With a slim body, bold colors, wider screen, and the ultimate power of the M1 chip, Apple’s iMac gets its first makeover since 2012. The 24in iMac costs from £1,249, wearing a very different yet familiar look when compared to the previous 21.5in Intel iMac model.
Apple’s new iMac screen measures 23.5″ on the diagonal and is a 4.5K resolution screen that can accommodate two full-size documents or two websites at once. Unlike the previous iMac, It has no black border but a slimmer white bezel around it and no apple logo embellished on the front.
Following the new iMac is, for the first time ever, a matching colored Touch ID fingerprint scanner keyboard, mouse, and trackpad. Due to the Touch ID fingerprint scanner, logging in is faster and convenient than the Apple Laptops. The iMac is built in a way that has its fans and speakers protruding out of the bottom, while the power button (thunderbolt 3/USB-C ports), and the power socket are on the left edge with the headphone port.

Apple says the new iMac also includes a 1080p FaceTime HD camera, studio-quality mics, and a six-speaker sound system — the best camera and audio ever in a Mac. iMac features a 1080p FaceTime HD camera which delivers high-quality video and great performance in low light. iMac also takes advantage of the image signal processor in the M1 chip and the Neural Engine, enhancing camera image quality with better noise reduction and improved auto exposure and white balance.
The only unchanging feature of the new iMac, when compared to the previous, is that no provision was made for height adjustments. Users can only tilt with the help of a book or rim of paper to raise it. Additionally, the iMac does not have a Face ID face recognition like the iPhone and iPad Pro.
