The 2024 iMac features upgrades such as new M4 processors, a higher-quality 12MP webcam, optional nano-coated display, updated colors, and more.
The base model of the iMac 2024 now comes with a 16GB RAM, eliminating the past issue of it having just 8GB.
The iMac 2024 retains the slim 0.43-inch frame of its predecessor, with other unchanged features like the two Thunderbolt 4 ports for the base model and four for the more expensive version.
The iMac M4's color palette received slight refreshment, with updated Magic Keyboard paired with an optional Touch ID that charges via USB-C.
Apple claims that the new 12MP webcam produces sharp and color-accurate video that is worthy of the rest of the computer.
The iMac 2024 has two processor options, the 8-core CPU for the base model and the 10-core CPU for the other versions with four Thunderbolt ports.
The 2024 iMac can be used for video editing, gaming, and productivity tasks, with performance benchmarks showing a substantial increase from its predecessor.
The iMac M4 is also great for entertainment, with a bright, sharp display, 4K HDR content support, and Dolby Atmos and Spatial Audio.
The iMac 2024 is a practical, capable, and expandable machine although it is not cheap.
The iMac M4 is worth the upgrade, as it promises to be more cost-effective, with base memory now upgraded to 16GB for the base model.
