  • Fantastic looks, Great Design, Good Performance
  • Loses out on price-performance ratio
  • PerformanceIn terms of design and form factor, PCs that come closest to this one are nettops, but the same cannot be said about performance. Be it for video editing, audio encoding, processing images using design suites, or for casual multimedia, the p...

  • Tiny, compact body, Unibody aluminum exterior, Easy RAM upgrades, HDMI output, Builtin SD Card reader
  • Higher price than previous entry level model, Just 2GB of RAM in the base model
  • The new Apple Mac mini (mid 2010) sells for a price of Rs. 44,900 -- priced higher than previous entry level Mac mini model. It packs in better, improved internal hardware compared to the older Mac minis and sports a slimmer unibody aluminum shell. It...

  • Sleek, living room-ready aluminum chassis; HDMI video output makes it easy to connect an HDTV; SD card slot; user-accessible RAM; handles Web-based HD video with no trouble; best-in-class case design.
  • Puny storage capacity for its price; no Blu-ray hurts in a pricier living room system like this.

  • Encombrement minimal, Design et finition de qualité, Silence de fonctionnement, Performances suffisantes pour la bureautique, Faible consommation électrique
  • Connectique peu accessible, Fourni sans clavier ni souris, On aurait préféré un processeur Core i, Toujours pas de lecteur Blu-Ray sur Mac, Prix élevé (non pris en compte dans la notation)
  • Toujours plus compact, le Mac Mini en version 2010 se veut toujours plus discret et ne manque pas d'atouts. Cependant, malgré des performances satisfaisantes, on regrette l'absence de processeurs Intel Core i et le sacrifice de l'accessibilité au profi...

  • Design irréprochable, Transformateur intégré, HDMI, lecteur de carte SD, Performances 3D améliorées
  • Prix prohibitif, Évolutions techniques trop timides
  • Plusieurs points essentiels se dégagent de cette nouvelle édition 2010 du Mac mini. Le premier n'échappera à personne: Apple a revu le design de son petit ordinateur de bureau.On aime ou on n'aime pas, mais dans l'ensemble, le lifting est plutôt réussi...

  • Poche considerazioni: Mac Mini aveva bisogno di un aggiornamento ed è arrivato. La dotazione di interfacce è stata riallineata a quelle che sono le esigenze di base di un utente, e di un utente Mac (per la firewire 800). Mac mini con il suo guscio unib...
