Form factor wise.
Imac is all in one, computer+monitor.
Mac mini is just the mini box, computer only.

The military exchange had it for $499 without tax. If they had it at that price again, I would buy another. They are currently $599 with 0% financing. While I feel the 256GB SSD is too small, that was easy to fix with an external SSD, and is working well for me. The 8GB of ram has not been an issue in the least.
Great little machine for the price. Good performance, completely quiet.
Keep in mind that when you add in the cost of a monitor, keyboard, and mouse the price can get much higher very quickly, especially if you buy Apple branded stuff.
Fortunately I already had monitor, keyboard, and mouse so this was pretty plug-n-play.
Yes, the M2 will perform better once it gets to the Mini, but for most people, this M1 Mini will be more than sufficient.
I assume M1 mini would perform quite similar to MBA, despite one is 8 core and one is 7.
even the 7-core MBA is beyond most daily use scenario. i do regular office work, some statistical modeling, python and stuff on it hooking to a 4k monitor and i don't feel it bottlenecks many stuff.
I am even thinking getting M1 Mini since i dont' have to deal with the connector hassles (only 2 TB on MBA and one has to being used as power connector). And also Mini should have no problem with having 2 external monitors, while MBA/MBP can only do one.
and for now TBH i'll wait probably to around 400 level (quite impossible....) after they mass produced M2.
