Inventory constraints continue to plague the M4 Mac mini line, but Amazon has two models with delivery dates in the near future, and one of them is on sale, too.

Apple's M4 Mac mini has been hard to source, with a nearly month‑long delay on the 16 GB RAM / 512 GB storage spec.

But Amazon now offers units available to purchase now, with delivery estimates of Aug. 18‑20. The $999 price on the 512‑GB configuration isn’t discounted, yet it puts the compact desktop in hands faster than ordering directly from Apple (and B&H is sold out entirely).

For those seeking higher performance, the M4 Pro model offers a 12‑core CPU and 16‑core GPU, 24 GB RAM, and 512 GB storage. You can save $30 on that configuration, and the chip’s memory bandwidth—273 GB/s versus 120 GB/s on the M4—makes it ideal for headless AI workloads. Inventory remains tight across the line, so these units carry a high risk of selling out.
