After much research and deliberation, I finally landed on this as my primary home office machine. I upgraded to 32gb ram myself for ~$ (purchasing Crucial 2666mHz ram and installing) instead of paying apple an extra $. Very powerful little machine. I think this is a great option if you don't need advanced graphics processing (no standalone GPU) and you already have peripherals that you like using. If you don't have peripherals and you don't mind apple's magic mouse + keyboard, I would consider a 2019 iMac too.

A little bigger than I thought but still far less space than my old desktop! Bought ram to upgrade myself. Takes a little time but easy enough!

Although carrying a nice slim and light form factor, Mac Mini is due for a design update. Apple has not updated the current design for many years. Mac Mini is a compelling stationary computer that offers enough power for all of your daily tasks. Do not expect to game on this machine much, however. Those paying attention to performance per dollar ratio should probably avoid Mac Mini, as it is a bit overpriced for the specs. Overall, a well-built light computer that performs well and does the job

Nice, compact little system with lots of power. I upgraded the RAM (purchased separately) and pushed it to 32GB. If you want more RAM, I suggest you do the same because Apple's pricing for RAM is outrageous. The main con to this system is the SSD is soldered in meaning you can't upgrade it. Apple's pricing on SSD upgrades are outrageous much like their RAM prices. That means you either have to pay a lot up front or use an external drive. It would have been easy for Apple to put a fast NVME drive in this which would allow a later user upgrade, but they chose not to.

Definitely an upgrade for me, and future proofed with the i7.

Mac mini
Re-engineered in no small way.
In addition to being a great desktop computer, Mac mini powers everything from home automation to giant render farms. And now with eighth-generation Intel quad-core and 6-core processors and Intel UHD Graphics 630, Mac mini has even more compute power for industrial-grade tasks. So whether you're running a live concert sound engine or testing your latest iOS app, Mac mini is the shortest distance between a great idea and a great result.
Climb in. Geek out.
Mac mini features high-performance 2666MHz DDR4 SO-DIMM memory for faster rendering, working with massive files, or running multiple virtual machines. And now you can configure even more memory to run even heavier workloads.
Haul apps.
Mac mini now includes all-flash PCIe-based storage, with up to four times the read speeds of previous flash options. So you can load giant files and launch apps faster than ever and with the available 2TB SSD, you'll have twice the space for all of them.
Next-generation security.
Mac mini features the Apple T2 Security Chip second-generation custom Mac silicon designed by Apple to make Mac mini even more secure. The T2 Security Chip consolidates several controllers into one, and includes a Secure Enclave coprocessor that provides the foundation for encrypted storage and secure boot capabilities.
I/O, I/O, it's off to work you go.
With a variety of ports, Mac mini is ready for a variety of workflow configurations. Thunderbolt 3 is our most powerful and versatile port ever and Mac mini has four of them. The new HDMI 2.0 port delivers more bandwidth than its predecessor, so you can enjoy faster frame rates. And now Mac mini can be configured with 10Gb Ethernet so it's ready to move mountainous files and monstrous data up to 10 times faster.
Thunderbolt 3 gives you some seriously productive possibilities. Transfer data at up to 40Gb/s. Charge and power external devices. Connect up to two 4K displays and even a third with HDMI 2.0 or one 5K display. Or pair Mac mini with an eGPU for desktop-class graphics performance.
To the desktop. And beyond.
Because of its size, performance, and wide array of ports, Mac mini goes where no Mac has gone before. And now with even more cores packed into its 7.7-inch-square frame, you never know where you'll find a Mac mini or dozens of them hard at work.
