Refurbished Mac Mini Technical information

The Mac Mini is an entry-level computer for those who want to be able to enjoy an Apple product without spending quite as much money as necessary for higher-end products. It was marketed as “the cheapest, most affordable Mac ever.”

Apple’s Mac Mini is a small desktop computer that was only 200 mm square and 36 mm tall for the original version. It weighed in at a tiny 1.2 kg. The most recent redesign measures 170 mm square and 51 mm tall.

The Mac Mini comes with:

  • 512 MB of 333 MHz, and it is expandable up to 1 GB of memory.
  • The graphics are ATI Radeon 9200 with 32 or 64 MB of DDR SDRAM.
  • It does not come with a screen, keyboard, or mouse. The user is free to choose the ones they prefer.

Why buy a Refurbished Mac Mini from Tech Trade?

A refurbished Mac Mini from Tech Trade offers all the same computing power and performance as a new Mac Mini at a much smaller price tag. Like any other Mac Mini, the refurbished Mac Mini can be used as a desktop computer by using a display device, a mouse, and a keyboard.

Using a screen for the Mac Mini to display on, they are often used as part of a home theatre system. As a result, our refurbished Mac Mini will display movies and games just as well as a new one. Many are fans of the fact that a Mac Mini can be displayed on any screen they may have lying around. You could use an Apple display, but you are not locked into a specific screen from Apple.

New vs Refurbished Mini

When considering whether to buy a refurbished Mac Mini or shell out significantly more cash for a new one, think about what you will be getting for the device you choose to purchase. Whether you buy a refurbished Mac Mini or a new one, you’ll still be getting the same level of power and performance. You can use either a refurbished Mac Mini or a new one for home theatre and computing use.

When you purchase a refurbished Mac Mini, you are getting a desktop computer that has been used by a previous owner. However, it has been sent back to the factory for reconditioning. The device will not have any signs of use by the previous owner except for some signs of wear on the device’s casing.

Buying a new Mac Mini will mean that you are the first person to take it out of the package and use it directly from the factory. It will still have that new product smell that everyone loves, and it will be shiny and pristine. But, it will come at a premium price.

A refurbished Mac Mini saves money but offers the same benefits. If it’s not completely necessary to buy new, buy used and SAV.

Differences between second-hand and refurbished Mac Minis

Second-hand Mac Minis are very different from refurbished Mac Minis. The refurbished Mac Mini’s which we provide are in top working condition and of equal functionality to new Mac Minis but for a more affordable price.

In comparison to second-hand Mac Minis, we have thoroughly tested and cleaned our refurbished models before putting them on sale. Ensuring our customers are provided with quality working condition PCs.

Second-hand Mac Minis might not have been properly tested meaning you could also inherit some technical issues. With our refurbished Mac Minis each unit is fully erased of any user data, reset recertified and fully tested before we put them up for sale.

Refurbished Mac Mini FAQs

FAQ

Q: Are Refurbished Mac Minis any good?

A: Yes, refurbished Mac Minis are very affordable and give you a similar performance to a brand-new Mac Mini at a better price. Refurbished Mac Minis that we provide are fully tested and wiped off any old user data so you don't swap price for performance. All of our refurbished Mac Minis also come with a warranty, so if anything does go wrong with your product we have you covered.

Q: Are there any downsides to buying a refurbished Mac Mini instead of a new one?

A: There aren't many downsides to purchasing a refurbished Mac Mini in comparison to one which is brand new. The biggest upside to purchasing a refurbished Mac Mini is its affordability. It is much cheaper to purchase a refurbished model than a new one. The only downside is that it can take time to fully refurbish a second-hand product so you could wait a while for it to be finished. However, with Tech Trade all our products have already been fully tested and refurbished before they are purchased.

Q: Is the Mac Mini discontinued?

A: Although earlier in 2022 Apple introduced the Mac Studio which is a mix between the Mac Pro and Mac Mini, Apple is continuing to include the Mac Mini in their product range. So for now it appears that Apple will continue to manufacture Mac Minis and does not have a plan in place at the moment to phase them out of production.

Q: How long do Mac Mini’s last?

A: Since the Mac Mini is an entry-level product for users they don't last as long as other Mac Products. The typical lifespan of the Mac Mini Is between 3 - 5 years depending on its usage. This is in contrast to other Mac products like the Mac Pro which typically last for around 7 years. However, the more you use your Mac Mini the more effect it has on the processing speed. They are also slightly lower in terms of specs when compared to other Mac Minis.
