Apple brings the Mac mini to life in a new short video
It makes me remember that around 10 years ago, Intel had launched a product line called NUC, Next Unit of Computing, a palm size PC, it fits to mount itself behind the monitor by the VESA mounting interface, which look almost exactly the same as today M4 Mac mini, but after Gen15, Intel abandon it on last year(?), it seems Apple finally makes this “Computing Unit” right.
Apple used Intel CPU before, it just can’t keep up.

Apple's Magic Mouse charging port design has never been a big deal
1.For the old mouse, after you realize that it is out of battery, then you go to find the spare batteries (if you don’t have to go to buy it) and change it, it may has enough time to charge the rechargeable model to work for a day.
2.May the next model has wireless charging, and works on a wireless charging pad, then no more complain. -
2024 iPad mini teardown reveals minimal internal changes
I think his iPad mini is for the “Future”.
If we call the device is capable to run “ Apple Intelligence” as “Next Generation”,
Apple has to make all the product line with one “Basic” model is able to run Apple Intelligence, specially to lower the barrier for the user of all previous generation devices to upgade, users in that segment don’t need and won’t buy the latest model and they will use the device for very long time.
If the user of a OS system fragmenting, specially AI may involve more and deeper in any function, it will becomes the burden for the developer and Apple.
This kind of subtle upgrade of the hardware is laying the ground for long-term upgrade or even second hand market, they will sell at a very valuable price and entitle to AI compatible.
