Apple has finally released its long overdue update to the 24-inch iMac all-in-one PC. The Cupertino’s tech giant unveiled a new 24-inch iMac at Apple’s “Scary Fast” keynote event early morning today.
Notably, Apple last updated the 24-inch iMac with M1 in 2021. It skipped the M2 processor and directly jumped to the M3 chip. The design of the 24-inch iMac remains consistent, featuring its slim profile, white bezels, and vibrant colour choices. The ports and colour-matched accessories remain the same, and it still uses a Lightning cable for connectivity.
