I have had an old Apple iMac for many years and it had become very slow and too old to update with the latest software. I was reluctant to move over to a new one as I was not sure how easy it would be to set up and transfer all of my data. After much dithering I finally decided to take the plunge, only to then find that the 2023 model was out of stock. However, I was so glad it was, as the 2024 model came out soon after and I placed my order ready for the launch date, settling on the original silver colour. The delivery was seamless and soon after unpacking it I was set up and away. Although I knew my old one was slow, I think I had just got used to it taking ages to warm up and "join the party" - this one is outstanding - it is so quick and it linked to my wireless ... MoreI have had an old Apple iMac for many years and it had become very slow and too old to update with the latest software.

I am particularly pleased that the wireless keyboard and mouse no longer need batteries and there is a wire for charging - I hope that I get sufficient notice when they are low and they don't both need charging at the same time as there is only 1 cable. Another great product with the usual high JL standards.

Although not the cheapest I feel this iMac provides very good value for money. If money is tight then by all means go for the M4 Mac mini, but personally after moving from an (Intel) iMac to a Mac mini due to the screen not being 'big enough', I missed many of the things on the iMac - the sound is amazing for the size of the speakers, and so nice to have lost the cable clutter.Although I had a decent 32 inch screen, actually this screen is fine; I did try connecting my 32 inch screen and it works fine with two displays, but of course this creates some cable clutter. I feel this model is the one to go for with the fingerprint sensor on the keyboard particularly being useful.I haven't used the CenterStage camera yet, but certainly video conferencing is far nicer ... MoreAlthough not the cheapest I feel this iMac provides very good value for money.

The M4 is no doubt a great product, but the migration from an old Mac was not so easy. Actually it turned out to be easy, once I finally had help from a senior programmer at Apple, but to get a hold of one, turned out to be a lengthy process. That should be easier. I had a fabulous new computer but spent anxious 4 days before I got the help that I needed. The iStore would have helped, but trecking there with 2 iMacs and all the cabling that goes with it is very difficult at my age. Online help (audio or video) should be offered right at the point of purchase in my opinion. I felt let down. But all ok now. And this is something they can easily improve.

Purchased to replace a 10 year old model which was working perfectly but slow and no longer getting security updates. ( obsolete in Apple World) Improvement in speed, clarity and sound is amazing and better than expected. Slightly larger screen is noticeable. Transferring from old to new was simple and very quick using Migration Assistant.Advertised as being touch pad log in but this was not the case.Apple Maps update is swamped by numerous advertising websites mainly in USA so totally pointless.Required a multi adaptor to connect scanner, disc player, tablet etc as only two usb C ports and no memory card slot.
This is the first iMac I’ve ever owned. I’ve had a Mac laptop some years ago, before they were the standard, but I thought I’d give it another shot. Glad I did. The way all Apple products blend into the ecosystem is a competitive advantage over other computers. Not only is this computer fast, it has the looks to match. I am doing music on it and haven’t even tapped into its potential yet. I have had no hiccups in performance yet and don’t expect to for some time. I almost bought the Mac mini but realized how much I would spend for the other accessories I’d need. The colors are an added touch of style.
It's been absolutely incredible. We initially purchased the M3 iMac a couple of months ago due to hiccups due to the shortage of memory. We waited 3 months for the new M4 ones, and it was certainly worth it. It's bleeding edge; it hasn't slowed down or throttled once. Performance aside, it's an amazing package. The 24-inch screen is flawless for our needs, with colors that pop and an amazing resolution. Not to mention the speakers, microphone, and updated webcam. Additionally, Apple has finally made the long-overdue change of Lightning to USB-C on the accessories, which is nice. Overall, it's a spectacular computer that honestly has become the centerpiece of our living room. (Did I mention this was proofreaded by Apple Intelligence?)
I absolutely love this Mac. I've owned 3 Mac's for almost 20 years, and this one is the best, as it should be. I know they are expensive, but so are the high end Window machines. There're also less hacked. The 1st one I have for 10 years and I got a new one only because the CPU was too old for the next OS. The 2nd one lasted 6 years with the last 4-5 months getting slower by the day. I believe the processor was going bad because I tried everything; removing and reinstalling the OS software-twice-, checking for viruses, reinstalling slow apps, constantly restarting-which did help somewhat- and every other trick offered on line, included hitting it. This new one is 2" larger, Has Apple Intelligence, uses USB-C ports, has a better chip-M4- larger memory, and, although ... MoreI absolutely love this Mac.

This new one is 2" larger, Has Apple Intelligence, uses USB-C ports, has a better chip-M4- larger memory, and, although smaller, a SSD HD. It is great to have an immediate response when hitting RETURN, when before, you just watched the spinning color wheel. And I got it on sale, $200 off, with $30 trade-in for the old one. The best time to buy is around Dec, when the latest one comes out.
After more than a month of use, the Apple 24 iMac with the M4 CPU has surpassed my expectations. I can make drawings and multi-tab without any latency thanks to the exceptional performance. I've also noticed this iMac is faster than my previous one which I appreciate. The gorgeous 4.5K Retina display brings out the color and detail in photos and videos which I love.Additionally, I adore the sleek design, and the silver finish complements my workstation flawlessly. External speakers are not necessary because the built-in speakers are clean and loud.My only complaint is that there aren't any USB-A connections, so I will have to purchase an additional converter. All things considered, though, this iMac offers outstanding performance and value.
Got this for my daughter and she loved it! She was thrilled about the color choice. Teal and purple are her favorite colors but we went with purple since her room color theme is teal. It was a littel pricey but these machines last, plus it was on SALE for the holidays to it was the perfect opportunity to pull the trigger and purchase. It will replace a MAC desktop from 2011. The keyboard and mouse are rechargable and require a USB-C cable for charging. One USB-C cable was provided with the package. The keyboard is purple and the mouse is purple on the bottom. Both the mouse and keyboard are connected to the desktop by bluetooth.
