Buying advice

This M2 Pro mini is worth comparing with the 8GB/256GB M2 for macOS development, photo or audio work that needs more working memory and local project space. The supplied 16GB/512GB configuration, four Thunderbolt 4 ports and support for three displays give concrete reasons to step up. Everyday web and document work may not need them. For memory-heavy projects, compare a 32GB configuration before buying rather than treating the Pro label as sufficient capacity.
