[Apple Reportedly Set to Launch New Mac Mini Within Days, Testing M5 and M6 Chip Versions] According to Deep Tide TechFlow on August 25, Bloomberg reported that Apple is preparing to launch its first new Mac mini in nearly two years, with the release possibly occurring before the September iPhone launch event. Sources familiar with the matter revealed that Apple has tested versions equipped with M5 and M6 chips. The current Mac mini has gained popularity due to the rising demand for running AI applications locally, but supply chain delays caused by memory chip shortages have extended delivery times. The new Mac mini is part of Apple's product updates for the second half of the year, which also include a foldable iPhone, the iPhone 18 Pro series, new Apple Watch, AirPods 5, smart home devices with screens, and an OLED version of the iPad mini.
