Why Mac Mini is less popular in Malaysia?

I think mostly it’s behavior, most will gravitate to tablet or laptop. Same with Apple, most will buy iPad or MacBook.

You can see the trend of worldwide shipment of desktop vs laptop vs tablet here:

Worldwide sales of laptops have eclipsed desktops for more than a decade. This gap is expected to only grow in the future as mobile performance becomes better (eg apple silicon on MacBook Air).

Actually the demand for laptop skyrocketed over the past 6 months locally. Went to Lowyat the other day and alot of the laptops were sold out due to parents scrambling to get laptops so that their kids can attend online classes and all.

there's really no reason to buy a desktop nowadays for the average user. even professionals tend to get "mobile workstations" too instead of the big dekstops anymore.
