Just sold my 17-month-old Mac Mini M4 for 54K today because my travel has gone up recently. I was nearly ready to settle for a used MacBook Air under 90K until I spotted this deal.

It showed just 1 in stock. Missed it the first time, but it popped back up 15 mins later and I instantly bagged it. I wanted Silver or Starlight, but couldn't pass this up.

Total net upgrade cost: 36K. Just hoping TreasureHall doesn't disappoint with the delivery now!

A colleague of mine recently returned from China and got his hands on MA M5 512GB variant on a decent discount compared to Indian Market.

He is offering to sell the same and the deal he is comfortable to lock in is 1 Lakh INR.

Is there a drawback for MA M5 bought from China? I heard Apple AI is permanently disabled at chip level so you cant use it even after changing region and language and I think I will probably live with it as I haven't found Apple AI much of a useful part yet.

Anything else I should look out for?
Its just 2 weeks old (without box)
