Detailed Product Description

Apple supercharges a 24‑inch iMac with a new M3 chip. The world’s best all-in-one gets even better, featuring the M3 chip and up to 2x faster performance in its strikingly thin design with an expansive 4.5K Retina display.

Design and Display

iMac 24-inch m3 chip retains its remarkably thin design and comes in a spectrum of seven vibrant colors.  The striking design of the iMac is made possible thanks to Apple silicon — with a big leap in performance from M3. The 4.5K Retina display boasts 11.3 million pixels and supports over a billion colors. With True Tone technology, it adapts to the ambient lighting for a more natural viewing experience. The actual diagonal screen size is 23.5 inches and features a resolution of 4480-by-2520 pixels at 218 pixels per inch.

With its expansive 24‑inch Retina display, the iMac offers a brilliant canvas for multitasking, immersive movies and games, and so much more. The display’s 4.5K resolution delivers ultraclear detail and shines with 500 nits of brightness. That’s five times the resolution of and nearly 70 percent brighter than the best-selling 24‑inch all‑in‑one PC. And P3 wide color brings whatever you’re watching to life in over a billion colors. No matter what you do, it will look incredible on iMac.

External Monitor Support

While the iMac itself has a built-in 23.5-inch display, it also supports an additional external monitor. Due to the base M3 chip’s limitations, you can connect one external display with up to 6K resolution at 60Hz3.

Camera

The iMac comes with a 1080p FaceTime HD camera. It features an advanced image signal processor with computational video capabilities.

By far, it is the best camera system ever in an iMac. With a built‑in image signal processor, M3 boosts picture quality by analyzing and enhancing each pixel at over a trillion operations per second. This enables superior noise reduction, incredible dynamic range, and more balanced image exposure — so you look your best in any light. M3 also works together with macOS to keep the spotlight on you with Presenter Overlay, which elevates your presence by including you on top of the content you are sharing when on a video call.

Studio-quality mics

They are well-installed for high-quality conversations. Whether you are on a video call, recording a podcast, or live streaming, the microphones on the iMac make sure your voice comes through crisp and clear. The studio‑quality three‑mic array is designed to reduce feedback, and beamforming technology helps drastically reduce background noise — so everyone hears you, not what is going on around you.

Performance

Powered by the M3 chip, the new iMac delivers impressive performance gains to designers, gamers and highly demanding office work.

Operating System

The iMac runs macOS, which is the most advanced desktop operating system. With macOS Sonoma, you will experience enhanced video presentations, improved gaming performance, and personalized features.

Chipset

Apple’s iMac 24-inch is powered by the Apple M3 chip.

  • It features an 8-core CPU with 4 performance cores and 4 efficiency cores.
  • The GPU is a 10-core GPU.
  • The M3 chip also supports hardware-accelerated ray tracing.
  • It includes a 16-core Neural Engine for machine learning tasks.
  • The memory bandwidth is 100GB/s.

Get it all done with flying colors. M3 and macOS bring the latest and most advanced technologies to iMac, delivering exceptional levels of performance, efficiency, and security. Built using a next‑generation process, M3 lets you zip through hundreds of browser tabs, build a multimedia‑rich pitch deck, and even explore new worlds with jaw‑dropping graphics. It’s up to four times faster than the best-selling 24-inch all-in-one PC with the latest Intel Core i7 processor. And it stays cool and quiet, even while tackling intense workloads. That’s the power of hardware, software, and silicon — all designed together.

The M3 Chip+ OS offer:

  • Up to 2x faster than the previous generation with M1.
  • Up to 2.5x faster than popular Intel-based 27-inch models.
  • 4x faster than the most powerful 21.5-inch model.
Memory Specs

The base model of the iMac 24-inch M3 Chip comes with 8GB of unified memory. You can have it configured and upgraded to 16GB or 24GB of unified memory, at an additional cost.

Graphics and Creativity

The next-generation GPU in the M3 chip supports hardware-accelerated mesh shading and ray tracing, enhancing gaming experiences and speeding up three-dimensional design and creation. Additionally, there is a Media Engine that supports hardware-accelerated decoding for formats like H.264, HEVC, ProRes, and ProRes RAW.

Versatility

With its best-in-class camera, speakers, and microphones, along with macOS Sonoma, the iMac with M3 is perfect for everyone—from families and small businesses to aspiring creatives, students, and gamers. Whether you are multitasking, editing high-resolution photos, or playing games, the iMac with M3 handles it all with ease.

Connections and Ports

Enjoy blazingly fast Thunderbolt ports and speedier file transfers thanks to Wi‑Fi 6E.

The device comes with:

  • Two Thunderbolt / USB 4 ports (supports DisplayPort, Thunderbolt 3, USB 4, and USB 3.1 Gen 2).
  • A 3.5 mm headphone jack with advanced support for high-impedance headphones.
  • Gigabit Ethernet port.
  • Two USB 3 ports (up to 10Gb/s).
  • A power connector that easily attaches via magnets, with a color-matched woven cable.

Six-speaker sound system

Enjoy audio that fills a room. iMac brings incredible, room‑filling audio to any space. Two pairs of force‑cancelling woofers create rich, deep bass — and each is balanced with a high‑performance tweeter for a massive soundstage that takes music, movies, and more to the next level. iMac also supports Spatial Audio with Dolby Atmos. And when you combine that with a 4.5K Retina display, it’s like bringing the whole theater home.

Pros and Cons of 24‑inch iMac with a new M3 chip

Pros
  • Thin and Light: The iMac maintains its sleek and thin design, making it easy to fit into any workspace.
  • Performance Boost: The M3 chip delivers a noticeable performance bump over its M1-powered predecessor. Whether you are multitasking, editing photos, or playing games, the M3 chip’s 8-core/10-core CPU and 10-core GPU provide impressive speed and capabilities.
  • Lovely 4.5K Display: The iMac’s 4.5K Retina display boasts 11.3 million pixels and over a billion colors, providing a visually stunning experience when working or enjoying a movie or game
  • Great Audio: The iMac features solid audio quality, making it enjoyable for media consumption and video calls. The studio standard mic and 6-speaker sound system make it superfluous.
  • A Solid 1080p Webcam: The built-in webcam ensures clear video quality for virtual meetings and conferences.
Cons
  • Design Remains the Same: While the iMac’s design is attractive, it remains largely unchanged from previous models, including peripherals like the Magic Mouse.
  • Limited Connectivity: The base model configuration comes with only two Thunderbolt/USB 4 ports, which may be insufficient for users with multiple peripherals.
  • Storage Options: The base model includes 256GB of storage, which might be restrictive for users with large files or extensive media libraries. Configurations come at an extra cost.
  • No Keyboard Backlighting: Unlike some other models, the iMac lacks keyboard backlighting, which could be inconvenient in low-light environments.
  • Lack of Height or Angle Adjustment: The iMac’s fixed stand does not allow for height or angle adjustments, potentially affecting ergonomics.
  • No USB-C for Accessories: The absence of USB-C ports may limit compatibility with certain accessories.

Verdict

The Apple 24-inch iMac with the M3 chip is a solid choice for everyday tasks, creative work, and entertainment. If you prioritize performance, sleek design, and a stunning display, it is worth considering.  The display, Chip, OS, Camera, Speakers, connectivity options, and keyboard all work together for a seamless, uncompromised experience as you immerse in productivity or some entertainment. However, assess your storage needs and external connectivity requirements before purchasing.
