The AI boom has led to supply shortages; Apple has raised the starting price of the Mac Mini to $799.

Golden Finance reports that on May 2, Apple increased the starting price of its Mac Mini computer from $599 to $799 to cope with inventory tightness driven by demand for artificial intelligence and tightening chip supply. The company effectively carried out the price increase by canceling the entry-level configuration. The previous entry-level model came with an M4 chip and 256GB of storage; now, the starting version still uses the same chip, but the storage has been upgraded to 512GB. The starting price for the M4 Pro model remains unchanged at $1,399. Since the model with the $599 configuration has already sold out at most sales points, that configuration is no longer available. Other configurations shipped from Apple’s online store still take weeks or months, and availability at Apple retail stores is also very limited.
