According to foreign media macrumors, Guo Mingxi said in a brief tweet that the updated Mac mini may retain the same form factor as the current model, which is Apple's aluminum one-piece design for every new Mac mini since 2010. Earlier this week, Kuo said the new Mac mini wouldn't be available until 2023.
Mr. Kuo's claims run counter to rumors from whistleblower Jon Prosser, who said last year that Apple was undergoing a complete redesign for small desktop computers, moving to smaller chassis with "plexiglass- style" tops.
The 9to5Mac recently said that Apple initially "planned" to launch a high-end version of the Mac mini with M1 Pro and M1 Max chips, but those plans "may be scrapped" in favor of Mac Studio. Now, it is reported that Apple is developing two new Mac mini models, one of which uses M2 chips and the other with M2 Pro chips.
