Apple has unveiled its new Mac Mini at an event in New York.<\/p>\n

The new device has a Space Gray finish and features improved specifications compared to the previous model.<\/p>\n

Apple said the new Mac Mini will be powered by Intel 8th-generation processors, with either quad-core or hexa-core configurations.<\/p>\n

This upgrade makes the new Mac Mini up to five-times faster than the previous-generation device.<\/p>\n

Apple’s new Mac Mini sports a minimum of 8GB RAM which can be upgraded to up to 64GB of memory.<\/p>\n

Additionally, all new Mac Mini devices will feature solid state storage, with capacities ranging from 128GB to 2TB.<\/p>\n

“The new Mac Mini is a much faster, way more capable Mac desktop which allows you to choose your own desktop, keyboard, and monitor,” Apple said.<\/p>\n

The Mac Mini also includes Apple’s new T2 security chip, which offers HEVC video transcoding that is up to 30-times faster than previous Mac Mini products.<\/p>\n

Apple said the basic version of the Mac Mini will feature 8GB RAM, a 128GB SSD, and an Intel 8th-gen quad-core processor.<\/p>\n

The device will be priced from $799 and is available for pre-order today – shipping on 7 November 2018.<\/p>\n
