty brutal I'm sorry cool pretty sure this part just like kind of Vibes off hey there we go okay wow so there's the chassis with the power supply nice little integrated unit I don't know how to take that part out um oh there's a screw right there it's probably not that hard but I don't need to do that I think the power spy can just chill in there and then this is the actual board oh there's the speaker that's why it sounds like garbage it's inside it would fire almost entirely up into the metal but there is little vents here so that's the only place you're getting the audio from that would explain why it's kind of crap that's probably storage right there do I dare take the heatsink off well I'm not I'm not worried about it there's a lot of little things on the back of this board you could very easily knock off this whole thing this fascia piece is connected here so taking it off means the whole back thing is just vibing now okay well that's not that bad hey heatsink little tiny processor it's kind of interesting that it's like half of an IHS it's like cut and then they have the memory solder to it it's very cute um I'm gonna reuse the stock thermal paste so that not really like altered characteristics hey it's back together look at that it's a Mac Mini now to talk pricing this particular one with eight gigabytes of RAM and 256 gigs of storage is 5.99 which is Apple's cheapest computer it's almost half the price of an iPhone 14 pro if you want to upgrade the storage or the CPU or anything else that starts to add up very quickly like I said before it's 200 to go to the 512 version so that's 7.99 and if you go to the pro which has a 10 core CPU 16 core GPU 16 gigs of RAM and a 5 12 gig SSD 12.99 but you do also get two extra Thunderbolt ports on the back if you're in the market for a small computer from Apple and you don't want to spend a lot of money this is a great option if you like this video like it get subscribed if you want to see other Apple content maybe check out the M2 laptops that Alex just did um they're also pretty cool"}
