Key Takeaways
- The new M4 iMac features an 8-core CPU, 10-core GPU, and double RAM at a $1,299 base price.
- All bundled accessories now feature USB-C ports instead of Lightning for charging.
- The M4 iMac comes in new colors, but visually similar to the M3 model, released alongside 2024 iPad Pro.
The first of Apple’s long-rumored M4 Mac upgrades has arrived.
The new iMac with an M4 chip features an 8-core CPU and up to a 10-core GPU. The base-model costs $1,299, while the higher-end M4 iMac starts at $1,499. Regarding spec upgrades, RAM has been doubled to 16GB over the 8GB the previous version offered (it’s configurable up to 32GB). This time, all bundled accessories feature USB-C instead of Lightning charging ports, a long overdue change on Apple’s end. The M4 Mac comes in several new colors, including, yellow, orange, pink green, purple, blue, and silver.
Beyond the above changes, the M4 iMac looks identical to its M3-powered counterpart (just like the jump from the M1 iMac to the M3 iMac a few years ago — the iMac skipped the M3 chip). Apple’s iPad Pro (2024) was the first device to release with its M4 chip.
Apple’s new iMac is available to pre-order now and releases on November 8th.
