There are three reasons Apple opted to hide the Mac Mini M4 power button
  • 🤔 Apple has shared why the power button on the Mac Mini M4 is hidden
  • 🤏 It’s mainly because of the Mac Mini’s compact size
  • 🤷‍♂️ But also because users apparently never use the power button on a Mac
  • 👉 Apple also says the button can be accessed easily, even though it’s underneath

    Or the most obvious answer of all: Macs have a power button on the keyboard

    Such a stupid thing to write about. Must be a really slow news day if they are writing about the location of the power button.

      Mac Mini doesn’t come with a keyboard. So unless you’ve owned an iMac or bought a keyboard separately, you won’t have that convenience.

      That being said, I haven’t touched the power button on my Mac Mini since I got mine on the 8th.
