The current top end M1 Mac Mini tops out at 16GB of unified memory (meaning, it's shared with the GPU). That's OK but I'd prefer 32GB. More annoyingly, the store only stocks (up to) 8GB/512GB.
Part of the appeal of a Macbook Air (which IMHO is the best M1 form factor thus far) is it's not a lot of money (compared to a Macbook Pro 16" anyway) and you can just walk into a store and get another one if you need it.
This applies to accessories too. I know it's easy to get a Macbook charger. But a Dell or Lenovo charger? I'd probably have to wait days for that.
Also the upgrade prices are kinda unjustifiable. Upgrading to 16GB/1TB is $1299. That's a lot for the specs ($200 for each of 16GB->32GB and 512GB->1TB). I'm really hoping the next version gets better.
I do think the M1 has been received incredibly well and Apple has done a great job here it seems.
