MacworldThe new M4 Mac mini is mini. Its way more mini than the old mini, which wasnt a very big desktop computer at all. At just 55 inches square and 2 inches tall, its less than a quarter the volume of the Mac Studio, which is also a small desktop computer, and only 1.33 inches bigger than the Apple TV 4K in length and width and not even an inch taller.But what does that really mean? How does that size compare to other everyday objects? Perhaps these photos will provide a better point of reference for just how mini Apples new Mac mini really is.FoundryHeres something you may have already: A Magic Trackpad.
