Score Apple’s 16GB M2 Mac mini starting from $370 Prime shipped today (Up to $429 off the orig. price)

M2 mini/From $370

Woot has now launched a new Mac sale featuring some solid price drops on previous-generation machines like the M2 Mac mini. While many folks are likely more focused on the M4 minis starting from $599 (or less at Amazon), Woot has landed with M2 mini deals for those looking to save a buck and still score a capable headless Mac starting from $369.99 Prime shipped. Details below. 

As of right now, the previous-generation M2 Mac mini base model with the 16GB of RAM and 256GB internal SSD is the deal that is really catching our eye. You’ll find a brand new unit with a full Apple warranty on sale for $449.99 Prime shipped and a refurbished model down at $369.99 Prime shipped. 

• M2 Mac mini 16GB/256GB $450 ($149 under the M4 model)
  • Or refurbished at $370 ($229 under the M4 model)

Considering the M2 Mac mini debuted at $599 with 8GB of RAM, the 16GB model on sale above is now $349 under the launch price. That said, we have seen the new 16GB M4 Mac mini drop as low as $469 at Amazon already and it might be worth waiting for a deal on that over buying the 2023 M2 model. We have seen the base 16GB M$ Mac mini drop to $499 several times now, and we wouldn’t be surprised to see that deal or better in the coming weeks/month.

However, the refurbished unit at $370 is perhaps a worthy consideration for folks looking for a casual headless Mac situation at an affordable rate – it’s not often you can grab a Mac that’s only a couple years old at $370. It can make for a nice home media server setup too.
