Does it only come in a 24" configuration? It'd be nice to upgrade from my 9 year old 27" iMac but I'd hate to have a smaller screen.

- dangwu 5y agoYeah. I really wish they went with 27” if they’re going to pick just one.
- aldanor 5y agoAnd even 27'' is kind of small at this day and age, especially for detailed work. 30-32+ would be absolutely awesome.
- minimaxir 5y agoThere will likely be a more powerful 27-30" iMac with a stronger chip in the fall.
- nichch 5y agoThe resolution jump may be worth it alone, to be honest.
- KptMarchewa 5y agoDidn't previous 27' came with 5K?
- nichch 5y agoNot 9 years ago. The late 2012 27” are 1440p.
- kbob 5y agoThe new iMac has lower resolution (4480x2520, 218 dpi) than the old 27" iMac (5120x2880, 218 dpi).
- nichch 5y agoThe GP said their iMac is 9 years old.
- sudhirj 5y ago27" / 32" will likely come with the M2 / next-gen chip, and probably have the XDR level display built in, maybe optional on the iMac Pro type model.
- ArkanExplorer 5y ago24" devices are tiny - I'd consider 27" to be a reasonable size and 32" to be optimal for detailed work or for aged eyes. I suspect this device is targeted towards kids and students (as evidenced by the colours and the choice of voice actor), and Apple wants adults and workers to buy a (more expensive) future iMac Pro with a bigger screen.
- saagarjha 5y agoThis is a stupid take–24" is fine for plenty of professional workers.
- agloeregrets 5y agoiMac 30 inch is coming later this year as a pro product.
- aldanor 5y agoWith 10Gbe and 128+ GB like the previous Intel iMac 27''? That's the question...
