There are a lot of incredible things about the Mac mini M4, such as its rock-solid performance and very compact design. The one thing that people haven’t been happy with is the placement of the power button. It’s on the bottom of the computer, and at the back, which makes it pretty inconveniently-located. Now one of Apple’s executives has responded to the controversy.
Speaking to Fast Company, Apple’s Vice President of Hardware Engineering Kate Bergeron discussed various aspects of the Mac mini M4’s design. Including the power button, whose placement is apparently due to Apple wanting to get “as much I/O onto this little product as we could”.
