Still live: Amazon knocked the M4 Mac mini down to $499 shipped

$100 off/$499

We are still tracking a number of notable discounts on the higher-end upgraded configurations of Apple’s latest M4 Mac mini you’ll find down below, most of which are particularly rare offers. But Amazon is stepping in this morning with a deal on the most affordable M4 Mac mini configuration down at $499 shipped. 

The base model M4 Mac mini carries a 10-core CPU and a 10-core GPU alongside 16GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD at $599. It delivers some serious value for folks who just don’t need any more power than that, and now even more so with a $100 discount down to $499. 

Today’s deal is the best price we have tracked in months on Amazon and lands on par with most of the deals we have seen this year. Back in late June it did go for $30 less than this, with a few very short-lived drops into the $488 – $495 range before that, but it’s hard to deny the value of landing a current-generation M4-equipped Mac at $499 either way. 

Amazon has also dropped the price on the 16GB/512GB model down to $689 shipped from the regular $799 list price for $110 in savings – this is matching the lowest price we have tracked at Amazon on this config.  

As mentioned above, this deal on the most affordable variant is also joining a host of discounts on higher-end Mac mini configurations courtesy of authorized dealer B&H right now – these are configurations you can’t even buy on Amazon and setups we don’t see on sale nearly as often:

• M4 Mac mini 24GB/256GB $699 (Reg. $799)
• M4 Mac mini 32GB/512GB $1,099 (Reg. $1,199)
• M4 Pro Mac mini 24GB/1TB $1,449 (Reg. $1,599)
