A Day in the Life of My M1 Mac mini
I’ll be completely honest — when I originally switched from a 16" MacBook Pro to the new M1 Mac mini, I wasn’t entirely sure how the latter would fit into my life.
I thought it might just end up being a machine used entirely for performance comparisons and real world benchmarking. A point of reference, if you will.
But it has turned into so much more than that. The M1 Mac mini, as I noted in my two-week review, is effortless enough to be capable of running my entire business.
I can’t make it sweat. It never feels hamstrung by RAM, CPU speed or graphics performance. For such a relatively cheap Mac, it is absolutely incredible.
However, I’ve received a number of questions from viewers recently who want to know what a typical workload is for me. Am I really pushing this machine? Or is my use case actually relatively light and, therefore, perhaps indicative of the fact that I’m not really pushing the M1 as much as I could?
So, here’s why I get up to during a typical day. Let me know what you think in the comments.
