Which iMac should I buy?
With the introduction of the colorful 24-inch iMac, Apple simplified the desktop purchasing decision for many customers. Apple shifted this thin and light all-in-one desktop to M4 in 2024, but customers seeking discounts can still find M1 and M3 models or even some aging Intel models at some retailers.
Anyone shopping new, the choice is easier since Apple only offers one option — M4.
We can't recommend Intel machines since Apple could choose to stop supporting updates in macOS at any point. However, if you know you need Intel for certain workflows, these machines still exist at some retailers at steep discounts.

The 24-inch iMac is the official successor to the 21.5-inch iMac and 27-inch iMac and has been updated with a 4.5K display, M-series processor, and fresh new color options.
