More confusion and contradictions with a few days Post-conference more rumored than ever. Ming-Chi Kuo has been making good use of his Twitter account lately, and in recently said that the Mac mini would not have a new design. What there is now is what we will also see in its next renewal.
The same on the outside, but maybe with new ideas on the inside
I think the new Mac mini in 2023 will likely remain the same form factor design.

That’s how succinct Kuo was: “I think the new Mac mini in 2023 will keep the same design.” As such. I’d love to see the expression on Jon Prosser’s face, wearing his makes to show the change in appearance and size that the computer was going to have.
If Kuo is right, the move would be rare. The Mac mini M1 has already amply demonstrated that it has plenty of room to spare inside, and so a redesign would have to go through downsizing. Although it may also happen that Apple has decided use this space to improve some things
For the moment, what is certain is that we will have to be patient. What was seen as a very close launch a few months ago is now heading towards 2023 according to some sources. Meanwhile, the Mac mini M1 continues to be a great general-purpose desktop computer, and the Mac Studio stands out as the alternative for professionals.
