The M2 Pro Mac Mini was introduced in 2023 with the then-new M2 Silicon processor, which features integrated graphics and better performance than the M1. And ahead of Memorial Day at Best Buy, you can save 30% on the M2 Mac Mini, bringing the price down to just $840. Which is almost unheard of for an Apple deal.

How I rated this deal
The M2 Pro Mac Mini is already a great value compared to the M1 version with a lower price tag and more robust components. But this steep of a markdown is very rare for Apple, even for their older tech, allowing you to snag a great mini desktop for office work, content creation, and casual home use for just $840. And while deals and sales on Apple products are few and far between, it’s almost unheard of to find a new, in-box device for 30% off as most steep Apple discounts are applied to refurbished or open-box products.
