Apple updates 'Magic' accessories to USB-C, included with M4 iMac

On Monday, Apple opened preorders for the brand-new M4 iMac, which is set to ship out on November 8. Like the M1 and M3 iMacs before it, it will come in an array of fun colors — seven to be exact.

And, like its predecessors, the new iMac will ship with color-matched accessories. Buyers can choose between a standard Magic Keyboard or a Magic Keyboard with Touch ID and a numeric keypad for $80 more.

Buyers will also be able to select either a color-matched Magic Mouse or Magic Trackpad. The Magic Trackpad option increases the price by $50.

The new accessories will feature USB-C ports rather than the M1 iMac's lightning ports. This has been done to bring the device into compliance with the European Union's requirement that consumer electronics must use a common charger by 2024.

It will also come with a color-matched power cable as well as a color-matched USB-C to USB-C cable for charging the accessories.

Like the M1, there is no option to purchase the color-matched accessories standalone, so you'll need to grab them at checkout. There also doesn't appear to be a way to select both the Magic Mouse and the Magic Trackpad.

However, Apple has updated its standalone Magic accessories to USB-C. The accessories are available in white or black.

The new Magic Keyboard that features Touch ID and a numeric keypad is available for $199.00. The new Magic Trackpad is available for $149.00, while the new Magic Mouse can be purchased for $99.99.

Currently, the standalone accessories are expected to ship out by October 31.
