Apple’s new M6 Mac Mini is over $100 off

The Verge

What changed

Amazon is selling Apple’s base 2026 M6 Mac Mini for $779.99, down from its stated $899 starting price. The model includes 256GB of storage, 16GB of RAM, a 12-core CPU and a 12-core GPU, in an October Prime Day promotion.

Why it matters

The discount changes the M6 Mac Mini’s practical entry price by more than $100. That matters because Apple raised the new model’s starting price from the previous generation’s $599, making this deal the difference between a noticeably costlier upgrade and a somewhat easier purchase decision.

The hardware itself is unchanged by the sale: buyers still get the base storage and memory configuration. For anyone evaluating a compact desktop, the useful question is therefore simple: is the newer M6 performance worth $779.99, rather than $899?

The promotion’s end time, inventory and geographic availability are not stated, so the lower price should be treated as temporary rather than a new baseline.
