iMac

Apple updated the iMac in late October. But while some people were hoping for a more significant upgrade, what the company did was essentially put the M3 chip inside the chassis of the 2021 iMac. But is there really nothing new inside the new iMac? iFixit has shared a teardown of Apple’s latest all-in-one desktop to answer that question.

Apple’s Scary Fast event saw the very first update to the 24-inch iMac. Much like the other devices revealed on that pre-Halloween night, the real highlight of the announcement has the new M3 chip basking in all the glory. I’ve been using the new M3 iMac all week since launch and have some quick hands-on thoughts.

Thinking of upgrading from an Intel iMac? Or curious how much Apple’s all-in-one desktop has changed now that it’s powered by the third generation of its custom silicon? Follow along for a detailed look at the M3 iMac vs Intel iMac.

The first M3 MacBook Pro and iMac orders have started arriving to customers today, but some of those people are finding themselves in a bizarre predicament.

Apparently, some base model M3 MacBook Pros and M3 iMacs ship with macOS Ventura out of the box – and can’t be updated to macOS Sonoma due to a bug.

Apple really wants customers to buy the new M3 iMac, so much so they have told The Verge today that the company has no plans to make a 27-inch iMac running on Apple Silicon.

This means prospective buyers can stop holding out hope for a direct successor to the 27-inch iMac form factor that existed in the Intel era. However, Apple’s statement to press today specifically refers to the 27-inch model, which leaves the door open to a possible future iMac with an even larger display …

Apple on Monday announced the new M3 iMac and M3 MacBook Pro. Despite the new MacBook Pro in Space Black, the design of both new computers remained pretty much the same. However, the new iMac and MacBook Pro come with new wallpapers – and you don’t have to buy a new computer to get them. Download the new images right here.

At its “Scary fast” October event, Apple refreshed the 24-inch iMac for the first time since its release in 2021. But during that same event, Apple also downplayed the possibility of what many Mac fans have been waiting on: a big-screen version of the iMac powered by Apple Silicon.

Following the original Apple Silicon iMac with M1 chip that launched in 2021, the first update of Apple’s all-in-one desktop has arrived. Read along with our in-depth comparison of the M3 iMac vs M1 iMac when it comes to performance, display, features, I/O, and much more.

Apple unveiled its new M3 family of chips on Monday during the “Scary fast” event focused on the Mac. Ahead of the first orders arriving to customers next week, early benchmarks have now emerged to provide more details on the performance of the M3 processor.

Apple of course used all the words and phrases you’d expect for the new M3 chip line-up: groundbreaking, dramatically increased performance, unleash new capabilities, the biggest leap forward, and so on.

The company also shared some graphs pointing to the improved performance of the 3nm based M3 chips compared to their predecessors …

There weren’t too many surprises in last night’s Scary Fast event. The event was entirely Mac-focused; all three M3 chips are available simultaneously; the M3-powered 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models were the stars of the show; and the 24-inch iMac got updated from the M1 chip to the M3 one.

But there were still a couple of somewhat unexpected developments – and it’s also worth noting what Apple didn’t announce …

Along with the introduction of a new generation MacBook Pro, Apple also announced a new iMac during its “Scary Fast” event on Monday. However, despite the new M3 chip inside the new iMac, Apple’s all-in-one desktop computer looks pretty much the same as its predecessor. Read on as we detail what changes from the M1 iMac to the M3 iMac.

Apple on Monday announced a new generation of the 24-inch iMac, almost three years since the introduction of the M1 iMac. The new version features a similar design to the previous one, but now with the just announced M3 chip, which is faster and more efficient. Read on as we detail what’s new in the M3 iMac.

Time moves fast. Scary fast, you could say. A week ago, we didn’t expect there to be a second fall Apple event this year. Now we’re wading through what to expect from Apple’s surprise Monday video-only affair tonight.

We’ve got a pretty solid idea what some of the Scary Fast announcements are going to be on Monday evening, while others are less certain.

Let’s look both at what we expect, what we might see, and what we don’t expect – and hear from you which are the ones you’re really hoping for …

With just the weekend to go before Apple’s Scary Fast event, Mark Gurman has provided a final (?) roundup of everything he expects to be announced.

The headline news, of course, is expected to be new MacBook Pro models with M3 Pro and M3 Max chips, as Apple continues to push ahead of competitors still trying to catch up with the capabilities of the M2 line-up …

Apple may be about to announce new iMacs for the first time in two and a half years. If true, what Apple silicon chip do you think will be inside? M2 is the most likely answer, but is an M2 iMac worth buying at this point?

It’s been more than two years since Apple released the redesigned 24-inch iMac with Apple silicon. There may be good news and bad news on that front, according to a new rumor.

The iconic iMac G3 was announced by Steve Jobs almost 26 years ago, on May 6, 1998. For its time, the iMac was considered a revolution in industrial design with its all-in-one construction in translucent plastic. It also ditched technologies like serial ports and floppy disk readers in favor of CD and USB. But did you know that there was an iMac G3 with a touchscreen? Well, sort of.

Last month, Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman reported that Apple is in the early stages of developing an Apple Silicon version of the iMac with a screen larger than 30 inches. In this week’s version of his Power On newsletter, Gurman offers a couple more tidbits on the timeline for this machine, saying that it would be released in late 2024 at the earliest.

We’ve heard rumors about Apple working on a new generation of the 24-inch iMac, which would come with the M3 chip. However, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman recently reported that Apple also plans to introduce a larger 30-inch iMac in the future. While the existence of such a computer is currently unclear, we want to know if you would buy one.
