In what way is it a game changer for travel?
A few reasons:

First, it's tiny. Most standard machines are still bulky—about the size of a small laptop bag. The AirMini is compact and lightweight. I have a travel case about the size of a shaving bag that easily holds the machine, mask, power adapter, and tubing with room to spare. To put it in perspective, the AirSense 11 takes up a bit more than half of my carry-on and is awkwardly shaped, so you pretty much have to carry it separately. The AirMini fits perfectly across one end of my carry-on or in the bottom of my backpack.

Second, there's no need to find distilled water or mess with bottled water or local tap water. There's no reservoir to clean or maintain. The heat moisture exchanger (HME) cartridges provide adequate humidification, and third‑party cartridges are inexpensive and work fine.

Finally, it can be powered by battery, and you can easily get a couple of nights' use out of it since it sips power compared with a full‑size machine. It's easy to use while camping.

Another nice thing is that it is small enough to be placed almost anywhere. You can use it while flying since it fits on a tray table, or use it in a car.

There is also some additional piece of mind in that it's a pretty durable unit and easy to protect. I have a small hardcase (a third party version of this: https://eshop.resmed.com/products...avel-case) inside of the aforementioned travel bag (https://www.amazon.com/CURMIO-Com...8DD4VFQJ/) which has a little padding, and then I have inside of my carry-on with some clothing around it. I have seen many CPAPs fall out of overhead bins, get dropped at TSA, or be flung against the floor when attached to the carry handle of luggage. The small size and simple design of the AirMini gives the feeling that it is a bit more drop resistant.

However, it isn't without flaws.

It is noisier than full‑size machines. Both the device and masks with the HME produce more noise. You can mitigate this somewhat by placement—there are a variety of mounting solutions available; I use one that slips between the mattress and box spring so the unit isn't on the nightstand. You can also use a different mask with an adapter, and there are some muffler solutions.

The HME cartridges do an adequate job of humidity regulation, and you can control this somewhat depending on whether you choose the regular or extra humidity option, but you don't have the same level of control or the effectiveness of heated tubing combined with a reservoir. If the ambient temperature is low enough, you can still experience some rainout (condensation).

Depends on your insurance plan. ResMed CPAP machines are considered high end machines for some insurance plans and won't cover these units. Some insurance plans will cover rental of the units and not ownership of the CPAP unit. And all insurance plans want proof that you need the machine which requires a proper sleep study before the plan will cover. Many insurance plans only cover a portion of the cost so you might pay more than buying it direct from an etailer.
When I buy my supplies with Apria (one of the bigger companies/retailers) though my insurance I still have to cover half which is still higher than buying the supplies with my own money especially when sales happen on Apria Direct. I can save 25-50% on sale days on the holidays over my insured price.
These machines cannot be sold by these etailers without a prescription regardless (do not count some of the junk that claim to be CPAP machines on Amazon). All of these companies will ask for a prescription before they fulfill/ship to you.
All of this. Additionally, some insurance plans will only cover the purchase of the machine after you've done X number of months of renting one and have demonstrated sufficient compliance. Between deductibles/copays/DME-provider restrictions, etc., it's often more attractive to buy the machine directly without messing with insurance, especially if you are using FSA/HSA money for it.

Water chamber design is so much worse than the 10. Even the hose connector in the back of the machine is poorly designed versus the prior model. That being said, I'm using the new one and I'm finding it to be quieter and the airflow algorithms do appear to be better for me.
Seriously? I didn't think 10 was that great. I swear that all these cpap manufacturers try to make the water chambers with as many tiny surfaces as possible to promote bacterial growth. The thing isn't going into space; it doesn't need a lot of bracing.

it's not air... for oxygen you would need an oxygen concentration which you can but without a prescription. This is for the proper pressure to inflate someone's lungs properly to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide properly... they need to calibrated to you so there is enough pressure to inflate your lung and not too much to blow out your lung and kill you (admittedly the kill you portion would usually mean either severe neglect or someone doing something stupid with a self made machine).

Not just the nooks and crannies. For example, you used to be able to easily place the 10 water chamber on your bed and then refill right there without the chamber tipping over. The older water chamber was balanced. So with or without water, it would stay in place. The new 11 chamber doesn't even sit comfortably when it's opened and that's before you even start pouring any water into it. Once you start pouring water in it, it might tip over as it has for me.

On top of that, once you insert the 11 chamber into the machine combo, it's not a tight fit. It feels a little loose like it hasn't fully established a strong connection. It clearly works, but it's just cheap feeling and not designed intelligently.

Got diagnosed with sleep apnea and used this machine, worked great, and highly recommend. Insurance covered the cost, but if not, phenomenal deal!
That said, mask's are tricky as everyone is different... HATED the nose pillows, but for some, they love the nose pillows.
Thankfully lost a lot of weight and no longer need the machine, but again, if in need of a CPAP machine, great machine at a great price.
How much weight did you need to lose to stop using cpap? I am using cpap too but lost 10 lbs but no luck

Dawm, I had to go take a sleep test and the pay almost $2k out of pocket just to get this cpap machine. If I knew these things go on sale, I would of just bought one (I already knew I had sleep abnea)

These doctors and insurance companies are a scam!

I have sleep apnea, but when I went for the test, I couldn't fall asleep at all in that environment. With all the equipment on me, my hand became numb, and the people in the surrounding rooms were snoring loudly. I lay there from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m. before I finally fell asleep, and at 4 a.m. the staff came in to tell me to leave. They said they needed at least 3 hours of data to issue a prescription.

It's ridiculous small for a continuous CPAP system and uses less power so can run off a battery with the proper port on it (you can use on the plane itself). No humidifier chamber but uses moisturizer disks in the mask to keep a small footprint. The machine is half the size of the ResMed 10 unit with a humidifier and 60% of the ResMed 11 with a humidifier. AirMini uses 65W power source compared to 90-95W for ResMed 10 and 11 units. AirMini units are not as feature rich as regular units and masks that can used properly are more limited as well.
Are the disks expensive? Re-usable? Consumable?

Edit: The disk is about $37 for a 3-pack. Each disk is consumable and last about 30-days.

Same happened to me. It's all designed to extract money from you.
