Apple has launched an updated iMac, its first refresh since 2024, featuring the M6 processor. The all-in-one computer retains the design from 2020, available in seven colors, but gains significant internal upgrades.
Shelly Goldberg, Apple's vice president of Hardware Engineering, highlighted the M6 chip's "blazing performance and AI capabilities" with Siri AI, integrated with the 24-inch Retina display and macOS 27. The new model supports Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6, with storage up to twice as fast as the previous version.
The iMac comes in two configurations: a base model with a 10-core CPU starting at $1,499, and a higher-end model with a 12-core CPU from $1,699, which includes 2.5 gigabit Ethernet as standard. Both start with 16GB RAM and 256GB storage, with upgrade options available. This release precedes Apple's "Pro and Tell" event for the revised MacBook Pro.
