Tariff is applied on good imported into US, we are not in US.

You are very wrong... we wont able to escape as inside 1 mac mini how many components are there? My wild guess is all apple product might raise at least 10%...

you are the one very wrong!

Apple silicon processor - made in Taiwan
RAM - made in Korea
SSD - made in Korea/Japan
PCB - made in China
other small components are mostly made in China

U.S.A only makes the software and design it.

Trump is an idiot thought everything can make in US, it is not that easy and can do it within few years!

So dont act like Trump!

Lets see, I dont want comment much. Time will tell.

us tariff will sure increase price. not export / import usa. it is give given and take. when less
demand from usa, manufacturer will reduce supply. then slowly parts price will increase due to this effect. else whole world stock market wont crashed. worse case manufacturing will cut job as demand low. and slowly will cause major recession if all do same things

Guys any promotion you guys know for the Mac mini? I got green light for the Mac so now looking for best promo available

Which model u looking for? Base model? New or used?

New Base model

Now not really got any discount.. all promotion ended..maybe you can try your luck borrow others student ID to get student price...
Based on current market you might able get 2049? and another rm200 for comission...so totla 2249 better than you paid full price 2499...
But this student purchase might not able to claim tax in next year ya...

wait 15 or 25 payday sale

Why is student purchase not able to claim tax?

Thanks guys, was lucky enough on TikTok got discount on vouchers. So not fully retail price but good enough for me.

can share how much you get in the end?

I got it for RM 2,374.00 (Some savings instead of full retail) fulfillment was from Machine TikTok account

First time Mac owner here. Was torn between the normal m4, 32GB ram, 1TB storage and the m4 pro, 24GB ram, 1TB models.

Went with the latter and but now 2nd guessing if I should have gone for m4/32GB instead of m4pro/24GB.

If budget allows, get m4pro + 24gb would be enough. Pair with 512GB ssd is more than enough. Instead go for 1tb storage, go buy 40gbps ssd enclosure + 2TB ssd. (Much more cheaper go with 1TB apple ssd.)
Mac can run the application on external drive but that application cant use Apple Intelligent only.

I am a 1TB 'drive c' kinda guy so went with 1TB SSD with 24GB ram and m4 pro. OK la, stretched my budget a bit

Ok just suggestion TBH if light user like me, i still have around 130gb left from my 256gb ssd.

6 more months to macmini m5. Really hope the tariff war doesn't screw up the pricing. Will be upgrading from macmini m1.
