Deals on the current-generation Mac lineup have been, by and large, slow and slight to kick off 2026. The exception here is the latest M4 Mac mini – while prices have jumped back up on most configurations at Amazon now, B&H has just brought back the $100 price drop on what is, in my opinion, one of the more compelling configs you can buy.
B&H is now once again offering the M4 Mac mini with 24GB of RAM and the 256GB SSD down at $699 shipped. This is a regularly $799 configuration when purchased from Apple that is now seeing the same $100 price drop we featured last go around.
As a quick reminder, you can’t buy this official configuration from most major retailers like Amazon and Best Buy.
Now, you might be asking how a 256GB Mac mini could be one of the most compelling options for me, and understandably so – that is a seriously underwhelming amount of internal storage.
My response here is this – we are looking at the most affordable Mac mini config you can buy with the upgraded 24GB of RAM. As I have detailed previously, this is where I like to invest when it comes to Apple upgrades. I would much prefer a 512GB or 1TB internal storage setup, but considering how pricey it costs to upgrade these things on a Mac mini, it’s matter of picking your battles here and for me I would much rather land the RAM horsepower, save some cash, and leverage some external storage to help the cause on the backend.
The least expensive 24GB Mac mini you can buy on Amazon carries a $999 list price and is currently selling for $929.
It is, perhaps, not an ideal choice for everyone, and the base model Mac mini is just fine for many, but for me this is a great way to save some cash and score an upgrade and a more snappy Mac mini experience.
