Apple is upgrading some recent Mac Mini M4 orders to M6 or M5 Pro versions for free.

Usually buying new hardware ahead of a revision is a bad thing, but some Mac Mini orders are getting a free upgrade as a result, probably due to RAM and other component shortages. Some have reported M6 upgrades, while this poster on Reddit is now receiving an M5 Pro. The only downside? While some delivery dates have moved up, MacRumors points out that at least one student says theirs will now ship several weeks later.
