mac mini M1

Consodering moving to Apple system. Would Philips 246e monitor be "adequate" initially, for non specialist use with Mac Mini M1. Presume wireless Logi k545 mouse/ keyboard would also suffice, initially.

You won't know until you connect the peripherals. As this is a 1920x1080 display, and has an HDMI port, that would be your connectivity choice from the M1 mini. The monitor has no USB-C ports, only VGA or DVI-D.


The system requirements for that Logitech k545 keyboard/mouse setup is Windows and uses a Logitech unifying receiver, not bluetooth. You can plug that unifying receiver into the Mini's USB-A port (there are 2) and hope for the best, but if this k545 setup depends on Windows drivers too, then it won't be compatible.
