All–new iMac is here!

Apple has introduced an all–new iMac, “built from the ground up” around Apple’s M1 processor, with a strikingly thinner and more minimalist design.

The new line, starting at $1,299 and shipping in May, has a 24–inch LED-backlit 4.5K display and supports Touch ID for the first time on a Mac. The base configuration, with two Thunderbolt ports and 7– core GPU, is available in a choice of four colors with up to 1TB of SSD storage. The configuration with four ports and 8–core GPU, available with up to 2TB of storage, starts at $1,499 and comes in seven colors.

The new design is just 11.5mm (less than half an inch) thick, and the back is completely flat, without the bulging curve of the previous model. Apple says the design brings the iMac closer than ever to its vision of making the computer disappear. It also makes the iMac look a lot like iPhone 12 and iPad Pro.

The compact design is made possible by the M1 chip, which integrates the processor, graphics, memory, and more onto a single chip, with greatly improved power efficiency. As a result, both the logic board and cooling system are dramatically smaller than the previous generation’s. Apple says the overall volume of the computer is reduced by 50%.
