Today, April 20, during the presentation “Full bloom”, Apple unveiled a variety of gadgets. In particular, the AirTag Hidden Object Tags, which we have been waiting for for a very long time. But one of the coolest devices is the new iMac. It has become much thinner than the previous version and, of course, faster. This is a terrific gadget that fits completely into the concept of the latest updates to Apple devices.
The new iMac is powered by the Apple M1 processor. And of course, this is exactly what allowed us to make it thin. With older processors, a lot of additional components and cooling were needed. With the new M1 chip, it all fits into a compact package.
Now the diagonal of the display is 24 inches, it is 4480×2520 pixels, only 11.3 million pixels. In addition, the iMac camera has been improved and now it is a 1080p FaceTime HD Camera. In addition to this, the M1 processor will render better than previous chips, so video calls from the new 2021 iMac will be amazing.
We’ve also improved the microphone system to make your video calls sound like never before. A 6-speaker sound system should make your video calling experience perfect. Largely thanks to Dolby Atmos.
macOS Big Sur, of course, flies on the new processor. Safari, Arcade … Everything works at the highest level, Apple promises us. Xcode, Lightroom and other heavy applications are easily digested by the M1 processor. The processor is 85% faster than the previous one. 2x faster graphics, 3x machine learning
The M1 chip is the most powerful chip we’ve ever made. And macOS Big Sur is the most advanced operating system for Mac. Together, they take iMac to the next level of performance, efficiency and safety. iMac wakes up almost instantly, apps open almost instantly, and the entire system runs smoothly and quickly. Up to 85% more CPU power and up to 2x faster graphics processing than a 21.5-inch iMac. Therefore, you can compile code or edit photos in real time much faster in applications like Xcode and Affinity Photo. At the same time, the iMac is quiet and does not overheat, even under very high load. It is the result of the perfect interaction of powerful hardware, software and the M1 chip.
iMac can handle 5 streams of 4K video. IPhone and iPad games are now available on the iMac. The new iMac 2021 has 4 USB-C ports, 2 of which support the Thunderbolt standard (you can connect displays). And the Ethernet cable plugs directly into the power adapter.
Apple has three keyboard options! One is regular, the other is with Touch ID, and the third is with Touch ID and NUM pad.
The iMac starts at $ 1,499. A total of 7 colors will be available. Sales begin in the second half of May, with pre-orders on April 30th.
In Russia, the iMac 24 inches will cost 129,990 rubles, 149,990 rubles and 169,990 rubles, depending on the hardware. The most expensive version comes with 512 GB of storage, 8GB of RAM and an 8-core M1 processor.
