The new iMac launched at the Apple April 2021 event comes with the brand new M1 chipset. It also comes in multiple colors, harkening back to the G3 iMac with its transparent color case.


 

There are seven colors available: green, yellow, orange, red, purple, blue, and silver. The keyboard, mouse, and optional trackpad have a color finish that matches the iMac.

The new iMacs are much thinner than any other previous models. Now, the design is just 11.5mm thick, looking like a giant iPad or iPhone. The 4.5K display is also bigger, with the entry-tier model packing a 24-inch screen. At the top, you’ll find a 1080p webcam, which is twice as good as the 720p model on older models.

Of course, there’s no standalone GPU on offer, with all graphics handled by that M1 chip. The chip does support iPhone and iPad apps though, just like the current M1-powered Macs.

The new 2021 iMac starts at $1,299 (119,900 INR) and comes in four of the seven colors. You’ll need to upgrade to the $1,499 model to get all the color options. You can pre-order the device on April 30 and it will hit general sale in the second half of May.
