Helped by the Mac mini M1, Apple becomes 1st in Japan
Apple is now the leading manufacturer of desktop PCs in Japan thanks to the Mac mini M1. According to the Japanese analysis firm BCN Ranking, Apple was able to overtake everyone in a few weeks.
Between August 1 and November 3, Apple had a 15% market share. The manufacturer was battling with Lenovo for third place. Since November, Apple’s share has been 27.1% in Japan thanks to the Mac mini M1. The Japanese seem to particularly like Apple’s new computer.
It must be said that the Mac mini M1 is indeed interesting. The desktop computer is powerful thanks to the chip from Apple. Moreover, it does better than Macs with Intel Core i9 processors in the test with a core. It’s pretty amazing when you know that the Intel Macs in question cost several thousand euros. Apple now goes through its own chip, like on iPhone, iPad, Apple TV and Apple Watch.
The Mac mini M1 starts at 799 euros. For that price, we have the Apple chip, 8 GB of unified RAM and 256 GB of storage space. Upgrading to 16 GB of RAM costs 230 euros. For storage, prices range from 230 euros to 920 euros to have between 512 GB and 2 TB.
