So I picked up an open box M1 mini from Best Buy for $600. What a PITA to reinstall BigSur. Google it for help if anyone has to do this on any of the 3 new M1 choices. Nice machine but a bit of screwing around.
And now I'm seeing bluetooth issues with my mouse and keyboard. No problem as I have a usb hardwired Apple keyboard and mouse. Good to go! The problems are real my friends. However this mini is still a beast and I'm hoping future updates help the problems it has.
Bluetooth issues seem to be gone after the last update. I'm back to bluetooth apple keyboard and Magic Mouse and so far so good. I added a C920s Logitech camera from B&H photo. Everything working well. Great machine!!
