The 2018 Mac Mini (Macmini8,1) remains a popular refurbished model for those looking to get into the world of headless Apple devices. Although the newer M1 Mac Mini model is now available, the 2018 model is a fantastic way to get an affordable Apple device, whether it's to be used for school projects, or even as a home server.

Both the M1 Mac mini and M1 iMac have very similar features and performance, however with the Mac mini you will need to provide your own display, keyboard and mouse. If you already have these or prefer to use your own, then it makes a very cost effective way to use a Mac.
The Mac mini 2018 models have Intel processors whereas the Mac mini 2020 and 2023 models have M1 and M2 chips respectively. For most applications the M1 and M2 Mac mini have more processing power, however they have less capacity for memory.
