Mac Mini is significantly backordered:

- M4, 16 GB: April 17–24
- M4 Pro, 48 GB: May 21–29
- M4 Pro, 64 GB: "16–18 weeks" 😮

I've never seen an Apple shipping estimate that far out.

@marcoarment I noticed this too a couple weeks ago and ended up here:

'When Apple will release the next Mac mini is less clear, but an early to mid 2026 launch is expected, with a date around WWDC in June most likely. However, with the Mac mini currently out of stock at Amazon U.S. and delivery delays for Apple in the U.S. and U.K. it is possible that we could see a new Mac mini very soon.'
