Apple\u2019s long-awaited redesigned iMac is finally here for 2021 and it brings with it the impressive M1 chip, too. The price might have gone up, but a splash of colour and various upgrades mean this might be the most everyman\u2019s iMac yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Design & Build
\nSeven colours with two-tone finish
\nThinner than the original iPhone
\nA little too light
\nWriting about a new iMac design is a rare thing and is therefore one of the major talking points for this year\u2019s model. For 2021 we get an overhauled design with a modern completely flat body with a splash of colour, reminiscent of the early iMac G3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While I like the colour options, I\u2019m not totally sold on the two-tone finish. The bold striking colour on the back and edges looks amazing but this is paired with a soft pastel companion that I\u2019m not so keen on. Cables also sport this pale tone and the metal base and accessories mirror it in a metallic finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unless you have a mirror behind the iMac or it\u2019s going on a reception desk, you\u2019ll rarely see the darker colour which is a shame. There are seven colours to choose from including pink, green and orange so there should be something to suit everyone, but one of them is a basic silver option if you\u2019d rather something more plain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s worth noting that the Apple logo has gone from the chin below the screen which makes things look slightly plain and unfinished. You can also only have a white bezel around the display rather than opting for black.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019d rather have the darker colour everywhere and a black bezel but that\u2019s not the fun, family-orientated style Apple has gone for here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Viewing from the side, the new iMac looks stunning with its tablet-like design. It\u2019s only 11.4mm thick which is actually thinner than the original iPhone. It\u2019s so thin, Apple has had to move the headphone jack to the side, which is a happy enforced change if you ask me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
