After bricking the M1 Mac Mini’s logic board I picked up a mid-range M4 Mac Mini.
Is it worth upgrading? In this case I had no choice, the cost for a new logic board was 4/5 the cost of a new device.
Even with double the RAM, I’m not convinced other than for longevity the switch can be justified.
They are good devices. The new form-factor is pleasing on the eye.
