This post is created in a 27″ iMac…..
It’s a 2019 model and it works just fine….
But?
I ‘m saving up for the next 27″ iMac which I’m sure will be more like 30″….
I know the Apple community went into mouring when the rumor’s hit that Apple wasn’t gonnan have a new iMacPro, the name we thought was for next ‘big Willy’ iMac…
But in my sniffing around I ran into the Alex Blake piece linked below that has given hope for a new Apple Desktop….
At its Peek Performance event in March 2022, Apple unveiled an all-new Mac Studio and accompanying Studio Display. It also revealed that the Mac Pro was the last Mac yet to make the transition to Apple Silicon. For all intents and purposes, that seemed to be the death knell for the future of larger iMacs.
That’s probably true for the iMac Pro, at least. As this was always a separate product line from the standard iMac, Apple’s announcement would seem to confirm that the iMac Pro will not get a new release date any time soon. It doesn’t necessarily hold true for the iMac, though. Since the 24-inch iMac already comes with an Apple Silicon chip — and the 27-inch iMac would therefore be considered part of this family — it leaves open the possibility of a new 27-inch iMac coming out while still conforming to Apple’s statement that the Mac Pro was the only Mac waiting for an Apple Silicon chip.
And there’s another clue. On its website, Apple lists the 24-inch iMac as “iMac 24.” If it was going to be the only size option in the iMac family, it seems likely Apple would just call it “iMac,” as there would be no need for a differentiator. The inclusion of the measurements in the name could be read as an implication that there is another size on the way.
If that’s correct, when could we see the 27-inch iMac make a splash? Well, now that the Mac Studio and its accompanying 27-inch Studio Display are out in the wild, we can’t see a 27-inch iMac on 2022’s horizon unless something very surprising were to happen. Indeed, reliable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo doesn’t believe the high-end iMac will come out until 2023. With a new 27-inch display just launched, Apple will want to give it some breathing space, which could mean a 2023 launch date for the larger iMac (if it comes out at all)…
