Reasons To Buy

Only 11.5mm. Now that’s thin.

This extraordinary design is only possible thanks to M1, the first system on a chip for Mac. It makes iMac so thin and compact that it fits in more places than ever.

M1 integrates the processor, graphics, memory and more onto a single chip. That let us put an entire computer into a space so small it practically disappears.

See the big picture. And all the details.

See it all in sharp, glorious detail on the immersive 24‑inch 4.5K Retina display. The P3 wide colour gamut brings what you’re watching to life in over a billion colours. Images shine with a brilliant 500 nits of brightness. Industry-leading anti-reflective coating delivers greater comfort and readability. And True Tone technology automatically adjusts the colour temperature of your display to the ambient light of your environment, for a more natural viewing experience. So whether you’re editing photos, working on presentations or watching your favourite shows and movies, everything looks incredible on iMac.

1080p FaceTime HD camera. Ready for your close‑up.

It’s the best camera system ever in a Mac. Double the resolution for higher-quality video calls.2 A larger sensor that captures more light. And the advanced image signal processor (ISP) of M1 greatly improves image quality. So from collaborating with co-workers to catching up with friends and family, you’ll always look your best.

Studio-quality mics. For high-quality conversations.

Whether you’re on a video call with a friend, cutting a track or recording a podcast, the microphones on iMac make sure you come through loud, crisp and clear. The studio-quality three-mic array is designed to reduce feedback, so conversations flow more naturally and you interrupt each other less. And beamforming technology helps the mics ignore background noise. Which means everyone hears you — not what’s going on around you.

Six-speaker sound system. Audio that really fills a room.

The sound system on iMac brings incredible, room-filling audio to any space. Two pairs of force-cancelling woofers create rich, deep bass without unwanted vibrations. And each pair is balanced with a high-performance tweeter. The result is a massive, detailed soundstage that takes your movies, music and more to the next level.

M1 and Big Sur. With great power comes great capability.

M1 is the most powerful chip we’ve ever made. macOS Big Sur is the most advanced desktop operating system in the world. Combined, they take iMac to entirely new levels of performance, efficiency and security. iMac wakes from sleep almost instantly, apps launch in a flash, and the whole system feels fluid, smooth and speedy. With up to 85 per cent faster CPU performance and up to two times faster graphics performance than standard 21.5-inch iMac models, you can use apps like Xcode and Affinity Photo to compile code in a fraction of the time or edit photos in real time.3 And it stays cool and quiet even while tackling these intense workloads. That’s the power of hardware, software and silicon — all designed together.

There are more apps for iMac than ever before.

iMac has apps for just about everything and everyone. With M1 and macOS Big Sur, you can even run many of your favourite iPhone and iPad apps directly on your iMac. And as always, it’s easy to search, discover and download on the Mac App Store.

iMac + iPhone. Quite the pair.

iMac gives you the best of iPhone, on a big, beautiful screen. iPhone lets you access what you need from iMac on the go. And when you use them together, they work like magic.

Keep the colour going all the way to your fingertips.

The new iMac features a colour-matched keyboard, mouse and trackpad. Magic Keyboard now has keys for Spotlight, Dictation, Do Not Disturb and emoji. And for the first time, Touch ID comes to iMac. So you can easily and securely unlock your computer, use Apple Pay and download apps quickly with just a finger.
