The 2022 Mac Mini spec page shows "configurable" to 32gb which is the same language as the last one. So nope, much like the Mac Studio, there will be no RAM upgrades moving forward. Also guessing they are using those custom SSDs that can't be swapped with other hard drives, like the Studio.

The Mini has always been a great product, because you can keep beefing it up, but it looks like they want them to have a short life. This is the tradeoff for the $100 price drop, I assume.

Yes it’s all soldered. No one likes it. The only benefit is faster speeds than removable chipsets.

That is an unbelievably huge benefit though

PC users don’t care about the performance difference. Specs matter, except for when they don’t.
