Using iMac 2015 as a monitor for Mac Mini

As my 2015 gets slower and slower I am looking to get a new computer. My late 2015 is running Big Sur 11.7.4. I would like to buy a new mini if I am able connect the two so it can be the monitor.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Not a new Mini, no, and not with that iMac either..


Review the document: Use your iMac as a display with target display mode - Apple Support

Target display mode is a feature available with late 2009-Mid 2014 iMacs. The display Mac has to be running macOS High Sierra or older and the signal producing Mac has to be running macOS Catalina (ca. 2019) or earlier.
