iMac Desktop Advanced

Overview

Best iMac option for the vast majority of users

Space-efficient, quieter, runs cooler than ever before

The M1 iMac offers more than enough performance and important day-to-day features like a high-quality display, camera, microphone, and speaker system. The iMac now features an Apple-designed "M1" Arm-based chip, replacing the prior Intel chips, to bring significant speed and efficiency improvements.

The M1 chip enables the thinner design introduced with the new iMac. The logic board and thermals have been dramatically consolidated and reduced in size, so the new iMac takes up 50% less space and fits more easily in different places. It is also considerably quieter than the previous version thanks to the thermals of the M1 chip and the new cooling system.

Secure

The iMac, with its M1 chip, provides secure encrypted storage. Your storage drive is encrypted with hardware keys to provide advanced levels of security.  Secure boot and Startup Security is designed to verify that the operating system software loaded on your computer at startup is authorized by Apple. The M1 chip in your 24-inch iMac verifies that the version of macOS software loaded during startup is authorized by Apple, and continues behind the scenes to protect the authorizations established for macOS. This makes it harder for malware or malicious websites to exploit your iMac.

A Variety of Colors and Color-coordinated accessories

The new iMac comes in a range of seven vibrant colors including green, yellow, orange, pink, purple, blue, and silver, allowing customers to choose a color that they feel best suits them. iMac features softer colors and thinner borders on the front to allow users to focus on their on-screen content, while the back features a much more bold, saturated color. To complete the new design, the iMac comes with a new power connector that attaches magnetically and a woven two-meter-long color-matched cable. The iMac comes with a new, color-matched Magic Mouse, and users can opt to upgrade to or add the color-matched Magic Trackpad. The M1 iMac comes alongside a redesigned Magic Keyboard, featuring an updated key layout and more rounded corners.
