iMac 24-inch (2021)

The iMac is available in up to seven different colours with matching accessories. Only the mid-range and top-end models get Magic Keyboards with Touch ID as standard.

£1,649 FROM Apple, apple.com/uk

FEATURES Apple M1 chip (8-core CPU, 8-core GPU), 512GB storage, 8GB of unified memory, 24-inch 4.5K Retina display (4480x2520 pixels), 2x Thunderbolt/USB 4 ports, 2x USB 3 ports, 1x Gigabit Ethernet port, Magic Keyboard with Touch ID

The 24-inch iMac is wafer-thin, but that has resulted in even fewer ports at the back.

Jo says…

I really love the look of the new iMac, but the best thing about it is just how quick and easy it is to use. And that 4.5K Retina display is great for watching movies on.

This is the Mac we’ve been waiting for. Measuring just 11.5mm thin and available in a choice of up to seven different colours, the 24-inch iMac feels instantly familiar and all-new at the same time. It clearly shares a familial familiarity with what’s gone before – an all-in-one computer with a gorgeous (now 4.5K) Retina display, perched on top of an aluminium stand with a tell-tale iMac chin.

The mid and top models come with two Thunderbolt/USB 4 and two USB 3 ports, all of which use USB-C connectors.
