  • Still An Insane Machine
Set: Intel Core i5 Processor | 8 GB RAM | 256 G...
I bought the 2018 Mac mini expecting decent performance for its age but wow, I was seriously impressed. Even though it’s a few years old, it looks practically brand new and runs incredibly smooth. Apple’s build quality really shows here. As of September 2025, it still supports macOS TAHOE, and it runs the new system flawlessly. Apps open quickly, multitasking is easy, and it’s super quiet. Perfect for everyday tasks like browsing, streaming, or productivity work. If you’re thinking about getting a reliable and compact desktop without spending a fortune, this Mac mini is still 100% worth it. Honestly feels like a new machine. ... show more

  • Late 2018 Mac Mini - Still A Reliable Performer!
Set: Intel Core i5 Processor | 8 GB RAM | 256 G...
This Late 2018 Apple Mac Mini with 3.0GHz continues to be an excellent desktop solution years after its release. I use it daily for all my regular computing needs - handling emails, texts, word processing, web browsing and more with consistent performance and reliability. The system still works great without any slowdowns or hiccups during normal use. The 3.0GHz processor provides plenty of speed for multitasking across various applications simultaneously, and it boots up quickly every time. One of its standout features is the connectivity - it effortlessly connects to multiple screens, allowing me to create a productive workspace with extended displays. The setup process is intuitive with no compatibility issues. Similarly, connecting external keyboards and other peripherals is seamless with its variety of ports. For anyone looking for a compact, powerful desktop that handles everyday computing tasks with ease, this Mac Mini remains a solid choice. Its longevity proves Apple's commitment to creating machines that remain relevant and functional years after purchase. ... show more

  • Great for Price and Age
Set: Intel Core i5 Processor | 8 GB RAM | 256 G...
I bought this to go with my monitor I got as a gift. I upgraded it to a newer version of macOS. The sequoia works pretty well. I will say there has been a few glitches on my screen. It will glitch out of nowhere or it will turn the screen off and then come back on. Sometimes when I turn the Mac mini on after turning it off, my wallpaper isn’t the same as what I set it to on my lock screen, but that might just be me. Overall, I love it so much and have worked with iMacs for four years, so being able to use a Mac mini for less money than an iMac and even bigger monitor for less money, is so worth it. It does not overheat as some people say, it only gets warm. It can be quite loud when it comes to the vents but I don’t mind it at all. It is big in size so if you have a small desk, get a stand for it like I did, and it will work so good. Also, if you have a wired keyboard and a usb mouse, and a monitor without a camera, definitely get a usb hub so that you can plug everything in. I have no clue if the speakers work well, simply because my speakers are connected to my monitor. I will say, you kind of have to go into everything and manually turn down the volume on whatever software/website you are using/on. I have my monitor volume pretty low, but if you have like YouTube open, definitely turn the volume down because it blasts it. I don’t know if that’s just me though. I love this a lot though, definitely get it if you’re looking for cheaper options. I don’t expect it to be super quick with speed when loading seeing as it is an older model. I will definitely update if anything is to happen. Lastly, it is such an easy set up! ... show more

These old mac minis still have *plenty* of life in them! Worked flawlessly right out of the box, no jank, no slowdowns, in great physical condition too. Specs exactly as advertised. Incredible for this price. Used it for a few hours, will update my review if anything comes up in the next few weeks. Came installed with MacOS Sequoia. ... show more

  • Good budget product.
Set: Intel Core i5 Processor | 8 GB RAM | 256 G...
I peeled some serial number stickers way later and found the seller had hidden scratches with stickers. Unacceptable .:edit:. I temporary lent my M4 mini to my parents when their Windows based mini-pc wouldn't work properly. Since it was temporary I ended up choosing the 2018 Mac Mini with an 8th gen i5, 8GB Ram, and 256GB SSD. Ideally I wanted a M1 model but I was not willing to pay $257-300 just to use as a media center. If Apple TV came with a browser I’d probably just go with that but we need browser access. The product itself arrived quickly and packaged decently. Mix and match box but that doesn’t really matter. There were some stickers on the Mac and some other red sticky residue. Nothing hard to clean with access to isopropyl alcohol. I was worried about a 7 year old device not being fast enough for our basic usage but was thoroughly surprised. For my parents they can’t tell the difference between the i5 vs M4. So plus one for the performance. I did upgrade the ram myself to 64GB of RAM due to having plenty in my iMac. Apple quality always impresses and all the software needs are compatible with this 7 year old device. I do recommend this device for anyone buying it around $160 or less. To us this performs better than our N5105 NUC for overall performance. WiFi does not have issue compared to the 6900HX in my Beelink PC. ... show more

  • Great PC for even being an older model!

I currently use this Mac mini for general web surfing and video editing and it runs superb! I love the size and that it doesn't take up much space at all on my desk. It's very quiet to where I have to put my hand on top of it to see if it's actually on.
