2026 verdict
macOS polish against Windows horsepower: the Geekom A9 Mega (64GB + 1TB) wins this mini PC comparison over the Apple Mac Mini (M2 Pro 16GB + 512GB).
It leads on a three-year warranty versus one year, on LPDDR5X versus LPDDR5, on 64GB versus 16GB, and on 1TB versus 512GB. The Apple Mac Mini (M2 Pro 16GB + 512GB) is still the cheaper, better-reviewed creative desk: a 10-core M2 Pro, a 16-core GPU, four Thunderbolt 4 ports, two USB-A ports, HDMI to 8K 60Hz and a built-in 185W supply in a 197 mm aluminum square. Choose the A9 Mega for Windows and a 64GB pool; choose the M2 Pro Mini when Thunderbolt, three displays and a silent Mac workflow already exist.
