No Internal Microphone for Mac mini M1 (2020)

Apple support advised me that I am unable to avail myself of SIRI on this new computer because there is no microphone, contrary to most all reviews written about this new state of the art computer. Unbelievable! Does anyone have a workaround without having to wear headphones with microphone all day?

Thank you

M1 Mac minis don't have a microphone.


Mac minis have never had a microphone.


Any USB microphone should work if you wish to add one.
