Beyond imagination! IMac — redefining the iMac product generation
The M1 chip has made a noticeable difference. The new iMac is completely new from the inside out. It has an incredibly thin design, a 24-inch 4.5K retina display, and one of the best speakers, microphones and cameras on a Mac. Seven colors dazzle color is amazing debut, set Apple’s distinct style in a suit, more because of the arrival of M1 chip and further sublimation.
The M1 chip is the most powerful Apple has ever built, and macOS Big Sur is an ultra-advanced desktop operating system. Together, they have made the iMac more powerful than ever in terms of performance, energy efficiency, and safety. The iMac wakes up almost instantly from sleep mode, apps start fast and fly, and the system is smooth and enjoyable to use. It has a CPU up to 85% faster than the standard 21.5-inch iMac, graphics up to twice as fast, and fast code compilation or real-time Photo editing using apps like Xcode and Affinity Photo. And even that kind of grunt work can be done quickly, coolly, quietly. The power of hardware, software, and chip co-design has been demonstrated!

In addition to the iMac’s seven color schemes, the accompanying peripheral mouse, keyboard and trackpad also come in matching colors. If you want a complete set of iMac family products, you need to buy 7 * 4 = 28 products. Are you ready?
Touch ID can now be used with a keyboard on a desktop, which is very convenient.
