If you’re thinking of upgrading an old laptop or getting a pair of AirPods or an Apple Watch as a gift, it’s a good idea to check out Black Friday Apple deals this time of year. One of the best discounts we’re tracking right now is on the M4-powered Mac mini desktop – it’s $100 off right now, down from $599 to $499. This applies to the 16GB RAM/256GB SSD model, and is very close to its lowest price ever.
We rated the Mac mini M4 a 90 in our review, partly because it packs an incredible amount of power into such a small design. It also has front-facing USB-C and headphone ports, a first for the Mac mini lineup. Plus, it starts with 16GB of RAM, which is an upgrade from its predecessors.

However, if you want more memory or storage, other Mac Mini M4 models are also on sale. You can get 16GB RAM and a 512GB SSD for $690, down from $799. Then the 24GB RAM and 512GB SSD option is down to $890, down from $999. Plus, if you want to bundle AppleCare+ for three years, each model will be about $100 cheaper than usual.
If you’re looking to build a desktop setup from scratch, there’s also a small but notable discount on Apple’s Magic Trackpad. It’s down to $120, which is only seven percent less than its usual price, but it’s the cheapest it’s ever been.
